Inventor: MILBAR MAREK
IPC: H04H20/00
Filed: 2000-09-04
Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for frequency offset estimation in a hybrid
in-band on-channel (HIBOC) digital audio broadcasting (DAB) system. The frequency
offset estimation algorithm first determines the coarse frequency offset, in terms of
integer number of OFDM bin separations between an actual and measured location of a
correlated peak, followed by estimation and tracking of the partial (residual) offset in a
continuous fashion. A frame is correlated at a first frequency, and then the frequency is
shifted by a predefined amount, such as half of the inter-bin frequency amount, Δf,
before correlating again. The measurement with the highest peak of the plurality of
frequency values is utilized to obtain the course frequency offset estimate. The partial
frequency offset estimation algorithm utilizes phase information contained in reference
frequency points in the frequency domain. The phase rotation of the reference vector is
proportional to the frequency error, and the frequency error is extracted and filtered in
the time domain. The initial partial frequency offset estimation is corrected and used
for continuous frequency tracking. Following the course frequency offset estimation.
the unmodulated pilot bins (and all other bins), are within at least half the of the OFDM
bin separation. In the presence of a frequency offset, the complex bins start rotating.
The rate of the rotation is a function of the extent of the partial frequency offset. The
change in phase from one frame to the next is proportional to the rate of rotation, and
the sign of the rotation indicates the direction of the shift.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for generating a
command frame and/or a response frame transmitted and received to/from a
digital equipment. The apparatus includes: a host processor for outputting a digital
equipment code and operation control signal upon receipt of the signal outputted
from the input unit; a frame processor for determining the type of the digital
equipment upon receipt of the digital equipment code and operation control signal,
and generating a command frame and/or response frame; and a digital interface
processor for receiving the command and/or response frame and processing the
same so as to be transmitted to the digital interface connecting the digital
equipment. In the method for generating a command frame and/or a response
frame, there is an effect that a digital equipment must not be repeatedly
programmed in order to generate a command frame and/or a response frame as in
the conventional art.

Abstract: An information retrieval system implemented as a virtual data base management system to provide a problemoriented conceptual schema for one or more standard data base management systems. In the conceptual schema, a hierarchy of concepts is used to organise individual objects. A classifier determines which concepts an individual object is a representative of and determines the relationship of new concepts to existing concepts. The use of a knowledge base with a classifier permits conversion of queries into concepts and detection of changes in the relationships between individual objects and the concepts. A window-based user interface permits flexible and experimental access to the information. Special features of the user interface permit the user to specify conversion of a query into a concept, to establish monitors to detect such changes, and to define a query by specifying a portion of a graph.

times in a random access system. The access control
method of the present invention for CDMA system wherein a
base station is connected with a plurality of mobile stations
by the random access is characterized in that the base
station stores the propagation delay time of the preamble
signal into a memory unit, when the base station transmits a
rejection signal for rejecting a communication toward the
mobile station which transmits the preamble signal.
Further, the base station transmits a allowance signal for
allowing a communication toward the mobile station of

Abstract: A trench-fill material is deposited to fill a trench in a substrate disposed in a process chamber. An inert gas is introduced into the process chamber and a plasma is formed to heat the substrate to a preset temperature, which is typically the temperature at which deposition of the trench-fill material is to take place. The plasma is terminated upon reaching the preset temperature for the substrate. A process gas is then flowed into the process chamber without plasma excitation until the process gas flow and distribution achieve a generally steady state in the process chamber. A plasma is then formed to deposit the trench-fill material on the surface of the substrate and fill the trench. By establishing generally steady state conditions in the chamber prior to deposition, transient effects are reduced and more uniform deposition of the trench-fill material is obtained. The step of forming the plasma typically includes coupling source plasma energy into the process chamber at a total power density of at least about 15 Watts/cm 2 .
