Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To evaluate one communication network while performing communication in another communication network by improving compression mode communication. SOLUTION: A compressed frame is structured to include a first part, a second part and a separation slot between the first part and the second part. The number of user devices allocated to the first part and the number of devices allocated to the second part are determined. A new user device is allocated to the side having a smaller number of allocated user devices out of the first part and the second part. By this method of compression mode communication, the user device evaluates one communication network while performing communication in another communication network. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
A code division multiple access (CDMA) communication system reduces system self-interference and enhances system capacity by making rate selection decisions for individual speech encoders in concert with other speech encoders. The system utilizes perpetually weighted error metrics (401) as input into a rate controller (404) which determines and provides selected rates (402) back to the encoders (105). The system provides optimum voice quality and system capacity in that it allows specific encoders to decrease their rate, which improves capacity, as necessary while allowing other encoders to maintain their rates. This prevents needless degradation in voice quality at those times when system capacity needs to be temporarily increased.

A system of mobile communications devices including a first electronics device (310) having a first radio module (304) removably coupled thereto, a second electronics device (320), having a second radio module (302) removably coupled thereto, the radio modules supporting common radio communications devices when both of the first and second radio modules are coupled to the same device, and the first and second radio modules supporting radio communications of the first and second devices when coupled thereto.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for a disposable mobile communication device having a destructively removable radio module. The mobile communication device can include a disposable frame, a radio module coupled to the disposable frame, the radio module being irreplaceably removable from the disposable frame, an audio input module coupled to the disposable frame and the radio module, an audio output module coupled to the disposable frame and the radio module, a power supply module coupled to the disposable frame and the radio module, and an antenna coupled to the disposable frame and the radio module. The radio module can include a radio baseband processing module, an audio input, and an audio output.

Abstract:
A method for reducing the perceived download time of a web page. This method comprises the steps of downloading a first web page (302) that contains hyperlinks (104) to other web pages. The web page or pages corresponding to the hyperlinks contained in the first web page are automatically downloaded (310) to the memory of the device prior to any intentional selection of the link (312). This selection may be by the user or by the software configured by the user. When the user does select the at least one hyperlink, the web page corresponding to said at least one hyperlink is displayed from the memory (314) in the device as opposed to first downloading the web page to the device's memory and then displaying. This is most important as wireless devices are adapted to receive web pages as initial download time of the representative data may be substantial. Billing for the use of web pages or data is based upon the display of the web page or data, as opposed to the downloading of the data. When a web page is displayed, a display acknowledgement is generated (318) and then relayed or communicated to the respective billing service.
Abstract:
An equalization system for equalizing a corrupted signal is disclosed. The equalization system includes a complex matched filter (400) and a maximum likelihood sequence estimator (MLSE) (405) for removing the effects of phase shift, amplitude variations, intersymbol interference, etc. resulting from multi-pathing and noise contributed by the receiver front end. The system estimates a correlation signal C(t) (505) and synchronizes C(t) 505 to maximize its energy as seen on the taps of the complex matched filter (400). Taps having amplitude coefficients below a predetermined threshold are set to zero to produce a modified CIR estimate. The modified CIR estimate which has had the effects of noise virtually eliminated, is then used to construct the complex matched filter (400) and is also used as input to the MLSE (405) to produce a better equalized data signal.
Abstract:
A communication system employs a method for exchanging communicated signals between a remote base site (e.g., 63) and a central site (205) on a communication resource (e.g., 77) assigned to the remote base site (63). The central site (205) or the remote base site (63) determines that a signal must be exchanged between the remote base site (63) and the central site (205). The remote base site (63) then allocates the communication resource (77) for exchanging the signal from those communication resources (e.g., 76 and 77) assigned to the remote base site (63) for exchanging signals with communication units (e.g., 18) in the service coverage area (53) of the remote base site (63).
