Abstract: In a heterogeneous cellular communication network, a macro cell equipped with a base station may be configured to support one or more macro user equipment (UE) and one or more micro cells, each of which further serves as proxies of one or more micro UE for wireless communications between the micro UE and the macro cell. The base station may be configured to assign a first cell ID to the macro cell and other cell IDs that have a mathematical distinction from the first cell ID to the micro cells.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to conductive films and methods for forming conductive films. In some examples, a substrate may be provided having a dispersion of silica nanoparticles provided on a surface thereof. Carbon nanotubes may be adhered to the dispersion of silica nanoparticles on the surface of the substrate to provide the conductive film on the substrate.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for electrochemical capacitor devices. Some example electrochemical capacitor devices may include a composite electrode that includes an electrode substrate coupled to a polymeric electrochemical layer. The polymeric electrochemical layer may include: a conductive polymer electrically coupled to the electrode substrate; a solid state, ionically conductive electrolyte polymer; and non-conducting cross-links that covalently link the conductive polymer and the electrolyte polymer. Various example electrochemical capacitor devices may be constructed by laminating two of the composite electrodes against opposing sides of an ionically conducting separator membrane, and contacting the composite electrodes and the separator membrane with a liquid electrolyte. Some example electrochemical capacitor devices may display favorable performance such as symmetric charge storage, non-Faradic charge storage, and/or similar or greater capacity compared to carbon based systems.
