  • Publication number: 20240061481
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: a controller that outputs notification information based on input information; and a processor that executes system processing based on an operating system (OS) and operation of thermal control processing by control of a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) using the notification information output from the controller. The controller accepts an operation signal indicative of an operated key according to a user's operation on a keyboard; determines whether the operated key is of a specific combination of keys based on the accepted operation signal; upon making a determination that the operated key is of the specific combination of keys, outputs, to the processor, a result of the determination as the notification information; and without another key being pressed after the result of the determination is output from the controller, the processor executes the thermal control processing based on the result of the determination.

  • Patent number: 11909488
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for SCell Beam Failure recovery. One apparatus includes a transceiver that communicates with a SCell in a wireless communication network. The apparatus includes a processor that receives a SR configuration from a wireless communication network, the SR configuration comprising a set of PUCCH resources, where the SR configuration corresponds to one or more logical channels. The processor detects that beam failure procedure has been triggered for the SCell. The processor triggers a scheduling request for SCell beam failure recovery in response to determining that there are no UL-SCH resources available for a new transmission for the transmission of a beam failure MAC CE. The processor transmits SR on the PUCCH resources of the SR configuration in response to triggering the scheduling request for SCell beam failure recovery.
