Abstract: A data processing apparatus is arranged to map input data symbols to be communicated onto a predetermined number of sub-carrier signals of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed OFDM symbols. The predetermined number of sub-carrier signals is determined in accordance with one of a plurality of operating modes and the input data symbols are divided into first sets of input data symbols and second sets of input data symbols. The data processing apparatus comprises an interleaver operable to perform an odd interleaving process which interleaves the first sets of input data symbols on to the sub-carrier signals of first OFDM symbols and an even interleaving process which interleaves the second sets of input data symbols on to the sub-carrier signals of second OFDM symbols, such that while the input data symbols from the first set are being read from locations in the interleaver memory, input data symbols from the second set can be written to the locations just read from and when input data symbols from the second set are being read from the locations in the interleaver memory, the input data symbols from a following first set can be written to the locations just read from. Furthermore, when the number data symbols which can be carried by the sub-carriers of an OFDM symbol in one of the plurality of operating modes is half or less than half of the number of data symbols, which can be carried in an operating mode which provides the most number of data bearing sub-carrier signals per OFDM symbol, the data processing apparatus is operable to interleave the input data symbols from both first and second sets in accordance with the odd interleaving process on to the first and second OFDM symbols, and to change the permutation code which is used to form the addresses from one OFDM symbol to another.

Abstract: A method is provided for operating a power station (10) with turbine shafting (11) including a gas turbine (12) and a generator (18) that is driven directly by the gas turbine (12) and that generates alternating current with an operating frequency. The output of the generator is connected to an electrical grid (21) with a given grid frequency. An electronic decoupling apparatus or variable electronic gearbox (27) is arranged between the generator (18) and the grid (21). The decoupling apparatus decouples the operating frequency from the grid frequency. In the event of a temporary over-frequency or under-frequency event in the electrical grid (21), the mechanical rotational speed of the gas turbine (12) is decreased more than the grid frequency during an under-frequency event of the electrical grid (21) and is increased more than the grid frequency during an over-frequency event of the electrical grid (21).

Abstract: A pixel block is compressed by providing a respective color component prediction for each pixel in the block. A difference between color components of two neighboring pixels is calculated and compared to a threshold. If the difference is smaller than the threshold, the prediction is calculated based on a first linear combination of the color components of these two neighboring pixels. However, if the difference exceeds the threshold, a second or third linear combination of the color components of the neighboring pixels is employed in the prediction. A guiding bit associated with the selected linear combination may be used. A prediction error is calculated based on the color component of the pixel and the provided prediction. The compressed block comprises an encoded representation of the prediction error and any guiding bit.

Abstract: A wireless communication system receiver compensates a received signal containing an IQ gain imbalance prior to performing frequency correction. The IQ gain imbalance in the signal is estimated after frequency correction, providing an IQ gain imbalance estimate for subsequent IQ gain imbalance compensation. The IQ gain imbalance estimation includes formulating a plurality of hypotheses of phase error between I and Q signal components, and taking as the actual phase error the hypothesis that yields the maximum power ratio between I and Q signal components. The maximum power ratio is differentiated with respect to the IQ imbalance estimate. The IQ gain imbalance estimate is updated as a function of its prior value(s), the maximum power ratio, and the derivative of the maximum power ratio.
