20120269141 | PROVIDING SERVICES ACCORDING TO SUBSCRIPTION STATUS OF USER EQUIPMENT - Provided are a femtocell base station and a method for providing different levels of service according to a user's subscription. The femtocell base station may include a determination unit and an IP request unit. The determination unit may be configured to determine whether user equipment coupled to the femtocell base station is a closed subscriber group (CSG) member or a non-CSG member based on subscription information of the user equipment. The IP request unit may be configured to allocate a private IP address to user equipment determined as the CSG-member and to allocate a public IP address to user equipment determined as the non-CSG member. | 2012-10-25 |
20120269142 | Doppler adaptation using pilot patterns within single user, multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications - Doppler adaptation using pilot patterns within single user, multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. Within a communication system employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signaling, pilots may be adaptively and/or selectively located at different respective sub-carrier or tone locations within different respective symbols based on one or more patterns. In some implementations, decimation may also be performed such that not necessarily all respective tone or sub-carrier locations are covered within one particular group. Multiple respective groups may be employed to cover all possible tone or sub-carrier locations with at least one pilot over a particular number of symbols. In a receiver communication device operating using such decimation, interpolation over the decimated set of tones or sub-carriers may be made to effectuate channel estimate updates. | 2012-10-25 |
20120269143 | MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL SCHEDULERS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - Wireless communication between a base station and at least one user equipment comprises the following. Each user equipment periodically measures channel quality of communication with the base station and transmits a channel quality indicator to the base station. The base station schedules communication with the at least one user equipment based upon the periodically transmitted channel quality indicators. | 2012-10-25 |
