A method and transceiver for determining spectrum availability within a give area is disclosed. The given area includes cells in a grid. A belief evaluator receives a measurement from a signal and assigns an instantaneous belief indicator, an instantaneous disbelief indicator and an instantaneous ignorance indicator based on a detection threshold and the power level of the measurement. The indicators quantify the probability of a presence of a transmitter within the grid cell. A belief accumulator uses the instantaneous indicators along with accumulated belief, disbelief and ignorance indicators from previous measurements to determine cumulative belief, disbelief and ignorance indicators. The accumulated belief, disbelief and ignorance indicators are the results of previous measurements and belief / disbelief / ignorance determinations for the grid cell. An allocator indicates the status of the grid cell and whether a spectrum is available. If a spectrum is available, then the grid cell is added to other available cells within the area to generate the spectrum hole.

The present invention is a hybrid RF-digital signal processor-based filter for multiband radio architectures systems capable of spectrum re-farming and software defined radios. It performs low-loss frequency agile multiple notch filtering at RF where a large dynamic range exists at a filter input between signals in a stopband and passband. It is a frequency dependent signal attenuation apparatus having two paths connected together by directional couplers. The first path comprising a component such as a delay component or duplexer. The second path comprising a bandstop filter connected to a down converter, a digital filter, and an up converter. At the output of a power amplifier, the invention can be used to attenuate spurs, or noise within bands with strict emission constraints. At the input of a low noise amplifier, the invention can be used to attenuate blockers and transmitter noise outside of the receiver passband.

An audio signal analysis method is provided for detecting the opening and closing of a medicine bottle cap in a robust manner using a micro speaker and a microphone along with associated mixed signal electronics. It is also used for robust tamper detection and for monitoring liquid medication consumption accurately. In a preferred embodiment an un-modulated OFDM signal is used that covers the entire operating audio spectrum. In another embodiment, Complimentary code based phase encoding of the subcarrier phases is used to reduce the peak to average power of the OFDM signal, thereby enabling higher transmit power of the audio signal to mitigate against interference. A suitable wireless device can be co-located with the mixed signal electronics for sending the bottle usage, medication reminder alarm, and tamper status to the medication compliance monitoring system or to the user's cell phone. In some embodiments of the patent, electrical capacitance sensing is used to determine if the bottle is opened or closed.

Disclosed is a method of setting reverse link traffic and pilot transmit powers in a wireless communications system based on traffic channel activity in order to lower average total transmit power on the reverse link and optimize reverse link capacity. As traffic channel activity decreases, the traffic transmit power relative to the pilot transmit power, i.e., traffic-to-pilot ratio (TPR), should increase. Increasing TPR will produce lower pilot transmit powers and higher traffic transmit powers. Although higher traffic transmit powers are undesirable, the effect on average total transmit power is lessen because the traffic channel is not active all the time. By contrast, the pilot channel is always active and, thus, it is desirable to sacrifice some performance of channel estimation in order to lower average total transmit power.

A radio communication method is provided for reducing the overhead of radio resources (transmission power, transmission time, frequency band) caused by the transmission of a control signal to a mobile station in a poor propagation environment and thus enabling an improvement of throughput of the entire system. A base station (101) and mobile stations (111 and 112) are connected to allow communication by way of radio links in which a control channel and data channel can be set on each of downlinks and uplinks. The base station (101) uses the control channel to transmit a control signal to the mobile stations (111 and 112).

The base station (101) alters the amount of information of the control signal in accordance with communication conditions of the propagation paths of the radio links formed with the mobile stations (111 and 112).
