Abstract: Systems and methods for independently managing wireless transmission by individual spectrum access systems in a radio frequency spectrum shared by a plurality of spectrum access systems. An example method includes: receiving, by the spectrum access system, an interference budget from a sensor; determining, by the spectrum access system, secondary users managed by the spectrum access system in a radio frequency spectrum shared by a plurality of spectrum access systems; managing a move list for the spectrum access system independently of the other spectrum access systems in an absence of exchange of spectrum grant information with the other spectrum access systems; and determining the move list for the spectrum access system from a first moment and a second moment of an aggregate interference distribution such that the spectrum access system provides grants to its secondary users in a dynamic protection area of the spectrum access system.

Abstract: A robust wireless communications network is deployed by retrofitting spatially distributed light sockets with integrated light/communicator modules. Each light/communicator module comprises an electric lamp and a communicator unit, the communicator unit having an RF transceiver, an antenna, and a Broadband processor for communicating with other nodes in the wireless communication network, using a suitable mesh network protocol. A power conversion unit is optionally provided in each integrated light/communicator module so that the individual components of the module may operate on the standard light socket power or selectably from other power sources.

Abstract: A faux leather biomaterial is disclosed. It may be made from shell seafood waste and coffee grounds with the aim to work as a sustainable alternative instead of prior art faux and animal leathers.

Abstract: An apparatus has a reference magnetic tunnel junction with a high aspect ratio including a reference layer with magnetization along a minor axis and a storage layer with magnetization along a major axis. The storage layer magnetization is substantially perpendicular to the magnetization along the minor axis. The magnetization orientation between the minor axis and the major axis is maintained by shape anisotropy caused by the high aspect ratio.

Individual bits of data from the serial input bit stream are serially written into individual magnetic logic units without buffering the serial input bit stream between the input node and the individual magnetic logic units. Individual bits of data from individual magnetic logic units are serially read to produce a serial output bit stream on an output node without buffering the serial output bit stream between the individual magnetic logic units and the output node.
