  • Publication number: 20230388715
    Abstract: A transducer converts electric signals into mechanical vibrations. It has an upper part, a lower part, an outer permanent magnet arrangement and an upper cover in the upper part, and an inner permanent magnet arrangement and a lower cover in the lower part. The covers comprise magnetic material. At least one coil is configured to create, under influence of an electric current, dynamic magnetic forces in the direction of an axis line of the transducer. Said outer and inner permanent magnet arrangements are at least partly on the same level with each other. The inner permanent magnet arrangement occupies a space closer to said axis line. Oppositely named magnetic poles of the outer and inner permanent magnet arrangements face each other.

  • Patent number: 11388521
    Abstract: An arrangement for generating vibration according to an electrical input signal includes a first permanent magnet arrangement including a first permanent magnet, a frame including magnetic material, a second permanent magnet configured to be arranged between the first permanent magnet and the frame and to be coupled with the frame, one or more portion of the frame extending at least in one direction over an edge area of the second permanent magnet. The second permanent magnet is further configured to face, at a distance, the first permanent magnet such that a magnetic interaction between the first permanent magnet and the second permanent magnet causes a first force to a surface of an apparatus, wherein the frame is configured to be magnetized by the second permanent magnet in order to cause magnetic interaction between the one or more portion of the frame and the first permanent magnet arrangement in order to cause a second force to the surface having an opposite direction compared with the first force.

  • Patent number: 7356005
    Abstract: Apparatus, and associated method, for facilitating reverse link scheduling in a CDMA 2000 communication system (FIG. 1, 10) that provides for high data rate communication services, such as 1xEV-DV communication services. Power control bits (FIG. 1, 46) used to perform power control on the reverse link are punctured with rate grant control bits and HARQ indications. A power control bit puncturer (FIG. 1, 48) punctures the power control bits with the rate grant control bits and HARQ indications. Physical layer signaling is thereby provided without the need to define additional control channels operations.

  • Patent number: 6950401
    Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, for allocating resources in a communication system, such as a multi-code, multi-rate CDMA communication system. Communication indicia by which data to be communicated during operation of the communication system is coded and modulated is selected responsive to communication characteristics of the communication channel upon which the data is to be communicated. The levels of coding and modulating are determined responsive to measured levels of the communication characteristics on the channel. Also, a scheduler by which to schedule packet communication upon a shared communication channel is provided.
