    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for measuring an optical azimuth angle φO of a substrate relative to a plane of detection in scatterometry tools are disclosed. A grating target on a stage of a scatterometry tool may be illuminated and positions of the resulting diffraction orders may be observed. The optical azimuth angle may be determined from the positions of the diffraction orders. Alternatively, polarization-dependent signals of radiation scattered from a line grating may be measured for equal and opposite polarization angles +A and −A. A combination signal may be computed from the polarization-dependent signals obtained at +A and −A and a property of the combination signal may be calculated for several mechanical Azimuth angles φM. A relationship between the optical azimuth angle φO and the mechanical azimuth angle φM may be determined from a behavior of the property as a function of mechanical azimuth angle φM.

    Abstract: The specification and drawings present a new method, apparatus and software related product (e.g., a computer readable memory) for implementing enhanced and flexible radio aperiodic measurements, e.g., on an unlicensed band in LTE wireless systems and providing effective and timely reporting. A UE may receive from a wireless network an aperiodic measurement request to measure a special measurement object (e.g., a neighbor cell) specified in the aperiodic measurement request, e.g., in an unlicensed band. In response to the aperiodic measurement request, the UE may perform the measurement of the special management object until a further instruction from the wireless network or for a determined period of time. Inter-frequency measurements may be performed during the measurement gap determined from the aperiodic measurement request.
