Abstract: A communication terminal including: a first normal operation determination unit determines whether an external communication network relay device is operating normally; a terminal selection unit selects a substitute communication terminal for executing a first substitute process for the external communication network relay device; a first instruction unit, when the own communication terminal is selected, instructs an internal wireless communication network relay device to perform processes of relaying a connection information allocation request and a response to the allocation request between the requesting communication terminal and the own communication terminal, relaying data relating to authentication between the own communication terminal and the authentication device, and relaying data for the external communication network to the external communication network; and a second instruction unit instructs a bypassing relay device to perform a process for relaying the data relating to authentication between
Abstract: In one embodiment, an access point is configured with a plurality of resource units (RUs). Each RU is configured to use a frequency range that differs from frequency ranges used by the other RUs. The access point receives first information indicating, for each RU, a first signal quality that the station associates with the respective RU. The access point receives second information indicating, for each RU, a second signal quality that the station associates with the respective RU. The access point further determines, based on at least the first information and the second information, a pattern indicating a recurring signal quality that the station associates with each RU. The access point uses the pattern to allocate one of the RUs for communicating with the station.

Abstract: A system includes participant nodes that unicast a voice stream to a master node and receive a multicast voice stream from the master node. The multicast voice stream may be a mixed voice stream mixing the voice streams of the participants. In this case, each participant performs echo cancellation on the multicast voice stream. Alternatively, the multicast voice stream may be a multiplexed voice stream multiplexing the voice streams of all participants. In this case, each participant de-multiplexes the multicast voice stream and generates a mixed voice stream that does not include that participant. Alternatively, the multicast voice stream received by each participant may be a multiplexed digital voice stream multiplexing multiple mixed streams including one mixed stream that does not include the voice stream of that participant. In this case, each participant de-multiplexes the multicast voice stream to obtain the mixed stream that does not include that participant.
Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for adjusting communication timings of beams (e.g., of beam pair links) within a beam timing advance group (TAG). In some cases, a base station may determine that transmission timing at a UE may be misaligned between multiple beams. The base station may configure a set of beams into a beam TAG, and may send a timing advance (TA) command for the beam TAG. A common timing reference value may be identified based on the TA command. UEs performing uplink transmissions may determine a TA value for the beam TAG based on the common timing reference value, and may adjust a communication timing for one or more of the beams within the beam TAG based at least in part on the common timing reference value and the timing advance value.

Abstract: Examples described herein include recursive techniques for calculating frequency-localized weights for adaptive beamformers. Components of solutions for other subcarriers are weighted and used to calculate weights for a particular subcarrier. For example, a previously-calculated cross-correlation vector and/or inverse covariance matrix from another subcarrier may be updated for use in calculating weights for a subsequent subcarrier. In some examples, the previously-calculated components are weighted by a forgetting factor. The previously-calculated components themselves may have weighted contributions from yet previously-calculated components.
Abstract: Presented are a method and device for transmitting a wakeup packet in a wireless LAN system. Specifically, the transmission device configures a first wakeup packet having a first data rate by using a first sync field, and a second wakeup packet having a second data rate by using a second sync field. The transmission device transmits the first and second wakeup packets to a receiving device. Here, an OOK scheme is applied to the first and second wakeup packets to configure the first and second wakeup packets as an ON signal or an OFF signal. The first sync field includes a first sequence, and the second sync field includes a second sequence which is a complementary sequence to the first sequence. The number of coefficient 1 and coefficient 0 included in the first sequence is the same. The first and second sequences have a 32 bit length, and each bit of the first and second sequences has a duration of 2 ?s.

Abstract: The base station includes an encoder that encodes a first set of bits of MTC information with a first coding rate and encodes a second set of MTC information bits with a second coding rate. The first set and second set of bits are modulated using layered modulation and broadcast within the service area of the base station in a first transmission such that the first set of bits can be recovered using the low modulation order and the second set of bits can be recovered using the high modulation order. A relay station receives, demodulates and decodes the first transmission to recover at least the second set of bits. The relay station transmits a second set transmission including at least the second set of bits to at least one MTC device that did not recover the second set of bits from the first transmission.
