Abstract: Current wireless networks do not allow machine type communication (MTC) devices to have long discontinuous reception (DRX) cycles or sleep lengths. A long DRX cycle may allow MTC systems and devices to operate with much longer DRX/Sleep cycles/periods. This may facilitate the MTC operations for infrequent system access or infrequent system reaching (e.g. paged once in a week) with no or low mobility and may allow MTC devices to sleep for a long time with low power consumption.

Abstract: Putter type club head with vertical groove patterns are described herein. A putter type club head comprises a putter face having a plurality of first curved grooves and a plurality of second curved grooves. The first curved grooves and the second curved grooves extend in a general vertical direction, and intersect each other at a plurality of points across the putter face. The width and depth of the first curved grooves and the second curved grooves can vary across the putter face in a direction extending from a heel end to a toe end, and/or in a direction extending from a top rail to a sole. The vertical groove pattern provides consistent ball speed performance for any impact location on the putter face.

The valve seat insert may define an oil passage in fluid communication with the intake valve port.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for autonomous security and functional safety (FUSA) of clock and voltages. The apparatus may include: a multiplexer having a first input communicatively coupled to a pin to receive a first clock external to a die, and a second input coupled to an output of a divider; an oscillator to provide a second clock; and a counter coupled to an output of the multiplexer and the oscillator, wherein the counter is to operate with the second clock and is to determine a frequency of the first clock. The apparatus may further include a voltage monitor circuitry for monitoring voltage(s) for FUSA, a reference generator for FUSA, a duty cycle monitor for FUSA, a frequency degradation monitor for FUSA, and a phase error degradation monitor for FUSA.

Abstract: A method for reporting power headroom is disclosed. Power headroom may be reported across all carriers (wideband), for a specific carrier, or for a carrier group. The formula used to calculate the power headroom depends on whether the carrier (or a carrier in the carrier group) has a valid uplink grant. If the carrier or carrier group does not have a valid uplink grant, the power headroom may be calculated based on a reference grant. The power headroom is calculated by a wireless transmit/receive unit and is reported to an eNodeB.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is configured to receive a WTRU-specific configuration of WTRU-specific sounding reference signal (SRS) subframes for performing SRS transmissions. The WTRU is configured to receive a trigger in a subframe to transmit a first SRS. The WTRU is configured to select a first subframe. The WTRU is configured to determine that a maximum power would be exceeded in a symbol in the selected first subframe. The WTRU is configured to, on a condition that transmission of at least one other SRS would at least partially overlap in the symbol in the selected first subframe, scale transmission powers of the first SRS and the at least one other SRS equally to comply with the maximum power. The WTRU is configured to transmit, in accordance with the scaled transmission powers, the first SRS in the selected subframe and the at least one other SRS.
