Abstract: In a CDMA receiver for applying despread processing
to direct wave or delayed waves that arrive via each
path of multiple paths, applying synchronous detection
processing to the despread signals obtained, combining
the detection signals of respective paths and
discriminating the received data on the basis of the
combined signal, (1) a weighting unit provided for every
path measures power of delayed received waves that
arrive via its own path and, if the reception power is
less than a set level (breakpoint level), subjects an
output signal to weighting conforming to the reception
power; (2) a RAKE combiner combines signals output from
the weighting units of the respective paths; and (3) a
data discrimination unit discriminates receive data
based upon the output signal of the combiner.

Abstract: A two-way network interface is provided for both sending transmission messages and receiving reception messages between a pair of processors through a network. The network interface uses transmission messages to transmit both data and information representing respective amounts of unreported buffer space R for receiving data items from reception messages in a buffer storage circuit. The network interface holds up transmission until a number A of data items, that a particular one of the data processing circuits has made available for transmission in the message and for which buffer space is available across the network, exceeds a threshold. However the threshold is lowered, or the transmission message is transmitted before the threshold is exceeded in response to an increase in the amount R of unreported available buffer space in the buffer storage circuit for the particular one of the processing circuits.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for regulating the electrical length of an antenna. The method comprises: communicating transmission line signals at a predetermined frequency between a transceiver and an antenna; sensing transmission line signals; and, modifying the antenna electrical length in response to sensing the transmission line signals. Sensing transmission line signals typically means sensing transmission line signal power levels. In some aspects, the antenna impedance is modified. Alternately, it can be stated that the transmission line signal strength is optimized between the transceiver and the antenna. More specifically, communicating transmission line signals at a predetermined frequency between a transceiver and an antenna includes accepting the transmission line signal from the transceiver at an antenna port. Then, sensing transmission line signals includes measuring the transmission line signal reflected from the antenna port.
