Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Techniques to increase capacity in a wireless communications system. Systematic non-transmission, or “blanking,” of minimal-rate frames transmitted in a communications system is provided. In an exemplary embodiment, eighth rate frames in a cdma2000 voice communications system are systematically substituted with null-rate frames carrying zero traffic bits. The receiver detects the presence of null rate or non-null rate transmissions and processes the received frames accordingly. Techniques for changing the pilot transmission gating pattern to assist the receiver in detecting null rate frames are provided. In another aspect, early termination of a signal transmission over a wireless communications link is provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a base station (BS) transmits power control groups (PCG's) for a frame over a forward link (FL) to a mobile station (MS) until accurate reception of the frame is acknowledged by the MS over a reverse link (RL), possibly before all PCG's of the frame are received.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for early termination of sequential frame transmissions over a communications channel, the method comprising: commencing transmission of a first frame to a receiver, each frame formatted into a plurality of sequential sub-segments and sequentially transmitted without awaiting sub-segment acknowledgment until a successful decode of the first frame; receiving an acknowledgment message from the receiver during the transmission of the first fram…
