| 20100260255 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CLUSTERED FALLBACK FOR FRAME RATE UP-CONVERSION (FRUC) FOR DIGITAL TELEVISIONS - A video decoder may be operable to divide a video frame into clusters during frame rate up-conversion (FRUC) process. The video decoder may be operable to determine an error associated with the displayed frame difference (DFD) for each of the clusters and switch between frame interpolation and frame repetition based on the error. A DFD histogram may be computed for each cluster and a condition for clustered fallback based on one or more of the DFD histograms may be determined. The clustered fallback may be entered if the condition for clustered fallback is met. The clustered fallback may be entered locally for one or more of the clusters of the video frame. The clustered fallback may be entered in such a way that if the number of consecutive video frames which meet the condition for clustered fallback is greater than a particular threshold value. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100262816 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR POST-BUILD MODIFICATION OF FIRMWARE BINARIES TO SUPPORT DIFFERENT HARDWARE CONFIGURATIONS - A firmware data processing system may be operable to allocate a configuration area in the firmware binary image file for customizable settings. During the firmware build process for the firmware binary image file, default configuration information may be inserted into this configuration area. This default configuration information may be either actual default setting values or indicator to use the default setting values. During post-build modification process, a separately created utility application may be operable to read in the original firmware binary image file, select new settings, and insert new configuration information into the configuration area. The utility application may also be operable to create a new firmware binary image file with reproduced checksums or other error detection mechanisms required for the original firmware binary image file, based on the new configuration information in the configuration area. | 10-14-2010 |

| 20110206022 | QoS WIRELESS NETWORKING FOR HOME ENTERTAINMENT - A layer above the MAC and PHY layers of a wireless network employs a forward error correction (FEC) protocol extension with selective acknowledgement to reduce the likelihood of retries to enhance performance in, for example, home entertainment networking applications. In addition, certain system parameters of the wireless network are controlled so as to either i) align required bandwidth with particular sustainable channel parameters of the wireless network, or ii) modify the channel characteristics. One or more of three mitigation techniques might be employed with the FEC protocol extension to enhance maintenance of radio communication in the wireless network: Physical-layer Rate Adaptation, Dynamic Interference Avoidance, and Media-encoding Layer Adaptation. | 08-25-2011 |

| 20100178664 | OPTICAL MEASUREMENT METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE PH OF A MEDIUM USING AGELADINE A AS A FLUORESCENT PH INDICATOR - An optical measurement method for determining a pH of a medium includes adding a fluorescent pH indicator to the medium. The pH indicator is based on naturally-obtained or synthesized ageladine A. The pH indicator is irradiated with light of at least one wavelength so as to provide fluorescence excitation of the pH indicator. An emitted fluorescence intensity of the pH indicator is detected as a measure for the pH of the medium. | 07-15-2010 |
