Patent number: 11026164Abstract: A method for wireless automatic networking includes: pre-selecting N frequencies for frequency-hopping, if a relay node requires frequency hopping, then transmitting a beacon to routing nodes, if the routing nodes do not receive the beacon, then the routing nodes hop frequencies, search, and track until the beacon is received; work frequencies of the relay node, of the routing nodes, and of a terminal node are established in a shared channel; then, insofar as the transmit powers of the nodes are optimized, each routing node is tested for the presence of a frequency conflict with other routing nodes; if found, then frequencies are reassigned to the conflicting routing nodes until none of the frequencies of the routing nodes overlap each other; the relay node sequentially loads the frequencies of the routing nodes, and when frequency loading is completed for all of the routing nodes, a network enters a normal working state.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2018Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Inventor: Bing Dong

Patent number: 11025336Abstract: Operating a communication system comprises providing N transmitting antennas (TA) for transmitting symbol streams (SST) and K ground receivers (GR) which may be provided with symbol streams (SST) transmitted by transmitting antennas (TA). Transmitting antennas (TA) are located with a distance from Earth (E). Ground receivers (GR) are spatially separated from each other, wherein the constraint K>N applies. The method includes: simultaneously transmitting N symbol streams (SST) by N transmitting antennas (TA), receiving a linear combination of N simultaneously transmitted symbol streams (SST) by each ground receiver (GR), respectively, determining the respective linear combination for N transmitting antennas (TA) and each of the K ground receivers (GR), respectively, deciding on the basis of the determined linear combinations which of the K ground receivers (GR) is assigned to a respective common receiver group in order to be simultaneously and with the same frequency provided with symbol streams (SST).Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2018Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: NEOSAT GmbHInventors: Andreas Knopp, Thomas Delamotte, Christian Hofmann, Robert Schwarz, Kai-Uwe Storek

Patent number: 11026287Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is disclosed that comprises a processor configured to selectively enable and disable reception of downlink signaling and configured to monitor a buffer of the WTRU for data to transmit. The WTRU comprises a transmitter configured to transmit, while reception of the downlink signaling is disabled, a channel allocation request in response to data in the monitored buffer. The processor is configured, in response to the data in the monitored buffer, to enable reception of the downlink signaling to allow the WTRU to receive an uplink channel allocation. The transmitter is configured, in response to the WTRU receiving an uplink channel allocation, to transmit uplink data on an uplink channel. The processor is configured to track a time when HARQ feedback is expected to be received in response to the transmitted uplink data, and configured to receive the HARQ feedback at the expected time.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: INTERDIGITAL TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Stephen E. Terry, Guodong Zhang, Stephen G. Dick
