  • Patent number: 10972915
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media may be operable to wireless hotspot activity of one or more access points supporting multiple radios. A DHCP relay agent may receive a DHCP request from a device seeking to join a hotspot service provided through a gateway. If the number of currently connected devices is less than the maximum connected device limit, then the agent may increase the number of currently connected devices by one, and relay the encapsulated DHCP request over a GRE tunnel. If the number of connected devices already meets or exceeds the allowed limit, then the DHCP relay agent may instruct the gateway or its access point to disconnect the new device.

  • Patent number: 10778156
    Abstract: A circuit includes a first power transistor stage internally configured to function as a voltage-controlled current source, a second power transistor stage having an input impedance which varies as a function of input power and an interstage matching network coupling an output of the first power transistor stage to an input of the second power transistor stage. The interstage matching network is configured to provide impedance inversion between the input of the second power transistor stage and the output of the first power transistor stage. The impedance inversion provided by the interstage matching network transforms the first power transistor stage from functioning as a voltage-controlled current source to functioning as a voltage-controlled voltage source at the input of the second power transistor stage.

  • Publication number: 20200027347
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a collaborative optimization method for bus timetables based on big data, which belongs to the technical field of urban bus operation and management. Bus GPS data, IC card data and line station data are fused together to provide real-time operation data for the formulation of bus timetables, and a bus timetable optimization model considering transfer between buses and rail transit lines is proposed. In the model, by taking the departure interval of each time period as a decision variable and taking the minimum total system cost as an objective function, the waiting time cost of non-transfer passengers, the waiting time cost of transfer passengers, and the operation cost of bus operation enterprises are comprehensively considered. By means of the present invention, passenger flow data are acquired through multisource data fusion, a large number of manpower is saved, and the accuracy of data is increased.
