Abstract:
A method and apparatus for simultaneously communicating on at least two carrier frequencies, of which at least one carrier frequency is a licensed band and at least one carrier frequency is an unlicensed band are provided. The method includes broadcasting an operating status of the unlicensed band to a receiver device; collecting feedback data regarding channel conditions from the receiver device for both the licensed band and unlicensed band; determining, when a bandwidth request is received from the receiver device, whether to use the unlicensed band based on the channel conditions; transmitting an unlicensed band scheduling indication to the receiver device; and communicating with the receiver device using both the licensed band and the unlicensed band according to the transmitted unlicensed band scheduling indication.
Abstract:
Coating compositions are disclosed that include an alkoxide of the general formula RxM(OR′)z-x where R is an organic radical, M is silicon, aluminum, titanium, and/or zirconium, each R′ is independently an alkyl radical, z is the valence of M, and x is a number less than z and may be zero. The coating composition is cationically curable. Also disclosed are articles at least partially coated with a hard coat deposited from such a coating composition, methods for depositing a hard coat on at least a portion of a plastic substrate, and methods for improving the adhesion and abrasion resistance of a substrate.
Abstract:
Liquid compositions are disclosed that include a photocatalytic material and a hydrophilic binder that includes an essentially completely hydrolyzed organosilicate. Also disclosed are methods of making such compositions, methods of coating a substrate with a hydrophilic composition, and substrates coated with such compositions. The compositions may, for example, be embodied as stable one-pack compositions.
Abstract:
Disclosed are tinted, abrasion resistant coating compositions comprising polymer-enclosed color-imparting particles. Also disclosed are methods for making such a composition and substrates at least partially coated with a hard coat deposited from such a composition.

Abstract:
A hard coat composition comprising a cationic acrylic polymer is disclosed. The hard coat is suitable for application to a substrate, and can be used without an adhesive promoting primer.
Abstract:
Multi-layer coatings are disclosed that include (a) a first layer deposited from at least one composition that includes a polymeric composition, and (b) a second layer applied over at least a portion of the first layer in which the second layer is deposited from at least one liquid composition that includes (i) a photocatalytic material, and (ii) a binder that is hydrophilic and comprises an essentially completely hydrolyzed organosilicate. Also disclosed are substrates coated with such multi-layer coatings, methods of applying such multi-layer coatings to a substrate and methods of making a painted surface easy-to-clean.
Abstract:
A hard coat composition comprising an acid functional organosiloxane polyol wherein at least some of the acid functionality has been neutralized is disclosed. The hard coat is suitable for application to a substrate, and can be used without an adhesive promoting primer.

Abstract:
A resource allocation method of a base station in a wireless communication system based on a radio frame including a plurality of subframes including at least one first-type subframe and at least one second-type subframe is provided. The method includes generating first-type downlink control information including resource allocation information on the first-type subframe, generating second-type downlink control information including resource allocation information on the second-type subframe, and transmitting the first-type subframe including the first-type downlink control information and the second-type downlink control information, wherein the second-type subframe is transmitted with a lower transmit power than the transmit power of the first-type subframe.
