A station grouping mechanism has been presented for a wireless device that collects Multi-hop Relay Base Station (MR-BS) and Relay Stations (RSs) into groups according to their locations in a tree topology and assigns them with a phase. Grouping or partitioning MR-BS and RSs and assigning a distinct phase to the group prevent the MR-BS and the RSs from transmitting and receiving at the same time.

Beamforming with nulling techniques for wireless communications networks are disclosed. For example, an apparatus may include a beamforming module and a weight determination module. The beamforming module applies beamforming weights to a downlink user channel with a first mobile station. The weight determination module determines the beamforming weights based on user channel information and interfering channel information. This user channel information is received from the first mobile station and includes characteristics of the downlink user channel. However, the interfering channel information includes characteristics of one or more downlink interfering channels received by one or more further mobile stations. These downlink interfering channels are associated with transmissions across the downlink user channel with the first mobile station.

The invention is directed to systems, methods, and apparatus for carrying out multi-stage amplification reactions, especially under fluidly closed conditions. In one aspect, methods of the invention are carried out in a fluidly closed reaction system that permits the isolation of a portion of a first (or prior) reaction mixture and its use as a sample or specimen in a second (or subsequent) reaction mixture, thereby substantially avoiding interfering effects that first reaction components may have in the second reaction if both reaction mixtures were simply combined together. In this aspect, systems, methods, and apparatus of the invention may be used with any amplification reaction that permits multiple stages of amplification based on the use of nested primers.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods, computer-readable media and system configurations for stochastic power management of one or more computer systems. A method may include ascertaining a workload of a plurality of computer systems (e. g. , a data center). Additionally or alternatively, a method may include initiating, by a control module operated by a processor of a first of the plurality of computer systems, a stochastic power management process to manage power consumption of the first of the plurality of computer systems. The stochastic power management process may be conditionally initiated based at least in part on the ascertained workload of the plurality of computer systems. The stochastic power management process may include a plurality of virtual machine management actions having corresponding probabilities being taken, one or more of which may result in power savings. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Techniques involving beamforming are disclosed. For example, For instance an apparatus may select a first mobile station served by a first base station and a second mobile station served by a second base station. Based on this selection, a quality metric may be determined that is based on a strength of a user link and a strength of an interfering link. The user link is associated with service of the first mobile station and the interfering link is associated with service of the second mobile station. When the quality metric is greater than a predetermined threshold, the apparatus may designate the first and second mobile stations as suitable for beamforming service in a same resource allocation. Also, techniques are disclosed for determining whether a mobile station is a cell edge mobile station.

FCH locations are mapped to preamble sequence sets to allow more than three stations to transmit their FCHs with minimized or reduced interference. A lower interference environment may be provided to transmit the FCH within each DL relay phase when the number of stations within the phase is less than the number (L) of distinct FCH locations. With more than L stations in a DL relay phase, a reduced interference environment for FCH transmission may be achieved by assigning the same FCH location to RSs that are far away from each other.

An enhanced beamforming with interference nulling method is an improvement over prior art beamforming with interference nulling techniques. The enhanced method includes two scheduling schemes that allow all base stations to schedule their cell edge users independently and determine the information exchange among base stations over the backbone that is needed to support the scheduling activity. The method uses grouping information to perform distributed scheduling among base stations to schedule downlink transmission to cell edge users, while reducing interference to cell edge users served by neighboring base stations. The enhanced method demonstrates the base station-to-base station coordination and information exchange that is needed to enable independent base station scheduling of their cell edge users.

Embodiments of a base station and methods for allocating uplink bandwidth using SDMA are generally described herein. In some embodiments, uplink bandwidth request messages are received on a bandwidth request contention channel from one or more subscriber stations. The uplink bandwidth request messages are generated by the subscriber stations by modulating pilot subcarriers of a randomly selected disjoint pilot pattern with a randomly selected orthogonal sequence. The base station allocates uplink bandwidth to the subscriber stations when the uplink bandwidth request messages are successfully detected and decoded. The base station uses an SDMA technique to determine channel responses based on the orthogonal sequences to detect and decode the uplink bandwidth request messages.
