  • Publication number: 20210165663
    Abstract: A boot option system includes a pre-boot execution environment system coupled to a server device through a network. The server device creates a device placeholder boot option including a device path terminating at a storage controller in the server device. During a first boot and based on first boot instructions received from the pre-boot execution environment system, the server device moves the device placeholder boot option to a desired location within a boot sequence for the server device. During a second boot and based on second boot instructions received from the pre-boot execution environment system, the server device provides an operating system on the server device. The server device then replaces, at the desired location within the boot sequence, the device placeholder boot option with an operating system boot option that was provided on the server device in response to the provisioning of the operating system on the server device.

  • Patent number: 10915718
    Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) positioning system comprises transceivers, positioning tags, processing units and a computing host. One or multiple positioning tags are attached to a target object being located. When the transceivers first generate and transmit transmission signals, one or multiple tag antennas in the positioning tag receive the transmission signals and transmit back modulated signals. The transceivers then receive and transmit the modulated signals to the processing units. The processing units are configured to obtain received signals, and calculate frequency differences based on the received signals and the transmission signals. The computing host calculates position coordinates of tag antennas based on the frequency differences, and then calculates the orientation of the target object being located according to the position coordinates of the tag antennas.
