  • Publication number: 20120044806
    Abstract: Provided is a multi-route routing scheme that supports Quality of Service (QoS) in the wireless mesh network. A method of notifying about and avoiding congestion situation in data transmission in a wireless mesh network and a mesh node may also be provided. Data may be differentially transmitted to multiple routes by obtaining a route congestion level existing in a current multi-hop route and thus, data providing a real-time service, such as a video streaming service, may avoid congested routes and may be promptly transmitted. Multiple queues in a mesh node may be divided into divided queues based on a congestion situation of a transmission route in a network and the divided queues may be transmitted through multiple routes and thus, an efficiency of the overall network may increase.

  • Publication number: 20100279600
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of using relay that may continuously transmit data without time division based on superposition coding in a communication system. When transmission of a relay-supported user signal via a base station-relay link is performed, the method of using relay based on the superposition coding reuses a resource allocated to a direct-transmission user based on the superposition coding to perform the transmission. According to example embodiments, a separate resource for the base station-relay link may not be needed, and continuous relay transmission is possible without time division, thereby substantially increasing frequency efficiency and reducing a transmission delay caused by the use of the relay.
