Abstract: The present approach is applied to a case where, in a radio communication system including a mobile station and a plurality of base stations that communicate with the mobile station in subframe units, each of the plural base stations makes the downlink transmission power to become lower by restricting downlink signals in particular subframes. Herein, the mobile station, if it is a mobile station that cannot designate two types of subframes for performing CQI measurement, calculates a single type of CQI in the cell formed by the base station without recognizing the particular subframes that the base station transmitted and transmits the calculated CQI value to the base station. Each of the plural base stations, when receiving a CQI value from the mobile station, corrects the CQI value into two types if the mobile station is a mobile station that cannot designate two types of subframes for performing CQI measurement.

Abstract: A network switch includes a memory configurable to store alternate table representations of an individual trie in a hierarchy of tries. A prefix table processor accesses in parallel, using an input network address, the alternate table representations of the individual trie and searches for a longest prefix match in each alternate table representation to obtain local prefix matches. The longest prefix match from the local prefix matches is selected. The longest prefix match has an associated next hop index base address and offset value. A next hop index processor accesses a next hop index table in the memory utilizing the next hop index base address and offset value to obtain a next hop table pointer. A next hop processor accesses a next hop table in the memory using the next hop table pointer to obtain a destination network address.
