20090092066TECHNIQUES FOR LINK UTILIZATION FOR HALF-DUPLEX AND FULL-DUPLEX STATIONS IN A WIRELESS NETWORK - Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to an example embodiment, an apparatus may include a controller, and a wireless transmitter coupled to the controller, the wireless transmitter configured to the wireless transmitter configured to transmit at least a portion of a frame via wireless link to one or more mobile stations in a wireless network, the at least a portion of a frame including: an all-group downlink region directed to group 1 half-duplex (HD) mobile stations, group 2 HD mobile stations, and full-duplex (FD) mobile stations, a group 1 downlink region directed to the group 1 HD mobile stations and the FD mobile stations, and a group 2 downlink region directed to the group 2 HD mobile stations and the FD mobile stations.04-09-2009
20090213766FRAME STRUCTURES WITH FLEXIBLE PARTITION BOUNDARY FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS - Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to an example embodiment, an apparatus may include a wireless interface, and a controller, the apparatus being configured to: transmit a downlink subframe of a frequency division duplex (FDD) frame to one or more mobile stations in a wireless network, each wireless station being assigned to one of a plurality of groups, such as, for example, one of group 08-27-2009
20090268645TECHNIQUES FOR RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR STATIONS IN A FDD WIRELESS NETWORK - Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to an example embodiment, an apparatus may include a controller, and a wireless transmitter coupled to the controller, the wireless transmitter configured to the wireless transmitter configured to transmit a Map message as part of a first group downlink (DL) region, the Map message allocating, to a full-duplex (FD) mobile station (MS), a first resource in a first group UL region and a second resource in a second group UL region. The transmitter may also be configured to transmit a dummy information element (IE), for example, as part of a second group DL region, the dummy information element (IE) reflecting at least the allocating to the FD MS of the second resource in the second group UL region.10-29-2009
20090325578SUPPORT FOR MULTI-GROUP FREQUENCY DIVISION DUPLEX WIRELESS NETWORK - Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to an example embodiment, a method may include receiving, at a serving base station (BS) in a wireless network from a mobile station (MS), group preference information for the MS for each of one or more candidate BSs; obtaining, by the serving BS based on the group preference information, a group assignment for the MS from each of the one or more candidate BSs; and sending by the serving BS to the MS the group assignment from each of the candidate BSs.12-31-2009
20100008326RECOVERY SCHEMES FOR GROUP SWITCHING PROCEDURES FOR MULTI-GROUP FREQUENCY DIVISION DUPLEX WIRELESS NETWORKS - Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to an example embodiment, a method may include receiving at a mobile station from a base station in a wireless network, a message including a group switch instruction instructing the mobile station to switch from a current group to a new group, attempting, by the mobile station, to switch to the new group in response to receiving the group switch instruction, and sending, from the mobile station, an acknowledgement message that acknowledges either the success or failure of the attempting to switch to the new group.01-14-2010
20110103253METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING POWER SAVING USING SUPERFRAMES - An approach is provided for providing sleep mode associated with a resource frame structure. A superframe that includes a plurality of frames that is partitioned into sub-frames is detected. A length of listening window (05-05-2011
20110183632COEXISTENCE FOR COGNITIVE RADIO - A system for managing wireless communication in view of other potentially interfering wireless signal sources. Signal-related information may be collected from one or more apparatuses that are participating in a network. The information may then be evaluated in order to determine expected signal activity in the environment in which the apparatuses are operating. In some instances the signal activity may then be compared to a scan schedule utilized, for example, to identify legacy apparatuses operating in the environment. This scan schedule may be altered to avoid potential conflicts that may exist with the expected signal activity. The scan schedule may then be communicated to the networked apparatuses.07-28-2011

20100278152 Scheduling Method and System for Communication Networks; Corresponding Devices, Network and Computer Program Product - In a method of scheduling transmission services over a high speed packet access communication link such as a HSDPA and/or a HSUPA link a list of queues is created for transmission services to be provided over the link. The queues, which include both Real Time and Non Real Time queues, are allotted respective service priorities based e.g. on a channel quality indicator and/or a Quality of Service indicator to produce an ordered list of queues based on the service priorities. The link resources needed for serving at least one set of queues having higher priorities in the ordered list are estimated and a check is made. If these resources are available, the set of queues having higher priorities in the ordered list are served. If the resources required are not available, at least one queue is removed from the ordered list of queues.11-04-2010
