20100118993 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING AN UNABBREVIATED CHANNEL-IMPULSE RESPONSE IN AN OFDM TRANSMISSION SYSTEM - A method and a device for determining an unabbreviated channel-impulse response in an OFDM transmission system, of which the duration is greater than the length of the guard interval, estimates the channel-transmission factor at frequency-time positions of a relatively-coarse frequency-time raster, interpolates the channel-transmission factor at frequency-time positions of a relatively-fine frequency-time raster and calculates the unabbreviated channel-impulse response by means of inverse Fourier transform from the estimated or interpolated values of the channel-transmission factor at the frequency-time positions of the relatively-fine frequency-time raster. In this context, estimated values of the channel-transmission factor optimized at the individual frequency-time positions of the relatively-fine frequency-time raster are determined from received symbols and from transmitted symbols estimated by means of decision from the received symbols. | 05-13-2010 |

20140034400 | TRACKED MOBILITY DEVICE - A tracked mobility device includes a frame, a pair of track drives connected to the frame, and a rear wheel assembly that is independent of the track drives. Each track drive has a flexible track rotating around a set of wheels, with each set of wheels including a rear powered wheel, a central weight-bearing wheel, and a front roller wheel. The wheels are fixed to the frame at a height effective to cause the track drive always to have a “V”-shaped lower surface when viewed from the side. The independent rear wheel is at a fixed and constant height with respect to the frame, with the fixed and constant height being effective to allow the rear wheel to cooperate with the lowered central portion of each of said track drives to provide a three-point contact with a flat surface. | 02-06-2014 |
