Systems, methods, apparatus, devices and computer program products enhance uplink inter-cell interference cancellation with HARQ retransmissions. The decoding of a data packet depends on whether the interfering packet was decoded. Since the interfering packet is itself transmitted using a HARQ process, the transmission by the victim UT can be accomplished to take this situation into account. The latency of the victim UT can be varied based on the need for energy efficient transmission. In accordance with one specific aspect, if the receiver can decode multiple packets simultaneously, high data rates can be achieved using packet pipelining.

A method selects source and channel codec parameters according to varying channel conditions and signal to noise ratio for a given distortion constraint. The processes of source and channel encoding and decoding with the selected parameter values and transmit power level per quality layer minimize a total energy consumption for delivery of multimedia content from a transmitting terminal to a receiving terminal. The total energy consumption is defined as the energy consumed while processing and transmitting the multimedia. Coding parameters, such as channel code rates, error resilience redundancy, unequal error protection level, and transmit power level can vary from layer to layer.

A time-of-propagation distance-determining method involves sending a probe request from a handset to an AP and receiving a return ACK. The time it takes for the probe request to propagate to the AP, the turnaround time, and the time it takes the ACK to propagate back to the handset is measured on the handset. The turnaround time is subtracted from the measured time, and the result is used to make a distance determination. In order to reduce power consumption, the “lowest overall transmit energy” setting that will give acceptable reception of a probe request sent by the handset to the AP station is determined. The lowest overall transmit energy setting involves a bit rate setting and a transmit power setting. The lowest overall transmit energy setting is used to send probe requests when probe requests are sent from the handset in carrying out a time-of-propagation distance-determining transaction.
