<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve the inter-node fairness of wireless communication using resource utilization messages (RUMs), in accordance with various aspects. <P>SOLUTION: A RUM may be generated for a first node, such as an access point or an access terminal, to indicate that a first predetermined threshold has been met or exceeded. The RUM may be weighted to indicate a degree to which a second predetermined threshold has been exceeded. The first and/or second predetermined thresholds may be associated with various parameters associated with the node, such as latency, throughput, data rate, spectral efficiency, carrier-to-interference ratio, interference-over-thermal level, etc. The RUM may then be transmitted to one or more other nodes to indicate a level of disadvantage experienced by the first node. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
