Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing uplink transmission in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) system are disclosed. At a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), input data is encoded and parsed into a plurality of data streams. After modulation and Fourier transform, one of transmit beamforming, space time coding (STC) and spatial multiplexing is selectively performed based on channel state information. Symbols are then mapped to subcarriers and transmitted via antennas. The STC may be space frequency block coding (SFBC) or space time block coding (STBC). Per antenna rate control may be performed on each data stream based on the channel state information. At a Node-B, MIMO decoding may be performed based on one of minimum mean square error (MMSE) decoding, MMSE-successive interference cancellation (SIC) decoding and maximum likelihood (ML) decoding. Space time decoding may be performed if STC is performed at the WTRU.

Abstract: A system for treating products (P), such as foodstuff products, in the course of packaging comprises a plurality of extraction stations (12) set cascaded along a flow (F) of products (P) that has the character of a disorderly array, in which rows or ranks are not in general distinguishable. The extraction stations (12) may be traversed by the flow (F) possibly likewise deriving from the flow (F) itself respective derived flows (F1, F2, ..., Fj) of products (P).  The speeds of operation of the extraction stations (12) are adjustable for regulating the intensities of the respective derived flows (F1, F2, ..., Fj) . The extraction stations (12) have associated thereto inspection stations (preferably of a visual type, e.g., laser type) for detecting the intensities of the derived flows (F1, F2, ..., Fj), whilst said derived flows (F1, F2, ..., Fj) are kept, at least temporarily, as disorderly arrays of advancing products, without proceeding to accumulations or any reordering thereof. A control system (K) operatively connected to the inspection stations (130) and to the extraction stations (12) enables regulation of the speeds of operation (122) of the extraction stations (12) as a function of the intensity detected by the inspection stations (130) so as to be able to exert an effective action of balancing of the derived flows.

IPC: C01B3/32
Filed: 2005-10-31
Abstract: A hydrogen generation assembly includes a feedstock delivery system that selectively delivers a heating fuel and a hydrogen-production fluid. The delivery system includes a valve assembly that selectively and separately discharges the fluid and the fuel. The valve assembly discharges the heating fuel until a predetermined condition occurs prior to discharging the hydrogen-production fluid, and automatically switches betwee n discharging the heating fuel and discharging the hydrogen-production fluid upon the occurrence of the condition. A hydrogen-producing region receives the hydrogen-production flui d from the delivery system and produces a stream containing hydrogen gas as a majority component. A heating assembly receives the fuel from the delivery system and combusts it to produce an exhaust stream for heating the hydrogen-producing region. A fuel cell stack receives at least a portion of the stream containing hydrogen gas and produces an electric current. The fuel cell stack has a rated power output of 100-1000 watts.

Abstract: A flexible and relatively hardware efficient LDPC encoder is described (300).  The encoder cm be implemented with a level of parallelism which is less than the full parallelism of the code structure used to control the encoding process (301).  Each command of a relatively simple microcode used to describe the code structure can be stored and executed multiple times to complete the encoding of a codeword (354).  Different codeword lengths can be supported using the same set of microcode instructions but with the code being implemented a different number of times depending on the lifting factor selected to be used (310). The LDPC encoder can switch between encoding codewords of different lengths, without the need to change the stored code description information, by simply changing a code lifting factor used to control the encoding processes (310). When coding codewords shorter than the maximum supported codeword length some block storage locations and/or registers may go unused (308).
