A method includes gathering a plurality of instances of online activity associated with a user, analyzing the plurality of instances of online activity to determine a characteristic that is likely to correspond to a profile attribute of the user and generating a profile enrichment suggestion for the user based on the determined characteristic.

A method includes receiving a signal, which carries data that is encoded with an Error Correction Code (ECC), and correcting the received signal with an adaptive receiver loop. Soft input metrics for the data are computed over the corrected signal. The ECC is decoded using a decoder, which estimates soft output metrics based on the soft input metrics, by operating the decoder in an alternating pattern of external iterations that update one or more of the soft input metrics based on one or more of the soft output metrics, and internal iterations that update the soft output metrics but not the soft input metrics. The adaptive receiver loop is adjusted in a schedule that is defined relative to the pattern of the external and the internal iterations of the decoder.

Iterative receiver loop

A method includes accepting modulated symbols, which carry bits of a code word of a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code, and computing respective soft input metrics for the bits. The code word is decoded using an iterative LDPC decoding process that includes selecting, based on a predefined criterion, a number of internal iterations to be performed by an LDPC decoder () in the process, performing the selected number of the internal iterations using the LDPC decoder so as to estimate decoded bits and soft output metrics indicative of the input bits based on the soft input metrics, performing an external iteration that updates one or more of the soft input metrics based on one or more of the soft output metrics produced by the LDPC decoder, and repeating at least one of the internal iterations using the updated soft input metrics.

An automated system for signing up users invited to join a site based on their existing identity includes an invitation generator, an invite processor, a federated authentication module, a user information retrieval module, an account population and creation module, and a user interface module. The automated sign up module is responsive to an invite request. The automated sign up module sends an authorization request, receives the authorization response, verifies the response and retrieves user data. The automated sign up module uses the retrieved data to populate a sign up form and initialize an account. The automated sign up module sends new account information to a user for confirmation. Once confirmation has been received, the automated sign up module creates the new account and allows the user to access the system. The present disclosure includes a method for signing up users invited to join a site based on their existing identity.

A method includes receiving a signal, which carries data in a sequence of symbols that are modulated in accordance with a pulse shape and transmitted in accordance with a timing clock. The received signal is filtered with a matched filter whose response is matched to the pulse shape of the symbols, to produce a filtered signal. The timing clock is initially recovered from the received signal prior to filtering with the matched filter. Upon meeting a predefined condition, a switch is made to recover the timing clock from the filtered signal after filtering with the matched filter. The symbols are demodulated using the recovered timing clock, so as to reconstruct the data.

Timing recovery for low roll-off factor signals

A novel and useful baseline wander correction mechanism for use with transformer coupled baseband communication receivers. Parametric estimation of the transformer model is used estimate and cancel the baseline wander effect. A parametric model is used to model the baseline wander impairment created by the transmitter and receiver transformers as a high pass filter having an exponential decay parameter alpha. A correction signal for both the far end and echo signal paths are calculated and summed to generate a total correction signal. The total correction signal is partitioned into an analog correction signal that is applied to the analog portion of the communications receiver and into a digital correction signal that is similarly applied to the analog portion of the communications receiver.

A method and apparatus provide phase, frequency and gain characterization and mitigation in a synchronized code division multiple access (SCDMA) burst receiver via use of dedicated phase and frequency correction loops that implemented to deal with the unique characteristics of a SCDMA signal. The way coded and un-coded bits are interleaved within a given frame requires that all symbols related to that frame be captured in a dedicated storage medium such as a RAM prior to the beginning of the data processing. The method and apparatus substantially eliminate gain, phase, and frequency, among other impairments caused by the transmitter, channel and analog parts of the SCDMA burst receiver.
