IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 2005-05-18
Abstract: Subversive DSV (SDSV) sequences of data symbols having a large absolute value of DSV are extremely valuable in the copy protection of optical discs as they can induce uncorrectable read errors. However, very few SDSV sequences of data symbols can be found in multimodal codes such as Eight-to-Sixteen Modulation (ESM) utilised in DVDs. It is required to select data symbols, for encoding using a multimodal code, which are capable of forcing an encoder to produce at least one subversive sequence of code words. A possible code word for a data symbol is selected if the code word has a large absolute value of DSV and there are no alternative code words, or all alternative code words are equivalent, or all alternatives except one are ruled out by RLL rules.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a method for generating synchronization bursts for OFDM transmission systems. The symbols of a predefined symbol sequence are mapped according to a predefined mapping scheme on subcarriers of the OFDM systems by a mapping unit (2), wherein the symbols of the predefined symbol sequence represent subcarriers of the OFDM system with nonzero amplitudes. A synchronization burst is generated by a inverse fast Fourier transforming unit (3) transforming the subcarriers of the OFDM system mapped to said predefined symbol sequence. The mapping (2) of the symbols of the predefined symbol sequence is set such that the resulting time domain signal of the synchronization burst represents a periodic nature. 
     According to the invention the predefined symbol sequence is set such that the envelope fluctuation of the time domain signal of the synchronization burst is minimized. Therefore advantageous symbol sequences reducing said the envelope fluctuation of the time domain signal are proposed.

Abstract: When a downlink communication channel quality is informed of in the downlink packet communication using a shared channel, the communication channel quality for each RB that is obtained by dividing a downlink into a plurality of small bands (RBs) is informed of via the uplink. As the downlink band is getting wider, the number of RBs increases and the bands required to inform via the uplink also increases. Then, in the mobile station, the communication channel quality (CQI) of a first band (reference RB) is represented by a first code, while the CQI of each successive RB is represented by a further code using the CQI of the previous band as a reference. A base station, receiving those codes transmitted from the mobile station, is capable of restoring the values of communication channel quality (CQI) for each RB. 
By coding a relative (e.g. differential) value expressing a relationship between CQI values of pairs of (e.g. adjacent) RBs, the transmission overhead for informing of downlink communication channel quality is reduced.
