  • Publication number: 20210067262
    Abstract: Various examples with respect to synchronization signal block (SSB) raster shift in mobile communications are described. A processor of a user equipment (UE) performs an initial cell search to identify a cell among one or more cells of a wireless communication system. The processor then camps on the identified cell. In performing the initial cell search, the processor scans through a plurality of SSB entries for frequency bands below 3 GHz with a SSB raster spacing and a SSB raster offset frequency that support sub-carrier spacing (SCS) spaced channel raster and 100 kHz channel raster for both 15 kHz SCS and 30 kHz SCS. A minimum channel bandwidth at 5 MHz or higher for 15 kHz SCS or at 10 MHz or higher for 30 kHz SCS is supported. The SSB raster spacing is a common multiple of 15 kHz and 100 kHz. The SSB raster offset frequency for 100 kHz channel raster is a multiple of 30 kHz plus/minus 10 kHz.

  • Patent number: 10250065
    Abstract: A wireless charging circuit coupled to an oscillation unit. The wireless charging circuit includes a balun unit, a higher-order filter unit and a differential unit. The balun unit is coupled to the oscillation unit. The higher-order filter unit is coupled to the balun unit. The differential unit is coupled to the higher-order filter unit. The differential unit is coupled to a transmission coil. The oscillation unit issues a differential signal to the balun unit, and then the balun unit converts the differential signal into a converted signal to be transmitted to the higher-order filter unit. The higher-order filter unit filters the converted signal to output a filtered signal to the differential unit. The differential unit converts the filtered signal into a differential output signal to be outputted by the transmission coil.

  • Patent number: 10126845
    Abstract: A wireless input device is provided. The wireless input device includes a rechargeable wireless mouse, a wireless receiver and a charging pad. The charging pad includes a wireless power transmitting module and a charging control circuit. The charging control circuit is electrically connected to the wireless power transmitting module. The charging control circuit correspondingly activates the wireless power transmitting module to wirelessly output the electromagnetic power according to an activation signal provided by the wireless receiver. The charging pad receives the activation signal when the wireless receiver is connected to the charging pad. When the charging pad is not connected to the wireless receiver, the charging control circuit stops the wireless power transmitting module from wirelessly outputting the electromagnetic power. Accordingly, the charging pad of the present invention can avoid damage resulting from the abnormal charging so as to save power.
