摘要:
A system and method for mapping a combined frequency division duplexing (FDD) Time Division Multiplexing (TDM)/Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) downlink subframe for use with half-duplex and full-duplex terminals in a communication system. Embodiments of the downlink subframe vary Forward Error Correction (FEC) types for a given modulation scheme as well as support the implementation of a smart antennae at a base station in the communication system. Embodiments of the system are also used in a TDD communication system to support the implementation of smart antennae. A scheduling algorithm allows TDM and TDMA portions of a downlink to efficiently co-exist in the same downlink subframe and simultaneously support full and half-duplex terminals. The algorithm further allows the TDM of multiple terminals in a TDMA burst to minimize the number of map entries in a downlink map. The algorithm limits the number of downlink map entries to not exceed 2n+1, where n is the number of DL PHY modes (modulation/FEC combinations) employed by the communication system.

In an electronic device, a diode and a resistive memory device are connected in series. The diode may take a variety of forms, including oxide or silicon layers, and one of the layers of the diode may make up a layer of the resistive memory device which is in series with that diode.

A process is provided that includes forming a first mask on an underlying layer, where the mask has two adjacent portions with an open gap therebetween, and depositing a second mask material within the open gap and at an inclined angle with respect to an upper surface of the underlying layer to form a second mask. In another implementation, a process is provided that includes forming a first mask on an underlying layer, where the mask has a pattern that includes an open gap, and depositing a second mask material within the open gap to form a second mask, where particles of the second mask material are directed in parallel or substantially in parallel to a line at an inclined angle with respect to an upper surface of the underlying layer.

Systems and methods that facilitate improved programming memory cells in a nonvolatile memory (e.g., flash memory) are presented. An optimized voltage component can facilitate supplying respective voltages to a source, drain, and gate associated with a memory cell during operations, such as programming operations. The optimized voltage component can facilitate supplying a predetermined source bitline voltage to a memory cell during programming of the cell to facilitate reducing leakage currents associated with the bitlines, which can improve programming of the memory cell, and to facilitate reducing the programming current, which can result in power efficient programming and improved programming speed.

The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that may receive wireless broadcast signals from a number of different base stations or transmitters. The device alternates its operation between a low-power mode and a higher-power mode to conserve battery power. The length of time the device remains in the sleep mode is its sleep interval. The sleep interval is a function of two components. One component is set by the wireless broadcast network and the other component is set by the carrier that provisions the mobile communications device. When the device awakens from the sleep mode, it can check the status of any notification messages. If there are any updates, then it will process them. If there are no updates, then it will return to the low-power mode.

Methods and apparatus for maintaining program-guide records comprises the steps of requesting a program-guide index, receiving the program-guide index, and determining whether there exists any new program-guide record based on the received program-guide index. The method further comprises requesting a new program-guide record and receiving the program-guide record. In one aspect, a method for maintaining program-guide records comprises the steps of receiving a program-guide update indication, and determining any new program-guide record based on the received program-guide update indication. The method further comprises requesting an updated program-guide record, receiving the updated program-guide record, and updating the program-guide records.
