20080309556 | Relative 3D Positioning in an Ad-Hoc Network Based on Distances - A positioning apparatus for a wireless ad-hoc network that can measure distances between network nodes that are in range and connected to each other. The positioning apparatus can calculate 3D positions of some nodes using the distance values using a relative coordinate system, first by measuring distances to neighbored nodes, receiving and sending distance reports to/from neighbors, by second initially advantageously selecting the set of base nodes to which the coordinate system relates, and by calculating positions of the base nodes and other nodes in the network initially, and by third detecting movements in the network and by calculating positions of the moved nodes. The network can compensate for movements of the base nodes, select the base nodes in an advantageous way, and cope with sleeping nodes, with unreliable communication, and with fluctuating network topologies. Neighbor communication is used only if no node is sleeping. | 12-18-2008 |
20090257487 | VIDEO ROBUSTNESS USING SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL DIVERSITY - The present invention relates to the fields of wireless communication, video transmission, unequal error protection, time diversity, space diversity. The present invention especially relates to a transmitter, a receiver, a method of transmitting video data and a method for receiving video data. The transmitter for transmitting video data comprises: A transmission section, said transmission section comprising a parser for dividing said video data into at least two classes and dividing each class into one or more blocks. Hereby, with each class there is associated a different number. Said transmission section is adapted to transmit at least one block of each class once on each communication channel of a set communication channels, the number of communication channels comprised in the respective set being given by the number associated with the respective class. Further, different communication channels correspond to different transmission times and/or different transmit paths. The receiver for receiving video data comprises: A receiving section for receiving said video data on a plurality of communication channels and generating a plurality of partial signals, each partial signal corresponding to a different communication channel. Different communication channels correspond to different transmission times and/or different receive paths. A decoding and validating section comprising a decoder for decoding a first block of said video data based on a partial signal of a first number of at least two partial signals and an error detector for determining if said decoded first block of video data is corrupted. In case said decoded first block of video data is determined to be corrupted, said decoder is configured to decode said first block of video data based on an other signal of said first number of partial signals. | 10-15-2009 |
20090323586 | USER INTERFACE BASED ON MAGNETIC INDUCTION - A receiving and transmitting node for a wireless data network, and a wireless data network based on magnetic induction. The receiving node includes an antenna receive module for receiving one or more data signals emitted from the transmitting node and a calculation module adapted to calculate one or more distances between the receiving node and the transmitting node, and/or adapted to calculate the position of the transmitting node in relation to the position of the receiving node, and/or adapted to calculate the orientation of the transmitting node in relation to the orientation of the receiving node. The reception of the data signal is based on magnetic induction and the calculation of the one or more distances, and the position of the transmitting node and/or the orientation of the transmitting node is based on the one or more data signals. | 12-31-2009 |

20130158633 | MOBILE DEVICE FOR THERAPEUTIC ACTION - The present disclosure relates to a mobile device for domestic use by a patient for therapeutic action on himself/herself, comprising: a millimeter wave generator that generates millimeter wave radiation, a millimeter wave antenna that emits millimeter waves generated by said millimeter wave generator in a predetermined direction, a coupling element that couples the millimeter wave antenna to the millimeter wave generator and that transmits the millimeter wave radiation generated by said millimeter wave generator to said millimeter wave antenna, a control unit that controls the millimeter wave generator, and a user interface that allows a patient to change settings of the device. | 06-20-2013 |
20130332471 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING A USER MUSIC TASTE DATABASE, METHOD FOR SELECTING A PIECE OF MUSIC FOR RECOMMENDATION, MUSIC PIECE SELECTION SYSTEM AND DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM - Generating a user music taste database, comprising determining, as a first count, a number of appearances of a selected classification identifier of classification identifiers in a user specific first set of music identifiers, wherein the classification identifiers are attributed to the music identifiers in the first set of music identifiers and determining, by the circuitry, as a second count, a number of appearances of the selected classification identifier in a second set of music identifiers, wherein classification identifiers are attributed to the music identifiers in the second set of music identifiers. A classification identifier related to the selected classification identifier is stored in an expertise list in the user music taste database, if a value determined from setting the first count and the second count in relation to each other is equal to or larger than a predetermined expertise level threshold value. | 12-12-2013 |
20140129227 | LANGUAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND INTEGRATED CIRCUIT - A parse unit parses an input sequence of token elements for an input string, wherein each token element contains a token and/or at least one corresponding token classifier. In a first mode the parse unit applies regular production rules on the token elements and on multi-token classifiers for phrases obtained from the token classifiers. If the first mode parsing does not result in a multi-token classifier encompassing all tokens of the input string, a control unit controls the parse unit to parse the input sequence in a second mode that applies both the regular and artificial production rules. A rule generator unit generates the artificial production rules based on the input sequence and/or intermediate results of the parsing. The parser unit provides a complete parse tree for ungrammatical sentences and a solution where the regular production rules do not cover the complete grammar of the respective natural language. | 05-08-2014 |
