Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling handoff taking place in a wireless data transfer network, where the traffic coming to the terminal is routed to the home network of the terminal. The home network knows the foreign network where the terminal belonging to the home network is at each time located. The traffic coming to the home network is directed further to the foreign network to be transmitted to the terminal. The foreign agent discovery performed in order to determine the location of the terminal as well as the registration for the foreign agent in question is performed in the method as one procedure, in which case a smaller number of message exchanges is reached compared to before. In addition, the invention relates to a system implementing the method. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Abstract: A receiver operates to AGC a multi-carrier signal through a corresponding number of inner loops and an outer loop AGC processes. A first number of bits for representing the multi-carrier signal with a limited amount of interference is determined through a calibration mode process. The first number of bits provides for quantization of the multi-carrier signal at an outer loop AGC to a maximum quantization level. After the received signal power estimate is reached a predetermined “ON” threshold, the outer loop AGC is operated at a second number of bits higher than the first number of bits to allow a quantization of possible interference in accordance with a difference of the first and second number of bits. The outer loop AGC switches back to use the first number of bits when the received signal power estimate falls below a predetermined “OFF” threshold.

Abstract: A Diversity Handover, DHO, node is adapted to execute a macro diversity functionality in a mobile telecommunication system. The DHO node performs an uplink combining of Dedicated Channel, DCH, frames. The DHO node estimates the size of an adaptive receive window for receiving the DCH frames. The adaptive receive window includes a starting point, denoted ref, and an end point for receiving a next DCH frame or a next set of DCH frames to be combined having a Connection Frame Number n, CFNn, based on the Time of Arrival, ToA, of a previous frame or a previous set of frames having a CFNn−1. The adaptive receive window is adjusted by changing its end point for a new frame or a new set of frames in accordance with the estimated size.

Un signal d'interface détecté par une partie de détection (10) du type de signaux vidéo est converti en un signal progressif par une partie de conversion de signaux I/P (11) et envoyé dans une partie de conversion de mise en évidence (14a). Dans cette partie, le degré de conversion de mise en évidence pour les données d'images soumises au traitement de conversion I/P est réglé à un niveau inférieur à celui du degré de conversion de mise en évidence pour les données d'images introduites sous forme de signal progressif. Par conséquent, il est possible de supprimer la mise en évidence du bruit de papillonnement (faux signaux) et des lignes obliques (gradation clair-obscur), qui sont générés lorsque le signal entrelacé est soumis à un traitement de conversion I/P.  Le dispositif d'affichage à cristaux liquides peut être appliqué à un ordinateur personnel et à un poste de télévision ainsi qu'à un dispositif de mesure, un dispositif médical  et des dispositifs industriels en général.
