  • Patent number: 10673497
    Abstract: Methods and arrangements are described for Multi User Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) signaling via Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) antennas between a base station and one of a plurality of mobile terminals supporting both Single User and Multi User Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO) signaling modes. Switching between the modes is supported, and the modes have partly shared signaling. SU-MIMO mode signaling which is not needed for MU-MIMO mode signaling is identified. Data bits of the identified signaling is interpreted to comprise signaling information associated with MU-MIMO mode.

  • Patent number: 10490601
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to data storage and computer memory systems, and more particularly, to a SOT-MRAM chip architecture. The SOT-MRAM chip architecture includes a plurality of leads, a plurality of memory cells, and a plurality of transistors. The leads may be made of a material having large spin-orbit coupling strength and high electrical resistivity. Each lead of the plurality of leads may include a plurality of first portions and a plurality of second portions distinct from the first portions. The electrical resistivity of the second portions is less than that of the first portions, so the total electrical resistivity of the lead is reduced, leading to improved power efficiency and signal to noise ratio.

  • Publication number: 20190327744
    Abstract: A first access network device determines a timing offset of a first carrier and a second carrier. The timing offset is an offset between timing of downlink communication of the first carrier and timing of uplink communication of the second carrier. The first carrier is a carrier using a first radio access technology (RAT), and the second carrier is an uplink frequency division duplex (FDD) carrier using the first RAT and a second RAT. The first access network device sends first indication information to a terminal. The first indication information indicates the timing offset, and the timing offset is used to determine the timing of the second carrier. Based on this scheme, the terminal can use a shared frequency band resource of LTE, thereby improving resource utilization.

  • Patent number: 10432740
    Abstract: In the field of communications technologies, a method and an apparatus for accessing an OTT application are disclosed. By using the accessing method, a user can access multiple OTT applications by using one piece of first user information, and therefore, the user does not need to record first user information separately for each OTT application, so as to reduce complexity of accessing multiple OTT applications. Three types of methods and apparatuses for pushing a message by a server are further provided. By using the message pushing methods, a server can push a message to a terminal that registers but does not enable a related OTT application, and the server can also push a message to a terminal that does not register a corresponding OTT application, so that a terminal does not need to receive a message only if a related OTT application is enabled.

  • Publication number: 20190234558
    Abstract: Provided is a leak-proof lubrication system for a power device, comprising an oil supply pump inlet pipe, an oil supply pump, an oil supply pressure gauge, an oil supply pump outlet pipe, an oil supply filter, a lubricating oil, an oil storage tank, an oil return pipe, an storage tank pressure gauge, a vacuum pump intake pipe, a vacuum pump inlet air filter, a vacuum pump and a vacuum pump exhaust pipe. The system employs a negative pressure operation method in which the pressure of the lubrication system is controlled to be lower than the outside ambient pressure, which allows a small amount of air to flow from the outside to the inside of the lubrication system along with the lubricant to return to the storage tank, preventing leakage of the lubricant from connection joints. It is suitable to be used for gas turbines or other high-speed power machines.

  • Publication number: 20190190667
    Abstract: The available transmission resources on a downlink-shared channel are divided into resource blocks, each resource block comprising a predetermined number of sub-carriers during a predetermined time period. The resource blocks are subdivided into localized resource blocks and distributed resource blocks. A user requiring sufficient resources can be allocated a plurality of said localized resource blocks. A user who would require only a small number of said localized resource blocks can instead be allocated subunits of a plurality of said distributed resource blocks.
