Abstract: Techniques for blind distributed multi-user MIMO enable simultaneous decoding of multiple concurrent wireless transmissions without the need for coordination between wireless devices or a measurement phase. Wireless devices are permitted to transmit independently and at arbitrary times. Concurrent transmissions from wireless devices superimpose in the wireless channel and are received at various base stations. The base stations forward received data samples to a central entity (e.g., a cloud computing service), which uses known preambles to reliably estimate CFOs and channels between the transmitting devices and the receiving base stations while simultaneously recovering the data samples of the individual data streams.

Abstract: A wireless communication network (12) includes one or more nodes (10, 40) that individually or cooperatively prevent affiliated communication modules (14) from being handed over at the same time.

Although not limited to Critical Machine Type Communication, C-MTC, applications, such operations improve connection redundancy and reliability for C-MTC entities that use two or more communication modules (14) for redundant access to a wireless communication network (12).

Abstract: In an aspect, a network may support a number of client devices. In such a network, a client device transmits a request to communicate with a network, establishes a security context, and receives one or more encrypted client device contexts from the network.

The client device transmits a message (e.g., including an uplink data packet) to the network that includes at least one encrypted client device context. Since the network device can reconstruct the context for the client device based on an encrypted client device context, the network device can reduce an amount of the context maintained at the network device in order to support a greater number of client devices.

In this communication technique, the radio node arbitrates (e.g., using a precision time protocol or PTP) with the other radio nodes based on a selection technique to select a synchronization master in the set of radio nodes.

Abstract: A wireless communication network hands-over wireless User Equipment (UE) from a serving cell to a neighbor cell. The serving cell wirelessly exchanges data with the wireless UE and determines uplink interference for a radio band. The serving cell wirelessly transfers an uplink interference offset to the wireless UE that indicates the uplink interference at the serving cell for the radio band.

The serving cell initiates a handover to a neighbor cell responsive to a combination of the downlink signal strength at the wireless UE and the uplink interference for the serving cell falling below a handover threshold. After the handover, the neighbor cell wirelessly exchanges data with the wireless UE over a different radio band.
