  • Publication number: 20240164451
    Abstract: This application provides a vaporizer, an electronic vaporization device, and a seal element for a vaporizer. The vaporizer includes: a liquid storage cavity; a vaporization assembly, configured to vaporize a liquid substrate to generate an aerosol; a liquid channel, configured to provide a flowing path for the liquid substrate in the liquid storage cavity to flow to the vaporization assembly; and a seal element, including a blocking portion configured to seal the liquid channel and at least one weak region. The at least one weak region is constructed to be ruptured or broken, thereby releasing the seal of the liquid channel. Before use of the vaporizer, the liquid channel is sealed by the seal element to prevent the liquid substrate from being provided to the vaporization assembly; and in use, the liquid channel is unblocked by rupturing or breaking the weak region of the seal element.

  • Publication number: 20240163898
    Abstract: A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) and related apparatus are provided. In the method, the UE receives downlink control information (DCI) indicating for the UE to skip physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring or to extend a connected discontinuous reception (CDRX) active time. The DCI includes one or more of a skip indication, scheduling for a retransmission of a successfully decoded physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), a non-zero downlink assignment with a downlink retransmission transport block (TB) size that is different than an initial downlink transmission TB size, or a non-zero uplink assignment with an uplink retransmission TB size that is different than an initial uplink transmission TB size. The UE further skips transmission of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for the DCI.

  • Publication number: 20240089968
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support enhanced scheduling request configurations. A user equipment (UE) may obtain, at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of the UE, information associated with a data packet for transmission by the UE. The UE may transmit a scheduling request that indicates information regarding an elapsed time period since the information associated with the data packet was obtained at the PDCP layer of the UE, or whether the data packet is a final packet of a set of data packets, or both. A network entity may receive the scheduling request and determine scheduling information for uplink communications by the UE based on the information regarding the elapsed time period, or whether the data packet is the final data packet, or both. The network entity may transmit the scheduling information to the UE.

  • Patent number: 11930451
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, control signaling indicating a set of connected discontinuous reception (C-DRX) configurations. The set of C-DRX configurations may include a first C-DRX configuration and a second C-DRX configuration, where at least one C-DRX configuration in the set of C-DRX configurations is a UE-group common C-DRX configuration. The set of C-DRX configurations may correspond to a discontinuous transmission (DTX) cycle of the base station. The UE may select a C-DRX configuration from the set of C-DRX configurations based on receiving the control signaling from the base station. Accordingly, the UE may use the selected C-DRX configuration to communicate with the base station. The selected C-DRX configuration may enable the base station to operate with reduced power consumption and higher DTX efficiency, among other benefits.
