  • Publication number: 20240381270
    Abstract: A terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a receiving section that attempts reception of a first synchronization signal block; and a control section that controls, when the reception of the first synchronization signal block has failed, transmission of a preamble by using a random access occasion for report of the failure.

  • Publication number: 20240353762
    Abstract: Provided is a simulation apparatus configured to, in a process of bringing a member into contact with a plurality of droplets placed on a substrate to form a film of a curable composition on the substrate, highly accurately and rapidly predict spread of boundary droplets located in a boundary region which is a region on the substrate corresponding to at least an edge of the member when the member is contacted. The simulation apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information indicating placement of the plurality of droplets on the substrate and a first droplet region which is a predicted region in which each of the droplets spreads around the droplet, and a prediction unit configured to predict, as a second droplet region, a region in which each of the boundary droplets spreads around the boundary droplet in a different way from the first droplet region of droplets other than the boundary droplet in the first droplet region acquired by the acquisition unit.

  • Publication number: 20240284193
    Abstract: A terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a receiving section that receives a synchronization signal block including a first signal and a second signal; and a control section that controls the reception of the synchronization signal block by assuming that a first beam used for the first signal is different from a second beam used for the second signal. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, coverage can be improved by taking account of overhead.

  • Patent number: 11693309
    Abstract: Provided is an imprint apparatus advantageous in terms of throughput. An imprint apparatus which brings an imprint material on a mold substrate into contact with a mold and forms a pattern made of the imprint material includes: a mold holding unit which holds the mold; a substrate holding unit which holds the substrate; a detecting unit which detects the occurrence of abnormality in a holding operation in the mold holding unit or the substrate holding unit and a position of the mold or the substrate; and a controller which performs at least one of the determination concerning whether or not a return process in which a state is returned from a state in which the abnormality of the holding operation has occurred to a normal state is possible and the execution of the return process on the basis of a result of the detection of the detecting unit.
