Patent EP-1063584-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ROG ANDREI LEONIDOVICH
IPC: G01S1/00
Filed: 1998-12-25
Abstract: The invention relates to the field of radio navigation and, particularly, to
pseudo-random (PRS) code-sequence generators to be used as reference code
generators of the digital correlation processing of signals in multichannel
receivers of pseudonoise signals of the satellite radio navigation systems
(SRNS) GPS and GLONASS. The technical task to be achieved by the claimed
invention is creation of a PRS SRNS code generator providing a possibility of
operation in two modes: in the mode of shaping the PRS code of the GPS
system and in the mode of shaping the PRS code of the GLONASS system, in
which case the common elements of the generator take part in shaping both
these codes, thus allowing one to simplify the design and to reduce the number
of elements of the used equipment. The result is achieved due to optimization of
the connection and interaction of the standard elements of the generator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for performing
floating-point operations. The apparatus of the present invention comprises a floating
point unit (50) which comprises standard multiply accumulate units (MACs) (51, 52)
which are capable of performing multiply accumulate operations on a plurality of data
type formats (15, 16). The standard MACs are configured to operate on traditional
data type formats (15) and on single instruction multiple data (SIMD) type formats
(16). Therefore, dedicated SIMD MAC units are not needed, thus allowing a
significant savings in die area to be realized. When a SIMD instruction is to be
operated on by one of the MAC units (51, 52), the data is presented to the upper and
lower MAC units (51, 52) as 64-bit words. Each MAC unit (51, 52) also receives one
or more bits which cause the MAC units (51, 52) to each select either the upper or
lower halves of the 64-bit words. Each MAC unit (51, 52) then operates on its
respective 32-bit words. The results of the operations performed by the MAC units
(51, 52) are then coalesced by the bypass blocks (54, 55) of the floating-point unit (50)
into a 64-bit word. The results are coalesced in such a manner that the results appear
identical to the results obtained in floating-point units which utilize dedicated SIMD
hardware.

Abstract: The integrated circuit comprises a set of conductor layers, (1) to (6), separated by insulator layers, which form a capacitive element (CF) mounted on a semiconductor substrate containing two wells (BN1, BN2) of n-type conductivity. The first well (BN1) is implanted in the semiconductor substrate below the set of layers forming the capacitive element CF, and is electrically connected to the ground to prevent the appearance of a parasitic capacitance between the first conductor layer and the substrate. The second well (BN2) forms a varicap diode (VCD) connected in series to the capacitive element (CF) at the connection terminal or pole TC1.  The integrated circuit comprises N conductor layers alternating with N insulator layers mounted on the semiconductor substrate (SUB) so that the i-th conductor layer, where i is 3 to N, is connected to the (i-2)th conductor layer of the first capacitive element (CF). The second capacitive element is formed between poles T1 and TC1, and the capacitance depends on the tuning voltage applied to the first terminal T12. The second capacitive element is a varicap diode (VCD) implemented by the second well (BN2) in the semiconductor substrate, with cathode and anode as the poles T1 and TC1. In the second embodiment, the integrated circuit comprises an inductor connected between the positive pole of the voltage supply and the second terminal T2, which is also the output of oscillator delivering signal of frequency dependent on the value of the tuning voltage. A claim is also included for a radio-communication receiver comprising an antenna and filter system for the reception of a signal at radio frequency (RF), a mixer delivering a signal of intermediate frequency (IF) equal to the difference between the radio frequency and the local oscillator frequency (FLO), a local oscillator in the form of the proposed integrated circuit, and a processor unit.

Abstract: The system uses acknowledgments of receipt to determine optimum routes. To distribute a message within a network (R-V,X,Y) whose architecture is variable as a function of the modifications of the arteries of this network, an initialization message is sent to a node to which a new artery has been added or one removed. The initialization messages are transmitted by the upstream and downstream nodes in conventional manner. Each downstream node transmits an acknowledgment of reception of the initialization message from the upstream node which sent the message to it. The acknowledgment differs (+,-) according to the position and timing within the network. It is then possible to send messages within the network by the fastest node, and block the transmission of messages via an alternative route which are liable to arrive second.
