| 20100146734 | Control hinge for stabilizing door - This invention relates to multiple configurations of devices to restrain a door or similar hinged, swinging appliance from autonomously swinging away from an initial fully or partially opened position to which it has been adjusted. No external, unattached parts are employed. The invention is applicable to any hinged, swinging object. It includes the use of either linear friction, such as through the use of compression nuts and springs applied to the hinged pin, so as to force the hinged knuckles into contact and frictional engagement. Another concept is the use of radial friction, through the application of either a slotted spring pin, or a spiral spring pin, that locates within the knuckles of the hinge components, to add friction to their pivotal movement when opening or closing of a door, or other structure. | 06-17-2010 |

| 20090049363 | Simplified LDPC Encoding for Digital Communications - Encoder circuitry for applying a low-density parity check (LDPC) code to information words is disclosed. The encoder circuitry takes advantage of a macro matrix arrangement of the LDPC parity check matrix in which the parity portion of the parity check matrix is arranged as a macro matrix in which all block columns but one define a recursion path. The parity check matrix is factored so that the last block column of the parity portion includes an invertible cyclic matrix as its entry in a selected block row, with all other parity portion columns in that selected block row being zero-valued, thus permitting solution of the parity bits for that block column from the information portion of the parity check matrix and the information word to be encoded. Solution of the other parity bits can then be readily performed, from the original (non-factored) parity portion of the parity check matrix, following the recursion path. | 02-19-2009 |

The sequence of operations includes receiving a set of input values corresponding to input nodes of the macro parity check matrix. Estimating a check node value using values of other input nodes contributing to the parity check sum. Evaluating a probability value using the estimates of the check node values for that input node. The The operations are repeated until termination point is reached. | 03-03-2011 |
