摘要： A process for merging and using the Mediation Device Protocol with a network layer protocol. Under the merged protocol, each device joining a network enters into two stages: the Set-Up Stage and the Normal Operational Stage. During the Set-Up Stage, the device identifies its neighbors, builds a neighborhood list, obtains a Logical ID, and picks a parent node in the network. After the Set-Up Stage is complete, the device enters the Normal Operational Stage where it will send/receive control and data messages, invite and help new nodes to join the network, recover from broken links or topology changes, and other normal network operations.

摘要： A cluster tree network formed by self-organization of a number of nodes. The method of self-organization includes processes for cluster formation, cluster network maintenance, intra-cluster communication. In the cluster formation process, each node discovers if any neighboring node is a cluster head or if any node is already a member of a cluster (thus making it a networked node), and if a cluster head or a networked node is discovered, each node establishes a communication link with the cluster head or the networked node. If no cluster head or networked node is discovered, the node itself becomes a cluster head. The network is maintained by each node periodically broadcasting a HELLO message to neighboring nodes, receiving responses to the HELLO message and updating a neighbor list in accordance with responses to the HELLO message. Multi-cluster networks are also provided using the processes of inter-cluster network formation, inter-cluster network maintenance, and inter-cluster communication. The resulting network has one or more clusters of nodes, each with a cluster head and a number of member nodes, each assigned a node identifier by the cluster head. In a multi-cluster network, a designated device assigns identifies to each cluster head in the network. Border nodes, which are members of at least two clusters, act as routers connecting the clusters and relaying information packets between the clusters.

摘要： A system and method for orthogonal modulation of signals in communication systems. In the transmitter, differentially coded symbols are used to select time-shifted code sequences. The timing, or code position, of a code sequence is determined at the receiver by comparison to the previous code from the same channel, thus eliminating the need for dual-channel transmission and eliminating error due to differences in path propagation time. A fixed preamble code is also used to synchronize the receiver.

摘要： A low power consumption protocol for low power communication devices attached to an asynchronous network is described. In this protocol, a communication device is used as a high communication duty cycle Mediation Device (MD), thus permitting other communication devices to use a low communication duty cycle framing structure. The MD functions as a storage and retrieval service for messages between two devices when one device is not able to communicate. When the previously unavailable device becomes available, it can check in with the MD to retrieve any missed messages and respond to these messages accordingly. In a communication network, each of the low power communication devices can be configured to behave as MD's for a small amount of time. Sharing this responsibility among all communication devices in the network allows each device to maintain an low average communication duty cycle. This technique is applicable to a low power, low cost, zero-configuring, self-organizing, asynchronous network.

摘要： A technique for intra-piconet location determination and tomography is described. This technique uses received signal strength indicator (RSSI) values in conjunction with transmitted power levels to determine the relative location of each device within a small network employing frequency hopped spread spectrum transmission. In addition to the location determination properties of the invention, the geometry of the devices in the network, as well as the path loss information between pairs of devices, may be used to infer the location of absorbers and reflectors within the piconet. This absorption and reflection information may be used in creating the piconet tomography. The approach described in this specification may be applied in conjunction with the Bluetooth wireless Personal Area Network (PAN) specification to determine device locations, mitigate the effects of multi-path, and perform indoor location and security functions, and other application functions requiring cost-effective location determination.

摘要： Location related information is collected for a network of communication devices that each is operable in a coordinating mode and in a non-coordinating mode. While in the coordinating mode, each communication device collects and stores location determining information (410, 420). Using the location determining information collected by one or more of the communication devices over multiple instances of operation in the coordinating mode, location information is calculated or updated for selected devices within the network (510, 520, 530, 540). In one embodiment, each device operates to mediate communication activities among others devices of the network while in the coordinating mode.

摘要： A signaling system is provided in which a spread spectrum code is cyclically shifted by a cyclical shift dictated by a bit pattern of one or more bits. The cyclically shifted spread spectrum code is used to modulate a carrier frequency, and transmitted from a transmitter to a receiver. At the receiver the signal including the cyclically shifted spectrum code is demodulated to recover the cyclically shifted code. The cyclical shift is then determined and the bit pattern which is associated with the cyclical shift is output. The method can be used in direct sequence spread spectrum communication.

摘要： An ad-hoc communication system is established where each node within the system may have multiple children nodes and parent nodes. An address scheme is proposed where each node may comprise more than one address, each address being based upon one of the parent's address. Because each node may have more than one parent, a bridge, or shortcut may exist between network branches.
