摘要:
A communication system has a communication infrastructure and a gateway station communicating a communication signal to the communication infrastructure. An airplane having an antenna coupled to a processing circuit for establishing a plurality of multiple communication links corresponding to the communication infrastructure is used. The gateway station generates multiple datagrams from the television signal and transmits the multiple datagrams through the multiple dynamic links. The antenna receives the datagrams from the infrastructure and the processing circuit and reassembles the datagrams into the communication signal.

Circuits and a method for tuning an integrated circuit (IC) are disclosed. The IC includes multiple programmable fuses coupled to a control block. The programmable fuses used may be one-time programmable (OTP) fuses. The control block reads settings or data stored in the programmable fuses. A tuning circuit coupled to the control block receives the delay transmitted by the control block. The tuning circuit allows tuning of the IC without changes to the fabrication mask. The tuning circuit may include delay chains to provide additional delay to the IC when needed and the delay in the tuning circuit is configured based on the delay value stored in the programmable fuses and transmitted by the control block.
摘要:
A circuit and methods for placing a circuit block on an integrated circuit (IC) are disclosed. An embodiment of the disclosed method includes dividing the IC into multiple regions based on pre-determined value. This pre-determined value may be a voltage drop value measured on specific regions on the IC. The performance requirement for the circuit block is determined and placed in one of the regions on the IC. In one embodiment, the placement of the circuit block is based on the performance requirement and the measured value at specific regions on the IC. The measured value may be a voltage drop value and a circuit block with a higher performance may be placed in a region with a lower voltage drop value.

A satellite trunking system has a satellite for sending and receiving optical signals. A first ground station is positioned on a first land mass and a second ground station is positioned on a second land mass. Each ground station communicates to the other ground stations through the satellite using optical signals.

A communication system has a plurality of high altitude devices that are coupled to user terminals through a plurality of dynamic links. The terminal monitors and changes the multiple dynamic links as the position of the user terminal relative to the high altitude devices changes. The terminal transmits to and receives from the user terminals through the high altitude devices using a plurality of datagrams.
摘要:
An inexpensive method and system for maintaining communication between fixed receivers on the earth surface having fixed antennas and inclined orbit geostationary satellites. In preferred embodiments the fixed antennas of each receiver are provided with more than one feed horn (such as three or more feed horns) each positioned to form a beam with its antenna in a slightly different direction from beams of the other feed horns in the north-south direction. An algorithm is developed based on the known daily swings of the inclined orbit geostationary satellite which determines which of the feed horns provides a beam providing the maximum signal from the satellite.
