  • Publication number: 20220366947
    Abstract: A compute-in-memory (CIM) macro device and an electronic device are proposed. The CIM macro device includes a CIM cell array including multiple CIM cells. First data is being divided into at least two bit groups including a first bit group which is the most significant bits of the first data and a second bit group which is the least significant bits of the first data, and the bit groups are respectively loaded in CIM cells of different columns of the CIM cell array. The electronic device includes at least one CIM macro and at least one processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to receive and perform operation on parallel outputs respectively corresponding to the columns of the CIM cell array, where the parallel outputs include multiple correspondences, and where each of the correspondences includes most significant bits of an output activation and least significant bits of the output activation.

  • Publication number: 20190089759
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a video encoding circuit and a wireless video transmission apparatus and method. The wireless video transmission apparatus includes a wireless transmitter circuit and a video encoding circuit. The wireless transmitter circuit is configured to transmit a video stream with a bit rate to a wireless transmission channel and provide a transmission state message according to a transmission state of the wireless transmission channel. The video encoding circuit is coupled to the wireless transmitter circuit to receive the transmission state message. The video encoding circuit is configured to perform an encoding operation on video data to generate the video stream to the wireless transmitter circuit and dynamically adjust the bit rate of the video stream delivered to the wireless transmitter circuit according to the transmission state message.

  • Patent number: 7257175
    Abstract: A method for detecting a periodic signal in a communication system. The method includes converting a time domain digitized signal to obtain a corresponding frequency domain digitized signal, quantizing at least two symbols of the frequency domain digitized signal to obtain quantization information, utilizing the quantization information to compute a detection metric for periodic signal detection, and determining that a periodic signal is detected if the detection metric is greater than a predetermined threshold.

  • Patent number: 6314147
    Abstract: A two-stage, space-time digital receiver provides improved estimates of data symbols from a received signal comprising the data symbols, co-channel interference, and intersymbol interference. The first stage uses a space-time linear filter to process the received signal and provide an intermediate signal with substantially reduced co-channel interference content and substantially unaltered intersymbol interference content relative to that of the received signal. The second stage uses a Viterbi equalizer to estimate the data symbols from the intermediate signal. Because the receiver performs Viterbi equalization on the intermediate signal with reduced co-channel interference, its performance is superior to that of receivers that directly Viterbi equalize the received signal.
