Patents by Inventor Essi Suikkanen

Essi Suikkanen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9973252
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus including: at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: choose a modulation, coding and rank scheme; determine a channel quality indicator based on the modulation, coding and rank scheme, and add a detector class indicator to the channel quality indicator for informing capability to a high order modulation if the high order modulation is chosen. In one particular embodiment the high order modulation is 64-QAM and excludes QPSK and 16-QAM, and the added detector class indictor can be a single bit.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9537640
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus including: at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: obtain a channel quality indicator comprising a detector class indicator informing transmitter's capability to a high order modulation, and substitute the modulation, coding and rank scheme utilizing the high order modulation with a modulation, coding and rank scheme utilizing a lower order modulation and providing nearest similar performance, if the high order modulation is not supported by a receiver.
