  • Patent number: 11991787
    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a plurality of antennas, a plurality of Front End Modules (FEMs) coupled to the antennas, an input for receiving Power over Ethernet (PoE), a PoE detector for identifying a type of PoE received at the apparatus, wherein the type of PoE is associated with a PoE power budget, and a power controller for applying a PoE power conservation policy based on the PoE power budget, wherein applying the PoE power conservation policy comprises switching between a normal operating voltage and a reduced operating voltage at the FEMs. A method is also disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 9293569
    Abstract: A bipolar junction transistor is provided with an emitter region, an oxide region, a base region and a collector region. The base region is located between the emitter region and the oxide region and has a junction with the emitter region and an interface with the oxide region. An at least partially conductive element such as metal or silicon is positioned to overlap with at least part of the junction between the base region and the emitter region, thereby forming a gate. The gate also overlaps with at least part of the interface between the base region and the oxide region. When a suitable bias voltage is applied to the gate, the gain of the transistor can be increased.

  • Publication number: 20150356613
    Abstract: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving at a server system a request from a client computing device for directions from a start geographic location to a destination geographic location; and identifying by the server system at least one mode of transportation from a plurality of modes of transportation for traveling from the start geographic location to the destination geographic location. The method can also include selecting by the server system promotional information related to the identified at least one mode of transportation to provide to the client computing device; and providing by the server system and to the client computing device the selected promotional information with directions to guide a user of the client computing device from the start geographic location to the destination geographic location.

  • Patent number: 6156465
    Abstract: A method of crosstalk correction comprises producing a calibration image having different printed image densities in grayscale, measuring the printed image densities at the different light exposure values to obtain a correlation of printed density in grayscale as a function of light exposure value over a range of light exposure values, obtaining experimental analytical density values for a selected light exposure value within the range of light exposure values and using the correlation of printed density as a function of light exposure value and the experimental analytical density values to correct for crosstalk.
