20100169396 | EFFICIENT COMPUTATION FOR EIGENVALUE DECOMPOSITION AND SINGULAR VALUE DECOMPOSITION OF MATRICES - For eigenvalue decomposition, a first set of at least one variable is derived based on a first matrix being decomposed and using Coordinate Rotational Digital Computer (CORDIC) computation. A second set of at least one variable is derived based on the first matrix and using a look-up table. A second matrix of eigenvectors of the first matrix is then derived based on the first and second variable sets. To derive the first variable set, CORDIC computation is performed on an element of the first matrix to determine the magnitude and phase of this element, and CORDIC computation is performed on the phase to determine the sine and cosine of this element. To derive the second variable set, intermediate quantities are derived based on the first matrix and used to access the look-up table. | 07-01-2010 |
20120039210 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INCREASING SPECTRUM USE EFFICIENCY IN A MESH NETWORK - Mesh Network Access Points (APs) points, including gateways and routers, are deployed over a geographic area. The APs monitor the communication channel for other carriers and transmit accordingly. The APs selectively co-transmit when other carriers are sensed, if the efficiency of the mesh network will improve. APs select a transmission rate based on observed carrier-to-interference ratios. APs use directional antennas to increase carrier-to-interference ratios and spectral efficiency. AP transmit schedules are adaptable and adjusted according to observed carrier-to-interference measurements. | 02-16-2012 |

20120263137 | HIGH SPEED MEDIA ACCESS CONTROL AND DIRECT LINK PROTOCOL - Techniques for MAC processing for efficient use of high throughput systems that may be backward compatible with various types of legacy systems are disclosed. In one aspect, a data frame is formed comprising a common portion for transmission in a format receivable by various stations, such as access points and remote stations. The data frame also comprises a dedicated portion, formatted for transmission to a specified remote station. In another aspect, the common portion is unsteered, and the dedicated portion is steered. In another aspect, an access point schedules an allocation in response to a data indication included in a common portion of a data frame transmitted from one remote station to another. In another aspect, a first station transmits a reference to a second station, which measures the reference and generates feedback therefrom. | 10-18-2012 |
