  • Time-division-duplex repeaters with global navigation satellite system timing recovery
    Patent number: 11937199
    Abstract: A repeater for wireless communications systems can include a time-division-duplex (TDD) architecture with a timing recovery system for switching between uplink and downlink. In some approaches, the timing recovery system can receive a timing reference from a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), or Galileo.

  • Accidental-volume-removal prevention
    Patent number: 10963179
    Abstract: A method to prevent the inadvertent removal of volumes on a storage system is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes receiving a request to remove (e.g., delete, detach, unmask, etc.) a volume on a storage system. In response to receiving the request, the method initiates at least one process to monitor the volume for I/O activity over a specified period of time. In the event the at least one process does not detect I/O activity to the volume during the specified period of time, the method executes the request by removing the volume. In the event the at least one process detects I/O activity to the volume during the specified period of time, the method denies the request to remove the volume. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
