  • Patent number: 9084225
    Abstract: Provided is a bidirectional service flow management method in a wideband wireless connection communication system, and more particularly, a method of performing a bidirectional flow establishment. The method of providing a flow service in an IEEE 802.16/WiBro includes: generating a revised dynamic service addition (DSA) related message in which an area for designating bidirectional flow management information is allocated from a standard DSA related message; and performing a bidirectional flow initialization process between a subscriber station (SS) and a base station (BS) via single control message negotiation based on the revised DSA related message.

  • Patent number: 8792536
    Abstract: A repeater using a digital filter is disclosed. The repeater comprises a MUX filter for filtering an RF signal received through an antenna or a signal to be transmitted through the antenna; a low noise amplifier for lowering noise of the signal filtered by the MUX filter; a down converter for converting the signal outputted from the low noise amplifier into an IF band signal to digitalize the signal; a digital filter for filtering the digital signal outputted form the down converter based on parameters inputted by a user; a filtering controller for controlling the digital filter by using a filtering coefficient calculated based on the parameters; an up converter for converting the signal filtered by the digital filter into an RF band signal; and a high power amplifier for amplifying the signal outputted from the up converter to a high power signal.

  • Patent number: 8159946
    Abstract: Provided is a resource management method in a communication system, and more particularly, a resource management method based on priority in a wireless communication system. The resource management method in a wireless management network includes: setting a priority factor value with regard to a link flow for which link establishment is requested; and if a capacity required by the flow for which link establishment is requested exceeds a remaining capacity of a base station, increasing the remaining capacity of the base station by sequentially reducing a minimum reserved rate (MRR) value of flows that receive a service at a lower priority than the flow for which link establishment is requested to a maximum sustained rate (MSR) value, until the remaining capacity required by the flow for which link establishment is requested is generated.

  • Patent number: 8139484
    Abstract: Provided is a traffic class of an IEEE 802.16/WiBro system. The unsolicited grant service (UGS) scheduling method with regard to a subscriber station (SS) and a base station (BS) that are disposed in a network wherein an IEEE 802.16/WiBro system is realized, the method includes: when the SS requires 1 through M (where M is a positive integer) UGS flows, and the BS serves 1 through N (where N is a positive integer) frames, the BS storing grant periods and guaranteed sizes that are granted to the M UGS flows in each N frame; and the BS comparing service capacity of a frame and a sum of guaranteed sizes of each flow belonging to the N frames, and determining if an overload occurs.

  • Publication number: 20090262746
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a router (for example, ACR) which provides a mobility function and a delivery function with a portable Internet core network while controlling RAS, which is a base station, as a basis network element of an access network in a portable Internet (for example, WiBro) service, and particularly, provides a new paging algorithm in order to overcome the limit of a paging in a conventional routing scheme, and to effectively process the buffering function for seamless connection maintenance and the paging function for a destination terminal with respect to the terminated call of a terminal in a non-active mode. A router of the present invention includes a control plane that buffers a data packet for a non-active mode, and performs a paging for a corresponding non-active mode terminal.

  • Publication number: 20090059889
    Abstract: Provided is a real-time polling service (rtPS) class of an IEEE 802.16/WiBro system. An rtPS scheduling method of the IEEE 802.16/WiBro system includes subscriber station (SS) located in a network where the IEEE 802.16/WiBro system is realized inserting a timestamp indicating time information when uplink data is transmitted from an application layer of the SS into the uplink data; and after the SS receives polling from a base station (BS), comparing the timestamp inserted into the uplink data and a current time, and, if a difference between the timestamp and the current time is greater than a predetermined period of time, firstly dropping the uplink data.
