A method for performing a singular value decomposition (SVD) upon a matrix. The method includes the steps of: (a) simplifying the matrix to derive a simplified matrix; (b) performing an iterative matrix multiplication upon the simplified matrix to generate an iterated matrix; (c) extracting a vector of the iterated matrix according to an iteration number of the iterative matrix multiplication; (d) de-correlating the simplified matrix from the vector to update the simplified matrix; (e) repeating steps (b), (c), and (d) until a predetermined number of vectors have been derived; and (f) storing a first unitary matrix determined according to the predetermined number of vectors in the singular value decomposition.

A method for performing channel shortening equalization with frequency notch mitigation is provided, where the method is applied to an electronic device. The method includes: obtaining channel response information from channel estimation to determine a relaxed channel convolution matrix corresponding to the channel response information, with the relaxed channel convolution matrix being a partial matrix of a channel convolution matrix corresponding to the channel response information, wherein the relaxed channel convolution matrix is obtained from omitting a portion of matrix elements of the channel convolution matrix; and based upon the relaxed channel convolution matrix, jointly performing time domain channel shortening control and frequency domain flatness control over the TEQ to perform channel shortening equalization with frequency notch mitigation by utilizing the TEQ. In particular, the portion of matrix elements includes a plurality of rows of matrix elements within the channel convolution matrix. An associated apparatus is also provided.

A dual-frequency bistable liquid crystal display and the liquid crystal mixture thereof includes liquid crystal cell filled with a liquid crystal mixture which contains dual-frequency liquid crystal, chiral compound, and nematic liquid crystal mixture. The liquid crystal mixture has the characteristics of both the dual-frequency liquid crystal and cholesteric liquid crystal. The dual-frequency bistable liquid crystal display is driven in a frequency modulation mode and can be switched between two optical states by taking advantage of the dielectric anisotropy of the liquid crystal, which results in a short switching time and sharp contrast between two optical states. Furthermore, the maintaining of the two optical states requires no voltage, which does not require the use of a high voltage to destabilize the helical structure of the cholesteric liquid crystal, and does not have to go through a metastable stage. Hence, power consumption and switching time are reduced.
