  • Patent number: 10560929
    Abstract: A resource request method and system, a device, and a network side node are provided. The method includes the following steps: A target device sends a first target device message to a relay device. When receiving the first target device message, the relay device sends a first relay device message to a network side node according to the first target device message. The network side node receives the first relay device message, and sends first grant information to the target device according to the first relay device message. The first grant information includes a data transmission resource allocated by the network side node to the target device. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, energy consumption of a sending device, that is, a target device, can be reduced while the sending device obtains a transmission resource.

  • Publication number: 20200033189
    Abstract: An optical signal analyzing apparatus enables real-time and single-shot analysis simultaneously in both time and frequency domains with spectro-temporal analysis. The apparatus includes a fiber tap coupler for receiving an input optical signal from continuous wave (CW) to ultra-short pulses (femtosecond-picosecond). An optical splitter directs part of the signal to a frequency channel and part to a time channel A photodiode in the time channel directly monitors the intensity evolution and converts it to an electrical signal. In the frequency channel, two sub-channels are provided: one for CW/quasi-CW and one for short-pulse components. A signal processor analyses the time- and frequency-domain data from the time channel and frequency channel and displays the temporal and spectral evolutions simultaneously, so that the two different pieces of information of a non-repeated dynamic event can be correlated in different domains.

  • Publication number: 20200035155
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for controlling a drive current of a display panel, an electronic device, and a storage medium. A standard drive current of the display panel is calculated based on the power function of the display panel. An actual drive current is detected in a working process of the display panel, and it is determined whether the actual drive current exceeds the standard by comparing the actual drive current with the standard drive current. The actual drive current is regulated if the actual drive current exceeds the standard.

  • Patent number: 10474297
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes projecting a structured light pattern projected onto a surface and detecting and responding to interactions with the same. The techniques described here can, in some cases, facilitate recognizing that an object such as a user's hand is adjacent the plane of a projection surface and can distinguish the object from the projection surface itself. Movement of the object then can be interpreted, for example, as a specified type of gesture that can trigger a specified type of operation to occur.
