Abstract: A method for processing signals in a communication system is disclosed and may include pipelining processing of a received HSDPA bitstream within a single chip. The pipelining may include calculating a memory address for a current portion of a plurality of information bits in the received HSDPA bitstream, while storing on-chip, a portion of the plurality of information bits in the received HSDPA bitstream that is subsequent to the current portion. A portion of the plurality of information bits in the received HSDPA bitstream that is previous to the current portion may be decoded during the calculating and storing. The calculation of the memory address for the current portion of the plurality of information bits may be achieved without the use of a buffer. Processing of the plurality of information bits in the received HSDPA bitstream may be partitioned into a functional data processing path and functional address processing path.

Abstract: A UE receives a HS-PDSCH transmission from a base station and concurrently performs rate matching on systematic bits and parity bits (parity 1 bits, parity 2 bits) of the received HS-PDSCH transmission. The systematic bits and parity bits are buffered in a CPC circular buffer to support HARQ processing in a HS-SCCH-less operation of the base station. Memory locations are computed for the systematic bits and the parity bits according to corresponding transmission parameters such as, for example, redundancy version, number of systematic bits and/or number of physical channels. The systematic bits and the parity bits are stored in the corresponding computed memory locations of the CPC circular buffer. At least a portion of the stored systematic bits and parity bits are concurrently generated based on corresponding transmission parameters from the CPC circular buffer per request to support concurrent rate matching on systematic bits and parity bits.

Abstract: A UE receives HSDPA traffic comprising legacy HSDPA traffic and HS-SCCH-less HSDPA traffic. The UE concurrently processes the received legacy HSDPA traffic and the received HS-SCCH-less HSDPA traffic. The received HSDPA traffic is concurrently buffered into a first storage and a second storage to support simultaneously receiving legacy HSDPA traffic and HS-SCCH-less HSDPA traffic. A HARQ process is performed on the buffered HSDPA traffic in the first storage or the second storage according to a corresponding HS-SCCH CRC test. The resulting HARQ processed HSDPA traffic is Turbo decoded. Turbo decoding on the previously HARQ processed HSDPA traffic is performed simultaneously with HARQ processing on the buffered HSDPA traffic in the first storage or the second storage. The buffered HS-SCCH-less HSDPA traffic is processed via HARQ processing and Turbo decoding for each of the four pre-determined transport formats.

Abstract: Certain aspects of a method and system for handling signals in a communication system are disclosed. Aspects of one method may include mapping of at least a portion of a plurality of information bits in a received HSDPA bitstream to particular memory addresses without buffering a portion of the plurality of information bits during hybrid automatic request (HARQ) processing. The portion of the plurality of information bits may be sliced and quantized to determine the quantized value of the soft bits and the corresponding memory addresses. The processing of the plurality of information bits may be partitioned into a functional data processing path and a functional address processing path.

Abstract: A system allowing the real-time remote transmission of hand-drawn sketches drawn with conventional means (i.e., a pen or pencil and a piece of paper) is disclosed. The system tracks updates drawn on the paper and transmits them to remote sites. Updates may also be made at remote sites and viewed locally. Also provided are means for archiving and re-playing sequences of updates to a document. Significantly, the system has the ability to track any movements of the paper and to dynamically adjust the system to properly display the image correctly positioned on the paper at the remote sites.

Abstract: A system and method for extracting structure from stereo that represents the scene as a collection of planar layers. Each layer optimally has an explicit 3D plane equation, a colored image with per-pixel opacity, and a per-pixel depth value relative to the plane. Initial estimates of the layers are recovered using techniques from parametric motion estimation. The combination of a global model (the plane) with a local correction to it (the per-pixel relative depth value) imposes enough local consistency to allow the recovery of shape in both textured and untextured regions.

Abstract: A system and method for extracting structure from stereo that represents the scene as a collection of planar layers. Each layer optimally has an explicit 3D plane equation, a colored image with per-pixel opacity, and a per-pixel depth value relative to the plane. Initial estimates of the layers are made and then refined using a re-synthesis step which takes into account both occlusions and mixed pixels. Reasoning about these effects allows the recovery of depth and color information with high accuracy, even in partially occluded regions. Moreover, the combination of a global model (the plane) with a local correction to it (the per-pixel relative depth value) imposes enough local consistency to allow the recovery of shape in both textured and untextured regions.
