Abstract: A radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag, or tag, is affixed to a particular item and stores unique identifying information about that item. It can be queried with a reader that transmits wireless signals to the tag and receive the tag's responses, which can be correlated with information in inventory records. Conventionally, when a reader stops receiving a tag's responses to these queries, the inventory records are updated to show that the tag and associated item have been removed from the inventory. But a tag can stop producing detectable response for other reasons, including being too close to other tags, so simply removing the tag and item can lead to inaccurate inventory records. Stateful inventory technology address this problem by maintaining and transitioning tags among different states, including a stale state for tags that have not been read recently, depending on when and where the tags were last read.

Abstract: A transmission assembly may include a transmission housing; and a receiving space for receiving an electrical functional unit. The receiving space may be formed by at least one wall in the transmission housing and a lid unit, the receiving space may be sealable from an exterior environment via a seal in a contact region on the transmission housing and the lid unit. The lid unit may be connectable to the transmission housing by a screw, where the lid unit includes a channel through which at least part of the screw passes, and where the channel has an inner thread section.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a method, a decoder and/or an encoder for entropy coding of parameters of neural networks and their incremental updates, and in particular to reduced value set coding and history depended significance coding.

Abstract: Radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems use readers to query and locate passive RFID tags in stores, warehouses, and other environments. An interrogation signal emitted by an antenna array from a reader powers up the tag, which replies by modulating and backscattering incident radiation toward the reader. The antenna array in the reader detects the modulated and backscattered radiation, which is usually several of orders of magnitude weaker than the interrogation signal, as the tag's reply. Unfortunately, crosstalk between the antenna elements in the antenna array limits the reader's sensitivity, which in turn limits the range at which the reader can detect and locate tags. Increasing the pitch of the antenna array to greater than half the wavelength of the interrogation signal reduces crosstalk but introduces grating lobes that produce spurious replies. Fortunately, filtering these spurious replies yields sensitive measurements from an antenna array with a pitch large enough to suppress crosstalk.

Abstract: Processes for determining carbon dioxide emission impact. In one process, a carbon dioxide emission impact is determined for each stage of a multi-stage trip. A traveler may make adjustments to the trip to offset the carbon dioxide emission impact of the entire trip and achieve a desired sustainability level for the trip. In another process, that may be used in the first process, the carbon dioxide emission impact for a vehicle is determined based on the entire life span of the vehicle, including a carbon dioxide emission impact for a production stage, a carbon dioxide emission impact for a usage stage, and a carbon dioxide emission impact for an end of life stage.
