Patent CA-2706480-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PARK JONG HYEON
IPC: H04L1/18
Filed: 2008-01-31
Abstract: A method and apparatus for combining retransmitted hybrid automatic repeat-request (HARQ) messages divided into coding blocks in an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)/orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) receiver are provided. According to such a coding-block-based HARQ combining scheme, the quality of each coding block may be compared to a threshold to determine whether the decoded bits or the HARQ  combined signal should be saved for each coding block for subsequent HARQ iterations. In addition to reducing the required HARQ buffer size while preserving the combining gain, coding-block-based HARQ combining may also provide fast decoding and reduced power consumption when compared to conven-tional HARQ combining techniques.
Patent CA-2710632-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURKE MURRAY J
IPC: B30B15/32
Filed: 2010-07-16
Abstract: An apparatus is provided for compressing a loose solid feedstock. The apparatus includes a two stage compressor. The first compression stage is a screw compressor. The second compressor stage is a reciprocating compressor. The reciprocating compressor operates co-axially with, and receives its feed from, the screw compressor.  The compressor establishes feedstock plug in a discharge pipe. A choke cone maintains pressure in the plug.  The choke cone is actively controlled in response to operation of the compressor. The discharge from the compressor has a cooling jacket, and includes an expanding taper. The reciprocating compressor, the screw compressor, and the choke cone are all adjustable in real time to control the compression of the feedstock according to a pre-programmed schedule that need not have equal compression and retraction strokes. The operation of the screw compressor may be advanced or eased off depending on the motion of the reciprocating compressor.

Title: Systems and methods for complex event processing of vehicle-related information
Inventor: NIELSEN STEVEN
IPC: B60W50/00
Filed: 2010-08-09
Abstract: A vehicle-based complex event processing (CEP) engine executes on a hardware computer processor in a vehicle. The CEP engine receives a first input stream onto which vehicle information related to the vehicle is published, and applies at least one query to the first input stream. The CEP engine then assesses, based on application of the query/queries, if a vehicle-related event has occurred and, if so, the CEP  engine publishes an indication of occurrence of the vehicle-related event on at least one output stream of the CEP engine. In one example, the CEP engine may receive a second input stream onto which image information is published, wherein the image information is based at least in part on data provided by at least one on-board vehicle camera.

Title: Systeme d'ecodage video parallele multitrames et multitranches avec encodage simultane de trames predites
Inventor: FRANCHE JEAN-FRANCOIS
IPC: H04N19/61
Filed: 2010-12-01
Abstract: H.264 est le standard de codage vidéo le plus récent et le plus puissant. Ce standard permet, par rapport à ses prédécesseurs, d'augmenter le taux de compression par un facteur d'au moins de deux, mais au prix d'une complexité plus élevée. Pour réduire le temps d'encodage, plusieurs encodeurs H.264 utilisent une approche parallèle. Dans le cadre de ce travail de recherche, notre objectif premier est de concevoir une approche offrant une meilleure accélération que l'approche implémentée dans l'encodeur H.264 d'Intel livré en code d'exemple dans sa librairie IPP. Nous présentons notre approche d'encodage vidéo parallèle multi-trames et multi-tranches (MTMT) et ses modes d'estimation de mouvement qui offrent un compromis entre l'accélération et la perte de qualité visuelle. Le premier mode, le plus rapide, mais dégradant le plus la qualité, restreint la région de recherche de l'estimation de mouvement à l'intérieur des limites de la tranche courante. Le second mode, moins rapide, mais dégradant moins la qualité que le premier, élargit la région de recherche aux tranches voisines, quand les tranches de référence .gamma. correspondant ont été traitées. Le troisième mode, moins rapide que le second, mais dégradant moins la qualité, rend une tranche prête à l'encodage seulement quand les tranches de référence couvrant la région de recherche ont été traitées. Nos expériences montrent que le premier mode de notre approche offre une accélération moyenne environ 55 % plus élevée que celle obtenue par l'approche d'Intel. Nos expériences montrent aussi que nous obtenons une accélération comparable à celle obtenue par l'état de l'art.
