An integrated memory controller (IMC) including MemoryF / X Technology which includes data compression and decompression engines for improved performance. The memory controller (IMC) of the present invention preferably selectively uses a combination of lossless, lossy, and no compression modes. Data transfers to and from the integrated memory controller of the present invention can thus be in a plurality of formats, these being compressed or normal (non-compressed), compressed lossy or lossless, or compressed with a combination of lossy and lossless. The invention also indicates preferred methods for specific compression and decompression of particular data formats such as digital video, 3D textures and image data using a combination of novel lossy and lossless compression algorithms in block or span addressable formats. To improve latency and reduce performance degradations normally associated with compression and decompression techniques, the MemoryF / X Technology encompasses multiple novel techniques such as: 1) parallel lossless compression / decompression; 2) selectable compression modes such as lossless, lossy or no compression; 3) priority compression mode; 4) data cache techniques; 5) variable compression block sizes; 6) compression reordering; and 7) unique address translation, attribute, and address caches. The parallel compression and decompression algorithm allows high-speed parallel compression and high speed parallel decompression operation. The IMC also preferably uses a special memory allocation and directory technique for reduction of table size and low latency operation. The integrated data compression and decompression capabilities of the IMC remove system bottle-necks and increase performance. This allows lower cost systems due to smaller data storage, reduced bandwidth requirements, reduced power and noise.

Multiple coil systems and methods are disclosed in which transmitter and receiver inductors, or coils, are coupled in a configuration for wirelessly transferring data and / or power among them. In preferred implementations, the systems and methods are used for transmitting data using pairs of coupled coils. One preferred aspect of the invention is that the coils are not permanently affixed in physical proximity to one another, but can be moved and / or interchanged.

Pipelined analog to digital conversion systems are provided having cascaded multi-bit successive approximation register subconverter stages. Capacitor arrays are provided in the subconverter stages, where switching logic selectively couples the capacitors to operate in sample, conversion, and residue amplification modes for generating multi-bit subconverter digital outputs and analog subconverter residue outputs. In one implementation, the capacitors are switched according to a thermometer code to reduce differential converter non-linearity, and the first subconverter stage gain is reduced to improve the conversion system bandwidth.

The present invention provides a system and method for aggregating and estimating the bandwidth of the multiple network interfaces. Particularly, the invention provides a cross layer system for bandwidth aggregation based on dynamic analysis of network conditions. Further, the invention provides a system and method of estimation for evaluating bandwidth of multiple physical interfaces.

A method determines an optimum bandwidth that minimizes ranging error in a geolocation application. The method ensures that an optimum bandwidth is selected under all channel conditions (i.e., both line-of-sight (LOS) and non-LOS (NLOS) conditions). Additionally, the method is generic and system-independent, such that it is applicable to both coherent receivers (e.g., match filter (MF) based receivers), non-coherent receivers (e.g., energy detector (ED) based receivers) and any types of time-of-arrival (TOA) estimators (e.g., whether peak-detection or threshold-based TOA estimator), regardless of the signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) under consideration.

The invention designs a novel micromechanical gyroscope with a double-sensitive mode, which is mainly used for improving the gains of a micromechanical gyroscope so as to improve the sensitivity. The micromechanical gyroscope structure designed by the invention applies complete two-degree-of-freedom vibration structures to a driving mode and a sensitive mode; a double-sensitive mode structure is adopted, namely the sensitive mode has the two complete two-degree-of-freedom vibration structures which are connected with a driving framework and a decoupling framework of the driving mode through detection mass blocks respectively so as to realize the decoupling of the double-sensitive mode and the driving mode. The complete two-degree-of-freedom vibration structures can be used for increasing 3dB bandwidths of the driving mode and the sensitive mode, so that the stability of a gyroscope system is improved; the double-sensitive mode can improve the whole output gains and the sensitivity of the gyroscope system. The novel micromechanical gyroscope provided by the invention has the advantages of good stability, interference resistance and high sensitivity; vacuum encapsulation is avoided; the novel micromechanical gyroscope is good for extensive practical application.
