  • Patent number: 8374295
    Abstract: A mobile device capable of scaling input data and a method thereof. The mobile device comprises a data segmentation module, a quality measure module, and a scaling module. The data segmentation module divides the input data into a plurality of subdata. The quality measure module, coupled to the data segmentation module, calculates signal quality of each subdata. The scaling module, coupled to the quality measure module, scales each subdata according to corresponding signal quality.

  • Patent number: 7937643
    Abstract: A mobile communication device and a data reception method implemented thereby are provided. An antenna receives a signal, and an inner receiver demodulates the received signal to generate an equalizer output. A channel decoder is coupled to the inner receiver, decoding the equalizer output to generate a data sequence. A quality estimator estimates signal quality of the received signal to generate a quality value. An error checker selectively performs cyclic redundancy code (CRC) check or CRC correction on the data sequence according to the quality value.

  • Patent number: 7936856
    Abstract: A synchronization circuit includes a correlator, an energy calculator, a post-processing unit, and a decision device. The correlator correlates a received sequence r(t) with a local sequence c(i) to obtain a correlation result h(t). The energy calculator calculates an energy function of the correlation result h(t), and filters the energy function of the correlation result by a channel impulse response wc(l) to obtain a filtered energy function e(t), where l is the index of the channel impulse response. The post-processing unit applies weighting function wa(t) to the filtered energy e(t) to obtain a weighted energy function e?(t), wherein the weighting function wa(t) weights a central portion of the filtered energy function e(t). The decision device selects a maximum energy value from the weighted energy function e?(t), and the time index t with maximum energy value is the time shift of the received sequence and the local sequence.
