Abstract: An ice bank of a refrigerator is provided. The ice bank includes an ice accommodation chamber storing ice pieces made by an ice maker, and an ice pressing unit circulating the ice pieces by pressing the ice pieces for preventing sticking of the ice pieces in the ice accommodation chamber.

Abstract: Refrigerator with an icemaker including a cabinet having a mullion wall for compartmentalization of a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber, a case provided to a door on the refrigerating chamber, having a cavity therein, a first duct for supplying cold air from a neighborhood of an evaporator in the freezing chamber to the cavity, the icemaker in the cavity for producing ice, an ice container in the cavity for storing the ice, and a dispenser in the door in communication with the cavity, thereby having ice supplied to a user at an outside of the refrigerator through a dispenser provided to the door.

Abstract: Disclosed is a dispenser of an icemaker in a refrigerator for maximizing an inner space when a total size is the same, and for minimizing the total size when the inner space is the same. The dispenser of the icemaker in the refrigerator includes an ice chute being a passage through which the ice produced from the icemaker is discharged; and a container supporter provided at an outer case and disposed to be perpendicular to an outer surface of the outer case when the ice is discharged outside through the ice chute, the contain supporter allowing a container seated thereon to receive the ice discharged from the ice chute. The ice chute is closed and not exposed outside when the ice-discharging process is finished, and the container supporter is not exposed to the outer surface of the outer case.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes an opening/closing apparatus. In the refrigerator and opening/closing apparatus, an extendible cabinet with shelves is accommodated in a storing compartment. Therefore, food or other items can be loaded in the cabinet and taken out from the cabinet more easily.

Abstract: A method for transmitting signals for interference randomization is disclosed. The method for transmitting signals includes spreading the transmission signals using a plurality of orthogonal codes and transmitting the transmission signals spread by the plurality of orthogonal codes by a spatial frequency block coding (SFBC) or spatial time block coding (STBC) scheme. Among the plurality of orthogonal codes, codes of which mutual interferences are equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold are grouped to the same group, and orthogonal codes belonging to different groups are used for the spreading of the signals which are transmitted at the same timing. Accordingly, it is possible to realize interference randomization.
