Dithering mechanism and method for eliminating the effects of zero-rate bias in a rate sensor or gyroscope. A spherical lattice codebook is constructed by determining the channel statistics of one or more channels, which can be accomplished by observing a sufficiently large set of channel realizations. The LED lamp further includes an LED assembly disposed at an end of the protruding appendage and in thermal communication with the base. The network settings password is required prior to permitting access to system settings included within the client. Another method includes recording, by a server, for each message that is received by the server from the wireless network, a network pathway by which the message has been sent, the network pathway identifying the nodes and the communications links therebetween by which the message has been sent. The reduction in leakage current of the OTP-EPROM can be achieved by blocking implantation of the Vtp implant into a channel region of an n-well that substantially underlies a floating gate structure.
