  • Publication number: 20240114549
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device (WCD) may communicate, during a time period, with a peripheral device via a wireless connection, the wireless connection using a first channel for communication. The WCD may monitor a second channel during a concurrency time of the wireless connection, the second channel using a channel availability check (CAC) to obtain resources for communicating, and transmitting an indication to switch to the second channel for communication. In some aspects, the WCD may communicate with low-latency requirements. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Publication number: 20190134337
    Abstract: A forehead support for a mask assembly includes a frame connector provided to a mask frame, a forehead cushion support movably mounted to the frame connector for generally linear movement between retracted and extended positions with respect to the frame connector, and an adjustment knob movably mounted to the frame connector and threadably engaged with the forehead cushion support such that turning movement of the adjustment knob causes the forehead cushion support to be moved between the retracted and extended positions. The adjustment knob includes a resilient prong having a ratchet bump. The ratchet bump is adapted to selectively engage a series of ridges provided to the frame connector to provide indexed incremental adjustment.
