Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems for processing high efficiency SIGB (HE-SIGB) symbols and extracting resource unit (RU) information in down link orthogonal frequency division multiple access (DL-OFDMA) and multi-user multiple input multiple output (DL-MUMIMO) communication. An HE-SIGB symbol is processed based on an RU size mapping table. An RU counter is used to process entries in the RU size mapping table and determine the RU size and starting tone index of the intended RU. The RU parameters extracted from the HE-SIGB symbol are used to decode data symbols in the DL-OFDMA or DL-MUMIMO packet. Pilot tone indices of the intended User block and adjacent pilot tone indices are determined for improved carrier phase error estimation.

Abstract: A radio frequency communication device comprising: a conductive loop being electrically connected to an integrated circuit arrangement; and a pair of opposing conductors extending away from the conductive loop and the integrated circuit arrangement; wherein at least a portion of the pair of opposing conductors or the conductive loop is frangible.

Abstract: An access control system comprising a first detector, a second detector, and a processor. The first detector is operable to detect presence of a subject in proximity of the access control system. The second detector operable to detect an object identifier associated with an object carried by the subject in proximity of the access control system. The processor is operably connected with the first detector and the second detector. The processor is operable to receive, from the first detector, a first signal indicative of the detection of the presence of the subject, and receive, from the second detector, a second signal containing the detected object identifier. During operation, the processor is arranged to determine that an access event has occurred when it receives both the first signal and the second signal.

Abstract: Techniques for controlling RF output of portable devices are described. In an example, an indication of a mode of a portable device is received. The mode is based on an inclination of the portable device. The inclination is measured in reference to a screen of the portable device and a horizontal surface. Based on the mode, an RF power level defined for the mode is determined. The RF power output of the portable device is controlled based on the RF power level.
