Adaptive method for reducing power consumption in a standby mode of a digital radio communication system

A device for controlling brightness of a radio terminal. In the brightness control device, a photometer measures brightness of an incident light to generate an electric signal depending on the brightness. A light emitting device emits a light, and a power supply provides a power supply voltage to the light emitting device in response to a control signal. A controller measures brightness while the light emitting device is turned on/off, using the photometer, and generates the control signal for enabling the power supply to provide the power supply voltage to the light emitting device according to a brightness difference during light-on and light-off of the light emitting device. The controller comprises a switch for switching a signal output from let the photometer to either a first input node or a second input node of a comparator; the comparator for generating a signal corresponding to a difference between the signals received at the first and second input nodes thereof; and a pulse density modulation (PDM) signal generator for generating a PDM signal for the signal output from the comparator as the control signal.

Device and method for controlling brightness of radio terminal

A circuit for eliminating a ghost noise of an image processing system in transmitting an image signal, wherein an image data and a noise are separated from each other visually and the ghost noise added during transmitting is changed to a white noise so as to reduce an extent of deterioration of a picture quality because a pattern of a data scrambled at each frame is changed by an initial value being different at each frame.
