Warning units provide drivers with advance notification of roadway hazards in order to ameliorate these conditions. Incorporating a transmitter with the receiver in the motorist's vehicles enables IVSAWS units to summon assistance with a distress broadcast. Program aspects include hazard scenario identification, system architecture design, driver interface design, communication system design, and proof-of-concept field testing.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":114705,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] Vehicular Technology Society 42nd VTS Conference - Frontiers of Technology","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115116165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This rate has made it possible to conceive of new mobile services, the most ambitious of which is perhaps video. Although data rates of 64 kb/s are thought of as very high in the mobile environment, this is a very low rate for video. Many techniques for implementing video at rates between 64 and 128 kb/s have focused on teleconferencing or videophone over a high-quality channel. The results of the investigation into how to adapt the p*64 video coding standard so that it will be suitable for the coding of QCIF formal (176*144) video sequences for mobile transmission are presented. It is concluded that the codec design presented should be robust enough to allow reasonable quality video transmission over a mobile channel operating at 64 kb/s.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":114705,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] Vehicular Technology Society 42nd VTS Conference - Frontiers of Technology","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115139989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The speech codec is a 4 kb/s variation of the proposed Federal Standard 1016 CELP. The major difference is the use of a trained codebook (as opposed to a stochastic codebook in the proposed standard). The channel codec on the other hand, consists of a bank of rate-compatible punctured Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. The two subsystems are combined in an optimal fashion, according to the sensitivity of the speech elements. This implies that the most sensitive bits are protected by the most powerful RS codes, while the least sensitive bits are (either uncoded or) protected by the least powerful code. The performance of such a combined codec under different sets of system parameters and channel conditions is studied. In all cases, though, the aggregate rate is fixed at about 6.4 kb/s. The simulation results show that under the condition that there is no interleaving delay, the resulting codec can provide good quality speech at a channel bit error rate as high as 10/sup -2/.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":114705,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] Vehicular Technology Society 42nd VTS Conference - Frontiers of Technology","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122556649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The motion-compensated 55 kb/s subband codec using seven nonuniformly spaced active bands with bandspecific scanning and runlength coding achieves image peak signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) of around 38 dB, associated with good communications quality for monochrome common intermediate format images sampled at 10 frames per second. The motion dependent bitrate fluctuations are smoothed out by buffering with adaptive quantizer control feedback. The video bits are then sorted into two sensitivity classes and error protected by a twin-class binary BCH scheme. The separately BCH-encoded more significant bits (MSB) and less significant bits (LSB) are transmitted via separate subchannels of the 16-level quadrature amplitude modulator (16-QAM), having different integrity. The overall signaling rate becomes 22 kBd. No equalizer has to be used yet unimpaired image quality is achieved for channel SNR in excess of 20 dB.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":114705,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] Vehicular Technology Society 42nd VTS Conference - Frontiers of Technology","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123940343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A decision feedback equalizer (DFE) with a recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm is used as the equalization scheme. The results show that adaptive equalization can significantly improve the bit-error-rate (BER) of a mobile system if the channel does not change too rapidly. The simulation shows that in a two-ray Rayleigh fading channel, if the delay of the second ray is too small, then adaptive equalization will degrade the BER performance. The value of the delay at which the adaptive equalizer can improve the BER depends on the normalized Doppler frequency. A mobile channel simulator is used to show how much the equalizer can improve the BER in real-world urban channels. The performance of adaptive equalization for indoor high-data-rate systems is evaluated. An equalization structure for pi /4 DQPSK modulation is developed, and simulation results are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":114705,"journal":{"name":"[1992 Proceedings] Vehicular Technology Society 42nd VTS Conference - Frontiers of Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129555637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
