Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A high-speed wireless transmission system is employable in a macro-cellular environment. In the system multiple transmit antennas are employed. Multiple carrier tones are used to transmit the data. The carrier tones can be assigned to the respective transmit antennas in such a manner as to provide each antenna with a subset of carrier tones with each subset being spread over the transmission spectrum. In addition, operation is enhanced by providing Reed-Solomon coding of the data across consecutive time intervals.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 9, 1997 and granted October 30, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 9, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 9, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
