Abstract:
Methods of producing core layers with a variable basis weight across a width of the core layer are described. The core layers can be used in vehicle headliners to permit proper side air bag deployment in the vehicles during crashes. Systems and various materials used to produce the core layers are also described.
Abstract:
Techniques for co-existence between wireless Radio Access Technologies (RATs) are disclosed. During an active period of a Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) communication pattern, a first signal may be transmitted during a first subframe and a second signal may be transmitted during a second subframe, while during an inactive period the first signal may be transmitted during the first subframe and the second signal may be omitted during the second subframe. Retransmission of one or more packets may take place over a subset of less than all retransmission opportunities based on the DTX communication pattern. A Secondary Cell (SCell) may be reconfigured as the Primary Cell (PCell) and the PCell may be reconfigured as the SCell for one or more access terminals based on a load balancing condition or a channel selection condition.
Abstract:
Aspects described herein generally relate to communicating between a user equipment (UE) and a cell using frequency division duplexing (FDD) to separate an uplink frequency band and a downlink frequency band with the cell. An indicator can be transmitted from the cell and received by the UE to implement time division duplexing (TDD) on the uplink frequency band. Based at least in part on the indicator, communicating between the UE and the cell can include separating the uplink frequency band into a plurality of downlink subframes for receiving downlink communications from the cell and a plurality of uplink subframes for transmitting uplink communications to the cell.
Abstract:
The torque sensor has a body. A first gastight chamber is defined at least partly by the body. A pressure sensor is connected with the gastight chamber for measuring the pressure in the gastight chamber. A pressure to torque converter is connected to the pressure sensor. The gastight chamber is arranged to change its volume by deformation of the body when the body is subjected to a torque wherein the volume change causes a change of pressure of the enclosed gas in the gastight chamber.

Abstract:
A hybrid thermoelectric-ejector active cooling system having an increased Coefficient of Performance (COP) when compared to typical thermoelectric cooling modules. A thermoelectric cooling module is integrated with an ejector cooling device so that heat from the thermoelectric cooling module is rejected to a high temperature evaporator of the ejector cooling device. This provides for a total COP greater than the sum of the COPs of the thermoelectric cooling module and ejector cooling device individually. For example, given 1 unit input power into the thermoelectric cooling module, the heat received by the cold side of the thermoelectric cooling module would be COPTEC×1; and the energy rejected by the hot side of the thermoelectric cooling module and to drive the ejector cooling device would be COPTEC+1. Thus, the cooling received by the low temperature evaporator of the ejector cooling device is COPEJ×(COPTEC+1); and therefore total COPTE-Ej-AC is COPEj+COPTEC+COPEj×COPTEC. In addition, the hybrid thermoelectric ejector active cooling system will be able to operate at higher temperature differentials than standalone thermoelectric cooling devices.
Abstract:
A system and method for uplink channel estimation for a software defined radio is disclosed. The method comprises dividing an allocated bandwidth for a received signal on the uplink channel into N segments. The uplink channel estimation is processed for each of the N segments as a separate process. The uplink channel estimation includes pre-processing each of the N segments of the received signal; Wiener filtering the pre-processed segments of the received signal in the frequency domain; and Wiener filtering each of the frequency filtered segments in the time domain to determine a channel estimate for each of the N segments for use in equalizing the received signal.
