Title: Content storage system, storage apparatus for use in the system, and method of controlling storage of contents
Inventor: AOKI TOSHIAKI
IPC: G11B27/36
Filed: 2007-07-19
Abstract: The first video server encodes the content played back from a VTR/DVD, thus generating encoded data. The encoded data is read from the first video server and copied in the second video server. The data thus copied is further copied in the third video server. Then, the encoded data is similarly copied in other video servers, the last one being the video server. Thus, the same content is stored in all video servers. The decoded content is output from the last video server and supplied to a video-audio monitor through a switcher. At the video-audio monitor, the content is previewed. Hence, whether the data items stored in all video servers contains errors can be determined by previewing them only once at the video-audio monitor.

Abstract: In the present invention, the slave base station (64) attains synchronization with the reference base station (62) through messages transmitted from and received by a mobile station (60) in the soft handoff region between the reference base station (62) and the slave base station (64). First, the round trip delay between the mobile station (60) and the reference base station (62) is measured by the reference base station (62). Once the mobile station (60) acquires the signal from the slave base station (64), it measures and reports the difference between the amount of time it takes a signal to travel from the reference base station (62) to it and the amount of time it takes a signal to travel from the slave base station (64) to it.  The last measurement necessary is a measurement by the slave base station (64) of the time difference between the time it received the reverse link signal from the mobile (60) and station the time it transmitted a signal to the mobile station. A series of computations described in detail herein are performed upon the measured time values to determine the time difference between the slave base station (64) and an adjustment o f the slave base station (64) timing is performed in accordance therewith.
