Abstract: An example device includes a wireless charging circuit to wirelessly charge a portable electronic device. The device further includes a first photosensor positioned within an effective charging range of the wireless charging circuit, the first photosensor to output a first signal, and a second photosensor positioned outside the effective charging range, the second photosensor to output a second signal. The device further includes a control circuit connected to the wireless charging circuit, the first photosensor, and the second photosensor. The control circuit detects the portable electronic device positioned within the effective charging range of the wireless charging circuit by detecting a difference between the first signal and the second signal. The control circuit turns on the wireless charging circuit in response to detecting the difference. The control circuit turns off the wireless charging circuit in response to detecting that the first signal matches the second signal.

Abstract: A system includes a signal processing module and a control module. The signal processing module receives a first clear channel assessment (CCA) signal for a first sub-channel of a communication channel, increases a pulse width of the first CCA signal by a predetermined period of time, and generates a second CCA signal. The control module receives the second CCA signal and a third CCA signal for a second sub-channel of the communication channel. The control module transmits data via one of the second sub-channel and the communication channel based on the second and third CCA signals.

Abstract: A process of separating a desired constituent from a mixture of particulate matter including the steps of: conditioning a liquid mixture of particulate matter with a frothing agent to create a pulp; aerating the pulp to generate a float fraction of froth supported on the surface of a non-float fraction of pulp; separating a portion of froth from the float fraction; draining the separated froth; washing the separated froth with a liquid to dislodge particles comprising one or more of non-selectively attached, entrained, and entrapped particles; and recovering the washed froth, is disclosed herein. Also disclosed herein are a froth cleaning apparatus and a froth flotation apparatus for separating a desired constituent from a mixture of particulate matter.

Abstract: A wireless network device includes N access point (AP) modules having N BSSID's, where N is an integer greater than 1. The wireless network device includes a control module that communicates with the N AP modules. The control module stores the N BSSID's, a BSSID of an (N+1)th external AP that communicates with M client stations, and at least one MAC address of at least one of the M client stations, where M is an integer greater than or equal to 1. The control module communicates with the (N+1)th external AP by emulating at least one of the M client stations.

Abstract: A wireless network device includes a first media access controller (MAC) that generates a first output signal, a second MAC that generates a second output signal, and a communication channel. The communication channel includes a baseband processor in communication with a radio frequency transmitter and selectively transmits one of the first output signal and the second output signal.

Abstract: A process of separating a desired constituent from a mixture of particulate matter including the steps of: conditioning a liquid mixture of particulate matter with a frothing agent to create a pulp; aerating the pulp to generate a float fraction of froth supported on the surface of a non-float fraction of pulp; separating a portion of froth from the float fraction; draining the separated froth; washing the separated froth with a liquid to dislodge particles comprising one or more of non-selectively attached, entrained, and entrapped particles; and recovering the washed froth, is disclosed herein. Also disclosed herein are a froth cleaning apparatus and, a froth flotation apparatus for separating a desired constituent from a mixture of particulate matter.
