Abstract: A system and method for minimizing interference for mobile devices in a communication network that includes a macrocell base station and a femtocell having a base station. The method receives initialization data on a backhaul connection between the femtocell base station and the macrocell base station, and uses that data to configure the femtocell base station transmitting power. The method receives a user equipment identifier from a macrocell user equipment in the communication network, and determines whether the macrocell user equipment is authorized. If authorized, the macrocell user equipment is granted access to the femtocell base station. If unauthorized, user equipment information for the macrocell user equipment received on the backhaul connection is used to adjust the femtocell base station transmitting power to minimize the interference for mobile devices.

Abstract: The present invention provides a digital broadcast receiver capable of curbing memory consumption and shortening time required for channel selection processing. Immediately after channel selection processing is started, when a tuner is unstable, stream control means 104 estimates an identifier of a video packet from a ratio and a bit rate even when information necessary for channel selection is not acquired. Furthermore, the stream control means 104 determines when to store and output which transport packet to curb memory consumption. The stream control means 104, even when information necessary for channel selection is not acquired, sends video packets to a decoder to perform decoding in advance.

Abstract: A power system with low voltage ride-through capability. An inverter is connected to the output of a generator. The generator output is conditioned by the inverter resulting in an output voltage and current at a frequency and phase angle appropriate for transmission to a utility grid. A frequency and phase angle sensor is connected to the utility grid operative during a fault on the grid. A control system is connected to the sensor and to the inverter. The control system output is a current command signal enabling the inverter to put out a current waveform, which is of the same phase and frequency as detected by the sensor. The control system synthesizes current waveform templates for all phases based on a sensed voltage on one phase and transmits currents to all phases of the electrical system based on the synthesized current waveforms.

Abstract: The system has an actuator (2) releasing safety-related access region, and sensors (3, 4) detecting openings of the region or an access in the region. A code generator generates codes (12, 13) with bit positions for a communication output signal of a bus system that is connected to the system. The bit positions capture predetermined values by a detection of the openings or access by the sensors. Third bit position of the codes captures third predetermined value, so that an evaluating unit determines an instant condition of the actuator and the sensors, and is connected with bus system. An independent claim is also included for a method for safety-related communication in an automation system.
