Abstract: A processing device includes a plurality of modulators, the plurality of modulators performing modulation according to a first modulation scheme, a combiner configured to combine outputs from the plurality of modulators, and a signal processor configured to receive a bit stream and convert the bit stream into a plurality of input signals for the plurality of modulators such that the combiner generates a modulated output according to a second modulation scheme. The plurality of modulators may be low order modulators and a modulation schemes of the modulated output may include, for example, rotated quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), high order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), and multi-resolution high order quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM).

Abstract: A wireless telecommunication system receives information from a wireless mobile unit and determines that the wireless mobile unit is within a designated region. Information specific to the designated region is received at a centrally located location-based message server. As the traveler enters the designated region, the wireless mobile unit then receives information specific to the designated region such as information relating to traffic problems or desired locations within the region. Alternatively, a problem is identified and designated as relating to a particular region, and wireless mobile units within the designated region are then identified so that information relating to the problem can be output thereto. As such, information specific to a region occupied to a traveler is received.

Abstract: A method for raising vine plants having a fruiting portion and a renewal portion, such as grapevines, for enhanced production and healthier crop. The method vertically separates the fruiting zone from the renewal zone by placing the fruiting canes in an upper zone apart from the renewal canes in the lower zone. The separation of zones improves air circulation and sunlight exposure, allows the two zones to have different cultivation techniques applied as necessary and permits the harvesting of the fruit without harming the renewal canes, making the method particularly applicable for fruit that can be dried-on-the-vine, such as raisins. A vertical canopy trellis apparatus for use with the method facilitates separation of the two zones and the switch from renewal canes to fruiting canes. A double tunnel harvesting apparatus allows the upper fruiting zone to be efficiently and effectively harvested while protecting the lower renewal zone from damage.

Abstract: A system that limits the torque of motors and discontinues motion control activity of system components in order to protect electrical and mechanical system hardware. Mechanical stresses are controlled by a microprocessor in a manner that they will not exceed predefined limits so that mechanical components will not be destroyed. Thus, replacement of major system components such as drive electronics and fuses may be avoided. Hence, there will be a reduction in service calls to repair the motors and system components.
