Abstract: An object monitoring apparatus includes a movable lens. An
image represented by light passing through the lens is converted
into a video signal by a photoelectric conversion device. Detection
is made as to a moving object in an image represented by the video
signal. When a moving object is detected, the lens is moved to
change an in-focus position, on which a combination of the lens and
the photoelectric conversion device is focused, among
predetermined positions different from each other. Detection is
made as to degrees of focus of images represented by video signals
which are generated when the in-focus position coincides with the
predetermined positions respectively. A greatest of the detected
focus degrees is decided. The video signal representing the image
having the greatest focus degree is indicated.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus maps input symbols to be communicated onto a
predetermined number of carrier signals of an Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexed (OFDM) symbol. The data processor includes an interleaver memory
which reads-in the predetermined number of data symbols for mapping onto the
OFDM carrier signals. The interleaver memory reads-out the data symbols on to the
OFDM carriers to effect the mapping, the read-out being in a different order than the
read-in, the order being determined from a set of addresses, with the effect that the
data symbols are interleaved on to the carrier signals. The set of addresses are
generated from an address generator which comprises a linear feedback shift register
and a permutation circuit. In order to provide a 4k mode for an OFDM modulated
system such as a Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) standard such as DVB-Terrestrial
(DVB-T) or DVB-Handheld (DVB-H) standards, a generator polynomial for the linear
feedback shift register of  R '   i   [10]= R '   i     -1 [0]⊕ R '   i     -1 [2] is provided with a permutation order
which has been established by simulation analysis to optimise communication
performance via typical radio channels.
