Abstract
Techniques, devices, and systems that include mechanisms for connectionless communications in wireless communication networks or systems.
Claims18
A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- monitoring a wireless communication channel for an access probe sent from a wireless device;
- extracting a base station identifier from the access probe, wherein the base station identifier is included in the access probe to identify a base station whose radio signal is received by the wireless device;
- and
- operating the base station to transmit an acknowledgement to the wireless device.
1 more element
A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- selecting a base station based on radio signals received from two or more base stations;
- sending an access probe, over a wireless communication channel, that includes a base station identifier associated with the selected base station, wherein the wireless communication channel is a reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel for unscheduled communications from wireless devices;
- and
- monitoring for an acknowledgment of a reception of the access probe.
1 more element
A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- providing a reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel for unscheduled communications from wireless devices;
- and
- operating base stations to communicate with wireless devices using the reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel
A system for wireless communications, comprising:
- base stations configured to communicate with wireless devices to transmit data over a reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel allocated for unscheduled communications from wireless devices.
A wireless device, comprising:
- a mechanism to interface with a network;
- and
- a mechanism to send data from the network over a reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel.
A method for wireless communications, comprising:
- monitoring multiple wireless channels to receive data from wireless devices, the reverse link wireless channels including a reverse link connection oriented wireless channel associated with scheduled communications from one or more wireless devices and a reverse link connectionless oriented wireless channel associated with unscheduled communications from one or more wireless devices;
- and
- transmitting data over one or more forward link wireless channels to one or more wireless devices, the forward link wireless channels including a forward link connection oriented wireless channel associated with scheduled communications to one or more wireless devices and a forward link connectionless oriented wireless channel associated with unscheduled communications to one or more wireless devices.
