Patent number: 6999503Abstract: The system includes a transmitter for generating a signal and a cyclic prefix, wherein the transmitter suppresses a plurality of sub-symbols of the signal to produce a partial response signal. A portion of the partial response signal is dropped and the resulting truncated signal is used to modulate a carrier signal. The carrier signal is transmitted to the receiver through a noisy channel. The receiver receives a noisy signal and recovers the carrier signal and, hence, the partial response signal from the noisy signal.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2000Date of Patent: February 14, 2006Assignee: Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd.Inventor: Venkatesh Vadde

Patent number: 6738476Abstract: A cover and a method for creating the cover are disclosed. The cover includes a frame and a lens secured to the frame. A first and second surface regions of the lens are proximally located relative to the frame, such that the first surface region is polished to allow light that emerges from the frame to pass through and the second surface region is rough in order to reflect light emerging from the frame. The method of creating a fading color hue in a cover includes the steps of creating a polished region on one surface the lens; creating a reflective region on another surface of the lens to allow for maximum reflection of light; creating a dispersion region on a third surface region of the lens, wherein the third surface is positioned opposite the reflective region; and securing the lens to the frame, such that the polished region and the reflective region are in close proximate to the frame thereby creating a gradually fading hue in the lens.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2001Date of Patent: May 18, 2004Assignee: Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd.Inventors: Ronald Jon Lander, Jr., Gregor Daniel Magnusson

Patent number: 6683599Abstract: A mobile telephone includes a body, a display, and a keypad. The keypad is removably secured to the body and coupled to a processor. The keypad is depressible along a plurality of directions and can be switched between a first mode and second mode, wherein each combination of depressible direction and mode represent a unique group of alphanumeric letters. The processor includes word recognition software, such a desire word can be determined form the sequence of groups of letter selected without having to select each individual letter.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd.Inventors: Robert A. Shepherd, Nikolaj Helberg Bestle

Patent number: 6593914Abstract: A mobile telephone includes a body, a display, and a keypad. The keypad has a plurality of individual numeral keys assigned to individual numerals and may be rotated with respect to the body. In this way it is possible for the presentation of information on the display to remain in a fixed orientation with respect to a user while the body is rotated about the display so that the mobile telephone can be converted from right-handed to left-handed use or the display can be moved from a first orientation to a second orientation.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2000Date of Patent: July 15, 2003Assignee: Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd.Inventors: Frank Nuovo, Todd Wood, Seiji Morioka, Eduardo Salazar

Patent number: 6552720Abstract: A compact device and method for communication and entertainment needs that include combining various functions performed by different keypads and units into a single pad or unit. The device includes circuitry with transceiver capabilities, a chassis, a display, two arms secured to the chassis that can rotate from an open position to a closed position, and a user-interface that provides the user with navigational control and image conversion. The method for reducing the number pads on a keypad of the device, which has the circuitry, includes providing a chassis for securely holding the circuitry, securing a user-interface to the chassis, coupling the user-interface to the circuitry, limiting rotation of the user-interface to a first range of rotational motion using a locking mechanism to provide navigational control, and releasing the locking mechanism to allow rotation of the user-interface beyond the first range of rotational motion to provide image conversion.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2000Date of Patent: April 22, 2003Assignee: Nokia Mobile Phones Ltd.Inventors: Andrew Julian Gartrell, Alastair Stuart Curtis, Tanja Finkbeiner
