Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for beam steering of a circuit-board based phase array of antennas. An RF signal can be distributed via coplanar waveguide conductors to a plurality of microstrip line conductors arranged in a dual-frequency liquid crystal medium. A low frequency control signal can be injected into each of the microstrip line conductors, preferably while each line is still in a coplanar waveguide form. This low frequency control signal modified a local permittivity of the dual-frequency liquid crystal in the vicinity of a corresponding one of the microstrip lines, thereby imparting a controlled phase delay to the RF signal on each microstrip line. This in turn allows a phase-controlled RF signal to be received at each antenna in the array.

Abstract: Method of receiving and delivering content and apparatus and a system therefor The present application discloses a method of receiving content at a client device. The method comprises: receiving at the client device details of a first geo fence defining a first geographical area associated with the content; determining whether or not the client device is located within a second geo fence defining a second geographical area, wherein the second geographical area includes at least part of the first geographical area and a further geographical area which does not form part of the first geographical area; and receiving the content if the determination is made that the client device is located within the second geo fence.

Abstract: A system and method for searching electronic profile data of people or other entities in an organization, and identifying people whose profiles have selected values associated with selected fields matching the corresponding selected values and fields of an anchor profile for the purpose of discovering commonalities between profiles.

Abstract: A social activity stream application for managing virtual actionable conversations allows participants in a conversation to request actions to be performed in various external systems. A request to perform an action in an external system is received from a conversation participant, and sent to the external system, in which the requested action may then be performed. In this manner, conversation participants may use a single application to monitor and request actions in multiple external systems.
