A method and system is disclosed for managing performance of a wireless backhaul network through power management, which provides a practical approach to balancing data throughput and fairness. For each transmit frame, one or more power zones is defined, each power zone comprising a set of radio resources operating at one transmit power level P, and the same power zone being defined over the same set of radio resources across all other clusters. The method maximizes the value of weighted weighted-sum utility, using a rate expression based on a CINR function. The optimization comprises a summation of the weighted logarithm of the rate expression plus a non-negative constant value, using a Newton's method approach, for fast and reliable convergence. Optimization may be based on long term averaged channel gains measured for each link. The value of c is selected to achieve a required balance of fairness and data throughput.

Method and apparatus for performance management in wireless backhaul networks via power control

Technologies that, among other things, provide resource allocation in multi-hop wireless networks with relay stations and can be used to supply information to link data packets with a respective resource allocation.

Resource allocation in wireless multi-hop relay networks

Technologies for wireless communications can include communicating connection information that specifies one or more parameters of a connection between a base station and a wireless device. The connection information can be indicative of one or more of: a station identifier, whether data packets associated with the connection include a cyclic redundancy check, and whether data packets associated with the connection include encrypted information. These technologies can include constructing, based on the connection information, a media access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) that includes a header at a beginning portion of the MAC PDU. The header can include one or more of: a first flag that indicates a header type, a second flag that indicates whether there is a subheader inclusion following the header in the MAC PDU, a flow identifier that, together with the station identifier, identifies the connection, and a length value.

Data synchronization for multicast/broadcast service in wireless relay network

Techniques and systems for enhancing quality of service (QoS) in communication networks, including wired and wireless communication networks. Implementations of described techniques and systems can be used to provide path-based QoS with distributed per-hop scheduling for carrying traffic over a multi-hop packet communication network.

Techniques and systems for acknowledging management message reception in a wireless communication system can include operating a first radio station to generate a management message that contains a sequence number unique to the management message and to direct the management message to a second radio station; and operating the second radio station, after receiving the management message from the transmitter, to generate and transmit, before decoding the content of the received the management message, an acknowledgement to the transmitter identifying the received manage message by the sequence number unique to the management message.
