Abstract:
In a voltage converter, a mode configuration is selected in response to a mode control signal using a switch matrix having two or more mode configurations. Each mode configuration corresponds to one of two or more output signal voltages. The output signal is compared with a reference signal to produce a direction comparison signal. The direction comparison signal is used to produce the mode control signal.
Abstract:
A voltage converter is switched among two or more modes to produce an output voltage matching a reference voltage that can be of an intermediate level between discrete levels corresponding to the modes. The output voltage is compared with the reference voltage to determine whether to adjust the mode.

Abstract:
Systems and methods which provide data communication content delivery through a hybrid network implementation are disclosed. A hybrid network configuration may utilize a broadcast communication technique to deliver large amounts of data communication content to one or more mobile communication device via uni-directional network links and a uni-cast communication technique via bi-directional network links with the one or more mobile communication device to facilitate delivery and utilization of the data communication content. Data content delivery loss recovery techniques implemented according to embodiments of the invention utilize network links of the hybrid network other than or in addition to the uni-directional network links to implement loss recovery techniques such as a hybrid repeat technique, a hybrid retransmission technique, hybrid statistical feedback technique, and/or combinations thereof.

Abstract:
This present application relates to data encryption and decryption technology, and especially relates to a data encryption and decryption method and apparatus. The described encryption method comprises: packeting plaintext data to be encrypted, randomly assigning an encryption function to each group of the plaintext data, encrypting each group of the plaintext data with the encryption function respectively, and arranging the encrypted data according to its corresponding position in the plaintext data to form a ciphertext. The encryption apparatus includes: packet module, encryption function random assignment module and encryption processing module. This application also provides a data decryption method and apparatus. This invention randomly assigns an encryption function to the plaintext to be encrypted, and uses the assigned encryption function to encrypt the plaintext data to arrange and form a ciphertext, greatly strengthening the security of data storage, and achieving the perfect secrecy of data.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for antenna switching, grouping, and channel assignments in wireless communication systems. The invention allows multiuser diversity to be exploited with simple antenna operations, therefore increasing the capacity and performance of wireless communications systems. Channel characteristics indicative of signal reception quality for downlink or bi-directional traffic for each channel/antenna resource combination are measured or estimated at a subscriber. Corresponding channel characteristic information is returned to the base station. Channel characteristics information may also be measured or estimated for uplink or bi-directional signals received at each of multiple receive antenna resources. The base station employs channel allocation logic to assign uplink, downlink and/or bi-directional channels for multiple subscribers based on channel characteristics measured and/or estimated for the uplink, downlink and/or bi-directional channels.
Abstract:
Provided are thiophene-containing organic photoelectric materials represented by structural formula (1). The materials are thiophene compounds having multiple thiophene rings and cyano groups, useful in solar cell applications. One primary compound, for example, derivative of dicyanoethenyl quinquethiophene is well suited for application as electron donor material. Preparation methods of these thiophene-containing organic photoelectric materials and solar cell devices containing the above thiophene-containing organic photoelectric materials also are provided. Due to the fact that thiophene rings and cyano groups are included, the above thiophene-containing organic photoelectric materials have broader spectra respondence, better thermal stability and environmental stability.
