IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2000-01-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting a sequence
of information symbols from a first signal subjected to
inter-symbol interference. The method is performed as one
or more signal processing paths are each being adapted to
setting each symbol in the sequence to a value. When an
uncertain decision has been taken in a given signal
processing path, the signal processing path is divided
into two. A after setting a number of symbols, the
sequence of information symbols from one of said one or
more signal processing paths as the detected sequence of
information symbols is selected. The threshold used to
determine whether a symbol is certain or not is adjusted
in accordance with an estimate of said noise. 
     The invention also relates to an apparatus adapted to
performing the method. 
     According to the invention the number of symbol errors
when detecting a signal subjected to inter-symbol
interference, e.g. in a mobile station, is reduced, and
therefore the performance of the receiver is improved.
Since unnecessary calculations are minimised,
computational complexity is reduced which, in turn,
reduces the power consumption.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système servant à trouver les préfixes de correspondance les plus longs d'arguments de recherche, tels que des adresses IP, dans une structure multiniveau de tables de noeuds. Des segments d'un argument de recherche donné présentant chacun une longueur déterminée individuellement sont sélectionnés. Certains segments sont utilisés comme argument d'essai destiné à être comparé avec une valeur d'essai stockée, le résultat de cette comparaison servant à établir une prochaine étape de recherche, alors que d'autres segments sont utilisés comme valeur-indice pour accéder à une entrée dans une table de noeuds. Par ailleurs, une combinaison d'essais suivie d'un accès indexé avec ces segments d'argument de recherche sélectionnés individuellement peut être utilisée pendant la procédure de recherche. Ainsi, il est possible d'adapter de façon optimale la structure de données de la table de noeuds et la procédure de recherche des préfixes de correspondance les plus longs à la répartition actuelle des préfixes sur l'ensemble de l'espace adressable. L'invention concerne également un adressage d'entrées à deux étages: un pointeur de base de table sélectionne une table de noeuds, la sélection d'entrées dans la table de noeuds étant exécutée en fonction du résultat d'un test ou d'une opération indicielle par détermination du décalage à l'intérieur de la table.
