First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- under control of one or more computer systems having memory and a processor to execute instructions;
enhancing persistent scheduling with efficient link adaptation capability at a base station by grouping Voice over internet Protocol (VoIP) users andusing an intelligent bitmap mechanism to compactly represent persistent allocations for the users within said group,wherein said grouping is accomplished by defining Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) clusters, andwherein each MCS cluster is comprised of neighboring MCSs that use a same number of resource blocks to transmit a VoIP packet.

10. An apparatus including a wireless station operable in a wireless network, comprising:
-
a processor; a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to; enhance persistent scheduling with efficient link adaptation capability by grouping Voice over internet Protocol (VoIP) users and use an intelligent bitmap mechanism to compactly represent persistent allocations for the users within said user group, wherein a wireless station is selected from the group consisting of base stations and mobile stations wherein said grouping is accomplished by defining Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) clusters, and wherein each MCS in an MCS cluster uses a same number of resource blocks to transmit a VoIP packet. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A non-transitory machine-accessible medium that provides instructions, which when accessed, cause a wireless station having a processor and memory selected from a group consisting of base stations and mobile stations to perform operations comprising:
-
enhancing persistent scheduling with efficient link adaptation capability by grouping Voice over internet Protocol (VoIP) users and using an intelligent bitmap mechanism to compactly represent persistent allocations for the users within said group, wherein said grouping is accomplished by defining Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) clusters, and wherein each MCS in an MCS cluster uses a same number of resource blocks to transmit a VoIP packet. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
