  • Publication number: 20230224003
    Abstract: A method is proposed for operating a re-configurable reflective device, RRD, the RRD being re-configurable to provide multiple spatial filters, each one of the multiple spatial filters being associated with a respective input spatial direction from which incident signals on a data radio channel are accepted and with a respective output spatial direction into which the incident signals are reflected by the RRD. The method comprises: receiving, by the RRD from a first communication node, CN1, on a positioning radio channel different from the data radio channel, a CN1 reference signal, determining, by the RRD, an estimated CN1 angle of arrival of the CN1 reference signal, and reconfiguring the RRD based on the estimated CN1 angle of arrival.

  • Publication number: 20230194080
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for removing pollutants from organic solid waste by pyrolysis coupled with chemical looping combustion are provided. The apparatus includes: an air reactor, a fuel reactor, and a pyrolysis gasifier. The pyrolysis gasifier is sleeved outside the fuel reactor, and the air reactor is connected with the fuel reactor. A top end of the air reactor is connected with a top delivery pipe; the top delivery pipe is connected with a first cyclone separator; and the first cyclone separator is connected with an oxygen carrier refeeder provided at a top end of the fuel reactor. The apparatus forms a two-stage reaction unit of pyrolysis and chemical looping combustion by decoupling the pyrolysis process from the chemical looping combustion, which avoids the contact between the complex ash of organic solid waste and the oxygen carrier, thereby improving the service life of the oxygen carrier.
