Title: Estimation de canal pour systemes de communication mrof
Inventor: KRISHNAN RANGANATHAN
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 2003-10-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne des techniques d'estimation de la réponse de fréquence d'un canal sans fil dans un système à multiplexage par répartition orthogonale de la fréquence. Dans un mode de réalisation, une estimation initiale de la réponse de fréquence du canal sans fil est obtenue pour un premier groupe de sous-bandes sur la base d'une transmission de pilote reçue par l'intermédiaire de sous-bandes dans le premier groupe. Une estimation de la réponse impulsionnelle du canal sans fil est alors dérivée en fonction de l'estimation de réponse de fréquence initiale. Une estimation améliorée de la réponse de fréquence du canal sans fil est alors dérivée pour un second groupe de sous-bandes sur la base de l'estimation de réponse impulsionnelle. Les premier et second groupes peuvent chacun comprendre toutes les sous-bandes utilisables ou uniquement un sous-ensemble de celles-ci. Le multiplexage en sous-bandes peut être utilisé pour permettre d'effectuer des transmissions de pilote simultanées par des terminaux multiples sur leurs groupes de sous-bandes associés.

Abstract: An optical waveguide structure according to the invention comprises a core layer having a first refractive index ncore, an array of sub-regions within the core having a second refractive index nrods, the array or sub-regions giving rise to a photonic band structure within the core layer, and a cladding layer adjacent to the core layer having a refractive index ncladding, wherein; ncore>nrods≥ncladding and ncore-nrods>0.1. The structure of the present invention is less than prior waveguide structures having photogenic bandstructure regions. The out of plane divergence of light in the sub-regions is reduced as compared with air holes which are typically used in photonic crystal structures. As a result more light is coupled back into the core at the sub-region/core interface. Coupling of light into the buffer layer is also reduced. Furthermore, there are added advantages over the prior art associated with the fabrication of these structures.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for making a roll cover and a roll cover, wherein at least one material is applied to the surface of the roll or a base substrate. In a first embodiment, a single material is applied as a flowable phase. A uniform coating of the material is applied to the roll, and upon setting of the material, such as by cooling, curing, or other means, a smooth and permanent roll cover is formed upon the surface of the roll. In another embodiment, at least two materials are applied in flowable phases to the surface of the roll. The first material may be a sacrificial, removable first material, applied to the surface of the roll cover in a preselected pattern. After the sacrificial material has been applied, a second material, such as a functional resin, is applied to the surface of the roll cover with the sacrificial material removed after the second material has set. In another embodiment, the use of sacrificial material is avoided and the material is applied in a predetermined pattern. In a fourth embodiment, two or more different materials are applied.
