Abstract: Examples of performing selective Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) are described. For an FTM scan cycle, a first AP (i.e., an initiator) may determine scanning parameter values of a plurality of second APs (i.e., potential responders) based on previously performed FTM scans. The first AP may determine weights of the plurality of second APs based on the scanning parameter values and select a set of target APs based on the weights. The first AP may then scan the set of target APs for the FTM scan so that the rest of the plurality of second APs are relieved from participating in the FTM scan thereby reducing the performance impact on the rest of the plurality of second APs. After the FTM scan cycle is completed, the first AP may update the weights and select another set of target APs based on the updated weights to perform another FTM scan cycle.

Abstract: Operation of a wireless network access point (AP) to communicate with a first set of one or more wireless client devices using a wireless protocol in which spatial reuse of channels is supported via at least a dynamically configurable basic service set (BSS) identifier of the wireless AP. The BSS identifier is utilized to identify overlapping BSSs (OBSSs). A first set of one or more wireless client devices communicate using a wireless protocol in which spatial reuse of channels is supported via at least a dynamically configurable BSS identifier of the wireless AP. The BSS identifier is utilized to identify OBSSs. Unauthorized network activity is detected based on the BSS identifier and a received BSS identifier associated with the received transmissions. A dynamic adjustment is made to one of the BSS identifiers of the AP or the received BSS identifier in response to detected unauthorized network activity.

Abstract: A method for replacing a filter in a dust collector includes: accessing a filter carriage, at least one filter being connected to the filter carriage and being disposed inside a dust collector housing of the dust collector; lowering the filter carriage, the at least one filter being lowered with the filter carriage; translating the filter carriage out of the dust collector housing with the at least one filter; removing the at least one filter from the filter carriage; placing at least one other filter on the filter carriage; translating the filter carriage into the dust collector housing with the at least one other filter; and raising the filter carriage to lock the at least one other filter into an operational location.

Abstract: A removable filter system and a dust collector with the removable filter system. The dust collector includes a filter carriage movably connected to a carriage base; at least one filter and filter support removably connected to the filter carriage. The filter carriage is movable between at least three positions: in the first position the filter being in an operational location, in the second position the filter being vertically lower but inside the dust collector, and in the third position the filter being outside the dust collector. A method for replacing a filter in the dust collector includes lowering the filter with the filter carriage; translating the filter and carriage out of the dust collector housing; removing the filter from the carriage; placing a replacement filter on the carriage; translating the replacement into the dust collector housing; and raising the filter carriage to lock the replaced filter into an operational location.

Abstract: A removable filter system and a dust collector with the removable filter system. The dust collector includes a filter carriage movably connected to a carriage base; at least one filter and filter support removably connected to the filter carriage. The filter carriage is movable between at least three positions: in the first position the filter being in an operational location, in the second position the filter being vertically lower but inside the dust collector, and in the third position the filter being outside the dust collector. A method for replacing a filter in the dust collector includes lowering the filter with the filter carriage; translating the filter and carriage out of the dust collector housing; removing the filter from the carriage; placing a replacement filter on the carriage; translating the replacement into the dust collector housing; and raising the filter carriage to lock the replaced filter into an operational location.

Abstract: There is provided a storing case adapted to be disposed on top of an amplifier, an amplifier head, or an amplifier stack. The storing case is adapted to receive various accessories normally used by a musician and for storing them. The storing case has an external surface which is made of a material at least visually similar to the material of external surfaces of the amplifier, amplifier head, or amplifier stack. When the storing case is disposed on the amplifier, amplifier head, or amplifier stack, which is disposed on a stage, the storing case seems to be, for a spectator in front of the stage, an integral part of a set comprising the storing case and the amplifier, amplifier head, or amplifier stack.

Abstract: A system and method for forwarding fault information in an optical network is disclosed. Responsive to a fault being detected at a node, the fault information is forwarded to the destination node in the form of a loss-of-signal condition by turning off laser transmitters used to propagate the signal towards its destination. Thus, a node or other network element not capable of generating an alarm signal consistent with an established alarm signaling protocol, such as a SONET alarm indication signal (AIS) or an SDH multiplexer section alarm indication signal MS-AIS, may still forward the fault condition to a downstream element.

Abstract: A waste container is designed to accommodate sorting of waste in a plurality of basic categories, such as recyclables, compostables, and terminal wastes. The container is constructed from a plurality of individual components which may be assembled for use. The container includes a floor supported large receptacle which supports a hollow shell having a closable lid. One or more smaller receptacles are supported within the shell overlying the larger opening. The shell and smaller receptacles are configured to provide a passageway therebetween to allow direct access to the larger receptacle without disturbing the container's assembled relationship.
