Abstract: Allocation of resources in a wireless network are described where resources are allocated for each channel having a second parameter above zero prior to another channel for transmission having a third parameter less than or equal to zero. The second parameter may be derived from a first channel's first parameter and the third parameter is derived from a second channel's first parameter.

Abstract: Allocating uplink resources based on downlink traffic in a wireless network is provided. The number of sent segments of transport communication protocol (TCP) data may be counted. In response to the count exceeding a value, a message is sent allocating uplink resources to receive an uplink segment and a message acknowledging sent segments of the TCP data.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may determine and transmit to a network buffer occupancy associated with one or more radio bearers. The UE may select data for transmission from radio bearers using a received single allocation of uplink resources. The selection of the data may occur using a first single iteration and a second iteration.

Abstract: Power control in a communication system (100) employing a Downlink Shared Control Channel (DSCH) and a Forward Access Control Channel (FACH) is described. The method includes, applying power control on the Downlink Shared Control Channel; deriving power control information from the power control on the Downlink Shared Control Channel; and applying to the Forward Access Control Channel the derived power control information from the power control on the Downlink Shared Control Channel in order to produce power control on the Forward Access Control Channel. The power control of the Forward Access Control Channel may be implemented by scheduling data in response to the derived power control information.

Abstract: Scheduling data transmissions in a wireless network is disclosed. A first value related to a radio bearer is provided to a user equipment (UE) by a wireless network. The wireless network also sends an allocation message for an uplink transmission and receives data in response. The data is selected from a plurality of radio bearers of the UE in response to the received first value and based on a second value.

Abstract: An improved acknowledgement (ACK) prioritization scheme is disclosed that provides ACKs with a lower block error rate (BLER) (as opposed to data) over an air interface, provides a separate radio bearer for ACKs, and successively increases the priority of ACKs for each retransmission required. A lower BLER target for ACKs may be achieved by an increase in transmit (Tx) power, additional coding for the radio bearer, or the use of diversity or hybrid automatic repeat request (ARQ) schemes. After packets are identified as either data or an ACK, they are sent to separate Tx buffers over separate radio bearers. Because the ACKs are transmitted over separate bearers and Tx buffers as compared to the data, ACKs are never queued behind the data, and are effectively prioritized as compared to the data. When retransmissions are required for an ACK packet, the scheduling prioritization is increased successively for each ACK retransmission required.

Abstract: Obtaining access to a physical uplink shared channel that is shared by a plurality of mobile stations in a wireless network is disclosed. A mobile station may receive dedicated configuration information for an uplink control channel. The mobile station may send to the wireless network over the uplink control channel a request for access to the physical uplink shared channel. The mobile station receives a physical uplink shared channel allocation in response to the request.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer-readable medium encoded with executable instructions for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) flow control in a communication system are provided. According to embodiments of the invention. TCP flow control includes determining delay in a transmit buffer of the system; and modifying TCP window size based on the determined delay and a target transmit buffer delay. An indication of a modified TCP window size is sent to a TCP server of the system in an acknowledge packet. Embodiments of the invention are particularly suitable for TCP flow control in wireless communication systems (e.g., UTRA) systems, and has the advantage that RTT (i.e., the latency of the system) can be substantially guaranteed, irrespective of the throughput that a user is allocated.
