Abstract: In a communication system which ensures that a slave device (1, 2, 6, 7) can successively transmit a plurality of answer messages without causing collision with another message on a communication line (3), in response to a request message from a diagnosis tester (5), control devices (1, 2, 6, 7) transmit their answer messages in the order of their priorities, with a communication blank duration provided between answer messages. If any one of the control devices (1, 2, 6, 7) has first and second answer message to be transmitted successively, the control device (1, 2, 6, 7) transmits the second answer message a communication blank duration after completing transmission of the first answer message. The control device (1, 2, 6, 7) can thereby transmit the first and second answer messages before a control device (1, 2, 6, 7) of a lower priority starts to transmit its answer message. Message collision on the communication line (3) is thus avoided.

Abstract: A receiver is described, for instance for GSM systems, wherein a plurality of digital signals
each comprising a training sequence (x p  (t)) usable to generate an estimation of the
transmission channel are received in diversity (A.1 ... A.N) in the form of a plurality of
replicas (10.1 ... 10.N) each comprising a respective replica of the training sequence. The
received digital signal is subjected to a delaying action thereby obtaining a plurality of
versions of such signal, each comprising a respective set of signal replicas. Each version
is subjected to a respective filtering action (23.1 ... 23.N) independently from the other
versions, by employing a respective first set of filtering coefficients (w* 11  ... w* N1  ... w* Nj )
obtained starting from a respective initial set of filtering coefficients. This respective initial
set is obtained by performing, for each replica of the received signal, a filtering action
exploiting a respective second set of filtering coefficients identified as a signal (u (t)) able
to generate, by convolution (u (t) * x p  (t)) with the training sequence, a unitary function
δ (t) on a given time window, preferably on one bit. The filtering coefficients of the first
set are derived starting from said initial set of filtering coefficients through an MMSE
adaptation, preferably with a initial rapid convergence phase of the RLS type followed
by an optimisation phase of the LMS type.

Abstract: In a stereoscopic video transmission system,
where an enhancement layer image is disparity
predicted using a lower layer images, the lower
layer image is made to more closely match the
enhancement layer image by shifting the lower layer
image to the right to compensate for inter-ocular
camera lens separation. The motion vector search
range for disparity prediction is reduced to improve
coding efficiency. At an encoder, the optimal
offset, x, between the enhancement layer image and
the lower layer image is determined according to
either a minimum mean error or a minimum mean
squared error between the enhancement and lower
layer images. The offset x is bounded by an offset
search range X. The x rightmost pixel columns of
the lower layer image are deleted, and the x
leftmost columns of the lower layer image are padded
to effectively shift the lower layer image to the
right by x pixels to obtain the reference image for
use in disparity predicting the enhancement layer
image. For arbitrarily shaped images such as VOPs
within a frame, the leftmost portion is deleted and
the rightmost portion is padded. At a decoder, the
offset value x is recovered if available and used to
reconstruct the reference frame.
