Abstract
A method comprising receiving a plurality of data packets each associated with one of a plurality of carriers, deriving an input bit stream indicative of the receipt of the plurality of data packets, utilizing an output block code to convert the input bit stream into an output bit stream, and transmitting the output bit stream to at least one of the plurality of carriers.
Claims36
A method comprising:
- receiving at least one data packets from each of a plurality of carriers;
- deriving an input bit stream indicative of an attribute of said at least one data packets from each of said plurality of carriers;
- utilizing an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream;
- and
- transmitting said output bit stream to at least one of said plurality of carriers.
A mobile station comprising:
- a receiver to receive a plurality of data packets over a plurality of carriers, a signal processor coupled to said receiver to derive an input bit stream indicative of an attribute of said plurality of data packets, and to utilize an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream, and a transmitter to transmit said output bit stream to said plurality of carriers.
An apparatus comprising:
- a receiver to receive a plurality of data packets, a signal processor coupled to said receiver to derive an input bit stream indicative of an attribute of said plurality of data packets, and to utilize an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream, and a transmitter to transmit said output bit stream.
A mobile station system comprising:
- means for receiving at least one data packets from each of a plurality of carriers;
- means for deriving an input bit stream indicative of an attribute of said plurality of data packets;
- means for utilizing an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream;
- and
- means for transmitting said output bit stream to at least one of said plurality of carriers
- wherein said output block code is derived from a first block code.
A program of machine-readable instructions, tangibly embodied on an information bearing medium and executable by a digital data processor, to perform actions directed toward communicating feedback in communication systems, the actions comprising:
- receiving at least one data packets from each of a plurality of carriers;
- deriving an input bit stream indicative of said receipt of said at least one data packets;
- utilizing an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream;
- and
- transmitting said output bit stream to at least one of said plurality of carriers.
A method comprising:
- receiving at least one data packets from each of a plurality of carriers;
- deriving an input bit stream indicative of an attribute of said at least one data packets from each of said plurality of carriers;
- utilizing an output block code to convert said input bit stream into an output bit stream;
- and
- transmitting said output bit stream to at least one of said plurality of carriers.
