Abstract: Apparatuses and methods related to digital mobile radio (DMR) with enhanced transceiver are disclosed herein. The transceiver detects waveforms of signals received by a digital mobile station radio (MS). By detecting whether the waveforms of the signals, the transceiver allows a digital baseband processor of the MS to remain in a sleep state while the signals are being detected by the DMR, thereby reducing an amount of power used while the signals are being detected.

Abstract: A method of volume rendering two digital images includes providing a volume-rendering computing sub-system, loading a first image volume into a memory of the volume-rendering sub-system, rendering the first image volume, wherein a 2-dimensional image is output into an image buffer and a set of depth values are output into a depth buffer, loading a second image volume into a memory of the volume-rendering sub-system, rendering the second image volume up to the depth values output from the first image volume, wherein values from the rendering of the second image volume are merged with non-zero values of the image buffer, and rendering the remainder of the second image volume to include second image volume points beyond the depth values output from the rendering of the first image volume, wherein values from the rendering of the remainder of the second image volume are merged with non-zero values of the image buffer.

Abstract: An ultrasound medical imaging system having a flexible, versatile and programmable architecture, particularly with respect to a back end subsystem. The architecture for the back end subsystem is generalized and includes multiple identical and interchangeable processing elements or boards that combine to produce sufficient processing power to support real time imaging in the various modes of ultrasound operations. The architecture may also tune front end parameters for a front end subsystem based on back end processing, bypass faulty processing elements or boards, and/or distribute processing load across operational processing elements or boards. A method for operating such an ultrasound medical imaging system is also disclosed.
