Abstract: Pixels in an array of image sensor pixels contain photo-sensors. In response to illumination of a photo-sensor, an initial signal is generated. Multiple comparison signals are also generated based on the initial signal. One of the comparison signals remains internal to the pixel, and other comparison signals are transmitted to neighboring pixels.

Abstract: A data transmission apparatus for sequentially transmitting
data in units of packets each containing transmission data to the
receiving end, comprises: a reception unit for receiving the
transmission data as an input signal; a packet formation unit for
receiving the transmission data received, and forming an
uncompressed packet in which predetermined transmission data is
stored as uncompressed data, and a compressed packet in which at
least a portion of transmission data that follows the
predetermined transmission data is compressed and stored as
compressed data; a reference information management unit for
holding and managing, as reference information, information
relating to the uncompressed packet formed by the packet
formation unit; and a transmission unit for transmitting the
respective packets formed by the packet formation unit, as a
transmission signal, to the receiving end. The packet formation
unit forms compressed data to be stored in a compressed packet,
on the basis of the transmission data of the uncompressed packet
and the reference information stored in the reference information
management unit. Therefore, the number of packets to be

Abstract: A transmission power control method in a mobile
satellite communication system implementing accurate
control of transmission power of a base station by
obtaining an average received signal level at a
mobile station at high accuracy. The mobile station
measures an average received signal level Q k  in a
predetermined period (step SP2), and informs the
base station of the average received signal level Q k 
and an actual measuring time T k  (step SP3). The base
station calculates a total measuring time t k  which is
the sum total of the actual measuring time T k  (step
SP16), a corrected average received signal level R k 
associated with the average received signal level
during the total measuring time t k  (step SP18), and a
measuring error ΔD k  (step SP17), and controls the
transmission power on the basis of these values
(step SP21). Estimating the measuring error ΔD k  in
the total measuring time t k  longer than the
individual actual measuring time T k  makes it possible
to reduce the measuring error, thereby implementing
highly accurate transmission power control.

Abstract: A paging indicator deciding method of a mobile communication terminal in which a threshold value for deciding a paging indicator is variably set according to an SNR of a pilot channel. If the checked SNR of the pilot channel is in a range that a false alarm rate (FAR) has a large value, the mobile communication terminal determines a threshold value so that it can have the greatest value in a range that a miss probability (MP) does not exceed the standard value. If the SNR of the pilot channel checked is not in the range that the SNR has the large value, the mobile communication terminal determines a threshold value to obtain the smallest MP in a rage that the FAR is not increased any more. Since the paging indicator can be accurately decided by lowering the MP and the FAR, standby time and incoming probability of the mobile communication can be optimized.
