  • Publication number: 20240144996
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein compensating for neighbor memory cell interference on a target memory cell when reading the target memory cell. The voltage that is applied to the bit line associated with the target memory cell may have a magnitude that depends on the data state of the neighbor memory cell. The magnitude of the voltage on the bit line may impact the amount of drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) experienced by the target memory cell. The amount of DIBL may be used to provide a desired amount of compensation for the neighbor memory cell interference. A higher bit line voltage may be used to create a greater amount of DIBL and therefore greater amount of compensation for neighbor memory cell interference.

  • Patent number: 11653268
    Abstract: A core network can send first data transmissions to a radio access network (RAN) at a first data rate that is based at least in part on a first RAT policy associated with a first RAT used by the RAN for downlink transmissions to user equipment. The core network can obtain information indicating that the RAN is using a second RAT for the downlink transmissions to the user equipment. The core network can cause a RAT policy that is applied to the data transmissions from the core network to the RAN to be changed from the first RAT policy to a second RAT policy that is associated with the second RAT. The core network can send second data transmissions from the core network to the RAN at a second data rate that is based at least in part on the second RAT policy.
