  • Patent number: 12063546
    Abstract: A technique for controlling and monitoring packet duplication of at least one packet in a radio transmission from at least one transmitting station (100) to a receiving station (200) is described. As to a method aspect of the technique, a control message (710) that is indicative of the packet duplication in the radio transmission is transmitted to the receiving station (200). The control message (710) controls the receiving station (200) to monitor a reception of duplicates (712) of the at least one packet. Two or more duplicates (712) of the at least one packet are transmitted to the receiving station (200). A control feedback (714) that is indicative of a result of the monitoring is received from the receiving station (200).

  • Publication number: 20240198487
    Abstract: A wet and dry abrasive media blasting system comprises a compressed air supply providing a supply of blast air and pot air. The blast air is communicated along a blast air supply line and pot air is communicated along a pot air supply line. A blast pot is configured to receive abrasive media and pot air and release abrasive media at a discharge and into a media conduit which communicated abrasive media to a mixing device. An air pressure amplifier disposed on the pot air supply line is adapted to selectively increase the air pressure of a pot air head creating an over-pressure, such that the over-pressure which is pressure of pot air head less the pressure of the blast air is positive. The blast air and the abrasive media are mixed together in the mixing device to form a blast air media mixture which is communicated to a nozzle and discharged from the nozzle as a blast spray.

  • Publication number: 20240140829
    Abstract: An exemplary power system utilizes turbines configured within a water intake conduit to the desalination processor to produce power for the desalination processor. Water intakes are configured to provide a natural flow of water to the desalination processor though hydrostatic pressure. One or more turbines coupled with the water intake conduits are driven and produce power for the system, as well as through solar and battery power. The desalination processor incorporates Graphene filters to and may include a structured water system to increase the H3O2 concentration of the water prior to Graphene filters. Discharge water may be pumped back into the body of water but be separated from the intakes, A secondary power source, such as a renewable power source, may be used to produce supplemental power for the system. Power produced may be provided to a secondary outlet, such as a power grid, all above and/or underground.

  • Patent number: 11973596
    Abstract: There is presented a method for operating a user equipment, UE (300) in a wireless communication network (10). The method comprises receiving (302) a message indicating an uplink radio resource, the uplink resource having occurred before receiving the message. The method further comprises transmitting (304) a second representation of a data packet based on determining that the indicated uplink radio resource has been used by the UE for transmitting a first representation of the data packet, prior to receiving the message. Additionally, a method for operating a network node (200) in a wireless communication network (10) is disclosed, the method comprises detecting (202) a signal on an uplink resource configured for grant free access and transmitting (204) a non-UE specific message based on the signal not being successfully received and wherein the non-UE specific message comprises information indicating the uplink resource configured for grant free access.

  • Publication number: 20240121686
    Abstract: A technique for forwarding data packets (730) during a handover of a radio device (100) from a source cell to a target cell of a radio network (702) serving as a time-sensitive networking, TSN, bridge (700) is described. As to a method aspect of the technique at the radio device (100), first TSN data packets (730) are forwarded in the source cell using a first PDU session (704) between the radio device (100) and a user plane, UP (300), of a core network, CN (720), of the radio network (702). Prior to releasing the first PDU session (704), a second PDU session (704) is established (404) between the radio device (100) and the UP (300) of the CN (720) in the target cell, wherein the first PDU session (704) uses a first active protocol stack at the radio device (100) and the second PDU session (704) uses a second active protocol stack at the radio device (100). Second TSN data packets (730) are forwarded in the target cell using the second PDU session (704).

  • Patent number: 11934344
    Abstract: In certain instances, a data management application (software application) that manages moving data files, and the like, from a primary high-speed storage system. An end-user can configure the data management application for particular files via management policies. Based on the management policies, after a file is migrated from the primary storage system to a targeted secondary storage system, a breadcrumb pointing to a webpage for the migrated file is left behind in the primary storage system. The webpage can be used to manage the migrated file, such as moving the migrated file back to the primary storage system.
