The IP adaptor transmitting contents to the portable device includes: an IP address acquisition unit acquiring, from a predetermined recording unit by detecting a connection of the portable device, an IP address of a contents providing server which corresponds to the portable device; a network connection unit connecting with a network including the contents providing server which corresponds to the portable device by referring to the IP address of the contents providing server; a contents download unit downloading contents which correspond to the portable device from the contents providing server; and a contents transmission unit transmitting the downloaded contents to the portable device.

Abstract: According to the present invention, allowable displacement can be increased from an excellent stress relaxation effect achieved by applying a hinge structure while adopting advantages of a dual beam cantilever-type probe that can reduce scrub. Since the hinge structure is a structure that does not receive a moment, an effect that is the same as eliminating a moment in a conventional prove can be achieved so that stress can be evenly applied and the allowable displacement of the probe can be increased.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for transmitting multimedia objects in DMB is disclosed to reduce transfer delays and transfer errors during a multimedia object transfer by using a multimedia object transfer protocol in the digital multimedia broadcasting. The method for transmitting multimedia objects comprises; scheduling to-be-transmitted multimedia objects based on a pre-set number of iterative transfer times in such a manner that no identical multimedia objects are consecutively transmitted; inserting the scheduled multimedia objects into a transfer queues; and transmitting the transport queue-inserted multimedia objects to a Digital Multimedia Broadcasting receiving terminal via a multimedia object transfer protocol. As a result, transmission errors that occur during transmission of the multimedia objects to the digital multimedia broadcasting receiving terminal using the multimedia object transfer protocol can be prevented.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for receiving and processing a data broadcast signal is disclosed. The apparatus receives a data broadcast signal including the application information table and the application, and authenticates the received application. The apparatus can execute a corresponding application only when the execution of the application is permitted according to the authentication result.

Abstract: A host for data broadcasting includes a host controller configured to receive a request for searching a remote storage device connected to the host using a network from an application, control to call a method and detect the remote storage device in accordance with the received request, generate an event for returning a result of the detection according to the called method to the application, and return the generated event to the application.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a scheduling method and apparatus based on eigen values robust against spatial correlation in a mobile communication system supporting multiple users by use of multiple transmit/receive antennas. A user terminal estimates channel characteristics from the transmit antennas to the user terminal, decomposes the estimated channel characteristics into receive channel characteristics and transmit channel characteristics, and feeds back a transmit principal eigen vector to the base station (BS). The BS selects a predetermined number of user terminals having the least correlation using the feedback principal eigen vectors from a plurality of user terminals, constructs a user precoding matrix by combining the principal eigen vectors of the selected user terminals, multiplies data streams for the selected user terminals by the user precoding matrix and transmits the multiplied data to the selected user terminals.
