  • Patent number: 11044688
    Abstract: The invention relates to a position-adaptive communication method which is carried out by a communication control module of a movable vehicle (1) in order to establish and maintain a communication connection (4) between the vehicle (1) and an opposite station (3). The communication method is a packet-based communication method, and a transmission pause (13) is provided between data packets and/or within the data packets. Position data of the vehicle (1) relative to a global coordinate system is ascertained, and a movement data set is received from at least one opposite station by means of a receiving device. Position data is extracted from the received movement data, and the position of the opposite station in the global coordinate system is determined. A directional vector (8) from the vehicle (1) to the opposite station (6) is ascertained, and a signal propagation time is ascertained from the length of the directional vector (8).

  • Patent number: 10979995
    Abstract: The invention relates to a direction-based interface selection method, carried out by a communication control module (8) in a vehicle (1), for establishing and retaining a wireless high-frequency communication connection between a communication interface of a moving vehicle (1) and a communication interface of at least one counterpart station. In this case, position data and an orientation of the vehicle with respect to a global coordinate system are determined. A position data record is determined by at least one counterpart station and the position data (12) contained therein are extracted. A direction vector (13) from the vehicle (1) to the counterpart station is then determined and an assignment to a sectoral radiation characteristic of a transmission apparatus is determined for said vector. This transmission apparatus is then connected to a communication device (7) via a communication position switch (6).

  • Patent number: 9432869
    Abstract: In a method for wireless communication, a receiver receives a first signal at a first radio frequency and determines the reception level of the first signal. The receiver receives data during a reception level of the first signal at the first radio frequency. The receiver decides, based on the determined reception level, whether at least one measurement is to be taken on a second signal transmitted at a second radio frequency. A radio station carries out the method.

  • Patent number: 8306009
    Abstract: A method of selecting suitable frequency bands for data transmission between a network node and a user equipment within a mobile communications network. A method selects suitable frequency bands for data transmission between a network node and user equipment within a mobile communications network. A scheduler on the network node side selects data transmission mode depending on the user equipment capability of receiving data from at least two frequency bands simultaneously. The scheduler preferably selects the data transmission mode in the following way: simultaneous data transmission over at least two frequency with or without splitting traffic data or data transmission over only one available frequency band. For data transmission, a radio frame structure (Big MAC element) is dynamically established in the so-called medium access control layer, shortened so-called MAC-layer, by using concurrent radio resources from other frequency bands or other radio access technologies.

  • Publication number: 20090318136
    Abstract: A first network radio station communicates with a user station with the aid of first radio technology while a second network radio station simultaneously communicates using second radio technology, receives data on radio technologies that can be utilized by the user station, and performs a reconfiguration process allowing the second network radio station to utilize the first radio technology. The second network radio station then communicates with the user station with the aid of the first radio technology.

  • Patent number: 7526307
    Abstract: A number of subscriber stations use a random access channel in an uncoordinated manner and transmit signals in the channel at a transmission power level which is set on the basis of a random principle. Deterministic transmission power level control is replaced by stochastic transmission power level control. For repeated transmission from two subscriber stations, it is improbable that both will once again transmit at the same transmission power level. If collisions occur between two transmissions which do not now have the same received power level at the base station, then, providing the power level difference is sufficient, at least the more powerful signal can be evaluated (capture effect) and only the transmission of the weaker power level signal need be repeated. Thus, on average, this reduces the delay before successful reception of the transmissions.

  • Patent number: 7136424
    Abstract: A method transmits packet data in a communications system between a transmitter and a receiver. One potential goal is to ensure correct processing of such packet data. To this end, the packet data are repeatedly transmitted by the transmitter and are received by the receiver as data received earlier or data received later. A diversity combination of the data received earlier and the data received later is performed to reconstruct the transmitted data packet.

  • Publication number: 20040088639
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting packet data (PDU) in a communications system (UMTS, GPRS) between a transmitter (BS; MS) and a receiver (MS; BS). The aim of the invention is to ensure correct processing of such packet data. To this end, the packet data (PDU) are repeatedly transmitted by the transmitter (BS; MS) and are received by the receiver (MS: BS) as data received earlier (x) or data received later (y). A diversity combination (MRC) of the data received earlier (x) and the data received later (y) is performed to reconstruct the transmitted data packet (PDU).

  • Patent number: 6230023
    Abstract: A method for controlling transmit power for connections between a base station and mobile stations of a radio communications system includes the steps of designating a direction of transmissions from mobile stations to a base station as an upward direction, and designating a direction of transmissions from the base station to the mobile stations as a downward direction. Information is transmitted to the mobile stations in the downward direction simultaneously in one frequency channel. Received powers are determined at at least two of the mobile stations. A dynamic range of transmit powers for the frequency channel is set. Transmit powers for the base station are determined. The determined transmit powers are mobile-station-specific by taking the received powers into account. A minimum transmit power is at least equal to a maximum transmit power minus the dynamic range. A device for controlling the transmit power is also provided.
