PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide frequency-independent eigensteering in MISO and MIMO systems.SOLUTION: A correlation matrix is computed for a MIMO channel based on channel response matrices and decomposed to obtain NS frequency-independent steering vectors for NS spatial channels of the MIMO channel. For main path eigensteering, a data symbol stream is transmitted on the best spatial channel for the main propagation path of the MIMO channel. For receiver eigensteering, a data symbol stream is steered toward a receive antenna based on a steering vector obtained for that receive antenna. For all eigensteering schemes, a matched filter is derived for each receive antenna based on the steering vector(s) and channel response vectors for the receive antenna.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To carry out MAC processing for efficient use of a high throughput system that is backward compatible with an existing system. SOLUTION: In one aspect, a data transmission structure comprises consolidated polling and one or more frames transmitted in accordance with the consolidated polling. In another aspect, a Time Division Duplexing (TDD) data transmission structure comprises a pilot, consolidated polling, and zero or more access points to remote station frames in accordance with the consolidated polling. In one aspect, frames are transmitted sequentially with no or substantially reduced interframe spacing. In another aspect, a guard interframe spacing may be introduced between frames transmitted from different sources, or with substantially different power levels. In another aspect, a single preamble is transmitted in association with one or more frames. In another aspect, a block acknowledgement is transmitted subsequent to the transmission of one or more sequential frames. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an MAC processing technique for using a high throughput system having backward compatibility with various types of existing system efficiently. SOLUTION: In one mode, a data frame is formed to include a common portion required for transmission in a format which is received at an access point and various stations such as a remote station.

In other mode, an access point schedules allocation according to a data display included in the common portion of a data frame being transmitted from one remote station to other remote station. In other mode, a first station transmits a reference to a second station, the second station measures the reference and creates feedback therefrom. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide pilot transmission schemes suitable for use in wireless multi-carrier (e.g., OFDM) communication systems.SOLUTION: These pilot transmission schemes may utilize frequency orthogonality, time orthogonality, or both frequency and time orthogonality to achieve orthogonality among pilots transmitted by multiple base stations on a downlink. Frequency orthogonality is achieved by transmitting the pilots on disjoint sets of subbands. Time orthogonality is achieved by transmitting the pilots using multiple different orthogonal codes (e.g., Walsh codes). The pilots may also be scrambled with multiple different scrambling codes, which are used to randomize pilot interference and to enable identification of transmitters of these pilots.

Frequency orthogonality is achieved by transmitting pilots on disjoint sets of subbands. Time orthogonality is achieved by transmitting pilots using a plurality of different orthogonal codes. The pilots may also be scrambled with a plurality of different scrambling codes, which are used to randomize pilot interference and to enable identification of transmitters of these pilots. Further, pilot interference is estimated and then subtracted from received symbols to obtain pilot-canceled symbols having improved quality. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide frequency-independent eigensteering in MISO and MIMO systems. SOLUTION: For principal mode and multi-mode eigensteering, a correlation matrix is computed for a MIMO channel on the basis of channel response matrices to obtain steering vectors. ND data symbol streams are transmitted on best spatial channels using steering vectors, where for N D =1 for principal mode eigensteering and N D >1 for multi-mode eigensteering. For main path eigensteering, a data symbol stream is transmitted on the best spatial channel for the main propagation path of the MIMO channel. For receiver eigensteering, a data symbol stream is steered toward a receive antenna on the basis of a steering vector obtained for that receive antenna. For all eigensteering schemes, a matched filter is derived for each receive antenna on the basis of the steering vector(s) and channel response vectors for the receive antenna.

SOLUTION: A first signal is transmitted according to an existing transmission format to reserve a portion of a shared medium, and communication according to a second transmission format transpires during the reserved portion. A communications device may compete for access on the existing system and then communicate according to a new class communication protocol, with one or more remote communication devices during the access period. A device may request access (2505) to a shared medium according to the existing protocol, and upon grant of access, the device may communicate with (2555, 2560) or facilitate communication between one or more remote stations, in accordance with the new protocol.
