Title: Electronic parking meter system using inductive loop sensors to detect presence of vehicle
Inventor: FERGUSON RALPH G
IPC: G08G1/14
Filed: 2002-05-30
Abstract: The parking meter system disclosed uses electronically operated parking meters (4,6) coupled with sensors for positively sensing unobtrusively the presence or absence of a vehicle in a specified parking space controlled by the sensor and electronically operated parking meter. Induction coils  (8, 10) mounted below the surface of the parking area are used to provide positive signals to the electronically operated parking meter and a CPU upon both the entrance of a vehicle into the parking space and the movement of the vehicle from the parking space. The user then submits payment to the electronic parking meter (4,6), which then indicates the available parking time. When the sensors no longer sense the vehicle, that is when the vehicles leaves the parking area, the electronic parking meter is initialised back to zero.

Title: Encoding data using a low density parity check code
Inventor: YOKOKAWA TAKASHI
IPC: H03M13/11
Filed: 2008-11-26
Abstract: 585415 Disclosed is a data processing apparatus comprising a storage means and replacement means. Code bits of an LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) code having a code length of N bits are written in a column direction of the storage means for storing the code bits in a row direction and the column direction. m bits of the code bits of the LDPC code read out in the row direction are set as one symbol. The storage means stores mb bits in the row direction and stores N/(mb) bits in the column direction, where b represents a predetermined positive integer. The code bits of the LDPC code are written in the column direction of the storage means and read out in the row direction. The mb code bits read out in the row direction of the storage means are set as b symbols. In accordance with an allocation rule for allocating the code bits of the LDPC code to symbol bits representative of the symbols, the replacement means replaces the mb code bits such that the code bits after the replacement form the symbol bits. The allocation rule is a rule which prescribes: i) where groups into which the code bits are to be grouped in response to an error probability of the code bits are set as code bit groups and groups into which the symbol bits are to be grouped in response to an error probability of the symbol bits are set as symbol bit groups; ii) a group set which is a combination of any of the code bit groups of the code bits and the symbol bit group of the symbol bits to which the code bits of the code bit group are to be allocated; and iii) each bit number of the code bits and the symbol bits of the code bit groups and the symbol bit groups of the group set.
