  • Publication number: 20100254470
    Abstract: An apparatus for setting a pilot subcarrier in an antenna selects candidates of power value variables of a pilot subcarrier existing within a predetermined range, and calculates and extracts pilot subcarriers of a predetermined number on the basis of a nonlinear function among the candidates of the selected power value variables. Next, the apparatus removes pilot subcarriers of a predetermined number from the extracted pilot subcarriers of a predetermined number in accordance with a rule and configures the antenna on the basis of position values of final pilot subcarriers except for a virtual subcarrier among the removal result. Further, the apparatus configures the antenna on the basis of the power value by determining the sum total of the power values corresponding to the position values of the final pilot subcarriers to correspond to the number of pilot subcarriers.

  • Publication number: 20100257342
    Abstract: Provided is a parallel processor for supporting a floating-point operation. The parallel processor has a flexible structure for easy development of a parallel algorithm involving multimedia computing, requires low hardware cost, and consumes low power. To support floating-point operations, the parallel processor uses floating-point accumulators and a flag for floating-point multiplication. Using the parallel processor, it is possible to process a geometric transformation operation in a 3-dimensional (3D) graphics process at low cost. Also, the cost of a bus width for instructions can be minimized by a partitioned Single-Instruction Multiple-Data (SIMD) method and a method of conditionally executing instructions.

  • Publication number: 20100254295
    Abstract: A multicast and broadcast data transmission method is provided. The multicast and broadcast data transmission method includes transmitting, at at least one synchronized macrocell base station, Multicast and Broadcast Service (MBS) data to user equipment (UE) using radio resources allocated for MBS data transmission. Here, a relay or a small cell base station in the cell of the at least one synchronized macrocell base station keeps silent for the radio resources used for the macrocell base station to transmit MBS traffic data without performing any transmitting operation. Accordingly, it is possible to increase transmission efficiency while minimizing interference in a UE, and improve the quality of a multicast broadcast service while reducing required radio resources.

  • Publication number: 20100257360
    Abstract: A provider of the mobile communication program obtains the public key generated on the basis of a unique terminal identification number (IMEI) unique to an SDR terminal by a key generation algorithm, registers the generated public key in a key registration server, encrypts a mobile communication program with the public key, and distributes the encrypted program. The SDR terminal generates the private key on the basis of the unique terminal identification number (IMEI) by the key generation algorithm, decrypts the encrypted program downloaded from a server with the generated private key, and installs and operates the decrypted program. Since the mobile communication program is encrypted, although a third person tries to install an illegal copy program in an SDR terminal, the decryption is impossible, and the installation becomes impossible. In addition, it is possible to prevent ill-intentioned corruption and illegal reuse of an illegal copy program by the third person.
