Abstract: The location of a user equipment (UE) is determined at a scheduled location time based on location measurements for the UE received from one or more other entities. The location measurements are obtained at a plurality of times based on the scheduled location time. An uncertainty of the location that indicates a difference between the location and an actual location of the UE at the scheduled location time is determined and the location and the uncertainty of the location are sent to a requesting entity. The uncertainty of the location is based on a location uncertainty and a time uncertainty relative to the scheduled location time, which are combined into a single location uncertainty.

Abstract: A method may include coupling a device to a host through a connector, receiving, by a host controller, a request for boost power from the device, determining, by the host controller, an amount of surplus power available from one or more power sources arranged to provide power to the device through the connector, and allocating at least a portion of the surplus power to the device as boost power. The method may further include negotiating an amount of the boost power based on the amount of surplus power available from the one or more power sources. The method may further include monitoring a power consumption of the device, and reducing a total power allocation to the device based on the power consumption of the device.

Abstract: A device capable of self-detecting and self-allocating additional power and associated method are disclosed. The device includes a first module to route current from first power pins to a voltage rail having the first voltage level. The device includes a second module coupled to second power pins associated with a second voltage level. The second module routes current from the second power pins to the voltage rail having the first voltage level via a connecting voltage rail.

Based on the detection, the method includes calculating a total amount of available additional power, repurposing the unused power pins as actively used power pins, and updating a power budget value based on the total amount of available additional power. The device may dynamically allocate power to accelerators based on a power allocation table and the power budget value.

The system includes a first and second cable segments, and a tensioning device. Each cable segment has a first end and a second end, mounted to one of the headgear and the bodywear member respectively. The first ends are laterally inboard and vertically spaced from the second ends. During pivoting of the head in a first direction, the first cable segment changes orientation towards vertical and the second cable segment changes orientation towards horizontal, and during pivoting movement of the head in a second direction. The tensioning device increases tension in any cable segment that changes orientation towards vertical, and reduces tension in any cable segment that changes orientation towards horizontal.
