Abstract:
Disclosed are a polylactic acid block copolymer and a preparation method thereof. The polylactic acid block copolymer comprises block A and block B, and is presented as B-b-A-b-B triblock structure, wherein the block A is a cyclic aromatic polyester oligomer block, and the block B is a polylactic acid block. The polylactic acid block copolymer is obtained by ring-opening copolymerization of a cyclic aromatic polyester oligomer and a lactide. Disclosed are another polylactic acid block copolymer and a preparation method thereof. The polylactic acid block copolymer comprises block A and block B, and is presented as B-b-A-b-B triblock structure, wherein the block A is an aromatic polyester block with two hydroxyl end groups, and the block B is a polylactic acid block. The polylactic acid block copolymer is obtained by ring-opening copolymerization of an aromatic polyester with two hydroxyl end groups and a lactide.

Abstract:
A wireless telephony communications system includes at least one macro cell for communicating both voice and data with a mobile communications device across a first wireless link and at least one micro cell for communicating data with the mobile communications device across a second wireless communication link. Each micro cell communicates signaling information through the macro cell via a wireless link to a control element that manages the micro cells. Using a wireless link to communicate signaling between each micro cell and the control element in the UMTS system eliminates the need for a wired back haul link, thereby reducing access costs.
Abstract:
A method, system and device are provided for avoiding in-device coexistence interference between different radio technologies deployed in adjacent bands on the same device by controlling and separating the LTE signaling and the non-LTE signaling using dedicated time intervals to separate LTE signaling from non-LTE signaling. In addition, coexistence mode handover procedures are provided which use threshold-based triggering events to avoid coexistence interference and to prevent ping-pong effects by establishing a “keeping time” parameter so that a non-interfering network node does not switch back to an interfering network node after handoff. Coexistence interference is also avoided by providing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) mechanism which accounts for coexistence interference by providing a fixed or variable on-interval parameter and an activity parameter indicating whether non-LTE activity is present to maximize a time interval for non-LTE devices without interference from LTE activity on the same device.
Abstract:
A mobile station receives a downlink control structure in a first carrier, where the downlink control structure indicates that control information for the mobile station is on a second, different carrier. The mobile station decodes the control information in the second carrier, where the control information specifies resource allocation of a wireless link for the mobile station. More specifically, according to some implementations, the control channel in the first carrier specifies the resource allocation for an extended control channel in the second carrier, where the extended control channel specifies the resource allocation for traffic data of a wireless link for the mobile station.
Abstract:
A method for providing mosaic channels among multiple client devices is provided. Wherein, the multiple client devices are connected via a data communication network so as to be able to communicate data with each other. At the side of a client device, which is instructed to change to a mosaic channel while the other client device are receiving channel programs from at least one channel program server via a communication for channel programs, the method comprises the steps of receiving channel information of the channel programs from at least one of the other client devices via the communication network for channel programs; and generating a mosaic channel that comprises channel cells for presenting the channel information.
