Abstract:
A memory system includes a status circuit having a common status node electrically connected to a respective status pad of each of a plurality of memory chips. The memory system also includes a plurality of resistors disposed within the status circuit to define a voltage divider network for generating different voltage levels at the common status node. Each of the different voltage levels indicates a particular operational state combination of the plurality of memory chips. Also, each of the plurality of memory chips is either in a first operational state or a second operational state. Additionally, the different voltage levels are distributed within a voltage range extending from a power supply voltage level to a reference ground voltage level.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a mobile station apparatus. The mobile station apparatus comprises an RF transmitting/receiving module, a display module, a memory comprising an RSSI database, and a control program. When the mobile station apparatus moves along a path comprising plural candidates of communication locations, the control program records a plurality of RSSIs, which are received by the RF transmitting/receiving module from the candidates along the communication locations, and at least one path parameter in the RSSI database, and then according to a predetermined display algorithm, the control program controls the display module to display at least one recorded RSSI and the corresponding path parameter as a reference, based on which the mobile station apparatus selects a communication location candidate for providing the mobile communication service.
Abstract:
A data storage device includes a memory and a controller. The controller is configured to scramble data using a scramble key to produce scrambled data and to encode the scramble key to produce an encoded scramble key. The controller is further configured to store the encoded scramble key and the scrambled data to the memory.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure control whether or not certain protocol stack operation are performed in a hardware (HW) protocol stack accelerator based on ARQ/HARQ re-transmission rate. Latency penalties associated with using the HW accelerator are typically higher than the data movement overhead when this data does not need to be processed by the HW accelerator, such as when a re-transmission error occurs. According to certain embodiments, the HW accelerator is activated if the ARQ/HARQ re-transmission rate is below a threshold value. Otherwise, if the ARQ/HARQ re-transmission rate is above a threshold, at least a portion of the HW accelerator may be de-activated, which may reduce overhead associated with moving data between the protocol stack and the HW accelerator.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for bypassing the DCD/UCD message reception step in the network entry procedure in WiMAX systems by using DCD/UCD messages that are stored in a nonvolatile memory inside a mobile station.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods for improving a service flow of a mobile device based upon a different level of its available battery power. If the battery power availability is below a predefined threshold, then one or more power-saving techniques can be triggered that increase an air time of the mobile device and provide savings of power consumption at different rates using a different level of clock rate.

Abstract:
A radiation detection method and apparatus thereof for estimating radiation power received by the mobile station. The locations of nearby base stations and the mobile station are obtained from the broadcast system messages and the location service provided by the service provider, and based on the location information, the radiation power is estimated according to the distances between the base stations and the mobile station. In addition, the radiation estimation process also utilizes the radiation power of monitored base stations constantly measured by the mobile station for cell selection to determine the effects of interference. Based on a preset safety value and the estimated radiation power, the radiation detection device of the present invention automatically issues an alert when entering a high radiation environment.
Abstract:
An aliasing module is defined and connected to receive a first bit stream to be transmitted over a data bus from a memory to an external controller of the memory. The aliasing module is defined and connected to alias the first bit stream as a second bit stream and transmit the second bit stream over the data bus in lieu of the first bit stream. A de-aliasing module is defined and connected to receive the second bit stream from the data bus at the external controller. The de-aliasing module is defined and connected to de-alias the received second bit stream back to the first bit stream and provide the first bit stream to the external controller for processing.
