Abstract: A system, method or computer readable medium to provide efficient congestion notification is described herein. In various embodiments, a packet is received at an intermediate node of one or more data center networks. A current queue length at the intermediate node is determined.

In some embodiments, the packet is marked when it is being de-queued. In a further embodiment, Flexible Initial Packet Size (FIPS) may be utilized to improve the efficiency of the tuning.

Abstract: A multiple-access MIMO WLAN system that employs MIMO, OFDM, and TDD. The system (1) uses a channel structure with a number of configurable transport channels, (2) supports multiple rates and transmission modes, which are configurable based on channel conditions and user terminal capabilities, (3) employs a pilot structure with several types of pilot (e.g., beacon, MIMO, steered reference, and carrier pilots) for different functions, (4) implements rate, timing, and power control loops for proper system operation, and (5) employs random access for system access by the user terminals, fast acknowledgment, and quick resource assignments. Calibration may be performed to account for differences in the frequency responses of transmit/receive chains at the access point and user terminals. The spatial processing may then be simplified by taking advantage of the reciprocal nature of the downlink and uplink and the calibration.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method and apparatus for implementing a mobile receiver (10) that combats multiple access interference (MAI) in a code division multiple access (CDMA) spread spectrum system. Such capability is required by mobile receivers to support high data rate applications such as the ones provided by HSDPA and 1xTREME. A receiver (10) combining equalization and interference cancellation (IC), according to the invention, avoids the shortcomings of either equalization or IC and provides superior performance relative to prior art methodologies. The approach proposed by this invention for the operation of the mobile receiver is to first perform equalization (12) of the received signal (r) and then use the resulting decisions to perform IC. Combining equalization and IC yields a complexity that is smaller to that obtained by implementing conventional IC with a Rake receiver for the same performance.

Abstract: A base station (100) transmits a DL grant for a terminal (200) by mapping it to an R-PDCCH region, thus transmitting a series of data groups to the terminal (200) by the SPS method. A transmission control unit (102) sets in the R-PDCCH region a control resource region which maps a data resource and the DL grant in a resource block group common in frames to be transmitted by the SPS method. A resource region which was defined as a control resource region in a first frame to be transmitted among a plurality of frames to be transmitted is defined as a data resource in a second or subsequent frame to be transmitted.
