Abstract: In order to test whether a given signal of a complex circuit has the correct behavior, the method makes it possible to obtain in a computer memory a profile of states of other signals for which a state of the given signal is expected in a physical sample of the circuit. In order to minimize the processing time and the memory space required to obtain this profile, the method uses binary decision diagrams. Since the given signal can have more than two states (B, H, Z), the method generates at least two binary decision diagrams, a first binary decision diagram wherein the value at 1 indicates that the signal is in the first or in the second state, and a second binary decision diagram wherein the value at 1 indicates that the signal is in the second or in the third state.

Abstract: A communication system such as an OFDM or DMT system has nodes which are allowed to transmit continuously on one or just a few of the system's frequency sub-channels, while the other nodes avoid putting any signal into those sub-channels. Simple low data rate nodes are allowed to use a small number of sub-channels while more complicated nodes use the remainder. A control protocol allows the sharing in time of communications using overlaid and non-overlaid multi-carrier communication techniques. The sharing in time can be done using TDMA, CSMA or polling techniques. In each case, mechanisms are provided for bringing new nodes into the network and for insuring the time alignment of overlaid transmissions. Reliable transmissions are insured through acknowledgement and retransmission facilities.

Abstract: A method and apparatus extract a signal component of a measured signal using one of two methods. If the signal component in the measured signal is a periodic signal with a certain well-defined peak-to-peak intensity value, upper and lower envelopes of the measured signal are determined and analyzed to extract said signal component of the measured signal. This signal component can further be used to calculate a desired parameter of the sample. The DC component of the signal is determined as the median value of the upper envelope, and the AC component is determined as the median value of the difference between the upper and lower envelopes. If the signal component of the measured signal is a periodic signal characterized by a specific asymmetric shape, a specific adaptive filtering is applied to the measured signal, resulting in the enhancement of the signal component relative to a noise component. This adaptive filtering is based on a derivative of the Gaussian Kernel having specific parameters matching the characteristics of the signal component.

Abstract: Logos may be present in images transmitted by television stations. These logos are often present in the corners (102, 104) of an image (100) for a long time. They do not move and may comprise saturated colors. This results in burn-in effects in emissive displays because the logos provide the same display load at the same location for a relatively long period of time. The burn-in effect can be prevented by detecting the logos in the corners (102, 104) of the image (100) and reducing their intensity to the average display load.

Abstract: A method and device for fingerprint identification implementing precise identification at a high speed by using partial images of a fingerprint obtained through relative movements of a finger to a small sized sensor are provided. For reassembling a sequence of partial images inputted from a frame input section 50 into a complete image, each of the partial images is collated with a user's fingerprint image (template image) registered in a template image storage section 52 to determine a position where the partial image matches best at an optimal position calculator 55, and then combined with a partial composite image stored in a partial composite image storage section 53 at an image combining section 60. When the complete composite image is obtained after repeating the above operations, specific features are extracted from the composite image at a reference character extracting section 62, and collated with those of the template image stored in a template reference character storage section 54. Consequently, user authentication can be performed at a high speed while ensuring stability in the collating operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of sending messages from a node to a receiving agent. In one embodiment, if a outbound message that is stored in a buffer in the node is unsuccessfully sent to the receiving agent more than a threshold number of times, outbound messages currently stored in the buffer are sent to the receiving agent. It is determined that these outbound messages have been successfully sent before any other outbound messages are sent to the receiving agent. In a further embodiment, an outbound message is successfully sent if a success confirmation message is received for the outbound message from the receiving agent. In a still further embodiment, a retry response is received from the receiving agent for an outbound message if a buffer in the receiving agent that stores incoming outbound messages does not have room for the outbound message.
