Abstract: A steering support device which can perform steering support control excellent in follow-up performance on a traveling road by increasing a steering amount by steering control at the entrance of a curve. The steering support device (1), calculating a steering target value based on the shape of a road on which a vehicle travels and supporting steering depending on the steering target value, judges whether or not the vehicle is traveling through the entrance of a curve of the traveling road, and, if a judgment is made that the vehicle is traveling through the entrance of a curve, increases variation in steering target value as compared with a case when the vehicle is not traveling through the entrance of a curve. Consequently, steering amount of steering wheel can be increased at the entrance of a curve and delay in increasing steering amount can be suppressed at the entrance of a curve.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of transmitting audio data between a transmitter and a receiver. The invention further relates to a listening system. The object of the present invention is to provide a scheme for creating a low latency audio transmission link. This is achieved in that the method comprises  in the transmitter:  a) sampling an incoming audio signal to provide a stream of digitized audio  samples;  b) coding the stream of audio samples according to an audio codec providing a stream of coded samples; c) transmitting the stream of coded samples over a synchronous wireless transmission link;  in the receiver:  d) receiving the stream of coded samples; e) decoding the stream of coded samples according to said audio codec to a stream of digitized audio samples. Advantages of the present invention include a minimization of transmission delay while maintaining a relatively high audio quality. The invention may e.g. be used for wireless audio transmission from an audio source to a listening device, e.g. a hearing instrument, e.g. from an audio source, such as a TV-set, to an intermediate device between the audio source and the listening device.

Abstract: Outer loop/weighted open loop power control controls transmission power levels in a spread spectrum time division duplex communication station. A first communication station (110) transmits a communication to a second communication station including target adjustment information generated at the first station on the basis of measured error rates of communications from the second station to the first station. The second station receives the communication and measures its received power level. Based on in part the received communication's power level and the communication's transmission power level, a path loss estimate is determined. A quality of the path loss estimate is also determined. The transmission power level for a communication from the second station to the first station is based on in part weighting the path loss estimate in response to the estimate's quality and based on the receive target adjusted by the target adjustment information transmitted from the first station.
