Patent number: 11751025Abstract: A communication device for multi-radio access technology (RAT) communications includes one or more processors and a plurality of transceivers. Each transceiver is configured to operate in at least one RAT of a plurality of RATs. The processors are configured to establish connection with a second communication device using a first transceiver of the plurality of transceivers and a first RAT of the plurality of RATs. A first data stream associated with a communication link connected to the second communication device and a third communication device is receive via a convergence function at the second communication device. The communication link uses a second RAT of the plurality of RATs. A code sequence is applied to a second data stream to generate an encoded second data stream, which is transmitted to the third communication device via a second communication link established based on information received via the first data stream.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2022Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Stefan Fechtel, Kilian Roth, Bertram Gunzelmann, Markus Dominik Mueck, Ingolf Karls, Zhibin Yu, Thorsten Clevorn, Nageen Himayat, Dave A.

Patent number: 8179869Abstract: In a wireless network in which the base station has full duplex capability (can transmit on the downlink channel and simultaneously receive on the uplink channel), but the mobile stations have only half duplex capability (each can transmit on the uplink channel and receive on the downlink channel, but not simultaneously), the base station may transmit duplicate copies of multicast data in two or more frames. Some of the addressed mobile station may be scheduled to receive the first frame and transmit during the second frame, while the other addressed mobile stations may be scheduled to transmit during the first frame and receive the second frame.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2007Date of Patent: May 15, 2012Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Duncan Kitchin, Muthaiah Venkatachalam
