IPC: H04L25/02
Filed: 2000-11-17
Abstract: A method and arrangement are proposed for compensating for intersymbol interference (ISI) in a multi-carrier transmission system. Compensation is based on the generation of an estimate of the ISI tail and subtracting this from the received signals. This is achieved by determining an estimate of the transmitted symbols at the receiver by filtering with a transfer function (1/hest) that approximates the inverse of the channel transfer function for the carrier frequencies used. Estimates of two consecutively transmitted symbols are used to generate a difference symbol. When a string of zeros is appended to this difference symbol and the whole is passed through a filter (245) which has the same, or an approximation of the, transfer function of the channel (30), a transient results which is equivalent to that generated by the consecutively transmitted symbols passed over the channel.

Abstract: Rolling devices such as roller skates, skateboards, rolling
skis, and scooters are known which steer by tilt, but either
the wheels do not tilt, or the mechanism is of complex
design, or the wheels shift sideways upon tilt. A rolling
device shall have tilt-steering wheels which tilt with the
device, and which stay in the middle of the platform when
steering, and which are cheaply manufactured. 
     This invention comprises a wheel pair, consisting of two
wheels (3a, 3b) affixed to wheel-holders (4a, 4b), which are
interconnected by two cross-guides (5, 6) thus forming a
parallelogrammic link chain. The two cross-guides (5, 6)
swivel having their swivel axes (9a, 9b) oriented parallel to
each other providing an angle between the set of swivel axes
(9a, 9b) and the set of pivot axes (7a, 7b, 7c, 7d) of the
four links which constitute the chain. The cross-guides (5,
6) are fixed at the device platform extensions (8a, 8b) using
three universal joints. One such tilt-steering wheel pair
mechanism together with at least one fixed wheel are attached
at opposite ends of the rolling device.
