Patents by Inventor Jochen U. Giese

Jochen U. Giese 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).

  • Systems, apparatuses, and methods to facilitate coordinated scheduling in wireless communication systems
    Patent number: 9130607
    Abstract: A system and method of coordinating scheduling in a wireless communication system are described herein. In one aspect, user equipments determine one or more cells that interfere with communications received by the user equipments. The user equipment may determine particular information about the interfering cells, including a metric function based on the precoding matrix used by the interfering cell. The user equipment may transmit this information to the interfering cell in order to coordinate the use of precoding matrices between cells.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 11, 2011
    Date of Patent: September 8, 2015
    Assignee: QUALCOMM Incorporated
    Inventors: Jochen U. Giese, Stefan Brueck, Muhammad Awais Amin
  • Systems, apparatuses, and methods to facilitate coordinated scheduling in wireless communication systems
    Patent number: 8948800
    Abstract: A system and method of coordinating scheduling in a wireless communication system are described herein. In one aspect, cells receive information regarding one or more precoding matrices from user equipments. The information may include a request from an user equipment that the cell not use a particular precoding matrix for communications. The cell may determine whether restricting usage of the precoding matrix for communication improves overall communication in the wireless communication system by performing pair-wise comparisons of utility based on usage and restriction of the precoding matrix. The cell may further resolve conflicts that arise between several cells based on the granting of restriction of the precoding matrix.
