Abstract:
A mobile terminal for communicating with a network entity includes a RF module for communicating with the network entity, a display for displaying information to a user, a memory for storing data relating to operation of the mobile terminal, and a processor. The processor may be configured to adjust power control step size of the mobile terminal by receiving signal condition data from the network entity, and adjusting the power control step size based on the signal condition data. The mobile terminal may also be configured to operate with 1xEV-DO systems.
Abstract:
A method of mitigating interference in a wireless communication system is disclosed. More specifically, the method comprises receiving at least two signals from a plurality of transmitting ends, estimating interference value based on a predetermined number of the received signals and a current signal, removing interference from the received signals using the estimated interference value, and obtaining desired information from the interference-removed received signal.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to stress-responsive compositions comprising (1) at least one (co)polymer comprising at least one mechanophore comprising at least one thiocarbonylthio functional group or derivative thereof and (2) at least one compound comprising at least one functional group capable of reacting with a free radical, The present disclosure is also directed to articles, coatings, and 3D printing binders comprising such stress-responsive compositions, as well as to processes of imparting the abilities of forming and maintaining protective barriers and mechanical self-healing to such articles, coatings, and 3D printing binders by incorporating such stress-responsive compositions therein.
Abstract:
A calibration system and method for a spark ignition engine of a vehicle involve artificially weighting engine dynamometer data in high engine load regions and using it to generate training data for an artificial neutral network (ANN). A plurality of ANNs are trained using the training data and the plurality of ANNs are then filtered based on their maximum error to obtain a filtered set of trained ANNs. A statistical analysis is performed on each of the filtered set of trained ANNs including determining a set of statistical metrics for each of the filtered set of trained ANNs and then one of the filtered set of trained ANNs having a best combination of error at high engine loads and the set of statistical error metrics is then selected. Finally, an ANN calibration is generated using the selected one of the filtered set of trained ANNs.
Abstract:
A pump control system and a torque control valve are disclosed. In one embodiment, the torque control valve includes a sleeve, a spool disposed in the sleeve, and a piston rod disposed through the spool. The spool has a first recess area, a second recess area, and a third recess area. The first and third recess areas each have a port extending into a central bore of the spool. The piston rod includes a groove orifice feature having a spiral groove and is configured such that a fluid flowing from the port in the first recess area to the port in the third recess area must flow through at least a portion of the spiral groove. The fluid flowing through the spiral groove operates to bias the spool in a direction towards the second axial end of the spool.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting at least one data stream using superposition coding (SPC) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. More specifically, a method includes receiving feedback information from at least two access terminals (ATs), assigning the at least two ATs as a first AT or a second AT based on the feedback information, wherein the first AT has a smaller path loss than that of the second AT, and the second AT has a larger path loss than that of the first AT, channel coding the at least one inputted data stream by a channel coding scheme, modulating the at least one data stream using layered modulation scheme, allocating wireless resources to symbols of the first AT and the second AT, and transmitting the symbols to at least one of the first AT and the second AT according to the allocated wireless resources.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for are provided. The method includes determining that a barcode displayed on a mobile terminal has been scanned, retrieving metadata corresponding to the barcode when the barcode has been scanned, and triggering a context-aware action in the mobile terminal based on the barcode and/or the retrieved metadata.

Abstract:
A method for acquiring positioning information includes receiving downlink data in a plurality of downlink slot frames, and receiving at a mobile terminal within one of the downlink slot frames, broadcasted global positioning system (GPS) orbital description data. The GPS orbital description data information relates to a first group of orbiting satellites within operable range of the base station (BS) providing the broadcasting of the GPS orbital description data. The method further includes performing GPS-based positioning for the mobile terminal based upon signaling received from a second group of a plurality of orbiting satellites in conjunction with the GPS orbital description data, such that at least one of the second group of the plurality of orbiting satellites is the same as some or all of the orbiting satellites of the first group.
Abstract:
A method for determining a location of a mobile station is provided. The mobile station is requested to identify pilot signals monitored by the mobile station. A pilot signal report is received from the mobile station identifying the pilot signals monitored. It is determined that a location of the mobile station cannot be determined according to the identified pilot signals. A resource allocation signal is transmitted to the mobile station. A report is received from at least one assisting station. The report includes information for determining the location of the mobile station. The location of the mobile station is determined according to the information received in the report from the at least one assisting station and the signal received at the base station from the mobile station.
