Abstract: A communication system includes a base station and a plurality of remote stations wirelessly communicating with the base station. The base station determines a respective RF quality for each remote station. In response to a request for RF resources from a given remote station, the base station determines whether admission of the given remote station would exceed an RF power budget threshold. If the RF power budget threshold would not be exceeded, the RF quality is compared to a first quality threshold to determine whether to allocate the requested RF resource to the given remote station. Otherwise, the RF quality is compared to a second quality threshold more stringent than the first quality threshold to determine whether to allocate the RF resource to the given remote station. The base station may further determine whether to allocate requested RF resources on the basis of a priority of the requested resources.

Abstract: A method and device for decoding data. The device and method select certain current states from all possible states of an encoder for each of encoded data, generate accumulated conditional probabilities (ACPS) for the selected current states, compare the ACPs with a threshold value, and store previous states associated with the ACPs based on the comparison results. The stored previous states are selectively output according to a predetermined scheme to generate decoded data.
