Abstract: A method, mobile device (101) and radio access network RAN (102) are disclosed for suspending and re-establishing a radio resource control (RRC) connection. In some examples, the mobile device (101) indicates a preference to have the RRC connection either suspended or released. In other examples, RAN (102) sends to the mobile device (101) a connection suspend command message instructing the mobile device to suspend a RRC connection with the RAN (102). The mobile device (101), in response to the connection suspend command message, suspends the RRC connection. When the RRC connection is suspended the mobile device (101) cannot transmit or receive user plane data to the RAN (102) and performs functions the same as or similar to idle mode functions. On suspension, RRC connection information is stored and can be used to re-establish the suspended RRC connection.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to 3D printer inputs including filaments comprising separated layers or sections. These inputs particularly including filaments may be prepared by coextrusion, microlayer coextrusion or multicomponent/fractal coextrusion. These inputs and specifically filaments enable layering or combining different materials simultaneously through one or more nozzles during the so-called 3D printing process. These techniques facilitate smaller layer sizes (milli, micro, and nano) different layer configurations as well as the potential to incorporate materials that would otherwise not be usable in standard 3D printer methods.

Abstract: A system and method are presented in which a flow of plastic is extruded to obtain nano-sized features by forming multiple laminated flow streams, flowing in parallel through the non-rotating extrusion system. Each of the parallel laminated flow streams are subjected to repeated steps in which the flows are compressed, divided, and overlapped to amplify the number of laminations. The parallel amplified laminated flows are rejoined to form a combined laminated output with nano-sized features. The die exit is formed to provide a tubular shape.

Abstract: Disclosed is silicon on insulator (SOI) radio frequency (RF) module with noise reduction shielding to mitigate radio frequency interference (RFI) between active circuit devices within the module. The RF module includes various semiconductor active devices disposed upon an insulating substrate. The RF module can be a front-end module (FEM) with one or more charge pumps as active devices. A polysilicon web extends between and underneath the devices to create a network of ground paths across a surface of the insulating substrate. The ground paths effectively conduct RF noise to a circuit ground, causing the polysilicon ground web to eliminate or substantially attenuate RFI produced by the active devices without altering signal characteristics of the RF module. The disclosed solution also reduces RF noise leakage into the substrate, and can reduce RFI between neighboring RF modules.
