`
`PROTECTING YOUR INVENTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
`
`Since the rights granted by a U.S. patent extend only throughout the territory of the United States and have no
`effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in another country must apply for a patent
`in a specific country or in regional patent offices. Applicants may wish to consider the filing of an international
`application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). An international (PCT) application generally has the same
`effect as a regular national patent application in each PCT-member country. The PCT process simplifies the filing
`of patent applications on the same invention in member countries , but does not result in a grant of "an international
`page 1013
`
`ZTE/HTC
`Exhibit 1015-0001
`
`
`
`patent" and does not eliminate the need of applicants to file additional documents and fees in countries where patent
`protection is desired
`
`Almost every country has its own patent law , and a person desiring a patent in a particular country must make an
`application for patent in that country in accordance with its particular laws. Since the laws of many countries differ
`in various respects from the patent law of the United States, applicants are advised to seek guidance from specific
`foreign countries to ensure that patent rights are not lost prematurely.
`
`Applicants also are advised that in the case of inventions made in the United States , the Director of the USPTO must
`issue a license before applicants can apply for a patent in a foreign country. The filing of a U.S. patent application
`serves as a request for a foreign filing license. The application's filing receipt contains further information and
`guidance as to the status of applicant's license for foreign filing.
`
`Applicants may wish to consult the USPTO bookl时, "General Information Concerning Patents" (specifically, the
`section entitled "Treaties and Foreign Patents") for more information on timeframes and deadlines for filing foreign
`patent applications. The guide is available either by contacting the USPTO Contact Center at 800-786-9199 , or it
`can be viewed on the USPTO website at http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/doc/general/index.html.
`
`For information on preventing theft of your intellectual property (patents , trademarks and copyrights) , you may wish
`to consult the U.S. Government website , http://www.stopfakes.gov. Part of a Department of Commerce initiative ,
`this website includes self-help "toolkits" giving innovators guidance on how to protect intellectual property in specific
`countries such as China, Korea and Mexico. For questions regarding patent enforcement issues , applicants may
`call the U.S. Government hotline at 1-866-999-HAL T (1-866-999-4158).
`
`LlCENSE FOR FOREIGN FI Ll NG UNDER
`Title 35, United States Code, Section 184
`Title 37, Code of Federal Regulations, 5.11 & 5.15
`
`GRANTED
`
`The applicant has been granted a license under 35 U.S.C. 184, if the phrase "IF REQUIRED , FOREIGN FI Ll NG
`Ll CENSE GRANTED" followed by a date appears on this form. Such licenses are issued in all applications where
`the conditions for issuance of a license have been met, regardless of whether or not a license may be required as
`set forth in 37 CFR 5.15. The scope and limitations of this license are set forth in 37 CFR 5.15(a) unless an earlier
`license has been issued under 37 CFR 5.15(b). The license is subject to revocation upon written notification. The
`date indicated is the effective date of the license , unless an earlier license of similar scope has been granted under
`37 CFR 5.13 or 5.14.
`
`This license is to be retained by the licensee and may be used at any time on or after the effective date thereof unless
`it is revoked. This license is automatically transferred to any related applications(s) filed under 37 CFR 1.53(d). This
`license is not retroactive
`
`The grant of a license does not in any way lessen the responsibility of a licensee for the security of the subject matter
`as imposed by any Government contract or the provisions of existing laws relating to espionage and the national
`security or the export of technical data. Licensees should apprise themselves of current regulations especially with
`respect to certain countries , of other agencies , particularly the Office of Defense Trade Controls , Department of
`State (with respect to Arms , Munitions and Implements of War (22 CFR 121-128)); the Bureau of Industry and
`page 2 01 3
`
`ZTE/HTC
`Exhibit 1015-0002
`
`
`
`Security, Department of Commerce (15 CFR parts 730-774); the Office of Foreign AssetsControl , Department of
`Treasury (31 CFR Parts 500+) and the Department of Energy.
`
`NOT GRANTED
`
`No license under 35 U.S.C. 184 has been granted at this time , if the phrase "IF REQUIRED , FOREIGN FI LlNG
`Ll CENSE GRANTED" DOES NOT appear on this form. Applicant may still petition for a license under 37 CFR 5.12 ,
`if a license is desired before the expiration of 6 months from the filing date of the application. If 6 months has lapsed
`from the filing date of this application and the licensee has not received any indication of a secrecy order under 35
`U.S.C. 181 , the licensee may foreign file the application pursuant to 37 CFR 5.15(b).

`GRANT IN MESSAGE 2 FLIPS NDI
`
`[0001] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various types of
`corru:nunication content such as voice, dala, and so on. 币lese systems may be multiple(cid:173)
`access systems capable of supponing communication with multiple users by sharing 出e
`avaílable system resources (e.g., bandwidth and transmit power). Examples of such
`
`multiple-access systems include code division multiple access (CD岛1/\.) systcms, tímc
`
`division multiple access (丁DMA) systems ,台叫uency division multiple access (FDMA)
`systems, 3GPP Long Term Evolution (L TE) systems, and orthogonal frequcncy division
`multiple access (OFDMA) systems.
`
`[0002] Generally, a wireless multiple嗣access communication system can simultaneously
`
`support communication for multiple wireJess terminals. Each terminal communicates with
`
`one or more base statíons vía transmissions on the forward and reverse links. The forward
`
`link (or downlink) refers to the communication link from the base stations to the
`terminals, and the reverse link (or uplink) refers to 白白 communication link from th巳
`
`terminals to the base stations. This communication link may be established via a single(cid:173)
`
`in唰 single心ut, multiple崎 in-signaJ 心ut or a multiple-in-multipJe-out (MIMO) system.
`
`[0003] A MIMO system employs multipJe (Nr) transmit antennas and multiple (NR) receive
`antennas for data transmission. A MIMO channeJ formed by the Nr transmit and 汕
`receive antennas may be decomposed into Ns independent channels, which are also
`referred to as spatial channels, where Ns ~ min{Np λNR川}. Each 0时f the 八尺ls ind巾cp阳en叫ldc∞n
`cωO 付附tωsp仰on叫ds 1ωo a dimension. The MIMO systcm can provide improved
`
`channe咄ls
`
`performance (e.ιhigher throughput and/or greater reliabîlity) if Ihe additional
`
`dimensionalities created by the multiple transmit and receive antennas are utilized.
`
`(0004) A MIMO system supports a time division duplex (TDD) and fr叫 uency division
`dup)ex (FDD) systems. In a TDD system, the forward and reverse link transmissions are
`
`on the same 仕equency region so that the reciprocity principle alJows the estimation of the
`forward link channel 仕om the reverse link channel. This enables the access point to
`
`extract transmit beamforming gain on the forward link when multiple anlennas arc
`avai1able at 由e access point.
`
`[0005) Access poin!S can provide a random access channeJ (RACH) that allows wireless
`
`terminals 10 communicate with the access point to establish communication thercwiùl.
`
`ηle wir它less terminal can transmit a fjrst message to the access point r叫 uesting network
`access. 白le nerwork subsequent1y responds with a second message granting access to the

`
`shared data channel using hybrid automatic repeatlrequest for example.

`
`DESCRIPTION
`
`[0012] The techniques descnbed herei..ll may be used for various wircless communication
`
`networks such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) networks, Time Di飞咽 1011
`Multiple Acccss (TDMA) networks, Frequency Division Multiple Acces品 (FDMA)
`networks, Orthogonal FDMA (OFDMA) networks, Single-C衍rier FDMA (SC-FDMA)
`networks, etc. The tenns "networks" and "systems" are often used interchange现bly. 人
`
`CDMA network may implement a radio technology such as Universal Te汀estrial Radio
`Access (UTRA), cdma2000, etc. UTRA includes 认fidebal1d-CDMA (W♂ DMA) and
`c命η a2000 covers IS-2000, 15-95 and IS-856 standards. A
`
`Low Chip Rate (LCR).
`
`TDMA network may irnplement a radio technology such as Global System for Mobilc
`Communications (GSM). An OFD如1A network may implement a radio technology such
`
`as Evolved UTRA (ιUTRA) , IEEE 802. 门, IEEE 802.16, IEEE 802.20, Flash 翩。 FDM@ ,
`etc. UTRA, E-UTRA, and GSM are part of Universal Mobile 丁elecommunication
`
`System (UM丁S). Long Tenn Evolution (LTE) is an upcoming release ofUMTS that uses
`
`ZTE/HTC
`Exhibit 1015-0015
`
`
`
`Attomey Docket No.: 082352Pl
`
`E-UTRA. UTRA, E-UTRA, GSM, UMTS and L TE are described in documents from an
`organization n缸n叫 "3rd Generation Partnership Project" (3GPP). cdma2000 is described
`
`in documents 什om an organization named "3rd Generation Partnership Project 2"
`
`(3GPP2). These various radio technologies and standards are known in thc art. For
`clarity, certain aspects of the techniques are described below for L TE, and L TE
`
`termino10gy is used in much ofthe description be1ow.
`
`[0013] Sing1e carrier frequency division multiple access (SC唰FD沁1A) , which utilizes single
`
`carrier modulalion and frcquency domain 叫ualization is a technique. SιFDMA has
`
`similar performance and essentially the same overall complexity as thosc of OFDMA
`
`system. SC-FDMA signal has lower peak-to嗣average power ratio (PAPR) becausc of ils
`
`i时lerent single carrier s肌lcture. SC-FDMA has drawn greal attention, especially in the
`
`uplink cornrnunicatiol1s where lower P APR greatly benefits the mobile terminal in tenns
`of transrnit power efficiency. It is cu汀ently a working assumption for uplink multiple
`access scheme in 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE), or Evolved UTRA
`
`[0014] Referring to Fig. ), a muItiple access wireless communication system according to
`one embodiment is illustrated. An access point 100 (AP) includes multiple antenna
`groups, one including 104 and 106, another inc1uding 108 and 110, and an additional
`including 112 and 114. ln Fig. 1, only two antennas are shown for each antenna group,
`however, more or fewer antennas may be utilized for each antenna group. Access
`terminal 116 (A T) is in communication with antennω112 and 114, wh盯 antennas 11 2 .
`
`and 114 transmit infOlτnation to access terminal 116 over forward link J 20 and rcccive
`information from access terminal 116 over reverse 1in.k 118. Access termina1 122 is in
`communication with antennas 106 and 108, where antennas ) 06 and 108 transmit
`informalion to acccss terminal 122 ovcr forward link 126 and rece
