Abstract: Embodiments presented herein relate to a method for reciprocity-based transmission in a radio communication network. The method is performed in a base station and may include obtaining a channel estimation of Rx quantities of a set of receive, Rx, and transmit, Tx, distribution networks, obtaining a channel estimation of Rx quantities of a set of Rx distribution networks, and performing reciprocity-based transmission with utilization of the obtained channel estimation of Rx quantities of both the set of Rx and Tx distribution network and the set of Rx distribution network, whereby channel estimation of Rx quantities of more Rx distribution networks than Tx distribution networks are utilized for the reciprocity-based transmission. A method, a base station, a wireless device, a computer programs and a computer program product for reciprocity-based beamforming in a radio communication network are also presented.

Abstract: A method and a decompressor node in Internet Protocol (IP) network for fast change of IP Headers Compression (HC) mechanism are provided. A Mobile Station (MS) connected to a serving system uses a first IP HC mechanism therewith. Upon initiating handoff of the MS from the serving system to a target system, a second IP HC mechanism is chosen to be used with the target system. The second IP HC mechanism is initialized using information received at the target system from the serving system. In a preferred embodiment, the received information is a decompression context and the initialization of the second IP HC mechanism consists of translating the decompression context from the first IP HC mechanism to the second IP HC mechanism.

Abstract: A digital input symbol is transmitted to a receiver by determining one or more formant frequencies that correspond to the digital input symbol. In one embodiment, a pre-programmed addressable memory is used to map the set of possible digital input symbols onto a set of corresponding speech units, each comprising a superposition of one or more formant frequencies. A signal is then generated having the speech units. The signal is supplied for transmission over a voice channel. This may include supplying the signal to a voice coder prior to transmission. In another aspect of the invention, a forward error correction code (FEC) is determined for the digital input symbol, and the one or more speech units are modified as a function of the forward error correction code. In this way, the FEC may also be transmitted with the encoded input symbol. The modification may affect any of a number of attributes of the speech units, including a volume attribute and a pitch attribute.
