Abstract: A system for implementing self aggregating communication operations. Wireless communication transports may utilize basic radio transmission units for communication (e.g., such as a symbol, groups of symbols, etc.). Radio transmission units may comprise, for example, one or more message packets. The one or more message packets may be added to a radio transmission unit in preparation for wireless transmission. If unused space exists in the radio transmission unit after the one or more packets have been added, copies of the one or more the packets may also be inserted into the radio transmission unit. Any unfilled space remaining in the radio transmission unit that cannot accommodate complete copies of the one or more message packets may be filled utilizing zero padding. Radio transmission units composed in this manner (e.g., including multiple occurrences of each packet) may be deemed “self aggregated.

The user terminal also may generate subsection information to assign a subsection of the media signal to the user terminal corresponding to the spatial relationship, and may communicate the subsection information to the user terminal.

Abstract: A receiver includes, in series, at least one receive antenna, a buffer, and arithmetic logic block, a symbol detector, and a phase noise estimator. A further feedback loop couples an output of the phase noise estimator to an input of the arithmetic logic block for providing an estimate of phase noise. The buffer is for storing the received signal. The arithmetic logic block, such as a multiplier, is for removing the estimate of phase noise, received via the feedback loop, from the buffered signal. The symbol detector is for estimating a symbol from the output of the arithmetic logic block. The phase noise estimator estimates phase noise from two inputs received from the symbol detector: the estimated symbol and the remainder signal. Preferably, the phase noise estimator performs an IFFT on these two inputs and Kalman filters the result. Iteratively estimating the phase noise improves precision substantially.

Abstract: The black level in raw image data captured from an image sensor does not always stay fixed at a constant level, but may change as a function of the analog gain and exposure time and may vary from one spatial location of the pixels to another. To carry out black-level correction on the raw image data, the black level of each of the color components is measured at one or more sampling locations. A look-up table is generated based on the measured black levels and a computation module is used to carry out black-level correction based on the information stored in the look-up table. The look up table may have information indicative of the analog gain level and the exposure time and the variations of black-levels in different spatial locations.
