  • Patent number: 10979205
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage devices for reducing inter-cellsite interference during full-duplex communication. A system receives a channel amplitude and a phase estimate between a first station and a second station, the first station and the second station creating inter-cellsite interference on a channel during full-duplex communications. The system calculates a level of the inter-cellsite interference between the first station and the second station based on the channel amplitude and the phase estimate and generates a cancellation signal based on the inter-cellsite interference. The system then communicates the cancellation signal to the first station for transmission with additional data during additional full-duplex communications.

  • Patent number: 8351788
    Abstract: A method and system for encoding and determining labels in a Dual Polarization (DP) Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) signal is provided. A label frame, signature sequence, and data payload are combined using a complementary constant-weight code encoding (CCWC) encoder, the output of which is deinterleaved and differentially precoded to generate a polarized tributary of a DP-QPSK signal. This encoding can be duplicated for a second tributary of the DP-QPSK signal. The label can be determined using one or more polarizers and corresponding low-speed photodetectors, each applied to a copy of the DP-QPSK signal. The strongest output of the photodetectors is then used to determine the label. Alternatively, the DP-QPSK signal can be viewed as having XI, XQ, PH, and PV tributaries. These tributaries can then be translated into XI, XQ, YI, and YQ tributaries are encoded into a standard DP-QPSK signal.

  • Patent number: 8019222
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting labels in an optical packet network. Groups of K payload bits are encoded into blocks of N bits by using a code in which each of the groups of K payload bits is represented by a corresponding one of at least two distinct codewords of differing weights to form coded payload packet data, where K and N are integers and K<N. Composite packet data is produced by choosing among the at least two distinct codewords according to a value of chip data based, at least partly, on label data. An optical signal for transmission via the optical network is produced by applying the composite packet data to an optical transmitter.

  • Patent number: 7791511
    Abstract: A method for encoding and decoding codes of constant weight that is based on conjugate dissections, which progressively modifies element values of an input vector to satisfy the constraint that each encoded symbol is to comprise integer component elements even when the encoded symbol is generated through processing that involved permuting.

  • Patent number: 7587641
    Abstract: A method that employs a piecewise linear algorithm, P, to map m-dimensional symbols into code tuples, followed by the construction of codes of weight m from the code tuples. To reverse the operation, constant weight codes are converted to code tuples, and a reverse piecewise linear algorithm P? is used to map the code tuples into symbols, from which data is recovered. The m-dimensional symbols are obtained from mapping of input data into the symbols, which are contained within an m-dimensional parallelopiped, with each coordinate having a different span but the symbols along each of the coordinate are equally spaced apart. The code tuples, which are obtained by employing process P, are contained within an m-dimensional simplex.
