Abstract:
A subchannel scheduling method in a multi-user MIMO-OFDM environment modifies proportional fairness scheduling specifications and maximizes a system throughput under conditions that a minimum data transmission rate required by a multimedia user be ensured. In a method for allocating subchannels in a wireless network, plural users are subscribed in the wireless network, a base station has NT transmission antennas, a user i has NR reception antennas, a network capacity determined by the NT transmission antennas and K subcarrier groups is divided into K transmission subchannel groups, and a network bandwidth determined by the NT transmission antennas is divided into the K subchannel groups. The base station sequentially allocates channels to the users on the basis of a proportional value of a data transmission rate supported to each user and an average throughput of each user in a predetermined time and a service quality required by each user.
Abstract:
To enable not only releasing pressurization by a pressurization mechanism for pressurizing a belt thereby preventing a deformation therein but also easily and securely releasing the pressurization mechanism held in the pressure release state, thereby facilitating the installation operation of an apparatus. A pressurization mechanism for pressurizing a belt is in a released state prior to the use of the main body of the apparatus. Prior to the initial use of the main body, the pressurization of the pressurizing mechanism for the belt is exerted in linkage with a user operation of placing a recording material in a feed tray.
Abstract:
Sample image data are stored beforehand in a storage unit. A first generation unit generates temporary finishing information by making setting processing on the sample image data based on setting information, and a second generation unit generates input screen information including setting processing items to accept various setting inputs to the temporary finishing information. A display unit displays an input screen based on the temporary finishing information and the input screen information, and a setting output unit outputs setting information received via the input screen to the first generation unit. Finally, a copying processing unit executes copying processing with respect to the real image data based on the temporary finishing information.
Abstract:
A transmitter station and receiver station have common maximum number of transmission bits per symbol of each subcarrier and information of encoding types to be selected. The transmitter station selects the modulation type from the propagation path quality of each subcarrier, executes encoding with the encoding type corresponding to the number of bits for communication with the selected modulation type, distributes the maximum number of transmission bits per symbol of each subcarrier by dividing the code, and transmits the data through modulation of only the number of bits for communication with the selected modulation type among distributed bits in each subcarrier. The receiver station executes demodulation by selecting the modulation type used for demodulation from the propagation path quality, summarizes the demodulation result with addition of reception of the signal having a zero degree of likeliness for the number of wanted bits, and executes decoding to the result of demodulation.
Abstract:
Transmission power relative to a propagation path having a variation in gain is controlled to increase communication channel capacity, and a data rate is controlled in accordance with the variation of the increased communication channel capacity. In order to increase the communication channel capacity, the transmission power is determined so that the sum of noise power (=received noise power/propagation path gain) converted into one at a transmitter and the transmission power becomes constant. As a result, contrary to the background art, the transmission power is controlled to be reduced when the propagation path gain decreases and to be increased when the propagation path gain increases.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling the power of a signal transmitted between a base station and a mobile terminal which constitute a mobile communication system. At least one of the base station and the mobile terminal has functions to compare a predetermined reference value and a necessary transmission power obtained as a result of transmission power control in order to compensate for a signal intensity fluctuation occurring on a link between the base station and the mobile terminal, temporarily stopping the transmission if the necessary transmission power is larger than a predetermined permissible value, and transmit the signal if the necessary transmission power is equal to or smaller than the predetermined permissible value.
Abstract:
In an image processing apparatus, a plurality of images and a page allocation area including a plurality of sections are displayed. The allocation unit determines which one of the images is to be allocated to which one of the sections and allocates the images to the sections, and a preview image generating unit generates a preview image of the page allocation area based on allocation made by the allocation unit, and displays the preview image on the screen.
Abstract:
This invention provides a mobile communication system which expanded the operation limitation of the heretofore adopted mobile communication systems and improved the spectrum efficiency greatly. A data transmission method for use in the mobile communication system of the present invention includes means for channel pluralizing by which to expand the Shannon limit and means for interference reduction by which to expand the interference limit. More specifically, a transmitting module comprises M units of modulators and L units of transmitting antennas, generates L units of signals by multiplying M units of modulated signals by a complex matrix consisting of M×L units of elements, and transmits the L units of signals from the L units of transmitting antennas.

A method, system, and apparatus are provided for detecting a position of a terminal in a network accurately without a GPS receiver. In one example, a method for locating a position of a terminal includes calculating a position of a base station; detecting a clock time difference between the base station and another base station; measuring a reception timing of a signal received by the base station from the terminal; and locating the position of the terminal using at least the position of the base station, the clock time difference, and the reception timing.
