A method for compressing data, the data being represented by an input vector having Q features, wherein Q is an integer higher than 1, including the steps of 1) providing a vector codebook of sub-sets of indexed Q-feature reference vectors and threshold values associated with the sub-sets for a prefixed feature; 2) identifying a sub-set of reference vectors among the sub-sets by progressively comparing the value of a feature of the input vector which corresponds to the prefixed feature, with the threshold values associated with the sub-sets; and 3) identifying the reference vector which, within the sub-set identified in step 2), provides the lowest distortion with respect to the input vector.

A method of transmitting speech data to a remote device in a distributed speech recognition system, includes the steps of: dividing an input speech signal into frames; calculating, for each frame, a voice activity value representative of the presence of speech activity in the frame; grouping the frames into multiframes, each multiframe including a predetermined number of frames; calculating, for each multiframe, a voice activity marker representative of the number of frames in the multiframe representing speech activity; and selectively transmitting, on the basis of the voice activity marker associated with each multiframe, the multiframes to the remote device.

A radio resource scheduling method for scheduling radio resources used for communications in a radio communication system includes user equipment configured to communicate with transceiver stations on the radio resources. The transceiver stations are configured to exchange coordination messages concerning radio resources affected by intra-system interference. The radio resource scheduling method includes allocating to each user equipment served by a transceiver station a corresponding radio resource and a corresponding transmission power level to communicate with the serving transceiver station. Allocating is based on coordination messages exchanged by the serving transceiver station.

A system for processing an RF signal received via a plurality of antenna elements includes a connection arrangement for selecting a sub-set of a given number of RF signals received from the antenna elements as well as a processing arrangement for combining the received RF signals of the selected sub-set into a single RF signal for demodulation. The system includes an RF phasing circuit for producing selective combinations of the received RF signals by applying relative RF phase shift weights to the RF signals that are combined; each combination includes RF signals received from a number of adjacent antenna elements equal to the number of the RF signals in the sub-set to be selected. A radio performance estimator generates for each selective combination of RF signals at least one non-RF radio performance indicator representative of the quality of the RF signals in the combination. A decision block identifies the sub-set of received RF signals to be selected as a function of the one radio performance indicator generated for the selective combinations of the received RF signals.

摘要:
In a communication system, such as a Multiple Input Multiple Output system operating in a spatial multiplexing mode, for use, e.g., in a WLAN or HSPDA device, a plurality of information flows are received via a set of receive antennas by deriving from at least some, and possibly all, of the receive antennas, respective RF signals, and producing from the RF signals thus derived, a plurality of receive signals, each receive signal to be demodulated to recover one of the information flows transmitted. The receive signals are produced as combinations of the RF signals having applied thereto relative RF phase shift weights.
