Abstract: An antenna overlay system includes antenna hardware, a communication link, and electronic circuitry disposed on a substrate. The communication link couples the electronic circuitry to the antenna hardware. During operation, the electronic circuitry in communication with the antenna hardware is operable to control transmission and reception of wireless signals in a wireless region. An adhesive layer disposed on a surface of the substrate couples the substrate to an object such as a window. In one arrangement, the window is a low-E glass windowpane that substantially attenuates wireless signals from being received by communication equipment in a building in which the windowpane is installed. The antenna overlay system provides enhanced RF signal reception and transmission.

Abstract: A wave launcher may include a printed circuit board (PCB) that includes a pin that receives a radio frequency (RF) signal. The wave launcher may include a cylinder configured to be electrically coupled to the pin and define an opening. The cylinder may receive the RF signal from the pin, form a transition from coplanar to Goubau line structure with a plate, and generate the surface wave. The wave launcher may include an insulator configured to be physically positioned within the opening and between the cylinder and a power line. The insulator may mechanically isolate the cylinder from the power line and permit the cylinder to launch the surface wave on the power line. The wave launcher may include the plate electrically coupled to a pad and may provide a reference for the pin and the cylinder. The pin and the cylinder may be physically positioned proximate the plate.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for increasing accessibility of digital content. For instance, a code for the digital content and one or more accessibility guidelines are received. The code is analyzed to identify a violation of an accessibility guideline. The digital content presented in accordance with the code, data indicative of the violation, and an option to correct the violation are displayed on a User Interface (UI). In response to receiving an input indicative of a selection of the option to correct the violation, one or more correction options to correct the violation are provided. In response to a selection of a correction option, the code is altered, based on the selected correction option. The alteration of the code corrects the violation of the accessibility guideline and thereby changes one or more aspects of how the digital content is to be presented.

Weights of every edge connected between any two entities in the enterprise graph is then calculated. Community of the individuals are detected wherein, relevant insider(s) are identified, and susceptibility of the individuals for probable influence by relevant insider(s) based on the analysis scenarios(s) is calculated. Paths taken by the relevant insider(s) is calculated for estimating probability of data loss.
