Abstract: A method and system for testing the performance of one or more cells in a wireless communication network using a mobile device is provided. The system and method includes determining cell information relating to the cell to be tested; determining one or more pre-test criteria and one or more post-test criteria based on the cell information; then determining whether the one or more pre-test criteria are satisfied. If one or more of the pre-test criteria are satisfied, performance of the cell is tested via the mobile device by measuring data related to the one or more pre-test criteria, and determining whether the one or more post-test criteria are satisfied.

Abstract: The disclosure involves the efficient termination of a winding PCB of a planar inductive component to a main PCB, using relatively little space and providing a low-resistance connection. The disclosed methods are especially suitable for planar structures where several winding PCBs, and/or winding PCBs and a main PCB, are all enclosed by the magnetic path components. The methods allow for a winding PCB to simply rest on the main PCB, or other winding PCBs, without any clearance. The disclosure employs mating sets of conductive annular rings with an optional interlocking terminal pin that allows two PCBs to be fixedly coupled together, while preserving a minimum distance between the solder-mask layers of the two PCBs in order to prevent the formation of unwanted electrical connections between the two PCBs. Solder is used to ensure effective coupling in each assembly of mating annular rings and optional terminal pin.

Abstract: In the exemplary system, a “software” handshake is employed to signal from the keyboard when it is desired to “wake up” the host. After the handshake is completed, a key scan code is communicated to the host. Thereafter the host may revert to “sleep” mode until another keystroke (press or release) occurs. This helps to conserve power and increase battery life.
