Title: Procede et appareil pour determiner le rapport signal sur parasite avec un ecart reduit
Inventor: SHIN SUNG-HYUK
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2003-11-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour effectuer une estimation du rapport signal sur parasite dans des communications sans fil, au moyen d'une sortie de démodulateur, telle qu'une sortie Rake ou une sortie de récepteur de détection multi-utilisateurs (MUD). La sortie de démodulateur est introduite dans un estimateur SIR destiné à effectuer l'estimation SIR, sur la base d'une puissance de signal moyenne estimée et d'une puissance de parasites efficaces moyenne estimée. La puissance de signal moyenne estimée est fondée sur la fonction de la valeur minimum utilisée pour déterminer une valeur minimum entre une valeur de puissance moyenne sur une base médiane et une valeur de puissance moyenne sur une base principale. L'estimateur SIR réduit les écarts de l'estimation SIR, et il peut être appliqué à des schémas de modulation BPSK ET QPSK, ainsi que des schémas de modulation de poids fort tels que 8-PSK et 16-QAM. Un terme correctif est utilisé en fonction des valeurs principales ou médianes, de façon à atténuer l'écart.

IPC: H02M3/156
Filed: 2002-03-06
Abstract: A switching signal generator for a switching power supply employing a DC-DC
modulator has an adder, an integrator and a quantizer. A gate driver circuit is provided
upstream of a power switch element and receives a quantizer output. By feeding back a
gate driver circuit output to the adder of the ΔΣ-modulator, a large phase margin is
obtained at a high-frequency switching. The switching signal generator for the ΔΣ
- modulation type switching power supply has an improved direct-current transmission
linearity characteristic relative to direct-current input, and that is stably controllable and
of high efficiency. Furthermore, a DC-DC converter has an adder, an integrator and a
quantizer, the integrator having a mechanism for adjusting its gain. The gain-adjusting
mechanism receives a signal from a current flowing internally of the DC-DC converter, a
voltage internally of the converter, or a converter output voltage to control gain of the
integrator so that the amplitude of output voltage of the integrator is not saturated and a
comparator is capable of high-speed operation, a Δ Σ-modulation type DC-DC
converter is provided that is unlikely to undergo oscillation especially at a high sampling
frequency, and that produces a stable output voltage.

Abstract: In a continual process to produce sweets, an aqueous solution with the ingredients is boiled and water evaporated. The residue is placed in a chamber from which the atmosphere is evaporated and the residue cooled. After boiling and prior to evaporation the aqueous solution is passed through a pressure barrier causing separation into a non-boiled fraction and a boiled fraction. The solution is boiled either under pressure or at slightly enhanced pressure. After passing through the pressure barrier the boiled solution discharges steam for a ten or more seconds at reduced pressure. The boiled solution releases steam in a two-stage process. In the first stage the pressure is less than 0.6 bar absolute. In the second stage the pressure is less than 0.15 bar. Also claimed is a commensurate assembly.

Abstract: A parameterized model of a sub-component of an essentially digital system is
described, this sub-component being used in components of the system, e.g.
interconnect at the different levels (up to the packaging level) and including all
relevant parameters with their physical constraints. For the parameters that have a
large impact, the subranges of their trade-off curves that are appropriate for a given
target domain are selected to match design cost, process cost and reliability issues. 
     Further, a parameterized model of a component of the essentially digital
system is described which includes the model of the sub-component, e.g. a memory
model that incorporates the interconnect model. 
     Finally, system design exploration and tools are described that incorporate the
above models and explore trade-offs between the different costs (energy, size, quality-cost)
within the constraints (usually timing related). Efficient mapping tools are
preferably embedded in order to make the conclusions valid for realistic design
contexts.
