Publication number: 20220093945Abstract: A dehydrogenation method for hydrogen storage materials, which is executed by a fuel cell system. The fuel cell system includes a hydrogen storage material tank, a heating unit, a fuel cell, a pump, a water thermal management unit and a heat recovery unit. The described dehydrogenation method utilizes the heating unit and the heat recovery unit to provide thermal energy to the hydrogen storage material tank, so that hydrogen storage material is heated to the dehydrogenation temperature. The pump extracts hydrogen from the hydrogen storage material tank, so that the hydrogen storage material is under negative pressure (i.e. H2 absolute pressure below 1 atm), according to which the hydrogen storage material is dehydrogenated, and the dehydrogenation efficiency and the amount of hydrogen release are improved. The method n can reduce the dehydrogenation temperature of the hydrogen storage material, and reduce the thermal energy consumption for heating the hydrogen storage material.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2021Publication date: March 24, 2022Inventors: Chia-Chieh SHEN, Shih-Hung CHAN, Fang-Bor WENG, Ho Chun CHEUNG, Yi-Hsuan LIN, Mei-Chin CHEN, Jyun-Wei CHEN, Ya-Che WU, Han-Wen LIU, Kuan-Lin CHEN, Jin-Xun ZHANG

Patent number: 11197338Abstract: A UE in a wireless network performs RRM measurements according to power saving schemes. The UE receives Synchronization Signal Blocks (SSBs), which are broadcast periodically from a base station to a cell served by the base station, and receives additional signal blocks transmitted periodically from the base station. The additional signal blocks and the SSBs use different time-and-frequency resources. The UE performs an RRM measurement according to information received within an RRM measurement window including at least one of the additional signal blocks and a corresponding one of the SSBs. Additionally or alternatively, the UE performs RRM measurements on SSBs with a first cycle period equal to a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle period. In response to an indication that a predefined condition for the RRM measurements is satisfied, the UE performs the RRM measurements with a second cycle period which is at least two times of the first cycle period.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2019Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: MediaTek Inc.Inventors: Chi-Hsuan Hsieh, Wei-De Wu, Din-Hwa Huang, Kuan-Lin Chen
