Abstract:
A semiconductor device and method of fabrication are disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a liner composed of a high-K material. The liner has a portion separating a sidewall spacer from a gate and a portion separating the sidewall spacer from a layer of semiconductor material. The liner functions as an etch stop during formation of the sidewall spacer. The liner is removable by an etch process that has substantially no reaction with an isolation region formed in the layer of semiconductor material.

Abstract:
A method and a system to provide daisy chain distribution in data centers are provided. A node identification module identifies three or more data nodes of a plurality of data nodes. The identification of three or more data nodes indicates that the respective data nodes are to receive a copy of a data file. A connection creation module to, using one or more processors, create communication connections between the three or more data nodes. The communication connections form a daisy chain beginning at a seeder data node of the three or more data nodes and ending at a terminal data node of the three or more data nodes.
Abstract:
The present disclosure discloses a method and a device for transmitting data. The method includes: a UE determining, according to a preset rule, whether to transmit PUCCH and/or PUSCH and/or an SRS or not on a last symbol of a current subframe; the UE determining the PUCCH and/or the PUSCH to be transmitted on the current subframe according to availability of the last symbol of the current subframe for transmitting the PUCCH and/or the PUSCH; and the UE transmitting the PUCCH and/or the PUSCH on the current subframe and/or transmitting the SRS on the last symbol of the current subframe. In virtue of the present disclosure, it can be realized that a plurality of types of physical uplink signals/channels are simultaneously transmitted.
Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for sending Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledge (HARQ-ACK) information. The method includes: when a terminal employs a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) format 3 to transmit HARQ-ACK information and the HARQ-ACK information is transmitted over a uplink physical shared channel (PUSCH), determining the number of downlink subframes for serving cells to feed back the HARQ-ACK information; determining the number of encoded modulated symbols required for sending the HARQ-ACK information according to the determined number of downlink subframes; and mapping the HARQ-ACK information to be sent to the PUSCH of a specified uplink subframe according to the number of encoded modulated symbols and sending the HARQ-ACK information. The technical solutions provided by the disclosure are applied to improve the performance of the HARQ-ACK information, and thus improve the data performance.
Abstract:
A base station, a terminal, a system and methods for performing data transmission in a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system are disclosed. One of the methods includes: the base station sending an uplink scheduling grant signaling to the terminal on a carrier m, and after receiving uplink data sent by the terminal through a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) on a carrier n, the base station sending an ACK/NACK feedback signaling corresponding to the PUSCH to the terminal on the carrier m; wherein, m≠n; a timing relationship between a subframe by which the base station sends the uplink scheduling grant signaling and/or the ACK/NACK feedback signaling and a subframe where the PUSCH is located is identical with a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) timing relationship corresponding to an uplink/downlink configuration of the carrier m or the carrier n.
Abstract:
A method for sending a physical broadcast channel in the TDD system is disclosed, which is: a signal of a physical broadcast channel is not sent in a pilot position, and the signal of the physical broadcast channel is sent on 4 OFDM symbols of the first subframe of one radio frame. Through the present invention, the extension requirement of the physical broadcast channel capacity in the TDD can be met, and the system complexity is reduced due to the normal cyclic prefix and extended prefix using the same sending method.
