Abstract: A head-up display system for a vehicle facilitating the use of night vision goggles for a person in the vehicle during night vision conditions. The system includes a light source for providing light to an image source. The image source is arranged to project an image on a semi-transparent combiner mirror.

The system includes a first and a second light source for alternatively providing light to the image source. The first light source is arranged to emit light of a first color to be used during daylight conditions, and the second light source is arranged to emit light of a second color to be used during night vision conditions, wherein the second color is mainly yellow or mainly orange.

Abstract: A method of frequency down-converting an input signal to an output signal, a first local oscillator signal is generated as a square wave having a duty cycle of 1/3 or 2/3, and the input signal is mixed with first oscillator signal to achieve a first down-converted signal, a second local oscillator signal is generated as a modified square wave having the same period time as the first oscillator signal and a duty cycle of 2/3, of which one part has a positive amplitude and another part has a negative amplitude. The input signal is mixed with the second oscillator signal to achieve a second down-converted signal. The first oscillator signal has a delay of 1/4 of the period time to achieve a phase shift of ?/2 between the oscillator signals, and at least one down-converted signal is multiplied by a pre-calculated factor. The resulting down-converted signals are added to achieve the output signal.

Abstract: A user device provides a mechanism for securing messages communicated between trusted processes along an established Inter-Process Communication (IPC) channel. The mechanism permits the trusted processes to determine which messages to protect, and executes independently of platform-dependent IPC mechanisms.

Abstract: An attachment bracket for fastening an airbag to a vehicle structure includes an opening into which a strap connected to the airbag can be inserted, and a clamping surface provided for resting against the vehicle structure. The attachment bracket is formed from at least a first layer forming the clamping surface and a second layer spaced from the first layer in a spring elastic manner. The first and the second layers can be located on the same side of the vehicle structure. The attachment bracket can be fastened to the vehicle structure by a fastening means. The distance between the first and the second layer can be reduced by fastening the attachment bracket with the fastening means. A clamping force acting between the first layer and the vehicle structure can be generated by reducing the distance.

Abstract: A transceiver front-end of a communication device comprises a frequency blocking arrangement, which may be either a transmit frequency blocking arrangement or a receive frequency blocking arrangement. The frequency blocking arrangement has a blocking frequency interval associated with one of a transmit frequency and receive frequency, and a non-blocking frequency interval associated with the other of the transmit frequency and receive frequency. The frequency blocking arrangement is configured to block passage of signals in the blocking frequency interval between said signal transmission and reception node and either said receiver node or said transmitter node. The frequency blocking arrangement comprises a network of passive components comprising at least one transformer and a filter arrangement adapted to have a higher impedance value in the blocking frequency interval than in the non-blocking frequency interval.

Abstract: Efficient carrier aggregation is enabled in a receiver employing a single frequency source, and dividing the frequency source by different frequency dividing factors to generate two or more RF LO frequencies. Received signals are down-converted to intermediate frequencies by mixing with the respective RF LO frequencies. By utilizing only a single high frequency source, embodiments of the present invention avoid spurious and injection locking issues that arise when integrating two or more frequency sources, and additionally reduce power consumption as compared to a multiple frequency source solution.

Abstract: In one or more embodiments taught herein, a multi-band MIMO repeater is configured to translate normal wireless mobile bands into other frequency bands in the physical layer. An advantageous, multi-hop repeater chain includes two or more such repeaters, for propagating downlink signals from a base station, and for propagating uplink signals to the base station. Each such repeater may use paralleled homodyne structure transceivers for better SNR, spectrum combiners for uplink signal aggregation, spectrum separators for downlink signal de-aggregation, water mark signal inserters for optimization, and, among other things, spectrum analyzers for frequency band selection. In at least one such embodiment, a multi-hop repeater chain is configured for MIMO operation in an LTE Advanced or other MIMO network, to deliver high data rate over larger distances—e.g., further away from cell base stations.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for distributing content to a mobile device using a digital rights management (DRM) scheme, adapted for the case when files are exchanged over an external memory or over a serial connection between a computer (PC) and the mobile device, and a mobile device (ME) adapted therefor. The mobile device creates a request file (RORe-questrop) comprising information necessary for forming a rights object file. On the computer side, the request file is retrieved and a response file is sent back to the mobile device including the encrypted content (Contentdcf) and a rights object file (Content.ro). The mobile device receives the response file and decrypts and stores the content. The files may be exchanged over a DRM folder, arranged in the mobile device and accessible by the computer in mass storage mode, or the DRM folder may be arranged in an external memory (MS) alternately accessible by the mobile device and the computer.

Abstract: An airbag for a motor vehicle includes an airbag skin having two side walls which enclose a gas chamber. The airbag skin is at least partially rolled to a shaped package in the resting state of the curtain airbag, with the shaped package having a non-circular cross-section. In order to provide a cost-effective way to produce such an airbag and to ensure that the airbag shows a deployment behaviour of a rolled package, the non-circular cross-section is permanent as long as the pressure inside the gas chamber does not exceed the pressure of the environment and is obtainable by plastic conversion of a rolled package with a circular cross-section.
