  • Publication number: 20240146586
    Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose e.g. a method performed by a wireless device (10) for handling communication for the wireless device in a second wireless communication network. The second wireless communication network coexists with a first wireless communication network on a same bandwidth in frequency, wherein the first wireless communication network applies a first shift in frequency in uplink transmissions. The wireless device receives from a radio network node (12, 13), an indication indicating application of a second shift in frequency to uplink transmissions in case the second wireless communication network uses Frequency Division Duplex (FDD). The wireless device further applies the second shift in frequency to uplink transmissions, wherein the second shift defines a shift in frequency to a subcarrier relative to a subcarrier grid of the second wireless communication network or a shift in frequency to the subcarrier grid of the second wireless communication network.

  • Patent number: 11505218
    Abstract: An electric machine comprises a housing (9) enclosing at least a rotor (5) and stator windings (4) of a stator (2) of the machine and comprising an end shield (10, 11) at each axial end of the machine. The housing has an air inlet (15) at a first axial end (12) of the machine and a peripheral air outlet (16) at the other, second axial end (13) of the machine. A fan (17) is arranged in the housing at said second axial end to rotate with the rotor for creating a flow of air through the housing from the air inlet to the air outlet for cooling parts of the electric machine. An air outlet channel (19) conducts air radially leaving the fan to the air outlet (16). This channel has a first channel portion with first walls (21) directing air leaving the fan (17) axially back in the direction of the first axial end (12) and a second channel portion with second walls (23) redirecting the air flow from the fan to assume a major radial component.

  • Patent number: 11294784
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for providing predictive user interface elements. A computing system may train a machine-learning model to identify issues that are likely being experienced by users contacting a customer service system based at least in part on historical user account data of a plurality of user accounts. When a request for assistance is received, user account data corresponding to the request may be obtained and provided to the model to identify issues likely experienced by a user. A number of graphical user interface (GUI) elements (e.g., “match cards”), each corresponding to one of the identified issues, may be generated, ranked, and presented in accordance with the ranking. Each GUI element may be selectable. Upon selection additional data likely to be pertinent to the selected issue may be presented alleviating a need to search for this data as would be the case in conventional systems.

  • Patent number: 7011738
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for activation of a cathode comprising at least a cathode substrate wherein the cathode is cleaned by means of an acid, the cleaned cathode is coated with at least one electrocatalytic coating solution, drying the coated cathode until it is at least substantially dry, and thereafter contacting the cathode with a solvent redissolving precipitated electrocatalytic salts or acids formed on the cathode, originating from the electrocatalytic solution, to form dissolved electrocatalytic metal ions on the cathode surface, so that said electrocatalytic metal ions can precipitate as metals on the cathode. The invention also comprises a cathode obtainable by the method and the use of an activated cathode in an electrolytic cell for producing chlorine and alkali hydroxide.
