Abstract: A Bezier curve drawing device is configured as follows. A control point coordinate acquiring unit (10) acquires the coordinates of a plurality of control points of a Bezier curve.  An inter-control point distance calculation unit (11) selects, using the minimum distance of a resolution for displaying the Bezier curve as a unit, either the horizontal distance or the vertical distance of adjacent control points of the Bezier curve, whichever is greater, adds up thus selected distances between adjacent control points, the added-up value being calculated as an indicator of the length of the Bezier curve. A division number setting unit (12) sets, based on the indicator of the length, the number of divisions to be used when the Bezier curve is divided and drawn. A Bezier division apex calculation unit (16) calculates, according to the number of divisions set by the division number setting unit (12), the coordinates of the end points of each interval obtained by dividing the Bezier curve.

IPC: H04W24/10
Filed: 2005-06-07
Abstract: Techniques for adjusting transmit power to mitigate both intra-sector interference to a serving base station and inter-sector interference to neighbor base stations are described. The amount of inter-sector interference that a terminal may cause may be roughly estimated based on the total interference observed by each neighbor base station, channel gains for the serving and neighbor base stations, and the current transmit power level. The transmit power may be decreased if high interference is observed by a neighbor base station and increased otherwise. The transmit power may be adjusted by a larger amount and/or more frequently if the terminal is located closer to the neighbor base station observing high interference and/or if the current transmit power level is higher, and vice versa. The intra-sector interference is maintained within an acceptable level by limiting a received SNR for the terminal to be within a range of allowable SNRs.
