Abstract: A portable electronic apparatus (300) has first and second display areas (321, 322). The apparatus has an orientation sensor (310) that provides an orientation sensor output signal (312) indicative of a spatial orientation of the apparatus. The apparatus also has a display controller (301) coupled to the first and second display areas (321, 322) and to the orientation sensor. The display controller controls the first display area and the second display area in either a first display state or a second display state, with less display activity than the first display state. When a movement of the portable electronic apparatus has been determined from the orientation sensor output signal, one of the first and second display areas is switched from the first display state to the second display state, whereas the other display area is switched from the second display state to the first display state. Specifically, the other display area is first switched from the second display state to the first display state, and then, during a transition time period, both display areas are maintained in the first display state. The transition time period is a function of a speed of the determined movement of the portable electronic apparatus. Finally, after the transition time period has lapsed, the one display area is switched from the first display state to the second display state.

Abstract: A process and circuit for blending a foreground image (B) with a background image (A) , said foreground and background images being arranged in pixels and having color representations (R, G, B) . The foreground foreground image (A) has a transparency parameter (T(x,y)) in accordance with a so-called alpha plane representative of the transparency profile to apply to the foreground image.  The process involves the steps of: 
- applying a dithering method on said alpha plane in order to convert said transparency parameter (T) into a one-bit transparency parameter (T'); 
- use said one-bit transparency parameter (T') for controlling a multiplexing unit having two inputs respectively receiving the foreground image (A) and the background image (B).  In one embodiment, the one-bit transparency parameter T' into the two extreme values of a range of continuous values, for instance coded on 8 bits.  The process then applies a four-pixel interpolation method to the foreground image (A) for the purpose of creating a five level transparency parameter in the blending process, and then uses the five level transparency parameter for controlling a multiplexing circuit for the purpose of achieving blending of the foreground image with the background image.

Abstract: A HARQ processing method is disclosed, by which a measurement gap is considered. In particular, as a terminal performs an inter-measurement operation, if HARQ feedback information reception is impossible, the terminal determines HARQ feedback information, which is not received for a next HARQ operation, as ACK or NACK by itself and is then able to perform the next HARQ operation. Specifically, in case that the terminal operates by determining the non-received HARQ feedback information as ACK, a corresponding uplink signal keeps being stored in an HARQ buffer and can be retransmitted according to a new UL grant reception from a base station.

Abstract: Systems and methods to detect a failure of a subset of component power packs within a multiple component rechargeable power pack. At least one parameter of a charging current that is provided for a time duration to a rechargeable power pack is determined (302). A measured capacity change quantity for the rechargeable power pack during the time duration is estimated (304). The measured capacity change quantity is compared, after the time duration, to an expected capacity change quantity that is based upon the at least one parameter (306). A determination is made that at least one component power pack within the rechargeable power pack has failed based on a difference between the measured capacity change quantity and the expected capacity change quantity (308). A charging current parameter is modified in response to the determining that the at least one component power pack has failed (312).

Abstract: A communication circuit arrangement for receiving digital intelligence signals as, for example, in a digital switching center of a PCM-time-division multiplex communication network wherein signals are transmitted on circuits connected to digital subscriber stations and the signals are in the form of intelligence signal blocks having at least one intelligence signal word and including a synchronizing word ahead of the intelligence signal word. So as to compensate for the fluctuating phase relationship occurring in the received signals, the first bit of the intelligent block is determined using a signal evaluation device and a clock pulse signal having a phase which is selected using a clock pulse selection circuit and wherein a synchronous counter is set to zero. The counter generates release signals for a plurality of registers for the individual portions of the intelligence block and a comparator test for the presence of a proper synchronizing word. Depending on the results of this comparison, the adjusting procedures are repeated upon the occurrence of the next block or alternatively the system continues to function with the incoming data. The determination of the first bit of an intelligence signal block allows the selection of a bit clock pulse sequence in proper phase and allows the setting of the synchronous counter which controls the acceptance of intelligence into the various registers.
