  • Publication number: 20160005380
    Abstract: A method of driving a display panel includes steps of generating a plurality of load signals, of which at least one load signal has a different timing from the rest of the load signals, generating data voltages synchronized to low periods of the load signals and outputting the data voltages to data lines. Accordingly, the data voltages synchronized to each of the load signals can be outputted to each of the data lines. A color coordinate problem occurring when applying a RGBW type may be solved by setting a charging time of a white sub-pixel different from the rest of the sub-pixels. Thus, display quality of a display apparatus including the display panel may be improved.

  • Patent number: 7636570
    Abstract: A method quickly resuming a downlink service in a hard handover in a cellular mobile communication system. To provide the fast downlink service to an MS during a hard handover from an OBS to an NBS, the NBS receives handover user information from the OBS, and generates an MS temporary ID using the handover user information to identify the MS. If user data is generated for the MS before a connection is established for traffic transmission between the MS and the NBS, the NBS transmits the user data to the MS on an HCCH using the MS temporary ID.
