  • Patent number: 8218667
    Abstract: A data transmission method for multiple users having multiple receive antennas is provided. The method includes selecting a receive antenna among the multiple receive antennas for each user, performing DPC (Dirty Paper Coding) from the multiple transmit antennas to the receive antenna and transmitting a transmission signal on which the DPC is performed. Since DPC is implemented through a receive antenna selected among multiple receive antennas, complexity is not much increased although the DPC is applied to a MIMO system.

  • Patent number: 8191750
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for cutting a LCD panel is provided. The apparatus comprises a first scribing unit for forming first scribing lines and second scribing lines for dividing LCD panels on a substrate having a plurality of LCD panels. The apparatus also has a first flipping unit for flipping the substrate, a first breaking unit having a breaking bar for striking the flipped substrate along the first scribing lines to form a crack on the substrate, and a plurality of breaking rollers for pressing the flipped substrate along the second scribing lines to form a crack on the substrate. A breaking process of an LCD panel may be performed without rotating the substrate by using the breaking bar and the breaking rollers. Also, the breaking process may be performed without damaging image display regions of LCD panels where different sized LCD panels are on the substrate.

  • Patent number: 8147112
    Abstract: A backlight assembly is suitable for emitting uniform flat light. The backlight assembly causes light from a lamp to travel in the form of flat light using a light guide plate disposed to have one plane facing the lamp. The light guide plate includes one or more rounded portions at one or more edges of an incident plane thereof onto which the light from the lamp is incident, and the one or more rounded portions cause the light from the lamp to travel into the light guide plate.

  • Patent number: 7511782
    Abstract: An LCD device and a method for manufacturing the same is disclosed in which the manufacturing process is simplified by etching an overcoat layer and a lower insulating layer at the same time. Disclosed is a method for manufacturing the LCD device that includes forming a thin film transistor (TFT) on an active region of a substrate, forming a gate pad region and data pad region, and forming a passivation layer on the entire surface of the substrate. The manufacturing method further includes forming an overcoat layer and selectively etching the overcoat layer. Contact holes for the pixel electrode, the gate pad, and the data pad are formed by selectively etching the overcoat layer, the passivation layer, and the gate insulating layer though one process.

  • Patent number: 7138656
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel and a fabricating method thereof for reducing the number of data lines and the capacitance of a parasitic capacitor between pixel electrodes are disclosed. A first switching part has at least two thin film transistors for applying a first pixel signal that is supplied to a first data line to a first pixel electrode under control of the second control line and the gate line. A second switching part has at least two thin film transistors for applying a second pixel signal supplied to the second data line to the second pixel electrode under control of the first control line and the gate line. A turn-on current value of wither of the two thin film transistors, in each of the first and second switching parts, is more than that of the other thin film transistor.
