  • Patent number: 8842551
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method and apparatus for transmitting/receiving an HARQ failure indication. The method includes: a Node B receives an E-DCH payload from a primary carrier and fails to decode it; the Node B determines whether the condition of transmitting an HARQ failure indication is met, if so, the Node B sets the HARQ failure indication data frame on the primary carrier; and the Node B transmits the HARQ failure indication data frame to a service radio network controller on a transmission bearer corresponding to the primary carrier. The present application realizes a better control over the SIR target value through a carrier-based outer loop power control function.

  • Publication number: 20140281623
    Abstract: A wireless station is disclosed that may quickly enter and/or exit a sleep state and that may reduce power consumption associated with waking up from the sleep state to perform selected low power operations by performing such operations using a set of first instructions stored within an internal memory of the station's processor. If more complex operations such as processing downlink data received from an access point are subsequently desired, then the processor may jump to execution of a set of second instructions stored in an external memory that is coupled to the processor.

  • Patent number: 8835796
    Abstract: A torch tip for a plasma arc torch includes a body having a first end, configured to attach to the torch, and a second end, where an end wall is disposed. A plasma exit orifice is formed in the end wall. At least two castellations are formed in the end wall. At least one slot is disposed between two castellations. Each slot is defined by a first and second castellation wall, and a slot floor. The first castellation wall is opposite the second castellation wall. The torch tip has at least one of the following characteristics: a slope of the slot floor within the at least one slot tapers in an outward radial direction relative to the plasma exit orifice toward the first end of the body, or a distance between the first and second castellation walls along the slot floor increases with distance away from the exit orifice.

  • Patent number: 8837351
    Abstract: A method and UE for setting a Happy bit on an uplink enhanced dedicated control channel are provided. The method includes: a UE transmits an uplink Enhanced Dedicated Channel (E-DCH) on more than one carrier, when criterion 1 and criterion 2 are met, the UE sets the Happy bit which is to be transmitted to a network side as “UNHAPPY” to indicate that the UE doesn't satisfy with the current serving grant. The disclosure optimizes the processing process of power control and resource scheduling, reduces call-drop rate, so that the performances of the UE and the NodeB are optimized.

  • Patent number: 8823014
    Abstract: A method of epitaxial growth of a material on a crystalline substrate includes selecting a substrate having a crystal plane that includes a plurality of terraces with step risers that join adjacent terraces. Each terrace of the plurality or terraces presents a lattice constant that substantially matches a lattice constant of the material, and each step riser presents a step height and offset that is consistent with portions of the material nucleating on adjacent terraces being in substantial crystalline match at the step riser. The method also includes preparing a substrate by exposing the crystal plane; and epitaxially growing the material on the substrate such that the portions of the material nucleating on adjacent terraces merge into a single crystal lattice without defects at the step risers.

  • Patent number: 8826421
    Abstract: According to embodiments of the present invention, a computing device provides a security rules subset of a server-side protection element to a pre-validation component deployed at a client side. The computing device validates the user input based on the security rules. The computing device determines, in response to detecting a user input violation and that a violated security rule has/or has not been provided to the pre-validation component, the user as a first or second class of users. The computing device performs different security protection actions to the first and second class of users. The computing device asynchronously performs a dynamic update to the security rule subset provided to the pre-validation component. The security rule subset is screened from the security rules of the server-side protection means. A policy for screening the security rule subset is selected.

  • Patent number: 8815327
    Abstract: The present invention provides a functionally graded glass/ceramic/glass sandwich system for use in damage resistant, ceramic and orthopedic prosthesis. The functionally graded glass/substrate/glass composite structure comprises an outer residual glass layer, a graded glass-ceramic layer, and a dense interior ceramic. The functionally graded glass/substrate/glass composite structure may further comprise a veneer on an exterior surface. The present invention also provides a method for preparing a functionally graded glass/ceramic/glass sandwich system. A powdered glass-ceramic composition is applied to the accessible surfaces of a presintered zirconia substrate to thereby substantially cover the substrate surfaces. The glass of the composition has a CTE similar to that of the substrate material. The glass-ceramic composition is infiltrated into and densifies the substrate by heating the assembly to at least the sintering temperature of the substrate.
