Publication number: 20210409170Abstract: A wireless device transmits, via a first uplink bandwidth part (BWP), a first preamble for a random-access procedure. A determination is made of a second uplink BWP for transmission of a second preamble for the random-access procedure. The determination is based on not receiving, via a first downlink BWP associated with the first uplink BWP, a random-access response corresponding to the first preamble. Based on the determination of the second uplink BWP, the first downlink BWP is switched to a second downlink BWP associated with the second uplink BWP. The second preamble is transmitted via the second uplink BWP.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2021Publication date: December 30, 2021Applicant: Ofinno, LLCInventors: Ali Cagatay Cirik, Esmael Dinan, Hua Zhou, Hyoungsuk Jeon, Alireza Babaei, Kyungmin Park, Kai Xu

Publication number: 20210410332Abstract: The present document describes a passive thermal-control structure for speakers and associated apparatuses and methods. The architecture of the passive thermal-control structure is such that heat is transferred from electronic subsystems of the electronic speaker device to the passive thermal-control structure, which acts as an internal, structural frame of the electronic speaker device and provides both thermal mitigation and structural stability. The passive thermal-control structure conducts heat from the electronic subsystems to a housing of the electronic speaker device. The housing of the electronic speaker device may dissipate the heat to the ambient environment to prevent thermal runaway of the electronic subsystems, and the internal frame mitigates the temperature of the housing from exceeding ergonomic temperature limits.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2020Publication date: December 30, 2021Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Emil Rahim, Ihab A.
