Abstract:
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with controlling pixels of a display are described. According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes a frame counter logic configured to maintain a global frame counter to track a number of refreshes of a display while updating pixels. The frame counter logic is also configured to determine a frame number when updating a pixel. The apparatus also includes a pixel logic configured to update the pixel.
Abstract:
A turbo encoder is provided to be capable of improving its performance in the case that the redundancy is low. A first constituent encoder (1) of an output device of the turbo encoder inputs a data coding sequence (Xk) directly and outputs a redundant data sequence (Zk). A second constituent encoder (2) inputs data coding information (X′k) mixed with the data coding sequence by an interleaver (3), and outputs a redundant data sequence (Z′k). A buffer (4) holds the data coding information (X′k) mixed with the data coding sequence by the interleaver (3). Thus, the data coding sequence (Xk), the redundant data sequences (Zk), (Z′k) and the data coding information (X′k) held by the buffer (4) are output in this order.
Abstract:
A communication apparatus includes two or more receiving units differing in characteristics. The apparatus further includes a data detecting unit detecting data to be received, in an input signal, and a selecting unit that selects one out of the two or more receiving units, depending upon detected result and characteristics of receiving units. In case data to be received is not contained in the input signal, the selecting unit selects a receiving unit whose power consumption during a period of time of not receiving the data is smaller than that of the other receiving unit(s) during a period of time of not receiving the data. In case the data to be received is contained in the input signal, the selecting unit selects a receiving unit from which a most satisfactory receiving quality is expected depending upon propagation environments of the input signal.
Abstract:
A turbo decoding method is capable of realizing high-speed and highly accurate decoding operations by improving initialization of path metric values for parallel decoding processing. Turbo encoded code data is divided into a first to an N-th sub-code blocks and parallel decoding processing on these sub-code blocks is performed. “A priori initialization processing unit” s are provided which employ a final calculated value in a preceding sub-code block as an initial value for calculation of a path metric value of each sub-code block excluding the first sub-code block in a forward direction and a final calculated value in a following sub-code block as an initial value for calculation of a path metric value of each sub-code block excluding the N-th sub-code block in a backward direction. After the a priori initialization processing of path metric values, parallel decoding processing on each sub-code block is performed.
Abstract:
A sliding window turbo decoder is provided which is capable of reducing large amounts of arithmetic calculations required for decoding and of achieving decoding processing that can reduce power consumption. An input code block is divided into a plurality of windows on which forward and backward processing is performed to realize a plurality of times of iterated decoding. At every time of iterated decoding, CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) is made by the CRC processing section and, according to the CRC processing result, a training size (length) for training processing on an initial value to be used in path metric calculations in a backward direction in a subsequent decoding is adjusted and controlled and, if the result is good, decoding is stopped. Power consumption is reduced while decoding capability is maintained.

Abstract:
Relative quantitative information about components of chemical or biological samples can be obtained from mass spectra by normalizing the spectra to yield peak intensity values that accurately reflect concentrations of the responsible species. A normalization factor is computed from peak intensities of those inherent components whose concentration remains constant across a series of samples. Relative concentrations of a component occurring in different samples can be estimated from the normalized peak intensities. Unlike conventional methods, internal standards or additional reagents are not required. The methods are particularly useful for differential phenotyping in proteomics and metabolomics research, in which molecules varying in concentration across samples are identified. These identified species may serve as biological markers for disease or response to therapy.
Abstract:
The second rate de-matching unit carries out a second rate de-matching step in parallel to each of two data defining the received data Rx for removing bits having been repeated in a second rate matching step having been carried out in a base station, or de-removing bits having been punctured in the second rate matching step having been carried out in a base station. The adders carry out a combining step in parallel in which data stored in the IR buffer is added to associated data among the two data. The first rate de-matching/turbo-decoding unit carries out a first rate de-matching step in which bits having been punctured in a first rate matching step having been carried out in a base station are repeated to data having been output from the input buffers, and simultaneously, repeatedly carries out a turbo-decoding step to the data.
