Capacity enhancement schemes are described for forward and reverse links of distributed cellular base stations consisting of a central unit and one or more remote units. In general, in one aspect, reverse link capacity is shared among remote units. The capacity sharing can be determined dynamically. ...
The present invention provides a device (200, 300), system (400, 500) and method for real-time streaming of a multimedia file stored in a remote server over a packet network to a multimedia client connected to the same network via a low-speed access link such as an analog telephone line. The inventi ...
In a radio access network, multicast packets are delivered each identified by a multicast network layer address representing a multicast group of access terminals. The multicast packets are delivered in one or more air link frames using a common control channel that is shared among access terminals ...
The present invention provides a device, method, and system for, in an entry node of a packet communication network, transcoding a received constant bit-rate video bitstream to a variable bit-rate video bitstream, packetizing the variable bit-rate video bitstream into video packets for efficient tra ...

The device and method provide precoding and symbol-rate transmitter spectral shaping of signals representative of digital information. The invention improves reliability of reception in the presence of non-Gaussian channel noise. The present invention also provides a flexible way of choosing between ...
Data is sent in some time slots of a forward link from a base station to at least one remote station in a wireless communication system, and voice information is sent from the base station to the at least one remote station in some other time slots of the forward link, the data being sent in a time ...
The present invention provides a transcoder for transcoding of digitally encoded bit streams produced by predictive encoders. The transcoder of this invention is less complex than previously known transcoders in terms of both computational and storage requirements. This efficiency is achieved by com ...
Data packets are received at a communications node. Each of the received data packets is associated with one of a set of different service classes. Packets corresponding to the received data packets are transmitted to recipients. The order in which the data packets are transmitted is controlled base ...
Techniques for transmitting encoded data packets to one or more mobile stations in a communication system including a cell that has sectors serving at least partially different geographic areas. The techniques include transmitting in a first sector an encoded data packet in one or more time slots to ...
