  • Publication number: 20210344781
    Abstract: This application provides a data transmission method and a apparatus. The method includes: when determining that a first data stream satisfies a transmission optimization enabling condition, a first transmitting end TE1 sends a transmission optimization enabling notification to a first receiving end RE1, where the transmission optimization enabling notification is used to indicate the RE1 to skip sending, to the TE1, an acknowledgment packet used to acknowledge that a data packet of the first data stream is already received by the RE2. The TE1 receives a data packet Data2 in a second protocol format from the TE2. The TE1 sends a data packet Data1 in a first protocol format to the RE1. The TE1 receives an acknowledgment frame Ack1 in the first protocol format from the RE1. The TE1 constructs an acknowledgment packet Ack2 in the second protocol format based on the Ack1, and sends it to the TE2.

  • Patent number: 11156829
    Abstract: A near-eye display (NED) using a pupil expander to expand an eyebox of the NED may suffer from local variations of throughput and color reproduction introduced by the pupil expander of the display. To offset or compensate these variations, the pupil expander, e.g. a pupil-replicating waveguide, may be characterized at a plurality of non-uniformly spaced grid of test points, with the test points disposed more densely at areas of high spatial variation of the throughput or color shift introduced by the pupil expander. The throughput or color shift may be integrated over at least a portion of the field of view of the NED. To determine the areas of high spatial variation, an initial test may be performed at uniformly spaced test grid locations.

  • Publication number: 20210305051
    Abstract: A metal wiring method for reducing gate resistance of a narrow control gate structure, wherein the gate structure is etched with first gate electrodes and second gate electrodes at regular intervals and kept with complete gate electrodes at regular intervals, thereby constituting a structure in which the first and second gate electrodes and the complete gate electrodes are spaced apart. A first contact hole is etched on the complete gate electrode to draw out metal as a first metal layer. A second contact hole is etched on a source region and a split gate to draw out metal as a second metal layer. These two metal layers are separated by a dielectric layer. A multi-point contact of the first layer of metal with the gate electrode in a Y direction reduces the gate resistance caused by an excessively long path in the Y direction of a control gate electrode.
