Method and apparatus for the transmission of short data bursts in CDMA/HDR networks

A method and apparatus for the transmission of short data bursts in CDMA / HDR networks. Dormant access terminals are assigned to a common traffic channel and rate group by an access point. The access point then informs the access terminals of the assigned common traffic channels and rate groups. The access point then transmits short data bursts to the dormant access terminals using the assigned common traffic channels and rate groups. If an access terminal fails to acknowledge receipt of a short data burst, then the access terminal is re-assigned to a new common traffic channel and rate group and transmission of the short data bursts is re-attempted. If an access terminal fails to acknowledge receipt of a short data burst more than a predetermined number of times, then the access terminal is placed in an active mode of operation. The transmission of short data bursts may be further assigned to time slots within the common traffic channels and rate groups in order to conserve the resources of the access terminals.

Programmable optical vector modulator and method for use in coherent optical communications

A transmitter comprising a programmable optical vector modulator and method for coherent optical signal communication. The transmitter includes a transmitter laser whose output is coupled by way of an optical fiber to an amplitude modulator. The output of the amplitude modulator is coupled by way of a length of optical fiber to a phase modulator. The phase modulator generates a modulated light output from the transmitter. Amplitude modulation is achieved by inputting data and a data clock signal to amplitude symbol mapping logic whose outputs are selectively weighted, summed, amplified and input to the amplitude modulator to amplitude modulate the output of the transmitter laser. Phase modulation is achieved by inputting the modulating data and the data clock signal to phase angle symbol mapping logic whose outputs are selectively weighted, summed, amplified, delayed to synchronize with the arrival of the light from the amplitude modulator, and input to the phase modulator to phase modulate the amplitude modulated output of the transmitter laser. The programmability of the vector modulator allows the transmission of an M-ary modulation format that maximizes the data transmission for a given optical dynamic range and bit error rate target. Also, the programmability allows for rapid change in modulation format to maximize data transmission for changes in optical dynamic range and bit error rate target. The M-ary constellation may be predistorted to compensate for equipment piece part variation and fiber nonlinear effects; in particular the effect commonly known as “self-phase modulation”.
