Transpositional modulation communications between devices
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A data traffic management method using transpositional modulation (TM) capable devices, the method comprising:
- identifying, by a network base station, a subset of devices, within a network, that are capable of performing TM communications;
determining, by the network base station, that an amount of data traffic communicated using non-TM signals within the network meets or exceeds a threshold value; and
in response, shifting, by the network base station, a portion of the data traffic communicated using non-TM signals to TM signals by transmitting data to the devices included in the subset of the devices using TM signals.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining, by a first device, that a second device is within range for direct communications and that the second device is capable of performing transpositional modulation (TM) communications. Determining to use transpositional modulation to send data to the second device. Sending the data to the second device using a TM signal.

8. A network base station comprising:
-
one or more processors; a transpositional modulation (TM) transmitter coupled to the one or more processors; a TM receiver coupled to the one or more processors; and a data store coupled to the one or more processors having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform operations comprising; identifying a subset of devices, within a network, that are capable of performing TM communications; determining that an amount of data traffic communicated using non-TM signals within the network meets or exceeds a threshold value; and in response, shifting a portion of the data traffic communicated using non-TM signals to TM signals by transmitting data to the devices included in the subset of the devices using TM signals. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
