  • Patent number: 11977423
    Abstract: Methods and systems for thermal management of hardware resources that may be used to provide computer implemented services are disclosed. The disclosed thermal management method and systems may improve the likelihood of data processing systems providing desired computer implemented services by improving the thermal management of the hardware resources without impairment of storage devices. To improve the likelihood of the computer implemented services being provided, the systems may proactively identify whether storage devices subject to impairment due to dynamic motion are present. If such storage devices are present, then the system may automatically take action to reduce the likelihood of the storage devices being subject to dynamic motion sufficient to impair their operation.

  • Patent number: 11979343
    Abstract: This application discloses a method including a transmit end that generates and sends a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU), and a receive end that receives the PPDU and parses the PPDU. An enhanced directional multi-gigabit (EDMG) modulation field in the PPDU includes a channel estimation field (CEF), the CEF includes a CEF sequence, and a length of the CEF sequence is m, where m is determined based on a quantity of bonding channels and a quantity of subcarriers included on a channel. When a discrete Fourier transform-spread-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM) technology is introduced into a 60 GHz WLAN standard, an applied CEF sequence included in a CEF can be determined, and DFT-S-OFDM transmission is further performed by using the CEF sequence. In this way, a PAPR of a WLAN system can be reduced while frequency division multiplexing for a plurality of users is supported.
