  • Publication number: 20190028854
    Abstract: A multicast transmission method is disclosed. A base station of a first cell obtains first multicast resource information of at least one second cell, where the base station of the first cell is different from a base station of each second cell; and the base station of the first cell sends second multicast resource information to user equipment, where the second multicast resource information is used to indicate a resource configuration used by each second cell to transmit multicast service data. The base station of the first cell actively sends obtained multicast resource information to the user equipment in a broadcast manner. In this way, the base station of the first cell does not need to configure, in a unicast manner for each user equipment, a resource location for sending/reading the multicast service data of each second cell, thereby reducing signaling overheads.

  • Publication number: 20190025392
    Abstract: A method uses an artificial neural network (ANN) to automatically produce a magnetic resonance (MR) pulse sequence. A first MR signal corresponding to a first tissue and a second MR signal corresponding to a second tissue are identified. An RF pulse to be applied to the first and second tissues is selected. Based on at least the first MR signal, the second MR signal, and the RF pulse, an updated first MR signal and an updated second MR signal are determined. A difference is computed between the updated first MR signal and the updated second MR signal. The difference is added to an accumulated difference. The RF pulse selecting, updated first and second MR signal determination, difference computation and adding are repeated. The ANN is controlled to use reinforcement learning to select the MR imaging pulse sequence based, at least in part, on the accumulated difference.
