Abstract: A method for analog to digital conversion (ADC) characterised by; applying a non-linear transfer function to an input signal, such that the relation between the quantisation levels of the converter and the input signal vary as a non-linear function of the magnitude of the input signal. The non-linear transfer function is related to an at least approximate measurement of probability density function ‘p(x)’ of said input signal so that larger quantisation bins of the converter correspond to less probable values of the input signal.The relation is iteratively updated by updating quantisation levels.

Abstract: A Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) communication system comprises an air interface scheduler for allocating air interface resource to a plurality of user equipments transmitting to a MIMO receiver. A vector processor of the scheduler determines a receive equalizer vector for the MIMO receiver for each of a plurality of user equipments in response to a channel matrix for the user equipment. The vector processor may specifically apply singular value decomposition to the channel matrix to determine the receive equalizer vector. An orthogonality processor then determines orthogonality measures between receive equalizer vectors for different sets of user equipments. A selection processor selects a set of user equipments to be allocated a shared MIMO air interface resource in response to the orthogonality measures. By scheduling in response to orthogonality of receiver operations, a reduced interference and/or reduced receiver complexity can be achieved.

Abstract: The card (40) is a plate in the form of a bank card which is provided with a power source, a microcontroller (144), a personal data memory (254), an acquired data memory (256), and a data-in-transit memory (212). Each card possesses two coupling members, i.e. a transmitter and a receiver on each of its faces, together with two manual activators (42-52) adapted to put it into operation. An operation of interchanging data between a plurality of cards (40.1, . . . , 40.4) comprises an initial step of checking feasibility in which a down stage during which the personal data in each card is accumulated (arrows 41.1, 41.2, 41.3) in the data-in-transit memories (212) of the cards disposed there beneath, and the other stage being an up stage symmetrical to the preceding stage. The end of this second stage triggers a down procedure in which the acquired data memories (256) are loaded. The last card in the stack issues an audible signal (58) to indicate that the operation has finished successfully. The card may be inserted in the appliance for making use thereof which is itself connectable to an external microcomputer, in order to display or process the acquired data, to modify the stored personal data, to enable or disable interchange thereof, or to apply a particular applications program thereto. Applications include intelligent calling cards and multipurpose cards.
