Abstract: Selon l'invention, les liens raccourcis sont utiles, mais difficiles à retenir pour les utilisateurs humains. Est divulgué un procédé de codage d'une chaîne de caractères, comprenant les étapes consistant à recevoir d'un utilisateur la chaîne de caractères, à stocker la chaîne de caractères dans une mémoire de données lisible par machine, à stocker une chaîne codée en combinaison avec la chaîne de caractères, la chaîne codée comprenant une séquence de caractères à partir d'un ensemble de caractères standard, chaque caractère étant présenté dans une couleur sélectionnée parmi un groupe prédéterminé de couleurs. Ceci permet de créer un code unique constitué d'une chaîne courte de caractères, chacun d'une couleur. L'ensemble de caractères plus important qui est (efficacement) créé par l'utilisation de multiples couleurs signifie que la longueur de la chaîne codée peut être réduite tout en conservant un nombre adéquat de combinaisons potentielles. Un utilisateur humain se souvient plus facilement de cette chaîne plus courte, en particulier lorsqu'elle est constituée de quatre caractères en quatre couleurs.

Title: Signal pre-compensation method and apparatus
Inventor: DMITRY SOLOVEV
IPC: H04B10/50
Filed: 2021-03-02
Abstract: A signal pre-compensation method and apparatus are provided, and are applied to an optical signal sending device. The method includes: determining at least one target frequency subband from a plurality of frequency subbands of a first optical signal; demodulating an optical signal of the at least one target frequency subband in the first optical signal based on the at least one target frequency subband, and obtaining a first electrical signal after demodulation; and updating a pre-compensation parameter based on the at least one target frequency subband, the first electrical signal, and a second electrical signal, where the pre-compensation parameter is used to perform signal pre-compensation on the second electrical signal, and the first optical signal is generated after the pre-compensation is performed on the second electrical signal. Updating of the pre-compensation parameter does not need to depend on feedback from a receiving device, thereby reducing costs generated by configuring a feedback channel, shortening a delay of updating the pre-compensation parameter, improving accuracy of pre-compensation processing, and further improving communication performance. In addition, demodulation of an optical signal of the target frequency subband lowers a requirement for a bandwidth of a demodulation device, thereby reducing costs.
