SIGNAL TRANSMISSION METHOD, INFORMATION INDICATION METHOD, AND COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE
A signal transmission method, an information indication method, and a related device are provided. The signal transmission method includes: obtaining operating parameter indication information of a second device; and transmitting/receiving a first signal to/from a third device based on the operating parameter indication information, where the transmitting/receiving a first signal to/from a third device includes transmitting/receiving the first signal to/from the third device via the second device, or the transmitting/receiving a first signal to/from a third device includes transmitting/receiving the first signal to/from the third device directly.
System information processing apparatus and information processing method
Provided is a system including: a first vehicle equipped with a land mobile station for mobile communication; and a second vehicle that transports the first vehicle and a user holding a terminal for mobile communication. The system further includes a control unit configured to acquire radio wave intensity of the mobile communication at a current location of the second vehicle, and generate, when the acquired radio wave intensity is less than a predetermined intensity, a command to unload the first vehicle from the second vehicle; and generating a command to relay the mobile communication by the land mobile station of the first vehicle.

SEMI-DISTANT TIME-SLICED ANTENNAS IN AN ASSOCIATIONLESS OVERHEAD MESH OF ACCESS POINTS
In one embodiment, a controller identifies access points forming an overhead mesh of access points in an area, each access point comprising one or more directional transmitters each configured to transmit a beam cone in a substantially downward direction towards a floor of the area. The controller assigns the access points to access point groups. The controller generates communication schedules for the access points such that each access point in an access point group is on a common channel and only one of neighboring directional transmitters of access points in that group is able to transmit at any given time. The controller sends the communication schedules to the access points forming the overhead mesh of access points in the area.

Radio access networks
Among other things, a communication system comprising at least one remote unit and controller is described. The at least one remote unit wirelessly exchanges radio frequency (RF) signals with mobile devices. Each RF signal comprises information destined for, or originating from, at least one of the mobile devices. The at least two remote units and the controller communicate baseband data corresponding to the information across an intermediate network. The at least two remote units each implement at least some physical layer processing for an air interface used to wirelessly communicate with the subscriber devices. The controller is configured to perform at least some receive signal processing using combined data resulting from combining at least some of the baseband data communicated from more than one of the at least two remote units.
