Appl. No.:

11/765697

Inventors:

Prabhakar Chitrapu - Blue Bell PA, US
Paul Russell - Pennington NJ, US

Assignee:

INTERDIGITAL TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

H04L 27/20

US Classification:

375308000

Abstract:

The present invention relates to hierarchical modulation (HM) and demodulation for global system for mobile communications (GSM)/enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE) radio access network (GERAN) evolution. In one embodiment, HM symbols are generated by generating primary modulated symbols based on a first bit group, generating secondary modulated symbols based on a second bit group, and combining the primary modulated symbols and the secondary modulated symbols. In another embodiment, the HM symbols are demodulated. In yet another embodiment, a received GERAN signal is converted to baseband complex symbol values, which are processed to produce training symbols and data symbols that carry pilot symbols. Channel parameters of the radio channel are estimated based on the training symbols. An equalized signal is generated based on the estimated channel parameters and data symbol. Primary and secondary demodulated symbols are generated based on the equalized signal.

US Classification:

370329000, 370336000, 370345000, 455450000, 455068000

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for enhancing communication services in an evolved global system for mobile communications (GSM)/enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE) radio access network (GERAN) are disclosed. At least one full rate physical channel and/or half rate physical channel are provided to support communication services that do not require higher order modulation (HOM), and at least one fractional rate physical channel is provided to support the communication services that require HOM. The fractional rate channel occupies N timeslots for every M frames of a channel, whereby N/M is less than one half. The fractional rate channel may be used when communication services are provided on a channel that uses either 16 or 32 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) in a dual transfer mode (DTM) session. The communications services include at least one of voice communication services, circuit switched (CS) services and supplementary services.

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

A machine-to-machine (M2M) node is configured to provide a communication management function to facilitate communication between a first service layer in a first network and a second service layer in a second network. The M2M node is configured to store a plurality of attributes for use by the communication management function and to receive via the first network, a first message from a first application in the first service layer. The M2M node is configured to determine, based on at least a first attribute identifying an expiration time after which the communication management function does not facilitate communication, that the communication management function is available to process the first message. The M2M node is configured to determine, based on at least a second attribute defining an access control list identifying applications in the first service layer, that the communication management function is available to process the first message.
