  • Publication number: 20230102723
    Abstract: Provided are an RF front-end architecture, an antenna device and a communication terminal. The RF front-end architecture comprises a primary RF front-end module and a secondary RF front-end module. The communication terminal optimizes the RF front-end architecture on the internal antenna device, and is able to work in a multi-antenna working mode to realize the receiving and transmission of multiplex RF signals. The architecture is relatively simple in structure, only two RF front-end modules are needed to realize multiplex transmission and multiplex receiving of RF signals, meanwhile, different frequency band signals which need to be accessed can be flexibly controlled and adjusted. Moreover, the low noise amplifiers in the architecture all support the amplification of multi-band frequency signals, which can ensure the realization of 1T4R, 2T4R and other functions in fewer RF front-end modules, ensure the realization of rich function of the architecture, and reduce the area of the architecture.

  • Patent number: 10911366
    Abstract: Technologies for balancing throughput across input ports include a network switch. The network switch is to generate, for an arbiter unit in a first stage of a hierarchy of stages of arbiter units, turn data indicative of a set of turns in which to transfer packet data from devices connected to input ports of the arbiter unit. The network switch is also to transfer, with the arbiter unit, the packet data from the devices in the set of turns. Additionally, the network switch is to determine weight data indicative of the number of turns represented in the set and provide the weight data from the arbiter unit in the first stage to another arbiter unit in a subsequent stage to cause the arbiter unit in the subsequent stage to allocate a number of turns for the transfer of the packet data from the arbiter unit in the first stage.

  • Patent number: 8625270
    Abstract: A pen-type computer peripheral device includes an elongated housing containing a PCBA having a plug connector, and cap/cover that is slidably connected to a front portion of the housing. Locking structures are respectively integrally molded onto opposing surfaces of the housing and cap/cover that cooperate to prevent separation of the cap/cover from the housing. By manually pushing (sliding) the cap/cover relative to the housing, the plug connector is effectively moved between a retracted position, in which the plug connector is disposed inside the cap/cover, and a deployed position in which the plug connector extends through a front housing opening of the cap/cover such that the plug connector is operably exposed for insertion into a host system.
