Abstract: An image processing method includes a transmitting terminal receiving a feedback message sent by a receiving terminal. The feedback message indicates a reception state of a received image frame sent by the transmitting terminal and received by the receiving terminal before the receiving terminal sends the feedback message. The method further includes acquiring a target image frame, encoding the target image frame according to a preset error correction mechanism to generate encoding data of the target image frame in response to the feedback message indicating a reception error, and sending the encoding data of the target image frame to the receiving terminal.

Abstract: A multiplexed space-time block coding (M-STBC) scheme is described that allows for transmitting a single multicast transmission in a heterogeneous MIMO (i.e., multiple-input and multiple-output) environment, where receivers with fewer antennas can receive a lower resolution version of the multi-cast transmission, while receivers with a greater number of antennas can receive a higher resolution version of the multi-cast transmission. Thus, the M-STBC scheme allows for transmitting the single multicast transmission that includes both a spatial multiplexing mode and a diversity mode.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for mass production of ginsenoside Rh2-Mix. The present invention includes treating PPD-Mix with an organic acid and heat to obtain Rg3-Mix and treating the obtained Rg3-Mix using a recombinant GRAS strain in the Rg3-Mix to produce Rh2-Mix, and thereby facilitates the mass production of ginsenoside Rh2-Mix using ?-glucosidase, which has been known to be difficult. Further, the present invention is advantageous in that the Rh2-Mix can be produced in high yield even at high temperatures, and mass production thereof for industrial purposes is practical as the production process is simple and more economical than direct use of an enzyme.
