Abstract: A packing assembly for display modules is disclosed. In one embodiment, the packing assembly includes a plurality of packing modules stacked on one another and configured to receive a plurality of display modules, each packing module comprising a seating unit where the display module is seated and a first rim unit that surrounds at least a portion of each of the display modules and a plurality of protection members covering the circuit unit to prevent the panel from being damaged by a collision between a circuit unit of a display module and a panel of another display module. According to one embodiment, transportation costs are reduced by loading and transporting more display modules in a given packing assembly.

Abstract: A packing assembly for display modules is disclosed. The packing assembly includes a plurality of display modules and a plurality of packing modules stacked on top of one another, each packing module comprises: a seating unit where at least one display module is seated and a first frame unit that surrounds at least a portion of the display module. According to one embodiment, the packing assembly can reduce transportation costs of the display modules by increasing the stacking rate of the display modules.

Abstract: Practical transmission power adaptation in multicarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) communications is using either a frequency domain technique or a time domain technique or a combined frequency and time domain technique in response to channel variations. With frequency domain power adaptation, the transmission power is allocated over the N? (1?N??N) strongest subcarriers rather than over all possible N subcarriers, where the strongest subcarriers are understood to exhibit the highest channel gains. A substantially optimal N? can be chosen so that the average bit error rate (BER) is minimized. In the time domain power adaptation technique, transmission power is adapted so that the desired signal strength at the receiver output is maintained at a fixed level.

Abstract: Transmit power adaptation for DS/CDMA systems is disclosed for a CDMA system that utilizes a successive interference cancellation receiver on fading channels. The transmission power is adapted in response to channel variations to achieve an arbitrary power profile for received signal powers at the system base station. That is, the received signal powers are distributed with some factor xi's given as: SRi=SR(l)xi, (i=2,3, . . . , K and xl=1) where K is the number of users and SR(i) is the received signal power of the user having the ith strength, and wherein user strengths are ranked in the order of estimated channel gains. The factor xi gives a measure of the disparity between the received power levels. The channel is estimated at both the transmitter and receiver. In one embodiment, the factors, xi, for distributing the signal powers are selected such that the average BER for each user is minimized.

Abstract: High contrast alignment marks that can be flexibly located on a semiconductor wafer are disclosed. The wafer has a first layer and a second layer. The first layer has a light-dark intensity and a reflectivity. The second layer is over the first layer, and has a light-dark intensity substantially lighter than that of the first layer, and a higher reflectivity than that of the first layer. The first layer may be patterned to further darken it. The second layer contrasts visibly to the first layer, and is patterned to form at least one or more alignment marks within the second layer. The first layer may be a metallization layer, such as titanium nitride, whereas the second layer may be a metallization layer, such as aluminum or copper.

Abstract: The drying system includes an air compressor, a compressed air storage tank, a pressure reducing device, a manifold, a heat device, two delivering devices, an electromagnetic control device and a plurality of drying apparatuses. The control device actuates the delivering devices to let out hot and cool air alternatively. Each of the drying apparatuses includes a housing with a top portion, an intermediate portion and a base portion. An air buffer chamber is supplied by the delivering devices, is disposed in the base portion of the housing. A plurality of air distributing devices is respectively disposed in the top portion, the intermediate portion and the base portion. The air buffer chamber has a plurality of tubes with branches respectively and correspondingly connected to the air distributing members. A water guiding device is disposed on top of the base portion of the housing. The housing also has a plurality of air outlets to let out regulated air with uniform pressure.

Abstract: A drying apparatus includes a vertical housing having a generally horizontal base portion, a generally vertical intermediate portion and a generally horizontal top portion which together define a drying space therebetween. The user can stand on the base portion of the housing in the drying space. The base portion, the intermediate portion and the top portion of the housing are each equipped with a hot-air blowing unit which consists of a fan and a heating element. A control switch unit can selectively activate some or all of the fans and the heating elements so as to blow hot or cold air over the hair and/or the upper part and/or the lower part of the body of the user. A water guiding device guides the water in the upper surface of the base portion of the housing to flow from the user to one or more selected places so as to prevent downward flowing water from damaging the hot-air blowing unit in the base portion.
