A system and method for managing the allocation of Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) timeslots in a network switch. The network switch may use a TDM cycle comprising multiple timeslots to manage shared resources and to schedule data ingress and egress through the ports of the current configuration, wherein each port is assigned one or more timeslots. The network switch may be reprogrammed to support one of multiple timeslot assignment schemes for one of multiple port configurations. The network switch may support configurations with varying numbers of ports, e.g. 8- and 16-port configurations.

A method and apparatus for spatial multiplexing and demultiplexing of radio signals. A multichannel transmitter and receiver is integrated in a base station and coupled to an antenna array. Using digital radio signals containing previously known or non-Gaussian sequences and arranged in frames, the spatial information about each mobile unit is estimated on the basis of the signal received by the receiver for the reception and transmission frequencies. This is done by known sequences or by blind source separation methods. The respective paths of each mobile unit with the power above a predetermined threshold is isolated by spatial filtering in the presence of multiple channel paths in order to provide spatial demultiplexing. Simultaneously, the intended signal is transmitted in the direction of the main path of each mobile unit while protecting each mobile unit from signals transmitted in the direction of other mobile units by spatial filtering with cancelling constraints in order to provide spatial multiplexing.

A time-spreading and wavelength-hopping optical encoder spreads each pulse in a modulated optical pulse signal into a predetermined pulse train including pulses with different wavelengths. The last pulse in the pulse train is delayed from the first pulse in the pulse train by an interval that is longer than the pulse period of the modulated optical pulse signal. Interference is avoided by dividing the pulse train into successive delay groups that are equal in length to the pulse period of the modulated data pulse signal, and having each wavelength appear in only one delay group. If encoders producing differently structured pulse trains are used in an optical multiplexer, interference is avoided by having the same wavelength appear only at different positions within the delay groups of different pulse trains. Long delays can be used to multiplex a relatively large number of channels, even at high transmission rates.
