  • Patent number: 11912745
    Abstract: Proteins, nucleic acids encoding the proteins, compositions comprising the proteins, and methods are provided. The proteins have the ability to be self-targeted to ICAM-1 and, if desired, enzymatically-released at acidic pH. The ICAM-1-targeting peptides are provided as single copies or multiples repeats, and can be separated by linkers from the enzyme segment, from which the ICAM-1 targeting peptides can be released, if desired, at acidic pH. These fusion proteins enhance the activity of the enzyme segment within or liberated from the fusion protein, and provide increased recognition and targeting of diseased organs, transport from the bloodstream across the endothelium into said diseased organ, and intracellular uptake and lysosomal trafficking by cells in them, both in peripheral tissues and the central nervous system. Representative nucleotide and amino acid sequences of these fusion proteins, as well as in vitro, cellular, and in vivo animal data are provided.

  • Patent number: 11916593
    Abstract: A free space optical (FSO) communication node communicates via an FSO link with a remote FSO communication node that moves relative to the FSO node. The FSO node may be highly directional, and transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) beams of the FSO node may share optical paths (at least in part). Instead of directing a Tx beam along a point ahead angle relative to a Rx beam (which may result in undesirable Rx coupling losses), the Tx beam is directed based on the point ahead angle and a point ahead offset angle. The point ahead offset angle modifies the point ahead angle to reduce Rx coupling losses while keeping Tx pointing losses at least low enough to maintain the FSO link. In some cases, due to the point ahead offset angle, the Tx direction minimizes a sum of the Rx coupling losses and the Tx pointing losses.

  • Patent number: 11895690
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, information that identifies an association between a first cell of a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second cell of a second RAT. The UE may perform a measurement for the first cell. The UE may determine that the measurement for the first cell satisfies a threshold value. The UE may perform an interference canceling operation for a reference signal of the second cell, or a de-weighting operation for one or more resource elements in which the reference signal interferes, based at least in part on the determination that the measurement for the first cell satisfies the threshold value and the association between the first cell and the second cell.

  • Patent number: 11888534
    Abstract: Power sourcing equipment of a power-over-fiber system includes a first laser, a second laser, and a light input/output part. The first laser oscillates with electric power to output feed light. The second laser oscillates with electric power to output feed light. The light input/output part inputs first feed light output by the first laser and second feed light output by the second laser to a single channel of an optical fiber. A light intensity distribution of the first feed light at an output end face of the channel differs from a light intensity distribution of the second feed light at the output end face of the channel. The first feed light and the second feed light are simultaneously input to the channel to reduce non-uniformity of a light intensity distribution at the output end face. Further, incident angles ?1 and ?2 are different from each other to reduce the non-uniformity of the light intensity distribution at the output end face.
