Patent EP-1235461-A3 (EP)
Inventor: GAWLICK RAINER
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1996-11-19
Abstract: A method of admitting and routing switched virtual circuit requests
(210) in a network first finds a set of routing paths on which a requested VC may be
routed by using a two step process (220). The method uses a cost function based on
a parameter related to the number of hops in a subset of VC connections previously
made in the network to determine potential routing paths on which the VC can be
routed at a cost below a specified threshold. The method next checks to determine
which potential routing paths comprise links and nodes with sufficient resources to
accommodate the request. Paths satisfying both steps are output as a set of routing
paths and then a second criterion is used to select (240) a path from the set on which
to route the request (250). In a distributed routing system, the inventive method uses
a local network state to determine the cost function and the set of routing paths. The
method further updates (260) local state information at nodes along a path selected
from the set and permits other paths from the set to be selected for routing a
requested VC if the previously selected path has insufficient resources to
accommodate the request.

Abstract: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Verfahren zum Betreiben eines elektronischen
Navigationssystems auf einem Bildschirm, zur grafischen Präsentation von
Informationsinhalten, insbesondere sogenannte elektronische
Programmzeitschriften. Dabei werden Informationsinhalte vorab hinsichtlich
bestimmter inhaltlicher Kategorien (z.B. "Information", "Action", "Humor") mit
Kennziffervektoren (z.B. (10, 5, 7)) belegt. Je höher die einer bestimmten
Kategorie entsprechende Kennzahl in einem Kennziffervektor ist, desto mehr
entspricht der jeweilige Inhalt einem mit einer Höchstwertung (z.B. "10")
belegten Idealwert. Sodann wird ein mathematisches Abstandsmaß zwischen
den Kennziffervektoren unterschiedlicher Dateninhalte sowie gegebenenfalls
der Abstand von einem vorgegebenen Ursprungsvektor berechnet. Bei der
grafischen Präsentation der Dateninhalte auf einem Bildschirm spiegelt die
relative Positionierung der einzelnen Dateninhalte in entsprechenden

Abstract: The invention relates to optical fibre devices and methods of tuning
the birefringence of waveguides, especially to all-fibre optical devices
which have undergone microstructuring.
Embodiments of the invention include an optical fibre device (10) such as a
tunable birefringent optical fibre having a core region (12), a cladding layer (14)
therearound, and a controllable active material (18) selectively disposed in, for example,
capillaries or pockets (16) formed in the cladding layer. The active materials include, for
example, electro-optic material, magneto-optic material, photorefractive material, thermo-optic
material and/or materials such as laser dyes that provide tunable gain or loss. The
application of, for example, temperature, light or an electric or magnetic field modifies
the optical properties of the active material, which, in turn, modifies the propagation
properties of optical signals in the device. The optical device can include a tapered region
or long period grating that causes the core mode to spread or couple into the cladding
region and, simultaneously, allows the active material to be relatively close to the
propagated modes, thus allowing interaction between the active material and the
propagating modes.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-phase sampling system (3, 10) in
which each sampler (4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13) samples a transition and data of an incoming
data signal (2, 14). By enabling each sampler to sample a transition in addition to

can be determined (30). The phase error determinations (24, 25, 26) provide valuable
information that can be used 1) to correct the phase errors of the system sampling the
incoming data signal, 2) to correct the phase errors of a multi-phase system that is
transmitting the incoming data signal, and/or 3) to correct the phase errors of both a
multi-phase system that is sampling an incoming data signal and of a multi-phase

Abstract: The present invention describes a method and apparatus for
implementing a mobile receiver (10) that combats multiple access
interference (MAI) in a code division multiple access (CDMA) spread
spectrum system. Such capability is required by mobile receivers
to support high data rate applications such as the ones provided by
HSDPA and 1xTREME. A receiver (10) combining equalization and
interference cancellation (IC), according to the invention, avoids
the shortcomings of either equalization or IC and provides superior
performance relative to prior art methodologies. The approach
proposed by this invention for the operation of the mobile receiver
is to first perform equalization (12) of the received signal (r)
and then use the resulting decisions to perform IC. Combining
equalization and IC yields a complexity that is smaller to that
obtained by implementing conventional IC with a Rake receiver for
the same performance.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus is operable to combine template signals into first and second frequency bands of a data signal. By detecting an amount of relative frequency change of the template signals recovered from each of the frequency bands, an indication of an amount of distortion applied to the data signal can be determined. Accordingly, there is disclosed a data processing apparatus for detecting distortion of a data signal to which a template signal has been introduced into different frequency bands of the signal. The apparatus comprises a frequency component processor operable to generate data representative of the frequency components of the first and the second frequency bands of the data signal, and a detection processor operable to identify the distortion of the data signal in accordance with a relative frequency change between the versions of the recovered template signal. 
     If the data signal is an image, the Wavelet transform can be used to transform the image into the Wavelet domain. In the Wavelet domain, the template signal can be introduced into the Wavelet bands. Correspondingly, the distortion to an image can be identified from a relative change in frequency of the template signal between the bands. The distortion can be interpreted as a transform applied to the image, such as an Affine transform. By evaluating the transform parameters the distortion to the image can be removed by applying an inverse transform according to the determined transform.
