Abstract: In a wireless communications system, a base station employs a bit error rate (BER)
based Reverse Outer Loop Power Control (ROLPC) technique. The ROLPC technique
uses either instantaneous or weakly filtered values of the BER for comparison with a BER
target value for adjusting a target signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The BER target value is
varied as a function of a second order statistic (e.g. variance, standard deviation) of the
received SNR. In another embodiment, a symbol error count based ROLPC technique
uses adaptive SER targets. In particular, a base station uses a 2 nd  order statistic, e.g.,
standard deviation (variance), to identify, or act as a signature of, a particular cellular
(wireless) communications environment. The base station monitors the standard deviation
of the symbol error count of a received signal (transmitted from a mobile station). The
target signal-to-noise ratio (( E b   / N 0 ) T   ) of this received signal is adjusted as a function of the
value of the standard deviation and the adjusted ( E b /N 0   )   T    target is used to provide power
control.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et des techniques laser compensant une chute de fluence laser ou des pertes d'irradiation lorsqu'un faisceau laser d'ablation traverse une surface courbe (par exemple, tissu cornéen). Le système et les techniques considérés compensent les différences de fluence d'impulsion en impulsion par ajustement d'un paramètre approprié de faisceau laser. En mode de réalisation préféré, le nombre d'impulsions appliquées à la périphérie, la taille ou la forme du faisceau laser d'ablation, sont ajustés par exemple au moyen d'une ouverture variable placée dans le trajet du faisceau, par modification du grossissement de l'optique relais du trajet du faisceau ou par augmentation du nombre de points d'ablation dans les parties périphériques d'une zone d'ablation par rapport au nombre de points d'ablation dans une partie centrale de la zone d'ablation. On compense la fluence par le biais de facteurs de correction de fluence mesurés empiriquement ou théoriques, en fonction de l'angle du faisceau laser, de la taille et de la forme des points d'ablation, etc. Outre la modification du grossissement, on utilise une modification de la taille d'ouverture imagée sur l'oeil pour assurer une densité d'énergie (fluence) uniforme sur toute la zone du site d'irradiation. On fait appel à ces techniques isolément ou en liaison avec un remodelage de la courbure de l'oeil pour corriger la myopie, l'hypermétropie, l'astigmatisme ou toute combinaison de ces défauts de la vue.
