Patent number: 11582003Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for feeder link data transport are provided. For example, baseband in-phase and quadrature (IQ) data may be processed at the transmitter and receiver of the feeder link. The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) waveform used in a beam may be modified for transmission over the feeder link. For example, the waveform may have a wider subcarrier spacing (SCS) and may fill an enlarged bandwidth than otherwise with a feeder link.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2021Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: NOKIA TECHNOLOGIES OYInventors: Tzu-Chung Hsieh, Shahzada Basharat Rasool

Patent number: 9705660Abstract: The invention is directed to methods and systems for maximizing bandwidth utilization. Once a mobile device has attempted to communicate data through an LTE-based wireless communications network, a carrier bandwidth of a carrier is determined. A standard cell structure is then selected based on the carrier bandwidth such that the standard cell structure is capable of operating at a larger bandwidth than the carrier bandwidth. One or more resource blocks are identified that are not needed to communicate data to and from the mobile device. These resource blocks are zero padded. An identification of these unused resource blocks is communicated to the master information block, which broadcasts this information to the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2014Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Muhammad Ahsan Naim, Shahzada Basharat Rasool, Yu Zhou, Daniel Alberto Vivanco

Patent number: 8891486Abstract: In a communication system, a data processing system determines offload vectors for first base station carriers in a first wireless communication network. The offload vectors indicate offload availability per time frame for device offloads from the first base station carriers to second base station carriers in a second wireless communication network. The data processing system determines offload vector similarity among the first base station carriers to group the first base station carriers into a lowest number of carrier groups to maintain the offload vector similarity within the carrier groups above a similarity threshold. The data processing system generates and transfers a data structure that associates the first base station carriers with representative offload vectors for their carrier groups. Wireless communication devices receive and process the data structure to control offloads from the first base station carriers to the second base station carriers.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2012Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Daniel A.
