Abstract:
A method for constructing a space-time/space-frequency code, and a transmitting method and apparatus are provided, which relate to the field of wireless communication technologies. The method for constructing a space-time/space-frequency code includes: classifying at least two transmitter antennas into K groups, and classifying information symbols into K′ groups; constructing a Toeplitz matrix for information symbols in each group according to the number of transmitter antennas in a transmitter antenna group; and substituting the Toeplitz matrix for nonzero elements in an Orthogonal Space-Time Block Coding (OSTBC) matrix that is based on K and K′, and when the OSTBC matrix comprises a zero element, substituting a zero matrix with a corresponding dimension, for the zero element. The space-time code constructed with the above method has orthogonality.
Abstract:
According to some embodiments, first and second processing elements may be provided on a die, and there may be a plurality of potential communication links between the first and second processing elements. Moreover, control logic may be provided on the die to dynamically activate at least some of the potential communication links (e.g., based on a current bandwidth appropriate between the first and second processing elements).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to delivery systems to enhance the bioavailability of flavonoids to improve human health. Flavonoids of interest include but are not limited to curcumin, resveratrol, ellagic acid, naringenin, and quercetin. Flavonoids are important in part because they are known to have beneficial effects on human health, including cardioprotective, antioxidant, and anticancer effects. Utility has been limited by low bioavailability, both in the sense of requiring high doses and in that it has been difficult to carry out proper dose-response studies in the absence of methods to control the actual dose administered. In addition to pharmaceutical applications, there are potential nutraceutical uses, for example in supplements that might be sold in health food stores and pharmacies.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of generating representative motion information that can be used during processing of a video frame. In one exemplary embodiment disclosed herein, a reference frame comprising a group of blocks is processed, and motion information for the group of blocks is compressed at least by buffering representative motion-vector information and representative reference-frame index information for the group of blocks. The representative reference-frame index information comprises reference-frame index information of a representative block of the group of blocks, and the representative reference-frame index information represents reference-frame index information for the group of blocks during processing of a current frame.
Abstract:
A simple and robust CTL is used for time tracking of multipath components of a spread spectrum signal transmitted over a wireless multipath fading channel. A digital code-tracking loop includes the implementations of despreading early and late data samples by use of a pseudonoise sequence, an error signal output generated by the despreading, and adjustment for a plurality of on-time, early and late samples, a data rate of a control signal provided as a fractional proportion of a data rate of error signals.
