  • Publication number: 20150365766
    Abstract: A method for separating audio sources and an audio system using the same are provided. The method introduces the concept of a residual signal to separate a mixed audio signal into audio sources, and separates an audio signal corresponding to at least two of the audio sources as a residual signal and processes the audio signal separately. Therefore, audio separation performance can be improved. In addition, the method re-separates a separated residual signal and adds the separated residual signals to corresponding audio sources. Therefore, audio sources can be separated more safely.

  • Publication number: 20150139000
    Abstract: CQI is enhanced in fast fading and/or poor RF scenarios. For example, in the event a fast fading condition and/or a poor RF condition is detected at a UE, a CQI value is increased by a defined delta. The UE reports this higher CQI value to a serving access point (e.g., base station) as long as the channel condition prevails this way such that a corresponding increase in throughput may subsequently be seen at the UE.

  • Patent number: 8923424
    Abstract: Providing for reduced complexity or improved accuracy in de-mapping received wireless data streams for multi-channel wireless communication is described herein. By way of example, a low-complexity likelihood algorithm can be employed to de-map data bits from the wireless data streams. In one particular example, the likelihood algorithm can approximate a received bit with a subset of received wireless symbols correlated the bit, reducing algorithm complexity. In other examples, a limited set of received wireless symbols can be employed for the subset, further reducing algorithm complexity. According to at least one other example, logarithmic terms of the algorithm can be approximated with non-logarithmic functions, such as a look-up table, series expansion, polynomial approximation, or the like. These approximations can enhance symbol de-mapping accuracy while maintaining or improving processing overhead for a wireless receiver.
