Title: Method and system for configuring wireless communications and corresponding computer program product and storage means
Filed: 2011-06-21
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of configuring wireless communications between a transmitting node 110 and a plurality of receivers (121, 122), while taking into account possible obstruction of at least one propagation path between the transmitting node and a receiver by an obstacle (140). More particularly, the invention lies in forming pairs of receiving nodes (121/122, 122/124) and determining which pairs meet a predetermined criterion of path diversity for the propagation paths between the transmitting node and the two receiving nodes of each pair. Those which meet the criterion (S804-S806, Fig. 8) are selected to take part in a communication using reception diversity. The determination step involves transmitting a signal from the transmitter, receiving this at each receiver of the pair and comparing the times of arrival (ToA). The arrival times provide an indication of the angular separation between the receivers of a pair. The receivers are preferably distributed physical layers and may be housed together in a single wireless reception device (340â  , Fig. 5).

Date Jul. 7, 1983.The liquid crystal display cell (21) indicates the date in an aperture situated at 12 o'clock. The hour wheel (31) and the center wheel (29) present coaxial pipes which pass through the dial and bear hour and minute hands. These wheels are driven by a wheel-train (30, 28, 27) actuated by the stepping motor (25) which receives its pulses from the circuit (23) controlled at a frequency of 1 Hz for example by the quartz (48). The 24-hour wheel (33) bears a contact element (46) which, once per revolution, grounds the terminal (47). The pulse which results therefrom is transmitted to a counter incorporated in the circuit (23). This counter controls the decoding circuit which controls the display cell (21). To effect the setting of the date, the stem (35) is brought into its intermediate position (II). The contact element (40) borne by the yoke (38) then grounds the terminal (41), which causes in the circuit (23) the emission of pulses at a frequency of 1 Hz which controls a repeated and rapid change of date.
