Abstract: Described is a transmission system (10) for transmitting an information signal (21) via a plurality of subchannels from a transmitter (12) to a receiver (16). The transmitter (12) first demultiplexes the information signal (21) into a plurality of information subsignals (33). Next, the information subsignals (33) are encoded according to a code with certain properties, e.g. a maximum distance separable (MDS) code, and multiplexed. Finally, the resulting subsignals (31) are channel encoded and transmitted to the receiver (16). The receiver (16) comprises a channel decoder (46,52,76,128) for successively channel decoding the received subsignals by incorporating decoding information (83,87,91) of already channel decoded information subsignals. Next, the resulting subsignals are demultiplexed, decoded according to said code and multiplexed into an output signal. Said code enables input symbols to be encoded into output symbols such that k input symbols of the k-th information subsignal are encoded with a kxm-code into m output symbols, 1<=k<=m, said code having the following properties: all k input symbols and all m-k other output symbols are determinable from any k output symbols, and no m-l other output symbols are determinable from any l output symbols l.

Abstract: Methods and systems to achieve linear and exponential control over a current to drive color LEDs have been achieved. Current digital-to-analog converters (IDAC) comprising each an exponential current digital-to analog converter and a linear IDAC, being cascaded to each other are used for a linear and an exponential control of a current driving a set of color LEDs, preferably RGB LEDs. The linear part of the IDAC, which is converting the mantissa of a floating-point number is used to control the color composition of the color LEDs. The exponential part of the IDAC, which is converting the exponent of the floating-point number is used to control the brightness of the color LEDs. While fading from one color to a next color a linear color change is required. The exponential part of the IDAC is used to dim the LEDs from bright to dark and vice versa. In order to get the visual perception of a linear dimming an exponential current change is required.

Abstract: A smokable rod (20) for a smoking article (10), such as a cigarette, possesses a co-axial or concentric construction. A longitudinally extending inner core (80) of tobacco cut filler is positioned within a smokable rod (20) . The outer material (70) that circumscribes the inner core in an annular fashion is composed of a tobacco material treated with an optional burn suppressing agent, and the outer material acts as a substrate for an aerosol forming material. A preferred aerosol forming material is glycerin. An outer paper wrapper (60) circumscribes the length of the smokable rod (20), and another paper wrapping material (90) also can circumscribe the inner core material (80). In use, one end of the smokable rod (20) is lit. When the opposite end of the smokable rod (20) is drawn upon, an aerosol composed of tobacco smoke, thermal decomposition products of tobacco, and volatilized aerosol forming material, is provided. Alternatively, a smokable rod can be provided by positioning the tobacco cut filler in the outer annular region (70), and by constructing the inner core portion (80) using the tobacco material treated with aerosol forming material and an optional burn suppressing agent. Alternatively, a smokable rod (20) possesses a single blend of smokable materials; at least a portion the smokable material being a tobacco material carrying a relatively high amount of aerosol forming material; and optionally at least a portion of the smokable material being in intimate contact with a burn suppressing agent. A filtered cigarette can be produced by attaching a filter element (20) to one end of any of those smokable rods.
