Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for selecting an optimal transmission format so as to transmit to a single user and so as to transmit simultaneously to a plurality of users. SOLUTION: Priority information and channel state information associated with each user are used to determine the optimal transmission format. In particular, the information is used to maximize a prescribed objective function which increases a system throughput, maintaining fairness among users. Once the transmission format is determined, any unallocated system resources such as unused Walsh code or transmission power can be evenly or proportionately distributed among the users.

Abstract:
Systems and techniques for communications wherein a data packet is transmitted over at least one time slot from a transmission site, a value is computed from an initial value and information, the initial value being a function of the number of time slots of the data packet transmission, the value and the information is transmitted from the transmission site, the transmitted value and the information is received at a receiving site, the value from the received information is recalculated, and the number of time slots of the data packet transmission is determined from the calculated and recalculated values. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.
Abstract:
Aparato (2210), que comprende: un procesador para generar una lista (2220A, 2220B) que comprende cero o más identificadores, estando la lista asociada a una primera estación (106, 106B), identificando cada uno de los identificadores una de una pluralidad de segundas estaciones (104) para el envío de un primer mensaje a la primera estación. caracterizado porque la lista comprende al menos uno de un conjunto activo de acuse de recibo (2320), un conjunto activo de control de velocidad (2350), y un conjunto activo de autorización (2340); y que comprende, además, un transmisor para transmitir un segundo mensaje (3000, 3030, 3060) a la primera estación, en el cual el procesador genera, además, el segundo mensaje que comprende cero o más identificadores de la lista, en el cual el segundo mensaje dirige la primera estación para añadir un identificador a, o eliminar un identificador de, una lista de identificadores almacenados en la primera estación
Abstract:
Un procedimiento de comunicaciones que comprende: transmitir un paquete de datos en al menos un intervalo de tiempo desde un sitio de transmisión; calcular un valor a partir de un valor inicial y de información, siendo el valor inicial función del número de intervalos de tiempo de la transmisión del paquete de datos; transmitir el valor y la información desde el sitio de transmisión; recibir el valor y la información transmitidos en un sitio de recepción; recalcular el valor a partir de la información recibida; y determinar el número de intervalos de tiempo de la transmisión del paquete de datos a partir de los valores calculados y recalculados.

Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein address the need in the art for an extended acknowledgment/rate control channel. In one aspect, an acknowledgment command and a rate control command are combined to form a combined command. In another aspect, the combined command is generated in accordance with a constellation of points, each point corresponding to a pair consisting of a rate control command and an acknowledgment command. In yet another aspect, the points of the constellation are designed to provide the desired probability of error for the respective command pairs. In yet another aspect, a common rate control command is transmitted along with a combined or dedicated rate control command. Various other aspects are also presented. These aspects have the benefit of reduced overhead while providing acknowledgment and rate control to single remote stations and/or groups of remote stations.
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein address the need in the art for efficient management of grant, acknowledgement, and rate control channels. In one aspect, a list associated with a first station is generated or stored, the list comprising zero or more identifiers, each identifier identifying one of a plurality of second stations for sending a message to the first station. In another aspect, sets of lists for one or more first stations are generated or stored. In yet another aspect, the messages may be acknowledgements, rate control commands, or grants. In yet another aspect, messages comprising one or more identifiers in the list are generated. Various other aspects are also presented. These aspects have the benefit of reduced overhead while managing grant, acknowledgment and rate control messaging for one or more remote stations.
