  • Patent number: 7630380
    Abstract: Provided is a scheduling apparatus and method for allocating resources to individual users in a multiantenna system. The method includes determining a ratio of time slots to be allocated according to a ratio desired by each of the terminals in every specific time slot interval, calculating a channel capacity average and a standard deviation for each terminal according to channel capacity reported from each terminal for a specific time, and determining, based on the determined ratio of time slots, a terminal to which a specific time slot is to be allocated according to the channel capacity average and the standard deviation, calculated for each terminal, and the last reported channel capacity.

  • Patent number: 7450610
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for allocating channel time for each application in a single superframe when applications such as wireless USB and IEEE 802.2, which are implemented in a MAC layer, coexist on a wireless PAN. The apparatus includes a beacon generating module for generating a superframe; a duration adjusting module for adjusting a duration of the superframe to be a multiple of a frame of an upper application layer of a device; a channel time dividing module for comparing an allowable size of maximum CTA in the frame of the upper application layer of the device with a size of isochronous CTA of another device and dividing the CTA, if necessary; and a channel time relocating module for comparing a super-rate of CTA previously located in the superframe with a super-rate of CTA to be newly added and relocating the newly added CTA.
