  • Publication number: 20260156638
    Abstract: The application discloses a wireless communication method and device. A first wireless communication device determines a transmission time boundary for latency sensitive traffic. A traffic transmission request frame from a second wireless communication device is received, wherein the traffic transmission request frame includes a duration information indicating a duration period during which the second wireless communication device expects to occupy a channel. In response to a determination that the duration period exceeds the transmission time boundary and traffic from the second wireless communication device to the first wireless communication device is latency non-sensitive, the first wireless communication device decides not to send a traffic transmission permission frame to the second wireless communication device.

  • Patent number: 12588322
    Abstract: A micro light-emitting diode structure includes a first-type semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer, a second-type semiconductor layer, and a base layer stacked with each other. A width of the light-emitting layer is greater than that of the first-type semiconductor layer and that of the second-type semiconductor layer. A width of the base layer is at least greater than that of the second-type semiconductor layer. A manufacturing method of the micro light-emitting diode structure by mixing dry etching and wet etching. The manufacturing method not only reduces the time that the semiconductor layers are in contact with the etching solution in the wet etching process to increase the etching stability, but avoids the dangling bond effect on the sidewall caused by the dry etching. Therefore, a combination of the advantages of the two etchings further increases the external quantum efficiency.
