Limited duty cycle fdd system

Номер: US20120002578A1
Автор: Peter Gaal, Tingfang JI
Принадлежит: Qualcomm Inc

Acknowledgment bundling has been defined for Long Term Evolution (LTE) Time Division Duplex (TDD) systems due to asymmetric DL/UL partitioning. In the case of Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) with a limited uplink (UL) duty cycle, there may be asymmetry associated with a downlink transmission and an associated uplink acknowledgment. For example, there may be a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) asymmetry. Interference between downlink and uplink transmissions may be a factor contributing to the limited UL duty cycle in an FDD system. For an FDD system having a limited mobile transmission duty cycle, both DL and UL performance may be significantly degraded without proper mitigation techniques. According to certain embodiments of the present disclosure, various HARQ and scheduling techniques may be utilized for minimizing loss due to the limited UL duty cycle.

Network Coexistence through Active Superframe Interleaving

Автор: Jin-Meng Ho
Принадлежит: Texas Instruments Inc

Embodiments of the invention provide coexistence among independent networks through active superframe interleaving. Network hubs and devices exchange signals over a selected channel only during active superframes of their network. Network hubs broadcast coexistence information during their active superframes. A hub of network B desiring to use the selected channel first attempts to fit its active superframes within network A's inactive superframes, if available. If network A is not providing inactive superframes, then the network B hub determines whether network A is willing to coexist using active superframe interleaving on the channel. If so, the network B hub sends an interleave request message to the network A hub, which may accept the message and send back an interleave response message. The network A hub then offers new inactive superframes, and the network B hub adapts the transmissions and receptions of network B to fit within these inactive superframes.

Sub-channelization with power boost

Номер: US20130010749A1
Автор: Chu-Rui Chang, Jacques Fluet
Принадлежит: Individual

A method and system are provided for boosting power for a communications link between a base station and a user device, or user equipment, in a cellular communications network. In one embodiment, the communications link is a downlink between the base station and the user device established via a downlink channel having a full channel bandwidth including a number of sub-carrier frequencies. The base station determines whether a power boost is needed for a downlink to the user device. If so, the base station uses a subset of the sub-carrier frequencies from the full channel bandwidth as a reduced bandwidth channel, or sub-channel, for the downlink to the user device such that signal power is concentrated on the sub-carrier frequencies of the reduced channel bandwidth rather than spread across the sub-carrier frequencies of the full channel bandwidth. As a result, a power boost for the downlink is provided.
