Abstract: A display device having a set of non-pixel-selective electrodes (1a, 1b) and a set of pixel-selective electrodes (2a, 2b, 2c), so that pixels (15) are defined by intersections of said electrodes. The display further comprises means (3, 4a, 4b, 5, 6, 7) for applying an amplitude modulated (AM) signal to a non-pixel-selective electrode (1a, 1b), and means (10a, 10b, 11, 13) for applying a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal to a pixel-selective electrode (2a, 2b, 2c). The voltage difference between the electrodes defines the light intensity which can be emitted, and the available intensity varies in time according to the AM signal. The width of the pulse on the pixel-selective electrode represents the duration of light emission, and thus the gray level of the corresponding pixel. The combination of the two generates an exponentially distributed emitted light intensity, enabling gamma correction.

Abstract: Auxialiary data subband samples representing an auxiliary
data signal (315) are transported in a subband-coded
compressed digital audio signal without decompressing the
data. A pre-existing packetized data stream (305) is
provided to an input of an encoder (310). Subband audio
samples (406) are extracted from the packet stream and
normalized (408). The data to be transported modulates data
carrier subbands (SPD0, ---SPD-1, including a pseudo-noise
(PN) spread spectrum signal, each subband of which has a
bandwidth corresponding to those of the digital audio signal,
The modulated data carrier sequence is combined with the
audio subband samples (SS1, SS2---SSN-1) to form a combined
signal (452), then muLtiplexed (460) into pre-existing packet
stream (407). In the decoder (368), the combined signal is
demodulated to recover the auxiliary data signal (672). The
recovered auxiliary data signal is carried substantially
inaudibly in the audio signal and is spectrally shaped
according to the audio signal to enhance concealment.
