Abstract: A modular camera and printer is disclosed. A camera module is provided having an image sensor for capturing an image in a RGB format. The camera module also has a central processing unit with program memory for storing program steps for execution by the central processing unit to operate the camera module, and an image storage memory for storing the captured image in the RGB format. An image processing unit of the camera module is in communication with the image storage memory and transforms image data in the image storage memory into a L*a*b* format. The camera module also has a serial bus for outputting transformed image data in the L*a*b* format. A printer module is provided also having a serial bus in communication with the serial bus of the camera module. The printer module receives the image data from the camera module in the L*a*b* format, converts the image data to a color space of the printer module, and then prints the image data on a printhead.

IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2001-02-12
Abstract: The present invention solves the aforementioned problem of decreased signal
performance which occurs during half rate and lower channel relative to full rate channel by
dividing the position number of the frame (the frame number) by the frequency hopping rate,
rounding the resultant down to the nearest integer and using the new integer as the frame number
to obtain the carrier frequency for the time slot of the upcoming frame. Stated as a relationship,
f 1 / 1 =  f n  / x where f n  is the position number of the upcoming frame and f 1 / n is the position number
of the frame that is to be used to determine the actual carrier frequency that is to be used for the
time slot of the upcoming frame f n , and x is the channel rate. With cyclic hopping, the above
relationship is valid in those instances where the number of carrier frequencies and the reciprocal
of the channel hopping rate have a common divisor.
