  • Patent number: 7869380
    Abstract: A method of channel assessment and channel searching in a wireless network is disclosed. The wireless network separately performs a channel assessment procedure and a channel searching procedure for channel change or another object. The channel assessment procedure is to measure a status or quality of a channel which is currently used in the wireless network. A coordinator of the wireless network designates a time interval for the channel assessment to notify other device of it. The channel assessment procedure may be performed periodically, and is preferably scheduled to allow other devices not to use the channel for the time interval which at least one device performs channel assessment.

  • Publication number: 20100329212
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a handover method that a current coordinator transfers a coordinating function of controlling a network to a different device configuring the network. The present invention relates to a method of selecting an optimal device as a coordinator in selecting the different device using priority information decided by a prescribed evaluation reference. And, the present invention relates to a method of simplifying a procedure in a manner of transmitting relevant information together with a handover request message. In a wireless network including a coordinator, a secondary coordinator is decided in advance. If the coordinator is suddenly unable to perform a function, the present invention relates to a method of enabling the function of the coordinator to be performed by the decided secondary coordinator. Thus, a process for transferring the coordinating function without the handover process is called a recovery process.

    Abstract: Provided are a pulse width modulation (PWM) apparatus and a light source-driving apparatus including the PWM apparatus. The PWM apparatus includes a voltage division part, a capacitor part, a first operational amplifier, a first noise reduction part, and a second operational amplifier. The voltage division part divides and outputs an input voltage. The capacitor part charged by an input current or discharged for provides a charge voltage. The first operational amplifier operates according to a result of comparing a divided voltage output from the voltage division part with the charge voltage output from the capacitor part. The first noise reduction part removes a high frequency noise of the divided voltage. The second operational amplifier converts a signal generated from the capacitor part into a pulse width modulation signal by a dimming control signal.
