Definitions
- the present invention is directed to assigning channels in a wireless communication system and, more particularly, to a method for assigning communication channels to radio access ports in the unlicensed personal communications spectrum.
- the Federal Communications Commission has designat ⁇ ed the frequency band between 1920 and 1930 MHz as an unli ⁇ censed band for isochronous personal communications services (UPCS) .
- This unlicensed band will be used primarily to support wireless telephone and circuit switched data.
- the maximum permitted transmission power of 55 mW for 300 kHz bandwidth limits UPCS to indoor use, because the power level is too low for effective use outdoors.
- Fig. 1 is an example of a simple UPCS system 50.
- a customer has a mobile terminal (MT) 52, such as a wireless telephone which is in wireless communication with a radio port (RP) 54 connected to a radio port control unit (RPCU) 56.
- RP radio port
- a UPCS system 50 may have a number of RPs 54 connected to the same or a different RPCU 56.
- the RPCU 56 may be connected to a communications network, such as an ordinary telephone line 58 which connects to a local switch 60.
- the switch connects to a telephone network, such as a public switched telephone network (PSTN) 62.
- PSTN public switched telephone network
- the customer may have personal informa ⁇ tion, such as a telephone or personal communications number, call forwarding and routing information, account information, credit and billing information, and the like stored in a telephone network database, called a Home Location Register (HLR) 64 servicing the customer's home area.
- HLR Home Location Register
- the 1920-1930 MHz band was previously allocated to licensed point- o-point microwave communication.
- the FCC has instituted strict requirements on the use of UPCS systems, at least until all of the point-to-point microwave systems are cleared from the band. It is expected that this clearing process may take as long as seven years. To this end, the FCC requires that UPCS components cannot transmit if they move outside of certain authorized areas.
- the UPCS band is unlicensed, it is available for use without paying the FCC a license fee for each piece of radio equipment installed.
- the FCC requires an etiquette for obtaining channels in the UPCS band. This etiquette is called the Listen-Before- Talk (LBT) etiquette.
- LBT Listen-Before- Talk
- each RP must find an available channel in the band on which to transmit .
- the FCC has divided the band into eight 1.25 MHz channels.
- “Narrow band” e.g., less than 625 kHz occupied signal bandwidth
- “Wide band” communications devices are required to begin searching for available channels in the higher 3 MHz in the band. The following description will refer to narrow band communications devices, but the reader understands that it is equally applicable to wide band communications devices.
- protocols in the UPCS spectrum may divide each 1.25 MHz channel into a number of system channels.
- the RP 54 begins its search by measuring a first channel (e.g., randomly selected from the system channels contained in the bottom 3 MHz of the band) in the band to determine if interference below a threshold (the FCC requires the threshold to be no greater than 30 dB above a background level, except in special cases) . Interference above the threshold level indicates that the channel may already be taken by a nearby RP and is not available.
- the RP monitors the channel for the threshold level of interference for 10 ms before it can transmit, to make sure that another RP has not already acquired the channel. If the channel has interference beyond the threshold at any time during the 10 ms period, it immedi- ately abandons that channel and searches the next higher channel to determine if it is available.
- An RP must acquire the first available channel it monitors and detects no interference above the threshold for 10 ms. Once the RP 54 has acquired a channel, it is required to transmit immediately on that channel to "advertise" its availability for communica ⁇ tions with an MT 52. If the RP 54 does not establish communi ⁇ cation with an MT within that 30 second time period, the RP must relinquish the channel, and begin again its search for an available channel.
- One problem with this etiquette is that a successful UPCS spectrum implementation having a large number of RPs should frame synchronize the RPs.
- This frame synchronization makes it likely that more than one RP will simultaneously monitor a channel for 10 ms and then acquire it, resulting in unaccept- able co-channel interference. Once two (or more) synchronized RPs acquire the same channel, it is likely that they will continue to do so, rendering the ports relatively useless.
- PACS-UB personal access communications for unlicensed bands
- the reader understands, however, that the principles of the invention apply to any protocol operable in the UPCS spectrum or which uses an LBT etiquette.
- PACS-UB further divides each of the eight 1.25 MHZ channels into four 300 kHz system channels, providing 32 total channels.
- Fig. 2 illustrates a preferred system channel structure 200 for PACS-UB.
- a channel separation 202 of 100 kHz ensures that no channel overlaps the FCC 1.25 MHZ chan ⁇ nels.
- a 50 kHz guard band 204 is found at the beginning and end of the isochronous band.
- PACS-UB meets the FCC UPCS requirements by using a "blinking beacon” protocol.
- This "blinking beacon” is preferably accomplished using the PACS-UB hyperfra e and superframe structures, illustrated in Fig. 3.
- Fig. 3A illustrates a preferred PACS-UB hyperframe 300 which comprises 30 one second superframes 302. This arrangement satisfies the FCC requirement that an RP 50 may only hold a acquired channel for 30 seconds, unless it establishes communication with an MT 52.
- These superframes 152 are system broadcast channel superframes (SBC-SF) .
- SBC-SF system broadcast channel superframes
- Each access SBC-SF is preferably divided into four phases 304, 306, 308, 310. These phases are:
- a first 200 ms period 304 (phase A) during which an active RP 54 transmits incoming call alerts or short messages to the MT 52 ;
- phase B a second 200 ms period 306 (phase B) during which an active RP 54 transmits system and other service information; 3. a 400 ms period 308 (phase C) for idle ports to select a channel on which to transmit based on signal strength; and 4. a third 200 ms period 310 (phase D) permitting MTs
- FIG. 3B shows a second type of superframe 302' ' called a basic superframe.
- An RP transmits a basic superframe 302'' when it has acquired a channel and is seeking to establish communication with an MT.
- Each basic SBC-SF is preferably divided into two phases, 304, 306' . These phases are: (1) a first 200 ms 304 (phase A) during which an active RP transmits incoming alerts or short messages to the MT 52; and (2) an 800 ms 306' (phase B) during which an active RP transmits system and other service information.
- an RP To conform to the access etiquette, an RP must first employ an access SBC-SF to selective, suitable transmission channel. Once a channel has been identified, an RP uses the basic SBC-SF format for further transmissions for up to 30 seconds for unacknowledged transmission.
- Fig. 3C illustrates a hyperframe 300 of an unacknowledged RP transmission.
- a hyperframe begins with an access SBC-SF 302' to acquire a channel .
- the RP acquires a transmission channel and begins "advertising" for an MT with which to establish communication. This is done by broadcasting a number of one-second long basic superframes 302' ' .
- the RP repeats the basic SBC-SF if it does not establish communication with an MT. This continues for thirty seconds.
- the RP must relinquish access to the transmission channel. After the channel is relinquished, the RP again transmits an access SBC-SF in order to acquire a channel.
- the present invention provides for a method wherein a number of RPs stagger the times in which they begin searching for available channels.
- one of a plurality of RPs in a UPCS system is selected to have a first start time.
- the system determines which RPs in the system can "hear” the selected RP.
- Each of these RPs is given a unique stagger start time.
- RPs that cannot "hear” each other may be assigned the same stagger start time. This process may be repeated until each RP in the system is assigned a stagger start time.
- each RP may be assigned a unique stagger start time.

- Figs. 5a and 5b are a flow chart of a preferred method according to the present invention
- Fig. 6 is a timing diagram illustrating a port channel assignment according to the present invention.
- the present invention provides a method for a number of RPs to acquire available channels, even if the RPs are located in the same general location and if they are frame synchro ⁇ nized.
- a method according to the present invention provides for staggering the channel searching procedure start times of RPs that can "hear" each other (e.g., can detect each other's transmission ) This avoids co-channel interference because RPs that can detect each others transmissions are prevented from having synchronized 10 ms monitoring periods.
- a pre ⁇ ferred way to accomplish this begins with dividing a PACS-UB superframe phase C into a number of stagger start periods. Fig.
- Phase C 308 is divided into two parts 402, 404
- a first part 402 is divided into a number of timed intervals 406
- the first part 402 be 40 ms divided into sixteen equally spaced 2.5 ms intervals 406.
- a stagger start is timed to begin during each time interval.
- an RP starting its channel searching proce ⁇ dure at a particular time will not have the same 10 ms monitoring period as RPs beginning their searches at other start times, even though there may be other RPs in the same general location also searching for channels.
- the pre ⁇ ferred method there are sixteen stagger starts per superframe (e.g., 16 x 2.5 ms) and 30 superframes per hyperframe. Thus, in this preferred method there are 480 total stagger starts per hyperframe. This permits up to 480 RPs to each have an exclusive stagger start time to begin its channel search.
- Fig. 5 is a flow chart of a preferred method 500 accord ⁇ ing to the present invention.
- the method comprises an initialization phase 502 and an optional iterative phase 504.
- the initialization phase 502 begins by setting each RP 54 in a UPCS system, such as a PACS-UB system, to have a stagger value (STG) equal to -1 and to set a value k, which represents the number of ports assigned a stagger start time, equal to 0 (step 506) .
- the RPCU 56 to which the RPs are connected elects one RP 54 in the system to be "first" (RP X ) ,- and the value of k is increased to k+1 (step 508) . This means that RP X is assigned the first stagger start time period.
- RP will begin its channel search during the first 2.5 ms time period of the first superframe 302 of a hyperframe 300.
- RP begins its channel search at a first frequency (e.g., in the 3 MHz of the band for a narrow band system) .
- the RP may begin searching one of the system channels in the lower 3 MHz of the band.
- the RP randomly selects one of the nine PACS-UB system channels falling entirely within the first 3 MHz. Because RP X is the only RP searching, it is likely to acquire the first channel it monitors and transmits at that first frequency (step 510) .
- All of the other RPs 54 in the system 50 measure the interference on this first frequency caused by RPj' s as transmission (step 512) . All RPs that measure greater than a threshold amount of interference on this first frequency are considered to "hear" RP 1( and thus must have their channel search start staggered to avoid co- channel interference (step 514) . All RPs 54 that "hear" RP ⁇ are assigned unique STG values, to avoid any interference. The number of RPs assigned a stagger start is set as nc, and k is increased to k+nc, the total number of ports with assigned stagger start times (step 514) .
- a system may have up to 480 unique stagger start times.
- the total number of RPs that "hear" RP j. is counted (step 516) . If the total number of RPs 54 that "hear" RPx is equal to the total number of RPs in the system, then the method is complete (step 518) .
- step 5128 If the total number of RPs assigned a stagger start time is less then the total number of RPs in the system (step 518) , then the optional iterative steps 504 are performed. All of the RPs that did not "hear" RP : still have their STG values set to -1 because they have not been assigned stagger start times.
- all of the RPs that have assigned stagger start times perform the channel search and begin transmitting on their acquired channels (step 522) .
- measure the signal strength on all of the channels step 524) .
- All of the ports that "hear" RP k strongly e.g., measured interference on a first frequency higher than a threshold amount), report their measurement on each frequency to the RPCU 54. These RPs are assigned stagger starts based on their measurements on the other channels.
- an RP that "hears" RP k strongly also measures a high interference on a particular frequency it will not be assigned the same stagger start as the RP (or RPs) that were transmitting on that frequency when the signal was detected (step 526) . That is, no RP is assigned a stagger start of any RP that is in interference range with it (i.e., any RP whose transmissions may be detected above a threshold amount by the RP in question) .
- the number of RPs that are assigned stagger starts is again counted (step 528) . If the number of RPs assigned stagger start times equal the total numbers of RPs in the system, then the procedure is complete (step 530) . If unassigned RPs remain, the iterative steps 504 are repeated for the RPs that cannot "hear" RP X or RP k until each RP has an assigned stagger start time.
- Fig. 6 illustrates several benefits of the present invention.
- Fig. 6 is a timing diagram 600 illustrating port assignments for a system having n RPs using a PACS-UB protocol and performing the method of the present invention.
- the stagger start times have already been assigned and the RPs have been operating.
- two superframes 302 are shown: SBC-SF, 602 and SBC-SF, ⁇ 604.
- RP X is assigned the first stagger start interval
- RP 4 is assigned the second
- RP 2 is assigned the third
- RP 3 is assigned the fourth.
- RP n is assigned a stagger start in phase C of the next superframe SBC-SF ⁇ 604.
- RP X has relinquished the channel it has been "advertising" on (e.g., it has completed a hyperframe 300 and no communication was established with an MT 52) .
- RP ⁇ begins its channel search by measuring the interference on available channels during the "measure” interval 608, and the other RPs continue to trans- it . This encourages RP X to acquire a channel to avoid interference from neighboring RPs because it can "hear" their transmissions.
- the RP may perform adaptive, autonomous LBT threshold measurements during the "TH" interval 608 as described in the related application described above.
- RP t acquires a channel, it "advertises” its availability for communication on the acquired channel during the "Xmit" interval 612.
- each RP begins the same process at the RP's assigned stagger start interval, assuming that the RP is not communicating with an MT.
- the idle time 606 is the time between the beginning of phase C and the beginning of an RP's stagger started frequency search. Thus, the idle time for the RP having the first stagger start time is zero.
- This arrange ⁇ ment provides (1) a stable port assignment, which is not required, but provides improved access performance for both initial access and for handoffs,- and (2) reduces battery usage for MTs.
- the present invention is not limited to the disclosed method, but rather various modifications, substitutions, and methods may be used without departing from the scope of the present invention.
- the preferred embodiment was disclosed with reference to a PACS-UB protocol.
- a person skilled in the art understands that the invention may be applied to any protocol operable in the UPCS spectrum or in a system that uses an LBT etiquette.
