  • Publication number: 20160194748
    Abstract: A coated cutting tool and a hard and wear resistant coating for a body include at least one metal based nitride layer. The layer is (ZrxCrl-x-y-zAlyMez)Na with 0.55<x<0.85, 0.05<y<0.45, 0?z<0.20, 0.95<a<1.10, and Me is one or more of the elements: Y, Ti, V, Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Mn or Si. The layer can have a thickness between 0.5 ?m and 15 ?m and be comprisied of a single cubic phase or a single hexagonal phase or a mixture thereof. In an exemplary embodiment, the layer is a cubic phase of a sodium chloride structure. The layer can be deposited using cathodic arc evaporation and is useful for metal cutting applications generating high temperatures.

  • Publication number: 20160150531
    Abstract: Methods by a radio unit and related radio units are disclosed which control capacity of baseband processing resources allocated to a radio communication cell. The method includes determining a deadline margin for a prior transmission time interval (TTI) based on a difference between a time when baseband processing of data for transmission completed and a defined deadline time for completion of the baseband processing. The method further includes determining a desired capacity of baseband processing resources to allocate to the radio communication cell for a present TTI, and controlling capacity of baseband processing resources allocated to the radio communication cell for the present TTI based on the deadline margin and the desired capacity.
