Abstract: The subscriber station of claim 15, wherein the uplink data includes data to be transmitted, and a header having information on the data and the subscriber, and the uplink data generator adds the subheader includDisclosed is a method and device for requesting and reporting channel quality information in a mobile communication system. An uplink radio resource for a subscriber station having data to transmit is allocated and a CQI indicator for requesting channel quality information is added to the allocation information to be transmitted to a subscriber station. The subscriber station having received the uplink radio resource allocation information generates channel quality information by measuring the radio channel quality for communication with the base station according to existence of the indicator and transmits desired uplink data having the generated channel quality information to the base station.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for allocating and accessing downlink resources in the OFDMA communication system. In the resource allocation method, bursts having the same modulation and channel encoding level are arranged in a predetermined temporal order on a physical layer. Information on the allocated unit resources is included in a common control block and is transmitted to a subscriber station, and the subscriber station then detects a number of the allocated unit resources to thus check the range of bursts to be received by the subscriber station. Therefore, power consumption by the subscriber station is reduced and signaling overheads of the common control information and unneeded residual resources are decreased.

Abstract: Disclosed is a power saving mode control system (200) and method in a wireless portable Internet system. Stations in the sleep mode are grouped by aligning listening intervals of the stations which enter the sleep mode in the power saving management system wherein the sleep interval for receiving no traffic data is exponentially increased. Therefore, the sleep mode of the grouped subscriber stations are easily managed, and power saving efficiency is enhanced and system complexity is lowered by easily and quickly detecting data states provided to the corresponding stations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for retransmitting a packet in a mobile communication system. A waiting time for retransmission is established when a packet transmitted from a transmission unit to a receipt unit has no ACK message. A maximum number of times for retransmitting the packet is established when an NACK message is received. The ARQ transmitter moves to a discard state when the maximum management time of the ARQ block expires or the number of times of retransmissions exceeds the maximum number of times of retransmissions, and checks the ACK message receipt. The packet in the transmission buffer is discarded regardless of whether the distant message is transmitted or the discard message is transmitted or the discard message is checked when the ACK message is received.

Abstract: A method for generating a feedback message for ARQ, the method including: a) recording an ACK type in a first field; b) estimating the last block sequence number of successively ACKed blocks and recording the estimated last block sequence number in a second field; c) recording the number of groups of successively ACKed blocks after the block sequence number estimated in b) as the number of ACK MAPs startblock sequence number of the respective ACK MAPs in a fourth field; e) recording the lengths of the respective ACK MAPs in a fifth field corresponding to the start block sequence number in d); and f) sending a feedback message including information on the first to the fifth fields.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and device for controlling a power saving mode for applying the sleep mode for saving power consumption to the mobility of subscriber stations in a mobile communication network and a wireless Internet system. Subscriber stations entering the sleep mode are constantly grouped, listening intervals of the subscriber stations for each group are not superimposed, the existence state of traffic in the subscriber stations is independently notified for each group, and the overhead of signaling messages is minimized when the traffic is notified to the subscriber station in the sleep mode.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for a preamble-based bandwidth request. The present invention enables state control of a subscriber station based on the latest environment in a portable Internet system requesting a bandwidth using a preamble, and hence allows a subsequent more efficient transmission of user data. In addition, the present invention provides information for discrimination of the subscriber station transmitting the preamble as well as state control information of the subscriber station to the base station during a preamble-based bandwidth request by the subscriber station, and enables the base station to discriminate the subscriber station in the next time of data transmission with the subscriber station.

Abstract: A method for requesting and reporting channel quality information (CQI) in a wireless portable Internet system is disclosed. Timing of a channel quality information request by a base station is determined, existence of an automatic repeat request acknowledgment (ARQ_ACK) message of downlink data is determined on requesting the channel quality information from the subscriber station, the automatic repeat request acknowledgment message and the radio resource for the channel quality report to the subscriber station is allocated, the automatic repeat request acknowledgment message and the channel quality report information is received, and a modulating and coding level of downlink data is determined by extracting the channel quality report information from the automatic repeat request acknowledgment message.

Abstract: Information for different subscribers of a service with the same modulation and channel encoding method is transmitted by allocating radio resources in a wireless portable Internet system. Also, identifier information on the subscriber of a concurrently allocated radio resource is transmitted through common control information. Therefore, information for a plurality of subscribers coexists in a single radio resource block, and it can be easily transmitted. Since a subscriber station which has received downlink information can know to which radio resource block the information for the corresponding station is allocated through the subscriber identifier information transmitted as common control information, the subscriber station can access desired information by accessing a specific radio resource block to which information for the subscriber is allocated in the received frame.
