Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is a time-delay invariant predistortion approach to linearize power amplifiers in wireless RF transmitters. The predistortion architecture is based on the stored-compensation or memory-compensation principle by using a combined time-delay addressing method, and therefore, the architecture has an intrinsic, self-calibrating time-delay compensation function. The predistortion architecture only uses a lookup table to conduct both the correction of non-linear responses of a power amplifier and the compensation of any time-delay effects presented in the same system. Due to the time-delay invariant characteristic, the predistortion design has a wider dynamic range processing advantage for wireless RF signals, and therefore can be implemented in multi-carrier and multi-channel wireless systems.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to translating a data structure to a video frame structure. For example, a computing device may perform a method of receiving analytic values of a data structure and converting the analytic values into raw pixel data such that each analytic value of the data structure is represented as a pixel in a video frame structure of pixels. The raw pixel data may be encoded into an I-frame in response to a determination that a difference between the raw pixel data and previous raw pixel data associated with previous analytic values exceeds a specified threshold. First data associated with at least one I-frame is retrieved in response to a request to view data changes exceeding the specified threshold.

Abstract: Provided is a method and an apparatus for determining a key pair, and a data processing method. The method for determining a key pair includes the steps of: generating a key pair index value based on a preset initial value of a key pair index, a scrambling code value, and an ID of a device performing data communication or a multicast/broadcast ID; determining key pair data as required from a secure storage area according to the key pair index value; and decrypting the key pair data using a preset high level key pair to obtain a required key pair. This method renders it possible for a data receiver and a data transmitter to “agree on” an encryption key, without a key management entity such as KTC/KDC. Thus, encrypted transmission of voice and data information can be achieved, thereby solving the problem of information leakage in an existing wireless communication procedure.

The first input signal and the predistortion correction signal are combined to produce a predistortion signal that is supplied to the power amplifier to linearize the output of the power amplifier.
