Title: Methods for optimal multi-channel assignments in vehicular ad-hoc networks
Inventor: ONISHI RYOKICHI
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2007-11-13
Abstract: A communications path is established among an ordered sequence of moving nodes, representing vehicles. Available channels may differ from one node to the next node and a node cannot use the same channel for both receiving and transmitting information. Three methods are described that provide an optimal sequence of channel assignments between the nodes. A sequence of channel assignments is called optimal if it establishes a communications path from the first node in the sequence to the last node in the sequence, or, if such a path does not exist, from the first node to the farthest node possible in the sequence. The first method uses a depth-first search starting from the first node in the sequence. The second method uses a "look ahead" scheme in the depth-first search method. The third method requires only a single pass through the sequence of nodes by identifying optimal channel assignments in subsequences of nodes without a need for backtracking.

IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2002-08-23
Abstract: A user equipment includes a higher layer ARQ mechanism, a physical layer transmitter, a physical layer receiver, an ACK transmitter and an AMC unit.  The ARQ  mechanism is configured to generate data for transmission. The physical layer transmitter is configured to receive the data from the ARQ mechanism, format it into packets for transmission using an OFDMA air interface and to retransmit an original or selectively modified packet if an acknowledgement for that packet has not been received within a predetermined period of time. The physical layer receiver is configured to receive and demodulate received packets and retransmission statistics. The ACK transmitter is configured to transmit a corresponding acknowledgement for a given packet at the physical layer receiver. A mechanism is configured to receive the corresponding acknowledgement for the given packet transparently with respect to the higher layer ARQ mechanism. The AMC unit is configured to adjust a particular encoding/data modulation of each packet using collected retransmission statistics. Subchannels from an OFDM frequency set are selectively nulled wherein the use of a poor quality subchannel is precluded for a predetermined period and adding a previously nulled subchannel back into the OFDM frequency set where a retransmission rate or link quality indicates a high quality for the previously nulled subchannel.

Abstract: A method for sending, transmitting and scheduling a system message in a long term evolution system is disclosed, said sending method includes the following steps:  when a base station sends the system message, it takes a radio frame with which system frame number is SFN-M as a radio frame in which a master system information block (MIB) is sent for the first time in the repeat cycle of the master system information block, and sends a scheduling information unit SU-1 in a fixed sub-frame of the radio frame with which system frame number is SFN-S1; wherein, the SFN-M is divisible by 4 and the SFN-S1 is divisible by 8. According to the technical scheme of the present invention, by fixing the relative scheduling relationship between the SU-1 and the MIB, the scheduling information bit related to the SU-1 can be omitted in the MIB, thus under the same sending condition, the coverage of the MIB can be increased and the reliability that the user equipment receives the MIB can be improved.
