Patent number: 9893850Abstract: The present invention provides an authorized shared access (ASA) assisted interference coordination method in a heterogeneous time-division duplexing (TDD) relay network. In a TDD relay system architecture, an ASA controller assists a secondary system to perform an interference coordination mechanism by adjusting a time slot structure configuration and synchronization information, and a mobility management entity (MME) obtains a time slot configuration and the synchronization information of a primary system through ASA, and selects, according to relevant information of a relay node inside a management range, an optimal time slot configuration and a working mode for the relay node.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2014Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: Shanghai Research Center for Wireless CommunicationsInventors: Yuling Ouyang, Honglin Hu, Haitao Li, Kodo Shu

Patent number: 9083385Abstract: A channel decoding method and decoder are disclosed. The decoding method is based on a Circular Viterbi Algorithm (CVA), rules out impossible initial states one by one through iterations according the received soft information sequence, and finally finds the global optimal tail-biting path. In the present invention, all impossible iterations are ruled out through multiple iterations, and only the initial state having most likelihood with the received sequence survives. The algorithm is finally convergent to an optimal tail-biting path to be output. In addition, the method also updates a metric of a maximum likelihood tail-biting path (MLTBP) or rules out impossible initial states through the obtained surviving tail-biting path, thereby effectively solving the problem that the algorithm is not convergent due to a circular trap, providing a practical optimal decoding algorithm for a tail-biting convolutional code, reducing the complexity of an existing decoding scheme, and saving the storage space.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2012Date of Patent: July 14, 2015Assignee: SHANGHAI RESEARCH CENTER FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONSInventors: Xiaotao Wang, Hua Qian, Jing Xu, Hao Huang, Yang Yang, Fang Wang

Patent number: 8948770Abstract: The present invention discloses a cluster head assisted method for converting a user terminal from device-to-device (D2D) communication to cellular communication. When quality of a D2D link between a user terminal and a cluster head is lower than a predetermined threshold, if the user terminal has to leave the cluster but still expects to continue an original the service, the user terminal performs cell search and random access, and establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a target base station of a cellular network. Switching from D2D communication to cellular communication is implemented with the assistance of the cluster head, and a communication manner after the switching is provided. The present invention implements mobile switching from D2D communication in distributed cluster communication to cellular communication, which can reduce route search delay and save wireless resources.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2012Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: Shanghai Research Center for Wireless CommunicationsInventors: Jinling Du, Ting Zhou, Jing Xu, Zhenhong Li, Haifeng Wang
