  • Patent number: 10902101
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique that can selectively display secure content on a computing device. The technique can detect both lock and unlock events and issue appropriate control signals that cause an application to display a more secure version of the application when necessary based on a particular UI context file. The UI context file can specify a configuration that includes pre-configured hidden or removed UI elements that do not need to be adjusted at runtime. Moreover, the technique can seamlessly pivot to a different UI context file that specifies a configuration of the application that allows the user to experience the full-capabilities of the application when the computing device is in an unlocked-mode.

  • Patent number: 10527717
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices of the present invention use a single Pseudo Noise (PN) code to modulate multiple orthogonal carriers by Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) modulation. The various embodiments enable closely spaced carriers to be modulated with the same periodic PN sequence using BPSK modulation. In this manner, even though the carriers may almost entirely share bandwidth, orthogonality of the carriers may not be lost, enabling the various embodiments to be used with limited bandwidth Intensity Modulated Continuous Wave (IM-CW) Light detection and ranging (Lidar), Radio detection and ranging (Radar), or Sound Navigation and Ranging (Sonar) systems. Additionally, by using orthogonal carriers the various embodiments enable measurements to be made simultaneously, thereby reducing the error compared to systems that require sequential measurements, such as pulsed Lidar systems.

  • Patent number: 10382996
    Abstract: A mobile communication system including a base station, a WLAN AP, and a mobile communication device is provided. The base station transmits a first measurement configuration including a first threshold value and a second threshold value which is less than the first threshold value. The WLAN AP is configured with a serving AP ID and a neighboring AP ID. The mobile communication device connects to the WLAN AP with the serving AP ID, measures a first signal strength of the WLAN AP with the serving AP ID according to the first measurement configuration, measures a second signal strength of the WLAN AP with the neighboring AP ID according to the first measurement configuration, and transmits a first measurement report to the base station when the first signal strength is less than the first threshold value and the second signal strength is greater than the second threshold value.

  • Patent number: 10254405
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices may enhance the apparent sample rate of data collected using Nyquist sampling from a system, such as Continuous Wave (CW) Light detection and ranging (“Lidar”), Radio detection and ranging (“Radar”), or Sound Navigation and Ranging (“Sonar”), that has been modulated with a repeating waveform, such as linear swept frequency, by reordering of the data in the frequency domain. The enhancement of the apparent sample rate may result in a highly interpolated range profile where the data resolution may be enhanced by a factor equal to the number of repeats in the signal being processed, and may result in a highly detained range measurement with a high precision. The various embodiments may combine data from multiple modulation repeats into a single highly interpolated pulse, which may result in a real-time finer range measurement from CW Lidar, Radar, or Sonar systems.

    Abstract: The present invention provides an antenna structure, using a metal radiation plate having at least one bending slot and a metal grounding plate, where a starting end of the metal radiation plate is located on an edge of the metal radiation plate. A feed plate and a connecting grounding plate are separately connected to two sides of a starting end of the slot, and two ends of the connecting grounding plate may be separately connected to the metal radiation plate and the metal grounding plate. The feed plate may be connected to a core wire of a coaxial cable, and a peripheral conductor of the coaxial cable is connected to the metal grounding plate, so that different resonant modes can be controlled. The antenna can achieve a broadband effect, thereby solving the problem of the metal shielding effect in a wireless communication product using a full-metal back cover.
