Title: Method and apparatus for raman crosstalk reduction via idle data pattern control
Inventor: EFFENBERGER FRANK J
IPC: H04B10/04
Filed: 2005-12-22
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for reducing Raman crosstalk in a wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) optical fiber transmission system (10) that transmits a multiplex of channels. Idle data is sent over one or more of the channels of the WDM system in order to maintain the optical link (30) when user data is not being sent. The idle data has an idle data pattern, which can be controlled such that a power spectral density of a signal carried by at least one channel is shifted in order to reduce Raman crosstalk between the channels. For example, the power spectral density may be shifted away from lower frequencies of the channel, and toward the higher frequencies, by controlling the idle data pattern. Alternatively, the power spectral density may be shifted towards unused frequencies of the channel, by controlling the idle data pattern.

Title: Channel structures for a quasi-orthogonal multiple-access communication system
Inventor: GOROKHOV ALEXEI
IPC: H04J11/00
Filed: 2006-03-16
Abstract: A channel structure has at least two channel sets. Each channel set contains multiple channels and is associated with a specific mapping of the channels to the system resources available for data transmission. Each channel set may be defined based on a channel tree having a hierarchical structure. To achieve intra-cell interference diversity, the channel-to-resource mapping for each channel set is pseudo-random with respect to the mapping for each remaining channel set. In each scheduling interval, terminals are scheduled for transmission on the forward and/or reverse link. The scheduled terminals are assigned channels from the channel sets. Multiple terminals may use the same system resources and their overlapping transmissions may be separated in the spatial domain. For example, beamforming may be performed to send multiple overlapping transmissions on the forward link, and receiver spatial processing may be performed to separate out multiple overlapping transmissions received on the reverse link.

Filed: 2006-05-01
Abstract: A medical stimulation device such as a cochlear implant configured to provide stimulation of one or more spatially-restricted contiguous portion(s) of the spiral array of auditory nerve fibers in the cochlear ("discrete stimulation regions"). Each discrete stimulation region is defined by the constructive and/or destructive interference of stimulating and limiting signals simultaneously applied to electrode channels of an implanted electrode array, the stimulating and limiting signals being determined based upon transimpeda.pi.ce measurements of intracochlear electrode channels of the implanted electrode array representing specific spread functions of an individual recipient. The stimulating signal is preferably applied through a targeted electrode channel; that is, one or more successive electrodes which is/are adjacent to the discrete stimulation region. The targeted electrode channel is selected to represent sound based on the outputs of a sound processor to stimulate neural activity in the discrete stimulation region to thereby cause a percept of the represented sound.

Abstract: A system includes a wireless speech transmission device that communicates a wireless transmission of speech representing data in a first protocol via a wireless network.  The speech representing data conveys substantially noise-free human speech. A  wireless speech communication device receives the speech representing data in the first protocol via the network and couples representations of the data to a speech communication apparatus in a second protocol. A moveable barrier operator is within receiving range of the wireless transmission of the data from the wireless speech transmission device, intercepts the wireless transmission from the wireless speech transmission device, and recognizes a speech pattern from the data in the wireless transmission. A  barrier movement apparatus actuates the barrier based upon the speech pattern.
