Abstract: Various embodiments describe performing a transient simulation of circuits that have mutual inductors. In particular, some embodiments perform a transient simulation on a circuit model by removing and approximating the effects of one or more entries of a matrix in the circuit model, where the matrix relates to inductors or mutual inductors of the circuit. In doing so, such embodiments can render the matrix more sparse than before which, in turn, can reduce the time spent during the transient simulation to solve equations of the circuit model.

Abstract: Techniques for efficiently assigning resources for spurts of traffic in a wireless communication system are described. The system may support semi-persistent and non-persistent resource assignments. A semi-persistent resource assignment is valid for as long as more data is sent within a predetermined time period of last sent data and expires if no data is sent within the predetermined time period. A non-persistent resource assignment is valid for a predetermined duration or a specific transmission. A semi-persistent resource assignment may be granted for an expected spurt of data to send via the communication link. For Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP), a semi-persistent resource assignment may be granted for a voice frame in anticipation of a spurt of voice activity, and a non-persistent resource assignment may be granted for a silence descriptor (SID) frame during a period of silence.
