- FIG. 1 illustrates a network 100 that includes an Access Point (AP) 110 and mobile stations (STAs) 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 .
- wireless network 100 is a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN).
- WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
- mobile stations 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 and access point 110 may operate in compliance with a wireless network standard such as ANSI/IEEE Std. 802.11, 1999 Edition, although this is not a limitation of the present invention.
- the term “802.11” refers to any past, present, or future IEEE 802.11 standard, or extension thereto, including, but not limited to, the 1999 edition.
- Mobile stations 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 may be any type of terminal or mobile station capable of communicating in network 100 .
- the mobile stations may be computers, personal digital assistants, wireless-capable cellular phones, home audio or video appliances, or the like.
- Access point 110 communicates with mobile station 120 (also referred to as “STA 1 ”) using signal 122 .
- Access point 110 may also communicate with mobile station 130 (also referred to as “STA 2 ”) using signal 132 , mobile station 140 (also referred to as “STA 3 ”) using signal 142 and mobile station 150 (also referred to as “STA 4 ”) using signal 152 .
- Signals 122 , 132 , 142 and 152 are transmitted through a wireless channel in free space between access point 110 and the various mobile stations.
- Access point 110 includes a processor 160 and a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver to receive and transmit modulated signals from one or more antennas.
- the analog front end transceiver may be provided as a stand-alone integrated analog circuit, or alternatively, be embedded with processor 160 as a mixed-mode integrated circuit.
- the received modulated signals are frequency down-converted, filtered, and converted to digital signals.
- Access point 110 also includes a scheduler 170 , a fragmentor 180 and a code rate adjuster 190 whose features are further described herein.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a protocol in accordance with the present invention for downlink transmissions.
- Channel access marks the beginning of the bi-directional communications between the access point and a mobile station.
- the channel is accessed by the access point sending a Clear-To-Send (CTS) frame that broadcasts a protected time interval, but other schemes to broadcast a protected time interval may be applied.
- CTS Clear-To-Send
- the protected time interval is announced by access point 110 such that no mobile station contends for the medium during that time interval.
- the time interval length may be equal to the length of a buffered packet as long as the transmission opportunity (TXOP) in the 802.11e standard, or another time period without limiting the present invention.
- Access point 110 fills the M spatial channels using the data packets buffered for all stations. Note that this feature is in contrast to conventional Spatial-Division Multiple-Access (SDMA) systems where the access point fills the M channels only using packets buffered for M stations.
- SDMA Spatial-Division
- scheduler 170 schedules data packets that may have differing lengths for transmission to the selected mobile stations, and as shown, arranges those data packets based on transmission times to send on each of the spatial channels.
- scheduler 170 One feature of scheduler 170 is that the system resources of SDMA are efficiently utilized by accounting for the differences in packet lengths to fill the spatial channels by signals in time. Accordingly, the features of scheduler 170 significantly improve the throughput of SDMA on the spatial channels during the protected time interval (beginning at time to) where data packets are transmitted to the mobile stations.
- Scheduler 170 fills M spatial channels by scheduling the traffic for M stations at any time instant, where M is a constant less than or equal to the number of antennas N at the access point. For simplicity of description and by way of example, N antennas may form M spatial channels for M stations at any time instant.
- the system network 100 throughput is dramatically increased when scheduler 170 fills the M spatial channels at all times.
- the algorithm of scheduler 170 operates to maximize the usage of the M channels, maximize the total throughput of the M channels, minimize the average bit-error rates that may be affected by the interference between spatial channels, and minimize the average latency.
- adaptive antenna arrays are used in conjunction with a beam forming algorithm to achieve spatial diversity within each spatial cell and implement SDMA. That is, signals output by the antennas are directionally formed by selectively energizing different antenna sensors with different signal gains so that remote terminals or mobile stations in one portion of a spatial cell may communicate with access point 110 while other remote mobile stations in a different portion of the spatial cell may communicate with the same access point, even if they are using the same tone set and code.
- access point 110 in the SDMA downlink first selects a group of mobile stations having buffered data, and then forms spatial channels using the adaptive antenna arrays to send data to the mobile stations. To transmit data on the spatial channels, the access point retrieves the antenna resources to form that spatial channel, with capabilities to form new channels for a waiting mobile station developed on the fly.
- the access point broadcasts a clear-to-send (CTS) packet to hold the medium for a certain duration.
- Data packets are then sent to mobile stations 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 using only two spatial channels at any time instant.
- the scheduler 170 designates two data packets, i.e., labeled Ack+Data 1 and Data 1 , for mobile station 120 .
- Scheduler 170 does not place the data packets into two spatial channels at the same time since mobile station 120 may not be equipped with multiple antennas to receive the two packets simultaneously. Therefore, scheduler 170 does not exchange the position of the latter data packet labeled Data 1 with either the data packet labeled Data 2 or the data packet labeled Ack+Data 3 .
- the algorithm of scheduler 170 does not exchange the data packet labeled Data 1 with the data packet labeled Data 4 .
- FIG. 3 illustrates a protocol that includes an access point generated schedule for uplink transmissions in accordance with the present invention.
- scheduler 170 first schedules the transmission intervals for different mobile stations according to the traffic information about the stations such as, for example, packet size, queue size and priority. This information may be acquired by access point 110 through polling or piggy-back feedback from mobile stations 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 .
- the optimization goals of scheduler 170 are the same as those listed for the downlink.
- the access point broadcasts the schedule to all the mobile stations and listens to the uplink packets.
- the acknowledgements of the uplink data packets may be sent in normal downlink packets.
- the access point broadcasts the schedule packet in order to both announce the transmission opportunities (or intervals) and hold the medium for a certain duration.
- the addressed stations respond by sending their data packets within the specified intervals.
- Mobile station 120 (STA 1 ) is assigned two time intervals and that station sends two packets in the first interval and one packet in the second interval.
- Access point 110 may broadcast the schedule using an omni-directional antenna, since the schedule is directed collectively to mobile stations 120 , 130 , 140 and 150 , and there are only two spatial channels available at each time instant.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a protocol that includes multiple schedules generated by access point 110 for uplink transmissions in accordance with the present invention. If the omni-directional antenna can not reach mobile stations based on distance, several schedule packets instead of one may be sent through spatial channels with higher antenna gains.
- the figure illustrates an example for two schedule packets, where the first schedule packet is prepared for mobile stations 120 (STA 1 ) and 130 (STA 2 ) and the second schedule packet is prepared for mobile stations 140 (STA 3 ) and 150 (STA 4 ).
- the first schedule packet schedules the uplink time interval using spatial channels pointed to STA 1 and STA 2
- the second schedule packet schedules the uplink time interval using spatial channels pointed to STA 3 and STA 4 .
- FIG. 5 illustrates a transmission of data packets that incorporates fragmentation at the end of a protected interval to improve the channel efficiency.
- the fragmentor 180 in access point 110 may employ fragmentation to completely fill the space-time channels in the downlink.
- the access point may fill the channels of data packets next to each other and fragment some packets at the end of the protected interval, although this is not a limitation of the present invention.
- the data packet prepared for mobile station 150 (STA 4 ) is fragmented to fit the protected interval. Note that since data packets Data 2 and Data 3 are sent to different mobile stations through different spatial channels, they are placed next to each other and do not need to be separated by a Short Inter-Frame Spacing (SIFS).
- SIFS Short Inter-Frame Spacing
- FIG. 6 illustrates a data packet transmission that incorporates a code rate adjustment at the end of a protected interval.
- Code rate adjustment changes the code rates of the Forward Error-Correction (FEC) codes in the packets and may be employed to fill the space-time channels.
- FEC Forward Error-Correction
- Code rate adjustment can be applied to multiple packets within the protected interval. Note that a higher code rate may increase the chance that the packet gets lost, while the lower code rate may increase the length of the data packets.
- the access point and the mobile stations may adjust the packet length by changing the code rate and making the appropriate tradeoffs. Since the access point usually is not power critical, reducing the code rate to fill the channels may be desired. As illustrated in the figure, the code rate of the latter Data 1 packet has been reduced such that its reliability is increased without reducing the system throughput.
