  • Patent number: 10667151
    Abstract: A coverage solution recommendation tool may generate prioritized lists of coverage solutions for resolving a network coverage problem at a location. The tool may obtain network parameters of a wireless communication network that provides services to user devices at the location. The tool may further acquire device parameters of the user devices used at the location, as well as collect environment parameters associated with the location. The environment parameters may affect whether a wireless telecommunication carrier is able to leverage additional coverage solutions to provide services at the location. Accordingly, the coverage solution tool may generate a prioritized list of coverage solutions for resolving the network coverage problem based on the parameters.

  • Publication number: 20200121375
    Abstract: An improved method of fusing the sacroiliac joint and tools for accomplishing the same is disclosed. In one embodiment, the present invention is a method that uses an intra-articular joint fusion device for connecting the sacrum and ilium that includes creating a first incision in the patient's skin proximal to the patient's sacroiliac joint, inserting a surgical channel tool into the incision from the patient's posterior, creating a void in the sacroiliac joint, inserting a fusion implant into the void, the fusion implant having at least one fixation element for engagement with bone tissue in the articular surfaces of the sacrum and the ilium, and driving the fusion implant into the void such that the at least one fixation element engages with bone tissue in an articular surface of at least one of the sacrum and ilium, and the fusion implant fixes relative positions of the sacrum and ilium.

  • Publication number: 20190378801
    Abstract: A component carrier including i) an electronic component embedded in the component carrier, ii) an antenna structure arranged at a region of a first main surface of the component carrier, iii) a shielding structure made of an electrically conductive material and configured for shielding electromagnetic radiation from propagating between the antenna structure and the electronic component. Hereby, the shielding structure is arranged at least partially between the antenna structure and the electronic component. Furthermore, the component carrier includes an electrically conductive structure to electrically connect the electronic component and the antenna structure through the shielding structure. The shielding structure is non-perforated at least in a plane between the antenna structure and the electronic component.
