Abstract:
In an embodiment the method includes, at a transmit side, grouping carriers into carrier groups, and selecting a group constellation diagram for modulation of the carriers of a given carrier group. The selected group constellation diagram is built as a hierarchical sum of I super-imposed constellations vectors having predefined decreasing powers with the P strongest and the Q weakest constellation vectors being omitted. The carriers of the carrier group are modulated by means of the selected group constellation diagram, and P and/or Q parameters per carrier group and per multi-carrier data symbol are adjusted.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for supporting data-communication between a first communications module and a second communications module over a communications link between the first communications module and the second communications module where this method comprises the steps of at a first communications module setting up a temporary network applying at least one network connection parameter in the setting up of the temporary network and presenting data-communication supporting information, where the data-communication supporting information comprises at least one network connection parameter and data-communication specific data. Subsequently, the second communications module retrieves the data-communication supporting information presented and the second communications module connects to the temporary network of the access point of the first communications module applying the at least one network connection parameter retrieved from the data-communication supporting information. The method also includes the step of starting a first application at the first communications module and a second application at the second communications module where the first and second application require a data-communication over the temporary network between the access point of the first communications module and the second communications module. The first and said second application being uniquely identified by the data-communication specific data.
Abstract:
In adaptive streaming, video segments are available in one or more quality levels, and each video segment is delivered to the client (103) in a quality level specified in a request received from that client (103). In order to reduce the risk for buffer underrun, an adaptive streaming aware network node (101) comprises: —session monitoring means (111) for collecting buffer fill information indicative for a buffer volume at the client (101) occupied by a video session; —priority calculation means (112) for determining a priority level for video segments of the session in function of the buffer fill information; and —video segment marking means (113) for marking video segments of the session with the priority level.
Abstract:
A method for queue management in a packet-switched network including at an intermediate node receiving first packets belonging to a first class associated with a first queue management mechanism and second packets belonging to a second class associated with a second queue management mechanism; marking or dropping of the first packets in accordance with the first queue management mechanism and marking or dropping of the second packets in accordance with the second queue management mechanism; and coupling the marking or dropping of the second packets to the marking or dropping of the first packets.

In adaptive streaming, video segments are available in one or more quality levels, and each video segment is de livered to the client (103) in a quality level specified in a request received from that client (103). In order to reduce the risk for buffer underrun, an adaptive streaming aware network node (101) comprises: —session monitoring means (111) for collecting buffer fill information indicative for a buffer volume at the client (101) occupied by a video session; —priority calculation means (112) for determining a priority level for video segments of the session in function of the buffer fill information; and—video segment marking means (113) for marking video segments of the session with the priority level.
Abstract:
Exemplary methods and apparatuses are provided for gesture control of at least one remotely controllable device that includes receiving information from at least one sensor input device at a gesture server device, detecting a gesture within the received information from the at least one sensor input device by the gesture server device, and remotely controlling the at least one remotely controllable device according to the detected gesture by the gesture server device. An exemplary apparatus includes a gesture server device adapted to perform the method of the invention. Another exemplary apparatus includes a sensor input device adapted to provide a detection of an object and/or a movement of the object as information.
