    摘要: The exemplary embodiments of this invention provide, in one aspect thereof, a method that includes sending a mode switch command from a network access node to a first node of a pair of nodes operating in a device-to-device (D2D) communication mode. The method further includes receiving at least one acknowledgment of the reception of the mode switch command at the network access node, where the at least one acknowledgment is received from a second node of the pair of nodes. In one embodiment the mode switch command is an explicit mode switch command sent using layer 1 (L1) signaling to a master node of the pair of nodes. In another embodiment the mode switch command is an implicit mode switch command that includes a downlink grant to schedule the first node in the network, where the downlink grant contains a radio network identifier (RNTI) of the first node of the pair of nodes, and where the acknowledgment of the reception of the mode switch command is received from the second node of the pair of nodes and also from the first node of the pair of nodes. The exemplary embodiments also encompass user devices, such as mobile phones, that operate in the D2D mode in conjunction with the network access node.

    摘要: Techniques for optimizing the sensitivity of spectroscopic measurement techniques with respect to certain profile variables by selecting desired measurement angles since the measurement sensitivity to each variable depends, at least in part, on the measurement angles of an incident beam. The selected desired set of measurement angles includes both an azimuth angle and a polar angle. Optimizing the sensitivity of spectroscopic measurement techniques can also reduce or eliminates measurement correlation among variable to be measured.

    摘要: A polarized sample beam of broadband radiation is focused onto the surface of a sample and the radiation modified by the sample is collected by means of a mirror system in different planes of incidence. The sample beam focused to the sample has a multitude of polarization states. The modified radiation is analyzed with respect to a polarization plane to provide a polarimetric spectrum. Thickness and refractive information may then be derived from the spectrum. Preferably the polarization of the sample beam is altered only by the focusing and the sample, and the analyzing is done with respect to a fixed polarization plane. In the preferred embodiment, the focusing of the sample beam and the collection of the modified radiation are repeated employing two different apertures to detect the presence or absence of a birefringence axis in the sample. In another preferred embodiment, the above-described technique may be combined with ellipsometry for determining the thicknesses and refractive indices of thin films.
