Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives a signal at the UE. The received signal includes a transmission from a serving cell and at least a first interfering transmission. The UE determines a constrained transmission rate associated with the first interfering transmission and cancels the first interfering transmission from the received signal based on the constrained transmission rate. In another aspect, a wireless communication apparatus determines a constrained transmission rate for a transmission on one or more reduced-rate resources. The wireless communication apparatus signaling the constrained transmission rate to a user equipment (UE).

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for rendering an object by using a mipmap including N+1 textures having resolutions that are reduced from level 0 to level N are provided. The object may be rendered by obtaining a coordinate of a pixel to be rendered, obtaining an index value related to the obtained coordinate, determining availability of a cached texel with respect to a texel related to the obtained coordinate among texels in a texture of a level identified by the index value, and if the cached texel is available, rendering the pixel by using the cached texel. A method and an apparatus for generating a plurality of index values with respect to a mipmap including N+1 textures having resolutions that are reduced from level 0 to level N are also provided.

Abstract: A base station is configured to communicate with at least a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, wherein the base station is configured to communicate with the first UE using a first modulation scheme, and with the second UE using a second, different, modulation scheme, wherein communications with the first and second UEs are arranged to be substantially orthogonal to each other. A method of allocating resources in a communication network comprising a base station operable to communicate with a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, the method comprising using a first modulation scheme for communication with the first UE, and using a second, different, modulation scheme for communication with the second UE, wherein communications with the first and second UEs are configured to be substantially orthogonal to each other.

Abstract: An input device is disclosed that can improve input detection associated with sensor elements that exhibit a weaker response at the lower end of their dynamic range than their counterparts. This can be advantageous when implementing input reporting rules that rely on a sufficient response at the lower end of a sensor element's dynamic range. The input device can compensate for a weak sensor element at the low end of its dynamic range by increasing its sensitivity in certain situations, such as when an adjacent sensor provides a strong input signal, or after the weak sensor element provides a signal level exceeding a noise threshold for example. The sensitivity of the weak sensor element can be increased in a variety of ways, such as by reducing a noise threshold associated with the sensor element or boosting a signal level associated with the sensor element for example.

Abstract: A method is provided for electronically masking the geographic location of a client device in a communication network comprising the following steps: (a) mapping a communication from a first diverter node at a first location to a second diverter node at a second location, and (b) causing the communication to appear as originating from a client device at the second location when the communication is received by a destination device, wherein the second location is different from the first location. Also provided is a device that may be used to implement such a method.
