  • Patent number: 8139608
    Abstract: Optimizing a radio link is done by acquiring at least OSI layer one and two performance measurements, determining an optimum setting collection for at least OSI layer three to a top layer, then configuring at least the OSI layer three to the top layer based upon the optimum setting collection. The top layer is at least OSI layer four. The invention includes optimized radio links, methods of making optimized radio links, revenue generating making optimized radio links by providing means for optimizing the radio link.

  • Patent number: 8073001
    Abstract: A baseband processing module for use within a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver includes a downlink/uplink interface, TX processing components, a processor, memory, RX processing components, and a turbo decoding module. The RX processing components receive a baseband RX signal from the RF front end, produce a set of IR samples from the baseband RX signal, and transfer the set of IR samples to the memory. The turbo decoding module receives at least one set of IR samples from the memory, forms a turbo code word from the at least one set of IR samples, turbo decodes the turbo code word to produce inbound data, and outputs the inbound data to the downlink/uplink interface. The turbo decoding module performs metric normalization based upon a chosen metric, performs de-rate matching, performs error detection operations, and extracts information from a MAC packet that it produces.

  • Patent number: 7680177
    Abstract: A multipath wireless communication is processed to recover a transmitted data signal without performing a direct matrix inversion (DMI). First, the multipath wireless communication is received. Then HHH and HHH values associated with the multipath wireless communication are determined. Weights based on HHH and HHH associated with the received data signal may then be determined and used to recover the transmitted data signal from the received multipath wireless communication.

  • Patent number: 5757282
    Abstract: Low rate telemetry transmission between a transmission side and a receiving side is accomplished at the transmission side on digital information in a channel at a predetermined bit rate by selecting a predetermined frame thereof and outputting a selected one of at least two digital information elements desired for transmission with and in addition to those in the frame by means of a key generator which outputs a known key to the transmission and receiving sides and defined by a sequence of digital information that uniquely identifies the selected digital information elements by first processing the digital information element with the key in a first reversible mathematical manipulation to provide a first output and secondly performing a second reversible mathematical manipulation of the first output and the digital information in the frame to obtain an encoded digital information sequence which is then transmitted from the transmission side and received by the receiving side where it is decoded by reversing t
