Abstract: A scheduling processor allocates a time slot of a communication protocol to a user equipment for data transmission based on received control data of the same or another user equipment in a current time slot and received user data of the same or another user equipment in a preceding time slot, while ignoring user data of the same or any other user equipment received in the current time slot. The scheduling processor also allocates a frequency resource to the user equipment. A control channel managing processor allocates signaling resources on a control channel for the submission of control information to the user equipment, which informs of the time slot allocated by the time domain scheduling processor as well as of the frequency resource allocated by the frequency domain scheduling processor.

Abstract: Resources which are to be related to a first interface between a terminal and a first network node and to a second interface between the first network node and a second network node are jointly determined during the allocation of radio technical resources for data transmission for a subscriber. Throughput and transmission characteristics of the first interface requested by a subscriber are taken into account and coherence of the resources which are to be allocated to the first interface and the resources which are to be allocated to the second interface is taken into account. Allocations of other subscribers are considered and the value to all subscribers is optimized.

Abstract: A method detects which radio communication terminals use interference suppression procedures, in a radio communication system. Here radio communication terminals periodically return measurement signals which represent radio field characteristics and/or reception situations determined at the radio terminal to a base station and compare these signals with one another and also with threshold values determined on the base station side. The comparisons conducted are used for assigning radio communication terminals to groups, with a first group being assigned those radio communication terminals which display a good reception situation during the threshold value comparison, whereas a second group is assigned all further radio communication terminals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the linearization of a high-frequency high-capacity amplifier by means of adaptive digital predistortion of the input signals of the amplifier (5) by determining correctional values that are approximated from DESIRED sender signals detected at the amplifier input and ACTUAL sender signals detected at the amplifier output. To this end, I/Q data continuously derived from the DESIRED sender signals at the digital base band modulator (1) and I/Q data derived by a measuring unit (4) at the amplifier output from the ACTUAL sender signals are fed to a neuronal network for evaluation and for the calculation of correctional values. The correctional values produced are returned to the digital base band modulator (1) and the data flow flowing from the digital base band modulator (1) to the amplifier input is predistorted with the correctional values produced in the neuronal network.

Abstract: Mobile stations communicate with a network station in a radio cell of a network via at least one radio interface. Localization of the position of the stations is carried out by the network either periodically or according to demand. To enable fast provision of localized information, the actual locations and experienced radio conditions of the stations are stored by the network. The packet data service enabled stations can be used advantageously for other methods known for other purposes, e.g. for determining received field intensity or interference level, for carrying out cell change or for activating a polling request.

Abstract: A method for influencing the level of a radio-frequency transmitted signal in a base station in a fixed radio network wherein the level of the radio-frequency transmitted signal is measured, and the level difference from the measured levels is determined in a transmitting/receiving unit and in an antenna transmitting/receiving unit which is connected to the transmitting/receiving unit via a cable. The level of the transmitted signal is influenced in such a manner that the level difference which is determined is maintained approximately at a predetermined level difference so as to compensate for level fluctuations in the transmitted signal caused by different cables and environmental influences.

Abstract: Transmission power in data transmission of packet data via a radio interface between a base station and subscriber stations is regulated by subdividing the active data being transmitted via a carrier into a plurality of packet data traffic channels that transmit in parallel. This effectively regulates the transmission power in the downlink direction. To this end, different transmission powers in the downlink direction of the base station to the subscriber station(s) are allocated to the packet data traffic channels for the transmission of active data. A packet data traffic channel with corresponding allocated transmission power range is allocated to every subscriber station that has an individual transmission power requirement in the downlink direction, similar or equal modulation and coding patterns are allocated to every subscriber station on the packet data traffic channel.
