US Patent:

20070117515, May 24, 2007

Filed:

Nov 23, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/286502

Inventors:

John Sinibaldi - Pompano Beach FL, US
Conrad Smith - Fort Lauderdale FL, US
Nick Glantzis - Deerfield Beach FL, US
Geeta Pasrija - San Jose CA, US
Luis Llorens - Lighthouse Point FL, US

International Classification:

H04B 17/00

US Classification:

455067110

Abstract:

A system and method for processing a wireless burst transmission. A sensor measures the energy of the wireless burst transmission. A first amplifier is in electrical communication with the sensor. A second amplifier is in electronic communication with the sensor. The first amplifier and the second amplifier are initially enabled and are selectively disabled based on an energy measurement from the sensor.

Inventors:

- Davie FL, US
Conrad C. SMITH - Parkland FL, US
Ryan BUSSER - Fort Lauderdale FL, US

International Classification:

H04L 1/18
H04W 52/02

Abstract:

A method and device are disclosed that enable communication between an airborne STA and a ground based AP in the presence of a multitude of other ground based networks that would normally cause such interference that communication would not be possible. A succession of control packets are sent prior to an air to ground communication such that the ground based networks delay their traffic allowing the wanted acknowledgment packet to be received. A succession of control packets are sent followed by a PS poll or data null packet prior to a ground to air communication such that the wanted ground to air packet is sent at a known time and the other ground based networks delay their traffic allowing the wanted ground to air packet to be received.

H04W 72/04

Abstract:

A monitoring station and method for increasing a frequency of wireless packet reception. The monitoring station includes a physical layer (PHY) having a plurality of radio frequency (RF) receivers, processing circuitry comprising a processor, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed, configure the processor to control timing offsets of each of the plurality of RF receivers such that each of the plurality of RF receivers has a different timing offset with respect to each other. The monitoring station includes an RF signal router configured to receive an incoming RF signal and route the RF signal to the plurality of RF receivers, and vary at least one of signal gain and signal loss for the incoming RF signal across each of the plurality of RF receivers such that each of the plurality of RF receivers has a different effective noise figure with respect to each other.
