Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, configuration information indicating a set of component carriers (CCs) associated with the UE. The UE may receive, from the base station, a message that activates or deactivates one or more CCs of the set of CCs. The UE may communicate, with the base station, after receiving the message, using one or more activated CCs of the set of CCs over a tuned radio frequency (RF) bandwidth that is based on receiving the message and based on the one or more activated CCs. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Abstract: The application provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure and the semiconductor structure, and relates to the technical field of semiconductors. The method for manufacturing the semiconductor structure includes: providing a base; sequentially stacking an initial conductive layer, an initial first dielectric layer, an initial first mask layer, an initial second dielectric layer, an initial second mask layer and a photoresist layer with a pattern on the base; and etching part of the initial second mask layer, part of the initial second dielectric layer and part of the initial first mask layer by taking the photoresist layer as a mask, so as to form a second dielectric layer with a trapezoidal structure which is of a structure with small top and large bottom.

Abstract: A method and system for resynchronizing an embedded multimedia system using bytes consumed in an audio decoder. The bytes consumed provides a mechanism to compensate for bit error handling and correction in a system that does not require re-transmission. The audio decoder keeps track of the bytes consumed and periodically reports the bytes consumed. A host microprocessor indexes the actual bytes consumed since bit errors may have been handled or corrected to a predetermined byte count to determine whether resynchronization is necessary.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a system and method for improving performance of HARQ operation in a wireless communication system. The proposed method enables a receiver to update a receive buffer only if newly received values corresponding to a data packet are more reliable than previous values corresponding to the same data packet (that are stored in the receive buffer). The receiver may use the more reliable information (e.g., the newly received values or the previously stored values) for decoding.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for a wireless communication device are provided. The apparatus determines a receive timing for receiving through at least one receive chain element. The apparatus determines a time to turn on/off at least one transmit chain element based on the determined receive timing and based on receiver impact to the at least one receive chain element caused by turning on/off the at least one transmit chain element. The apparatus reduces receiver impact to the at least one receive chain element by turning on/off the at least one transmit chain element at the determined time.
