  • Patent number: 7693143
    Abstract: The routing method for wireless transport service comprises a step of receiving a unicast frame from an associated client; determining whether a destination of the unicast frame is locally associated. A wireless node delivers the unicast frame to a final destination if positive, otherwise, determining whether an associated transport device of a destination can be determined. The WITnet header is added and the associated transport device of the destination is put in an auxiliary address field if positive, otherwise, the next step is performed to add the WITnet header and put an address of a default edge device in the auxiliary address field. The next step is setting a tunnel frame flag, and then delivering the unicast frame to a next-hop toward the auxiliary address.

  • Patent number: 7613482
    Abstract: A hybrid wireless network system is disclosed. The hybrid wireless network system includes an antenna array, an analog subsystem, and a digital subsystem. The antenna array at least includes two antenna elements. In the case of using multiple antenna elements to extend link range and coverage, a coarse-fine method is included for antenna elements selection. The analog subsystem calculates a difference signal and a sum signal based on the two RF signals. The analog subsystem includes step leveling devices. The digital subsystem estimates a direction-of-arrival (DOA) based on the sum signal and the difference signal. The step-leveling devices receive weights from the digital subsystem, in form of a feedback control, to apply the weights on the two RF signals respectively. The digital subsystem repetitively calculates new weights to update a beam pattern formed by the two RF signals until the DOA approaches null.

  • Patent number: 7526321
    Abstract: A method of channel allocation for respective radios is disclosed. The method begins by scanning within sectors of a phased array for retrieval of BSSIDs belonging to each beam of a particular channel in the sectors. Then, corresponding characterizing information is recorded for every BSSID located. Next, an initial channel allocation for the respective radios is formed. The initial channel allocation is compared with a plurality of predetermined channel allocation modes that include a first mode of Point-to-Point (PtP) linkage, a second mode of MultiPoint-to-Point (MPtP) linkage, a third mode of Point-to-MultiPoint (PtMP) linkage, and a fourth mode of MultiPoint-To-MultiPoint (MPtMP) linkage, and a mode out of the predetermined channel allocation modes is selected that best characterizes the initial channel allocation. The radios are configured based on the channel allocation and unbalanced loading is reduced by adding/subtracting a non-overlapped frequency channel of a radio to an unbalanced beam.

  • Patent number: 7450491
    Abstract: In a multi-carrier and multi-rate CDMA system, a base station transmits an index tag to a number of mobile stations. The index tag has a length indicating a transmission rate and all index tags are nodes in a code tree. In the code tree, mother nodes and their child nodes block each other and are not assigned to the mobile stations at the same time. At the same time, index tags of nodes in the same level of the code tree map are orthogonal to each other. The mobile station constructs an index tag matrix according to the index tag. Then, the index tag matrix is multiplied with a generating matrix that is stored in every mobile station to generate a spreading factor matrix whose rows respectively correspond to different carriers.
