  • Radio communication system with diversity reception on a time-slot by time-slot basis
    Patent number: 5991282
    Abstract: A communication system base station improves uplink coverage on a time slot by time slot basis. The coverage is improved by allocating diversity and non-diversity time-slots based on received signal quality of an RF link between a mobile station and a base station. The diversity time-slots are time slots during which information is received by more receiver branches than during the non-diversity time-slots.

  • Radio communication system selectively using multicast with variable offset time
    Patent number: 5930248
    Abstract: A digital base station improves downlink coverage by allocating multicast and non-multicast channels based on the propagation property of an RF link between a mobile unit and a base station. The non-multicast channels are time slots during which information is transmitted from one antenna, and multicast channels are time slots during which information is transmitted from multiple diversity antennas. Transmission timing is offset from the diversity antennas by an amount that corresponds to the multipath propagation properties of the RF link.
