Outer-loop power control methods and apparatus are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a short-term block error rate is measured for a received signal, and a coarse adjustment to a target signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) is calculated as a function of the short-term block error rate, a target block error rate, and a first loop tuning parameter. In some embodiments, a fine adjustment to the target SIR is also calculated, as a function of a smoothed block error rate, the target block error rate, and a second loop tuning parameter. The coarse adjustment provides quick responsiveness to received block errors, while the fine adjustment moderates the coarse adjustments by accounting for a longer-term view of the received block error rate. The target SIR adjustments disclosed herein may be computed in each of several iterations of an outer-loop power control loop.

A display controller including a pixel processor which processes working pixel data for each pixel of a frame, and which includes an overlap detector, a collision detector, and a construction processor. The overlap detector detects an overlap when any new pixel value of a new update region is within a region of a current update of the frame. The collision detector issues a correction request when at least one pixel within the overlap region has a begin pixel value prior to the current update that is different from an end pixel value provided by the current update, and when a new pixel value provided by the new update for the pixel is different from the end pixel value. The construction processor updates the working pixel data before the current update is completed using a new pixel value for each non-overlapping pixel.

Described is incorporating white space networking components into a network stack. A user mode spectrum access control component determines which white space channels are currently allowed for use based upon policy, current operating status and availability information obtained from one or more sources. A white space service (e.g., in the WLAN service) receives the availability information. The white space service includes a discovery module that discovers other nodes, and a channel migration module that changes from the current channel to another channel if the current channel is no longer allowed for use. A kernel mode (NDIS layer) white space driver through a miniport driver controls the channel in use as the current channel. An automatic configuration module is provided that switches to Wi-Fi network communication when a Wi-Fi network is present, and switches back when a Wi-Fi network is not present.

Multipath components of transmitted data symbols are received with individual delays and processed by a RAKE unit having a number of fingers. A delay profile is calculated, and delay values for peaks detected therein are determined. A number of peak delay values representing the largest peaks for the profile are pre-selected, and for each of them a signal-to-interference ratio for delay values in an interval around the pre-selected peak delay value is calculated. In each interval the delay value having the highest signal-to-interference ratio is selected and provided to the RAKE unit with each selected delay being assigned to a RAKE finger. Hereby the ability to select correct and accurate path delays can be improved also in time critical processes, where filtering of the delay profiles over several frames is not possible, because quite accurate delay values can be provided shortly after wake-up of the receiver.

In third generation mobile communications networks, e.g. CDMA systems, a mobile station intending to access a base station transmits a request for access to a base station and waits for a response in the form of an indicator signal. Both detecting a signal as an acknowledgement message without one being sent from the base station and failing to detect such an acknowledgement message can give rise to noise and interference in the whole cell. The invention provides a method and a user equipment for determining the received signal strength in an access slot in a downlink channel and for asserting whether detection of an indicator signal from the base station in the access slot in the downlink channel is reliable. Hereby, a more secure reception of indicator signals can be obtained, which leads to reduced interference and noise in the whole cell.

A method of enhancing a digital image obtains the digital image, then decomposes the provided digital image according to a plurality of a number N frequency bands, including a low frequency band and more than one different higher frequency bands. Modified image data is formed by applying a gain function to image data for one or more of the N frequency bands according to a setting of a number M control points, wherein M is less than N. The modified image data for the N frequency bands are summed to form a reconstructed digital image.

A method for scanning and processing computed radiography x-ray images in order to maximize the usage of cassette options. The storage phosphor radiography imaging method of the invention employs a cassette comprising a storage phosphor screen adapted to be exposed to x-rays to store a latent x-ray image in the screen and read using a reader. The method includes the steps of: associating cassette information with the cassette using an identification member affixed to the cassette or storage phosphor screen, the cassette information comprising information relating to characteristics of the cassette relevant to the reading of the screen by the reader; prior to reading the exposed storage phosphor screen to generate a digital image signal, scanning the identification member to obtain the cassette information; and reading the exposed storage phosphor screen in accordance with the cassette information to generate the digital image signal.
摘要:
In a RAKE receiver delays associated with multipath signals are determined by subtracting power values associated with sidelobes of a peak value for each of the multipath signals. The determination can be performed in two stages, in the first stage the determination of the delays is made without accounting for a phase difference between adjacent multipath signals, while in the second stage the determinations are made accounting for the phase difference.
