Inventor: MURRILLO BARRERA ALEX
IPC: H04B1/7107
Filed: 2002-04-19
Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for demodulating a received signal using a configurable receiver. The receiver performs the demodulation of a signal according to a selected interference cancellation demodulation scheme. The same receiver can be configured, by setting certain parameters, to behave as a successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme receiver, a parallel interference cancellation (PIC) scheme receiver, or a hybrid interference cancellation (HIC) scheme receiver. In another aspect of the present invention, the receiver performs its demodulation operation using a single interference cancellation unit (ICU). In addition, the ICU's despreading and respreading functions may be performed by the same processing element.

Said construction comprises a support- and perturbing-structure (1), with bar elements arranged in a plane, which are crossed by at least one light-guiding fibre (2) at periodic separations, whereby the fibre alternately passes above and below the elements. The support- and perturbing-structure is embodied such that, during production, no end of the light-guiding fibre need be passed between the bar elements. The support- and perturbing-structure and light-guiding fibre can optionally be enveloped by an elastic sleeve (4) and/or an elastomeric body (3).

Abstract: In an elastic sheet member of the present invention, a silicon
rubber sheet is supported by a fixed member. A wire group
functioning as contacts is disposed at either one of the silicon
rubber sheet or the fixed member. In other words, electrical
continuity paths, which were conventionally provided at a printed
circuit board, are basically provided at the elastic sheet member
which is formed of a non-conductive material. In accordance with
the present invention, there is no need for the printed circuit
board to cover a range at which all rubber contacts are disposed,
as in conventional art. Accordingly, the printed circuit board
can be made compact, space required for placement thereof can be
reduced, and degrees of freedom in design are increased.

Abstract: Disclosed is a data detector for detecting data placed on a bi-directional data channel having two nodes. The data on the data channel is a combination of data placed on the data channel at both nodes. The data detector at the first node compares data received from the data channel to multiple reference voltages. Which reference voltages are used for comparison is determined by the state of data placed on the data channel at the first node. By comparing the data from the data channel to more than one reference voltage data can be detected with a swing margin of about 50%, such that it is less affected by noise, power or other glitches than are conventional circuits. Methods of detecting data are also disclosed.

Title: Event driven dynamic logic for reducing power consumption
Inventor: KANG SUNG-MO
IPC: H03K19/00
Filed: 2003-08-07
Abstract: Methods and circuits are described for reducing power consumption within digital logic circuits by blocking the passage of clock signal transitions to the logic circuits when the clock signal would not produce a desired change of state within the logic circuit, such as at inputs, intermediary nodes, outputs, or combinations. By way of example, the incoming clock is blocked if a given set of logic inputs will not result in an output change of state if a clock signal transition were to be received. By way of further example, the incoming clock is blocked in a data flip-flop if the input signal matches the output signal, such that receipt of a clock transition would not produce a desired change of state in the latched output. The invention may be utilized for creating lower power combinatorial and/or sequential logic circuit stages subject to less unproductive charging and discharging of gate capacitances.
