Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for delivering data within a frame to a peer station, the frame having at least a first and a second symbol. The method comprises determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold, loading at least a portion of the data within at least the second symbol in response to determining the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold to provide a new frame, and transmitting the new frame.
Claims17
A method for delivering data within a frame to a peer station, the frame having at least a first and a second symbol, comprising:
- determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold;
- loading at least a portion of the data within at least the second symbol in response to determining the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold to provide a new frame;
- transmitting the new frame, wherein transmitting the new frame includes first negotiating a new bit rate with the peer station before transmitting the modified frame;
- and
- deactivating Trellis Coding Modulation and Viterbi decoding.
A method for delivering data within a frame to a peer station, the frame having at least a first and a second symbol, comprising:
- determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold;
- loading at least a portion of the data within at least the second symbol in response to determining the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold to provide a new frame;
- and
- transmitting the new frame;
- and
- wherein transmitting the new frame includes first negotiating a new bit rate with the peer station before transmitting the modified frame;
- and
- wherein determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold is in response to determining if the usage drops below a bit rate negotiated with the peer station.
A method for delivering data within a frame to a peer station, the frame having at least a first and a second symbol, comprising:
- determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold;
- loading at least the portion of the data within a plurality of symbols in a manner that data in at least one of the plurality of symbols is equal or below the coding-gain threshold;
- and
- transmitting the new frame;
- and
- wherein transmitting the new frame includes first negotiating a new bit rate with the peer station before transmitting the modified frame;
- and
- wherein loading at least the portion of the data within a plurality of symbols comprises apportioning the portion of the data equally within the plurality of symbols.
An apparatus for delivering data to a peer station within a frame having at least a first and a second symbol, the apparatus comprising:
- a control logic capable of:
- determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold;
- and
- loading at least a portion of the data within at least the second symbol in response to determining the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold to provide a new frame;
- a transmitter capable of transmitting the new frame;
- and
- an error control block capable of providing Trellis coding and Viterbi decoding, wherein the control logic is capable of controlling the error control block to terminate Trellis Coding Modulation and Viterbi decoding.
An apparatus for delivering data to a peer station within a frame having at least a first and a second symbol, the apparatus comprising:
- a control logic capable of:
- determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to a coding-gain threshold;

- loading at least a portion of the data within at least the second symbol in response to determining the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold to provide a new frame;
- and
- a transmitter capable of transmitting the new frame;
- and
- wherein the control logic is capable of determining whether the data in the first symbol is greater than or equal to the coding-gain threshold is in response to determining if the usage drops below a bit rate negotiated with the peer station.

- and
- a transmitter capable of transmitting the new frame;
- and
- wherein the control logic is capable of loading at least the portion of the data within at least the second symbol includes loading at least the portion of the data within a plurality of symbols in a manner that data in at least one of the plurality of symbols is equal or below the coding-gain threshold;
- and
- wherein the control logic is capable of loading at least the portion of the data within a plurality of symbols comprises apportioning the portion of the data equally within the plurality of symbols.
