Multi-access terminal with capability for simultaneous connectivity to multiple communication channels
ActiveUS20060193295A1Improve reliabilityImprove behaviorNetwork traffic/resource managementTime-division multiplexTransceiverOperational system
An apparatus is disclosed for permitting a mobile terminal having multiple, heterogeneous network connections (e.g., multiple wired or wireless transceivers of various types) to set up and maintain virtual connections over multiple networks to either the same or to multiple destinations. The mobile terminal can “load-share” traffic, i.e., it can distribute segments of traffic over a full set of heterogeneous networks, significantly improving the reliability and availability of communications. In a first embodiment, a mobile terminal is configured with multiple radio frequency (RF) transceivers. Operating system software is provided for dynamically establishing and maintaining traffic flow for user applications over multiple communications paths, and for automatically adapting to variations in the networking environment, application traffic flow requirements, end user preferences, or mobility. In a second embodiment, a software-defined radio is used to implement the physical layer protocols for each desired network, eliminating the need for multiple transceivers.

Signal construction, detection and estimation for uplink timing synchronization and access control in a multi-access wireless communication system
InactiveUS6922388B1Improve estimation accuracyGreat rangeTime-division multiplexFrequency-division multiplexFourier transform on finite groupsCyclic prefix
Signal construction, detection and estimation techniques for use in uplink timing synchronization and access control in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) wireless system or other type of wireless communication system. In accordance with an illustrative embodiment of the invention, timing and access signals to be transmitted in designated timing and access intervals are constructed from orthogonal multitone signals. The multitone signals may be similar to multitone signals used in OFDM data transmission, except that a cyclic prefix associated with reception of the signals in a base station is extended to cover the timing errors of mobile stations not yet synchronized. The invention also provides design techniques which optimize the time resolvability and peak-to-average ratio of the multitone signals, an efficient fast Fourier transform (FFT) based technique for maximum likelihood timing estimation, and a robust linear filtering technique for averaging timing estimates from different synchronizations.

Method of Optimizing Routing of Demands in a Network
InactiveUS20070211637A1Optimizing routing of demandsError preventionFrequency-division multiplex detailsCore componentMulti protocol
The present invention relates to a method for optimization of demands in a packet switched communication network, especially, though not exclusively, for the optimization of demands in a Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) packet switched communication network. The present invention provides a method to enable network nodes, such as routers to be clustered into components, with the components organised in a hierarchical fashion, and with the network “core” at the root of this hierarchy. Demands that originate or terminate at components outside the core, but that traverse the core, are temporarily replaced by demands that originate and terminate within the core component. Having optimized the resulting set of demands it is then shown how to use the solution to satisfy the original demands. Multi-access networks cause some complications, and these are taken into account. Also, further demand replacement methods have been developed that take into account complex access situations, In particular, as mentioned, the case has been considered, where there is an existing partitioning of the routers, e.g. into core and access routers, which needs to be respected.

Reservation multiple access
InactiveUS6987982B2Fast disablingPower managementTransmission control/equalisingHash functionTelecommunications
A mobile station accesses a base station by randomly selecting a first reverse link common control channel from a set of random access channels. The mobile station transmits a request portion of an access probe over the first reverse link common control channel. The request portion is subject to collision with other signals. The request portion comprises a hash identification which is derived from a uniquely identifying number using a hash function. The hash identification quasi-uniquely identifies the mobile station. The mobile station receives a channel assignment message from the base station designating the hash identification and a reserved access channel. The reserved access channel provides communication with a low probability of contention. The mobile station transmits a message portion of the access probe over the reserved access channel.
