摘要:
A device includes a first adjustment unit which is configured to adjust a power of a first carrier signal, and a second adjustment unit configured to adjust a power of a second carrier signal. The first adjustment unit is configured to adjust the first carrier signal power based on a maximum allowable imbalance between the first carrier signal power and the second carrier signal power. A method for controlling a transmit power in a user equipment of a radio communications system includes calculating in the user equipment first carrier signal power and a second carrier signal power. The method further includes adjusting in the user equipment the calculated transmit power for at least one out of the first carrier signal and the second carrier signal based on the maximum allowable power imbalance between the first carrier signal power and the second carrier signal power.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for implementing STP flow control in SAS expander devices. SAS expanders are commonly used within a SAS network topology to allow multiple disk drives to connect to multiple host devices. Connections to a SATA HDD are supported using SATA Tunnelling Protocol (STP), which allows SATA traffic to be carried over a SAS network topology. Flow control in a STP connection is applied through a set of special SATA primitives, both for forward and backward flow control. A method is described herein in which STP flow control is supported without the use of a SATA link layer state machine. This allows STP flow control to be terminated on a hop-by-hop basis without knowing the data channel direction or maintaining a SATA link state machine, and while minimizing gate count.

A scatter gather cache system and method are provided, which increase performance of scatter-gather DMA operations by reducing the time taken by the DMA engine to perform a logical to physical address translation. This is done primarily by two-dimensional caching of scatter-gather elements of selected scatter-gather lists using a novel indexing, line swapping and replacement methodology. The cache can also include a context victim table (CVT) for storing scatter-gather list contexts from evicted cache entries and also allows for pre-fetching of SGL elements from Scatter-Gather Lists (SGL). It also provides coherency support when there are multiple instances of the cache accessing the same memory space.

An apparatus is invented for breaking adipose tissue involving delivering ultrasonic energy at a multiplicity of target layers of volume under the skin. The delivered ultrasound is focused on the target layers. One or a plurality of ultrasonic focuses scan the target layers. The scanning ultrasonic focuses break the adipose tissue quantitatively, while other non-adipose tissues are generally not broken. The quantitative breaking process of adipose tissue is performed by quantitative feedback information. Another ultrasound of different frequency helps to move the broken adipose tissue away from the targeted volumes in body circulation. An ultrasound transducer assembly has at least one transducer array of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and at least one transducer of high intensity unfocused ultrasound.

A method of chaining a plurality of engines for a system on chip (SOC) controller device and a SOC controller device are disclosed herein. The method comprises: generating, at an initiator, a super-descriptor for providing instructions to the plurality of engines of the SOC controller; passing the super-descriptor from the initiator to a first engine of the plurality of engines; and executing a portion of the super-descriptor at each of the plurality of engines in series without the intervention of the initiator.
