Abstract: A wireless communication system is configured for adaptive modulation of a transmitted symbol. The specific modulation and/or coding is uniquely identified and data related thereto is embedded within the transmitted symbol. A receiver extracts pilot signals form the transmitted symbol and performs a correlation analysis to identify the particular modulation/coding used for that particular transmitted symbol. This permits adaptive modulation on a symbol-by-symbol basis. A base station communicating with a plurality of peripheral subscribers may utilize different modulation/coding for each subscriber depending on channel conditions.

Abstract: A fixed wireless access system generally comprises a consumer premise equipment (CPE) unit, that is connected via an Ethernet interface to a personal computer or local area network, and a base station unit that is connected via an Ethernet interface to a network. As such, the CPE unit is preferably easily user-installed while the base station unit is preferably tower-mounted within a 1-5 mile range of the CPE unit. Both the CPE unit and base station unit preferably incorporate an integrated data transceiver/switch that enables a radio frequency air link operating in the 2.5-2.686 GHz range. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is used in the uplink and downlink transmissions between CPE units and base station units.

Abstract: A contention-based datalink couples a receiving station and a plurality of sending stations. A first sending station has established a communication session with the receiving station. If a second one of the plurality of sending stations requests a call setup for a higher priority low-latency transmission, the receiving station sends a poll to the second sending station. The poll causes the first sending station to temporarily suspend its transmission activities and permits the second sending station to transmit a real time protocol (RTP) datagram. Upon completion of transmission from the second sending station, the suspended transmission from the first sending station resumes in a transparent fashion. The receiving station controls transmission rate by sending poll requests at intervals determined by a data value transmitted from sending station.
