Publication number: 20260138739Abstract: A high-speed vertical take-off and landing (HSVTOL) aircraft includes an airframe, a pair of inner wings coupled to and extending from the airframe, and a pair of wing rotors pivotably coupled to the pair of inner wings, wherein each of the pair of wing rotor has a rotatable configuration in which the wing rotor is freely rotatable entirely about a rotational axis of the wing rotor to generate vertically directed thrust that is applied to the airframe in a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) mode of the HSVTOL aircraft, and a fixed configuration in which the wing rotor is locked into a defined angular orientation about the rotational axis in a forward cruise mode of the HSVTOL aircraft.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2025Publication date: May 21, 2026Applicants: The Texas A&M University System, Oklahoma State UniversityInventors: Moble Benedict, David Allen Coleman, Atanu Halder

Patent number: 10904744Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may signal, to a base station, an indication that fast sleep is supported by the UE with regard to an inter-slot scheduling configuration or a non-self-contained slot configuration; and receive, based at least in part on signaling the indication that the fast sleep is supported by the UE, signaling indicating the inter-slot scheduling configuration or the non-self-contained slot configuration for the fast sleep, wherein the fast sleep is between at least one of a data grant and a corresponding data communication for the inter-slot scheduling, or a data communication and acknowledgment (ACK)/negative ACK (NACK) feedback regarding the data communication for the non-self-contained slot configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Ming Yang, Kausik Ray Chaudhuri, Juan Montojo, Sameh Guirguis, Atanu Halder

Patent number: 10743203Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus relating to minimizing interference by controlling beam width of a wireless device. In certain aspects, a method of minimizing interference by controlling beam width of a wireless device, such as a user equipment (UE), includes configuring antenna elements of the UE to communicate in a serving cell using a first beam, monitoring a channel quality metric in the serving cell, and re-configuring the antenna elements of the UE to perform mobility measurements of one or more neighboring cells using a second beam broader than the first beam if the metric falls below a threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Sameh Guirguis, Kausik Ray Chaudhuri, Ming Yang, Atanu Halder

Patent number: 10356636Abstract: A method, an apparatus, a base station, user equipment, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. In some aspects, the apparatus may identify a user equipment as a drone-mounted user equipment, and/or may configure one or more parameters associated with the user equipment based at least in part on identifying the user equipment as a drone-mounted user equipment. In some aspects, the apparatus may determine, for a user equipment mounted on a drone, that a threshold is satisfied with regard to an uplink throughput, a downlink throughput, a signal strength, or a signal quality associated with the user equipment, and/or may configure a transmission power parameter or a measurement reporting parameter based at least in part on determining that the threshold is satisfied.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2017Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Sameh Guirguis, Kausik Ray Chaudhuri, Atanu Halder
