A system and method are disclosed for providing single-hop communication sessions in a satellite network. A timing offset is selected based on a system timing reference, and used to establishing a common timing reference. A synchronization signal is transmitted from a gateway to a satellite based on time slots aligned with the common timing reference, and subsequently forwarded from the satellite to all terminals managed by the gateway. Communication sessions are initiated by terminals using the common timing reference, and downlink transmissions from the satellite to the terminals are aligned with the synchronization signal.

Disclosed is a method for communication, according to a TDMA protocol, between a master device and at least one slave device, during which a plurality of frames are transmitted between the master device and the slave device, each frame being partitioned into a plurality of time intervals, at least one time interval having an analogue synchronization signal having an amplitude regulation portion in the form of a sine wave having a constant amplitude over a number of predetermined pulses, and an optimized synchronization portion in the form of a triangular amplitude modulation of the sine wave so as to determine a reference time.

A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive a control message over a physical control channel in a first time slot, wherein the control message has power control bits for a plurality of UEs, wherein the plurality of UEs include the first UE. The UE is further configured to extract power control information for the first UE from the control message, and to transmit a signal over a physical control channel to a base station in a second time slot at a transmission power level based on the extracted power control information.

The present disclosure relates in a first aspect to a head-wearable hearing instrument comprising first and second portions and a radio-frequency data communication interface configured to transmit and receive data packets at transmit and receipt time slots, respectively, through a wireless communication channel. The head-wearable hearing instrument comprises a connector assembly configured to electrically and mechanically interconnect the first portion with the second portion. The second portion comprises a sensor configured to measure a physical property and generate sensor data representative of the measured physical property. The head-wearable hearing instrument further comprises a wired data communication link extending between the first and second portions through the connector assembly for transmission of sensor data during transmit time slots. Said transmit time slots of the sensor data and at least said receipt time slots of the wireless communication channel are non-overlapping in time.

A plurality of neutral host network (NHN) deployments may share a common evolved packet core (EPC). When a plurality of NHNs share a common EPC, continuity and mobility may be facilitated for a user equipment (UE) when the UE moves between NHNs (e.g., because the NHNs share a common EPC). Accordingly, a UE may perform a tracking area update (TAU) procedure when moving between NHNs that share a common EPC. However, a UE may need to discover whether two NHNs share a common EPC in order to perform a TAU procedure. If the UE discovers that, when moving between a first NHN and a second NHN, the NHNs do not sure a common EPC, the UE may perform an attach procedure.

The method includes detecting, in each of a plurality of wireless seismic sensor nodes, seismic reflection signals from a seismic energy source; recording, in each of a plurality of wireless geophones, detected seismic signals; transmitting, by the geophones, the recorded seismic signals as digital data, using a combination of Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), to a central data receiving device; changing the seismic energy source location for seismic reflection; and repeating the detecting, recording and transmitting a number of times for each change in seismic energy source.
