Patent EP-1364335-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CIROT ERIC YVES SERGE
IPC: G06G7/28
Filed: 2001-02-20
Abstract: Cette invention concerne un circuit, un procédé et un système permettant d'engendrer une caractéristique de transfert non linéaire. Ledit système comprend une pluralité de circuits de miroir de courant en parallèle, chaque circuit présentant un courant de décalage appliqué au niveau d'un terminal de sortie d'un transistor côté sortie du circuit de miroir de courant, de manière à réguler un courant de sortie correspondant. Le courant de décalage de chaque circuit de miroir de courant est établi à un niveau prédéterminé respectif. La caractéristique de transfert est donc engendrée par la somme des courants de sortie respectifs des circuits de miroir de courant d'une manière progressive.

Abstract: A Viterbi decoding system interprets bits in received QAM constellations as many-valued parameters rather than binary valued parameters. It performs the Viterbi algorithm using these many-valued parameters to provide results superior to hard decision decoding. Rather than applying a hard 0-1 function to the QAM data, the system uses a non-stepped linear or curved transfer function to assign values to the bits. In another aspect, a system differentiates between data bits based on their estimated reliability, giving more emphasis to decoding reliable bits than unreliable bits using any of a variety of techniques. By differentiating between good and bad bits and de-emphasizing or ignoring unreliable bits, the system can provide a significant reduction in uncorrectable errors and packet loss.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système multi-diffusion de communication de données radio comprenant une station principale et plusieurs stations asservies utilisant un protocole de retransmission. Des données (13) sont transmises par la station principale et reçues par les stations asservies. Ces stations asservies possédant la liaison radio la plus faible sont dénommées stations secondaires. N'importe quelle station asservie peut transmettre un accusé de réception négatif, mais seule les stations primaires peuvent transmettre un accusé de réception positif. Les accusés de réception positifs sont transmis dans des intervalles de temps séparés (1, 2, 3, 4), mais les accusés de réception négatifs (9, 10) transmis par les stations secondaires recouvrent les accusés de réception positifs transmis par les stations primaires. Ces accusés de réception négatifs altèrent la réception d'un accusé de réception positif par la station principale, assurant ainsi la retransmission des données.
