Patent number: 7388919Abstract: A system that adapts wireless link parameters for a wireless communication link. A measure is determined of errors occurring in communication over a wireless link. In a case that the measure of errors corresponds to more errors than a first predetermined threshold, communication changes from a first set of wireless link parameters to a second set of wireless link parameters. The second set of wireless link parameters corresponds to higher error tolerance than the first set of wireless link parameters. In a case that the measure of errors corresponds to fewer errors than a second predetermined threshold, communication changes from the first set of wireless link parameters to a third set of wireless link parameters. The third set of wireless link parameters corresponds to lower error tolerance than the first set of wireless link parameters. Preferably, the measure of errors is determined by monitoring a number of NACK messages and a number of ACK messages that occur.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2005Date of Patent: June 17, 2008Assignee: Aperto Networks, Inc.Inventors: Subir Varma, Reza Majidi-Ahy, Joseph Hakim, Wendy Chiu Fai Wong

Patent number: 7366133Abstract: A method and system for adaptive point to multipoint wireless communication. The method and system integrate adaptive and dynamic responsiveness for communication parameters related to multiple characteristics of wireless communication links, both for a single sender and a single receiver, and for sets of multiple senders and multiple receivers. Moreover, the method and system are self-optimizing in the sense that they are adaptively and dynamically responsive to results of attempts to optimize parameters related to multiple characteristics of wireless communication links. Multiple characteristics of wireless communication links are optimized simultaneously, in that the optimal set of values for a plurality of N characteristics, rather fan N individual optimal values for each characteristic, is adaptively and dynamically selected.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2000Date of Patent: April 29, 2008Assignee: Aperto Networks, Inc.Inventors: Reza Majidi-Ahy, Joseph Hakim, Subir Varma

Publication number: 20070184828Abstract: The invention provides a method and system for robust topology wireless communication using access points. A wireless communication system includes a communication cell having a base station controller and at least one set of customer premises equipment. The customer premises equipment is disposed within a sector of the cell, and communication between the base station controller and the customer premises equipment is controlled by the base station controller is so as to prevent interference between multiple sets of customer premises equipment. When customer premises equipment is subject to relatively larger amounts of multipath effect, or interference or noise, one or more access points are disposed within the sector, so as to propagate or route communication between the base station controller and one or more sets of customer premises equipment. The access points may range in complexity from simple reflectors, to repeaters, to routing devices operative within the cell.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2006Publication date: August 9, 2007Applicant: Aperto Networks, Inc.Inventor: Reza Majidi-Ahy
