A number (M) of first covariance estimates that can be averaged is defined in dependence of the presence of signals from possible interfering transmitters, and a second covariance estimate is determined as an average of said number of first covariance estimates. From the channel estimates and the second covariance estimate a Signal-to-Interference Ratio for each second group is estimated.

Abstract: The present invention provides an engine incorporating a rotary hub (6) having an opening defining a combustion chamber (38) and a bounce piston chamber (20a) whose volume varies between a maximum and a minimum with the rotation of the rotary hub. A bounce piston (12a) is slidably received in the opening between the combustion chamber (38) and the bounce piston chamber (20a). The bounce piston (12a) slides in the opening away from the centre of the rotary hub (6) following combustion of a fuel within the combustion chamber (38) to compress air injected into the bounce piston chamber (20a) and force rotation of the rotary hub. During a compression phase when the volume of the bounce piston chamber (20a) decreases from a maximum to a minimum, the bounce piston (12a) slides in the opening towards the centre of the rotary hub (6) to compress air within the combustion chamber (38).

Abstract: A system and method for securely restoring software program context is presented. A special purpose processor core is included in a heterogeneous processing environment where each processor can access a shared memory. The isolated special purpose processor core includes an isolated local memory. The isolated special purpose processor core receives an identifier corresponding to the secured program. The identifier is used to read an encrypted context of the secured program from the shared memory. The encrypted context is decrypted using an encryption key. The decrypted context is stored in the isolated special purpose processor core's local memory. The secured program's context integrity is verified by using a persistent security data that is retrieved from a secure location, such as a persistent storage register that can only be accessed when the special purpose processor core is running in isolation mode. If the context is verified, the secured program is executed.

Abstract: A method and access point (AP) for providing real-time service access to a user equipment in a packet data network. The AP receives an authentication information message from an authentication server. The authentication information message includes an identity of the UE involved in a real-time service with a corresponding node and information data for authenticating the UE at the AP. The AP detects that the UE enters the zone coverage of the AP and sends a puzzle from the AP to the UE. The AP further receives from the UE an answer for the puzzle and verifies the received answer for authenticating the UE at the AP. Afterwards, the UE is allowed to continue the real-time service with the corresponding node.
