Patent EP-3024305-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WINGERATH NORBERT
IPC: G05F1/44
Filed: 2014-11-24
Abstract: A method for locally controlling at least two signal lamps (3, 3') for traffic applications, the method comprising: 
i) defining a desired rms current value for at least one of the signal lamps (3, 3'); 
j) measuring the actual rms current value within the same signal lamp (3, 3'); 
k) comparing the actual rms current value with the desired rms current value and evaluating a correction current value; 
l) adjusting the current to the desired rms current value by means of a control circuit (2, 2'), wherein the control circuit (2, 2') is powered by a constant voltage source, 
is characterized in that steps a) through d) are carried out for each signal lamp (3, 3') separately, wherein for each signal lamp (3, 3') a pulse width modulated signal is generated according to the desired rms current values independently of the adjustment of the current values of the other signal lamps (3, 3'), and wherein the polarity of the PWM-signal is modulated. Thereby safe control of signal incandescent lamps operated with low voltage in a short distance from the signal can be realized while the durability (lifetime) of signal lamps can be increased.

IPC: H03M13/11

Abstract: The invention concerns an extension to the enhanced serial generalized bit-flipping decoding algorithm (ES-GBFDA) for non-binary LDPC codes by introducing soft information in the check node operation. Contrary to the ES-GBFDA, the application not only considers the most reliable symbols in the syndrome computation, but also takes at least the second most reliable symbol in each incoming message into account. By doing so, an extended information set is available for the parity-check node update and this allows introducing the concept of weak and strong votes, performed by the check node unit. With this feature, each variable node can receive two kinds of votes, whose amplitude can be tuned to the reliability of the syndrome that produces the vote.
