Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for controlling transmit power of user equipment. The method includes: when total uplink transmit power of user equipment UE exceeds maximum allowed transmit power, calculating a first gain factor according to the maximum allowed transmit power; performing quantization processing on the first gain factor according to a gain factor of a first physical channel, to obtain a second gain factor, where the first physical channel includes a DPCCH2; reducing a gain factor of a second physical channel to the second gain factor, to reduce transmit power of the second physical channel, so that the total uplink transmit power of the UE does not exceed the maximum allowed transmit power, where the second physical channel includes an HS-DPCCH. This reduces a calculation error and improves control accuracy of transmit power.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for transparently processing a fax transmission by a fax software program in a mobile device. In one embodiment, the fax software program identifies an incoming call at the mobile device. Upon the identification, the program prevents a display screen of the mobile device from outputting an incoming call ringing alert. The program answers the incoming call and analyzes the call to detect whether the answered call is a voice call. Upon detecting that the answered incoming call is a voice call, the program outputs the incoming call ringing alert via the display screen. Otherwise, if the answered incoming call is a fax transmission, the program merges the call with a fax server, such that the fax server receives the fax transmission. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: A method can be used for detecting a potential presence of an object by a reader capable of mutually communicating via a contactless communications protocol. An antenna of the reader transmits a magnetic field on a carrier signal having a sub-carrier modulated by a first data sequence. The modulated sub-carrier is non-interpretable by the object. The antenna of the reader receives a signal resulting from the transmission. The reader demodulates the sub-carrier of the resulting signal so as to extract a second data sequence from the resulting signal. The first data sequence and second data sequence are correlated and the potential presence or absence of the object is determined based upon the result of the correlating.
