  • Publication number: 20230388986
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing carrier frequencies for wireless communications in wireless local area networks (WLANs). Some implementations more specifically relate to packet designs that support wireless communications on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may map a physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) to orthogonal subcarriers according to existing tone plans associated with carrier frequencies below 7 GHz and may up-clock the PPDU for transmission on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz (such as by increasing the frequency of a clock signal used to convert the PPDU between the frequency domain and the time domain). In some implementations, the PPDU may conform to an existing PPDU format designed for sub-7 GHz wireless communications. In some other implementations, the PPDU may conform to a “green field” PPDU format optimized for wireless communications on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz.

  • Publication number: 20230384211
    Abstract: A process tube device can detect the presence of any external materials that may reside within a fluid flowing in the tube. The process tube device detects the external materials in-situ which obviates the need for a separate inspection device to inspect the surface of a wafer after applying fluid on the surface of the wafer. The process tube device utilizes at least two methods of detecting the presence of external materials. The first is the direct measurement method in which a light detecting sensor is used. The second is the indirect measurement method in which a sensor utilizing the principles of Doppler shift is used. Here, contrary to the first method that at least partially used reflected or refracted light, the second method uses a Doppler shift sensor to detect the presence of the external material by measuring the velocity of the fluid flowing in the tube.

  • Patent number: 11828149
    Abstract: An oil and gas fracturing tool is disclosed, mainly involving a fracking tool with an electromagnetic intelligent control sliding sleeve including an outer sleeve section, a dart body section and a control section. The outer sleeve section is at the target location to be fractured. The effect of fracturing is mainly achieved by the dart body, which has an activated state and an inactive state. The initial state is inactive, and the front locking tip can be deformed under pressure during displacement. The diameter can change to pass through any sliding sleeve. When the dart body is counted and is about to reach the fracturing position, the front locking tip is blocked from deformation and cannot be reduced in diameter, thus pressurizing to control the fracturing effect. The control part includes a sensor module, a drive module, a main control module and a power supply module.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an integrated circuit die with vertical interconnect features to enable direct connection between vertically stacked integrated circuit dies. The vertical interconnect features may be formed in a sealing ring, which allows higher routing density than interposers or redistribution layer. The direct connection between vertically stacked integrated circuit dies reduces interposer layers, redistribution process, and bumping processes in multi-die integration, thus, reducing cost of manufacturing.

  • Publication number: 20230379725
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing carrier frequencies for wireless communications in wireless local area networks. Some implementations more specifically relate to beamforming training operations that support wireless communications on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz. In some aspects, a beamforming initiator may initiate a beamforming training operation by transmitting a number (N) of beamforming training (BFT) packets in N TX beam directions, respectively, on a carrier frequency above 7 GHz. The beamforming responder receives one or more of the BFT packets and provides feedback to the beamforming initiator indicating the TX beam direction associated with the BFT packet having the highest received signal power. In some aspects, the beamforming responder may train its RX antennas for RX beamforming concurrently while the beamforming initiator trains its TX antennas.
