Patent number: 9673855Abstract: An exemplary wireless communication network that includes a base that communicates with remote units located in a cell of the network. The base concatenates information symbols with a preamble corresponding to a destination remote unit. One or more remote units communicating with the base each concatenates information symbols with a preamble corresponding to that remote unit. An adaptive receiver system for a base unit rapidly adapts optimal despreading weights for reproducing information symbols transmitted from multiple remote units. A transmitter system for a base unit concatenates information symbols with a preamble associated with a remote unit in the cell. An adaptive receiver system for a remote unit in a communication network rapidly adapts optimal weights for reproducing a signal transmitted to it by a specific base unit in the network.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2015Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: THE DIRECTV GROUP, INC.Inventors: Dale A. Branlund, Phillip L. Kelly, Matthew C. Bromberg

Patent number: 5727083Abstract: A technique for improving the image quality of facsimile transmissions by actually recovering data corrupted by channel impairments without retransmission. The technique is adaptable to operate with existing facsimile communications standards and does not require modification of transmitter equipment. A significant increase in image quality results. In many cases, otherwise partially illegible documents can be read by applying the image correction technique of the invention.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 1995Date of Patent: March 10, 1998Assignee: Applied Signal Technology, Inc.Inventors: Phillip L.
