  • Patent number: 11889492
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for managing radio device transmitters, beams, and receivers within a power-limited system. In one embodiment, the methods and apparatus utilize so-called “quasi-licensed” CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) wireless spectrum in conjunction with a distributed controller architecture that dynamically allocates frequency, base station, and transmit/receive beam resources for delivery of services to a number of installed fixed wireless apparatus (FWA) at user or subscriber premises. The FWA include radio path controller logic that obtains signal data via its antennae and radio head, and transmits the data to a network centralized controller that determines the resource allocation and timing (e.g., via a slotted TDD medium) for service delivery to each FWA. As such, the base stations do not determine the allocations as in the prior art, and multiple power-limited base stations can transmit signals to a single FWA to achieve greater coverage area and/or receive aggregated power.

  • Patent number: 11889658
    Abstract: Immersion cooling system for electronics. The electronics are immersed in immersion tank filled with immersion liquid. A universal supply utilizes a supply panel to fill cooled liquid into the tank. Localized supply utilizes a manifold to deliver cooled liquid to specific devices within the tank. Cooled liquid is delivered via connection of the manifold and the flexible hoses to cooling plates mounted onto the devices. Each of the cooling plates has a cavity for passing cooled liquid, a supply inlet connected to one of the flexible hoses, and an outlet hole releasing the liquid into the tank. The cooled liquid is supplied to the universal supply from a main cooler. The cooled liquid is supplied to the manifold from the main cooler or from a secondary cooler. The immersion tank has a single recirculation outlet to return liquid mixed from both the universal supply and the localized supply.
