A RF receiver that comprises: (i) a complex mixer for converting a version of the RF signal to a complex baseband signal comprising an in-phase component and a quadrature component; (ii) one or more analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) connected to the complex mixer for digitizing the in-phase component and the quadrature component of the complex baseband signal; and (iii) a digital signal processor (DSP) connected the one or more ADCs. The DSP is programmed to mitigate interference in the complex baseband signal by a process that comprises the steps of: (i) performing at least one cross correlation operation involving L-length segments of the digitized in-phase and quadrature components of the complex baseband signal; and (ii) concatenating the cross-correlated L-length segments of the digitized in-phase and quadrature components of the complex baseband signal to produce digitized interference mitigated in-phase and quadrature components of the complex baseband signal.

A docking display unit for physically engaging a portable computing unit and a combination of the same. The display unit may include or exclude a central processing unit and includes a housing with a hinged first and second region. The first region includes a display screen and the second region includes a keyboard. A recessed docking port is provided in the second region and is configured to receive the portable device therein. At least one connector is provided in the docking port to operationally link a central processor in the portable device with the display screen and keyboard. A touchscreen on the portable device provides a user interface for controlling the combined display unit and portable device. The portable device preferably is a smartphone.

A computation efficient polyphase channelization system enables one of many user FDMA signals to be channelized through multiple FFT response frequency bands forming an aggregate frequency band where K-point FFT channels are greater than the decimation factor M to produce FFT overlapped responses that have a smooth aggregate response without disjointed band gaps for reduced distortion using a clockwise commutator having M channels feeding M filter blocks, each of which having β polyphase filters, and having a ring switch to provide smooth filter responses that then drive β K-point FFTs to provide a β set of K vector FFT responses that are then combined in a post processing system for producing K channelized outputs.
摘要:
A method and system for resource allocation. Specifically, in one embodiment, a method begins by receiving a request for an interactive session from a user. The request also comprises a resource requirement profile. Then, the method continues by selecting a computing resource having an affinity to the user. The computing resource is selected from a plurality of computing resources that are available to the user. The selected computing resource is implemented to support the interactive session. Thereafter, the selected computing resource is assigned to the user for use in the interactive session.

An apparatus and method are disclosed that can adapt off-the shelf PDA devices (90) to user input/output applications such as data entry applications and cellular phone applications. The resulting apparatus (10) may be sized and shaped to be durable and facilitate handheld operation when the user is mobile during use. The apparatus provides features required for portable data entry such as key entry, barcode scanning, radio frequency identification, and wireless local area network (LAN) as well as wide area network (WAN) communications. The apparatus may be operated (a) in a slave mode with inclusion of a PDA device (90) for use in certain input/output operations that are processor intensive as well as (b) in a stand-alone mode without inclusion of a PDA device (90) for use in certain other input/output operations that are not processor intensive.
摘要:
A method of operating a data processing system having a main memory divided into memory pages that are swapped into and out of main memory when the main memory becomes short. The data processing system has an operating system that sends page store commands specifying memory pages to be stored in a swap file and page retrieve commands specifying memory pages to be retrieved from the swap file and stored in the main memory. The present invention provides a swap driver that utilizes compression code for converting one of the memory pages that is to be swapped out of main memory to a compressed memory page. The data processing memory includes a compressed page region that is used to store the compressed memory pages. A page table in the compressed page region specifies the location of each compressed page and the page address corresponding to that page. The swap driver compresses at least one of the memory pages specified in one of the page store commands to provide a corresponding compressed memory page and causes that compressed memory page to be stored in the compressed page region. The swap driver also searches the page table for a page identified in one of the retrieve commands. The swap driver causes that page to be moved to a corresponding area of main memory after decompressing the page if the swap driver finds an entry in the page table indicating that the page is stored in the compressed page region.
摘要:
To support speculative execution in a processor, a speculative look aside table stores information about deferred exceptions. Labels attached to predicates in the predicate register file of the processor serve as indices to a speculative look aside table. When an exception is generated for a speculative operation, the speculative look aside table is updated. Deferred exceptions are detected and handled when the processor reads the corresponding entry in the speculative look aside table during an explicit or implicit check operation.
摘要:
A device (10) adding keyboard input to a handheld computer (12) lacking such input (such as pen computers and personal digital assistants) includes a bracket (30) having a plurality of clips (33) removably carrying the handheld computer (12), and a joint (40) secured to the keyboard (11) and the bracket (30) for positioning the keyboard (11) in a plurality of orientations relative to the handheld computer (12). These orientations include a first orientation in which the keyboard (11) is operable and at a preselected viewing angle from a display (14) that is pan of the handheld computer (12), a second orientation adjacent the display (14) in which the keyboard (11) substantially covers the display (14), and a third orientation proximate the handheld computer (12) in which the display (14) is unobstructed, thereby facilitating pen-based input through the display (14). A locking slide (51) carried in a recess (52) is selectively extended by the user to pass through a plurality of slots (53, 54 and 55) in joint (40) to secure the keyboard (11) and handheld computer (12) in the first and operational orientation.
