Abstract: Devices and systems, and methods of using them, for point-to-point transmission/communication of high bandwidth signals. Radio devices and systems may include a pair of reflectors (e.g., parabolic reflectors) that are adjacent to each other and configured so that one of the reflectors is dedicated for sending/transmitting information, and the adjacent reflector is dedicated for receiving information. Both reflectors may be in a fixed configuration relative to each other so that they are aligned to send/receive in parallel. In many variations the two reflectors are formed of a single housing, so that the parallel alignment is fixed, and reflectors cannot lose alignment. The device/systems may be configured to allow switching between duplexing modes. These devices/systems may be configured as wide bandwidth zero intermediate frequency radios including alignment modules for automatic alignment of in-phase and quadrature components of transmitted signals.

Abstract: A communication system comprises a communication node for scheduling uplink and downlink transmissions in a communication system. The communication node determines based on a first set of parameters of a data associated with the communication node and a second set of parameters of a data associated with one other communication node, whether to load the data associated with the communication node from an end of a data queue buffer. The communication node upon determining to load the data associated with the communication node from the end of the data queue buffer, loads the data associated with the communication node from the end of the data queue buffer. The communication node further determines a start time for transmission of the data associated with the communication node and schedules transmission of the data associated with the communication node at the start time.

Abstract: A method for handing off user devices (131-134) between network control processors (110, 120) in a frequency hopping communication system (100) includes establishing a set of synchronization frequencies (A-D) for use by said NCPs (110, 120), informing the plurality of user devices (131-134) of said synchronization frequencies (A-D) and assigning a synchronization frequency (A, B, C or D) to each respective NCP, each NCP transmitting synchronization information at its assigned synchronization frequency (A, B, C or D) during each hopping dwell (1-82). Upon a determination that a user device hand-off is necessary, said user device in question (133) tunes to a synchronization frequency (B) different from the synchronization frequency (A) employed by the currently serving NCP (110) and synchronizes its operation to the NCP (120) transmitting synchronization information on the tuned to synchronization frequency (B).
