In a 60 Hz WGA wireless network, not all frames with the duration field are received by a STA in a WGA network because of directional antennas. Therefore, a NAV Timer cannot account for the reserved duration of the channel by only updating with the longest duration field received. A STA can receive two frames each with a source and destination addresses and update the NAV Timer by comparing the received addresses to overcome such problem. Further, a STA can receive one frame with a source and destination addresses and update the NAV Timer by comparing the received addresses with the NAVSRC and NAVDST values.

Принадлежит: Aware Inc

Messages transmitted between a receiver and a transmitter are used to maximize a communication data rate. In particular, a multicarrier modulation system uses messages that are sent from the receiver to the transmitter to exchange one or more sets of optimized communication parameters. The transmitter then stores these communication parameters and when transmitting to that particular receiver, the transmitter utilizes the stored parameters in an effort to maximize the data rate to that receiver. Likewise, when the receiver receives packets from that particular transmitter, the receiver can utilize the stored communication parameters for reception.

Автор: Avinash Joshi, John M. Belcea, Yuechun Chu

Принадлежит: Motorola Inc

A method is provided to determine optimal data rate and packet length in mobile networks. The method directly determines the optimal packet length (L) and data rate (D), which allows fast convergence in the mobile channel. The method automatically identifies and quantifies channel conditions, as well as adjusts parameters according to changes of channel conditions. A variable (Channel condition Index (CCI)) is abstracted from simulations and then used to describe and quantify the impact of three components of channel conditions: signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), multipath environment and velocity. Based on packet completion rate (PCR) status, the channel condition is identified in terms of CCI value. Once CCI is identified, the model of effective throughput G is directly optimized to locate the best packet length (L) and data rate (D).

Принадлежит: InterDigital Patent Holdings Inc

Methods and apparatus are described for compressing channel state information (CSI) in time-domain based on path location information for CSI feedback. Downlink (DL) CSI is compressed in the time domain and fed back by not sending the multipath location information, or sending at a very low rate. In one method, a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) selects the strongest multipath components based on channel characteristics. The multipath components are quantized in the time domain via direct or vector based quantization. The base station reconstructs a channel impulse response from the fed back quantized multipath components and applies same to precoding processing. In another method, the WTRU feeds back information associated with a narrowband portion(s) of a system spectrum. The selected narrowband portion(s) have sufficient density over time to allow good precoding per subband or across the system spectrum. Short term feedback may be augmented with long term channel information.

A method and system is disclosed for setting up, modifying and tearing down an up-stream communication session in a basic service set (BSS) in a wireless local area network (WLAN), so that the communication session has a defined Quality of Service (QoS). Regarding setting up an up-stream communication session, a first Path message and a first Resv message (Path/Resv message) of a RSVP protocol are detected at a designated subnet bandwidth manager (DSBM) in a station having a point coordinator (PC). The first Resv message originates from a RSVP agent of a host outside the BSS, and is a request for setting up an up-stream session between a source non-PC station in the BSS and the PC station. A QoS parameter set and a classifier from the first Path/Resv message for the session are extracted at the DSBM. 1.

Random access operation is performed under a communication environment in which a plurality of communication modes having different transmission rate coexist with small overhead. A high-grade communication station spoofs information of a packet length and a rate in a decoding portion so that a value of (packet length)/(rate) corresponds to a duration where the communication is hoped to be stopped. The other station receiving the spoofed information receives the rest of the packet with the designated rate during the interval designated by the value of (packet length)/(rate). In this case, the packet length and the rate are not those of actually transmitted packet so that this packet is discarded.

Hybrid congestion control

Номер: US20140003242A1

Автор: Sandor Racz, Szilveszter NÁDAS

Принадлежит: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson AB

A multi-mode congestion control is employed in a transport network interconnecting a radio access node and a control node of a communication network. The transport network employs a window-based state providing a window-based congestion control mode for a data flow. This mode involves notifying an application level transport protocol implemented in a sending source of the communication network of any detected congestion event. If a congestion event in the transport network is detected a switch to a rate-based state is performed. The rate-based state provides a rate-based congestion control mode involving transmitting a rate-reducing message from the radio access node to the control node to trigger a reduction in the bitrate of the data flow in response to the detected congestion event.
