Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce interruption in content distribution when user equipment (UE) moves from one cell to the other, or when the distribution of a content is changed from Point-to-Point (PTP) connection to Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) connection in the same service cell by improving the continuity of service. SOLUTION: A service data unit (SDU) is segmented to any row of a coding matrix, and an external header including a sequence number is added to each row of a coded coder packet for formatting to a composite code block for transmission. A reception unit having received the composite code block performs the overlapping detection and re-sequencing of a block by the sequence number, and then removes the sequence number to decode an information row for reconstruction.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide techniques for transmitting notifications for broadcast and multicast services. SOLUTION: To transmit notification indicators for broadcast and multicast services, a base station maps the services to random sequences based on their identifiers. The base station generates the random sequence for each service based on a hash function or a PN (pseudo-random number) generator and the service identifier. Each random sequence is associated with a specific location for sending a notification indicator in each frame. The locations for the notification indicator fors each random sequence are randomized with respect to the locations for the notification indicators for each remaining random sequence. This randomness characteristic reduces the likelihood of false alarm. For each service, the base station sets the notification indicators to the same notification value in each modification period. The base station transmits the notification indicator for each service at the random locations determined by the random sequence for the service. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To deliver data recovered by an HARQ entity in proper order to higher layers in a CDMA system.SOLUTION: Packets are received from an HARQ entity by a re-ordering entity and missing packets among the received packets are detected. Packets may be transmitted in a sequential order based on transmission sequence numbers (TSNs) assigned to the packets, and missing packets may be detected based on the TSNs of the received packets. Delivery of received packets later than the missing packets are stalled because higher layers expect data in-order. A determination is thereafter made whether each missing packet is subsequently received from the HARQ entity or lost, by successively eliminating HARQ channels that may be used to send the missing packet. Received packets previously stalled by each missing packet are delivered after the missing packet is determined to be lost or received.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide multi-media broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) in a wireless communications system. SOLUTION: In one aspect, processing data for transmission to a plurality of terminals are provided. Frames of information bits (which may have variable rates) are provided to a buffer implementing a matrix. The matrix is padded with padding bits based on a particular paging scheme to support variable frame rates. The frames are then coded based on a particular block code to provide parity bits. The frames of information bits and the parity bits are then transmitted to the terminals. In another aspect, a method is provided for controlling the transmit power of a data transmission to a plurality of terminals. TPC streams are received from the terminals and processed to obtain a stream of joint power control commands used to adjust the transmit power of the data transmission. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To deliver data recovered by an HARQ entity to a high-order layer in a CDMA system in correct order. SOLUTION: Packets are received from the HARQ entity by a rearranged entity, and a missing packet is detected among the received packets. The packets are transmitted according to an allocated transmission sequence number (TSN) in order, the missing packet is detected according to the TSN of the received packet. Since a high-order layer expects data in correct order, the transmission of packet received after the missing packet is stopped. Then, the HARQ channel used to transmit the missing packet is continuously removed, thereby, it is decided whether each missing packet is continuously received from the HARQ entity or lost. The received packet previously stopped by each missing packet is transmitted after it is decided whether the missing packet is lost or received. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable seamless delivery of content across cell borders and/or between different transmission schemes such as Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) and Point-to-Point (PTP).SOLUTION: Mechanisms for adjusting different streams and for recovering content from each data block during such transitions are also provided so that data is not lost during a transition. In addition, mechanisms for realigning data during decoding at a receiving terminal are also provided.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce interruption in content distribution caused by transition when user equipment (UE) moves from one cell to the other, or when the distribution of a content is changed from Point-to-Point (PTP) connection to Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) connection in the same service cell by improving the continuity of service. SOLUTION: An external code block to which an information block belongs and an information block to which a sequence number for identifying a position of a block is added are accumulated for reception, and then re-sequencing is performed by the sequence number to detect an overlapping information block. The overlapping block is excluded, the sequence number is removed from each information block, and then the external code block is received to use a redundant block for the regeneration of a missing information block.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To deliver data restored by a HARQ entity to a higher layer in a CDMA system in the correct order. SOLUTION: Packets are received from a HARQ entity by a rearrangement entity, and missing packets are detected from among the received packets. The packets are transmitted in order based on the transmission sequence numbers TSN allocated to the present packets, and the missing packets are detected based on received packet TSNs. Since higher order layers predict correct order data, delivery of receiving packets slower than the missing packets is stopped. By successively removing HARQ channels used for transmission of the missing packets, it is determined whether each of the missing packets has been continuously received or lost from HARQ entity. The receiving packet interrupted previously by each missing packet is delivered after determining whether the missing packet has been lost or received. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
