Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for protection of multi-user (MU) transmission are described herein. An apparatus includes a receiver, a transmitter and a processor. The receiver and the processor detect a trigger frame for an uplink (UL) multi-user (MU) transmission. The processor and the transmitter generate and send a frame in response to the trigger frame and transmit channel availability information for a plurality of channels in response to the trigger frame. The receiver and the processor detect data in a resource unit (RU) of a downlink (DL) MU physical layer (PHY) protocol data unit (PPDU) on one of the plurality of channels. The one of the plurality of channels is based on the transmitted channel availability information.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for channel estimation and precoding based analog channel state information feedback are described. A method, implemented in a network node, includes receiving, from another network node, a sounding frame with a reference sequence that is known to the network node. At least one channel state information (CSI) matrix is estimated using the received sounding frame and the reference sequence to generate at least one estimated CSI matrix, and the at least one generated estimated CSI matrix is applied as at least one precoded estimated CSI matrix to a feedback packet. The feedback packet is sent to the other network node and includes at least one training field carrying the at least one precoded estimated CSI matrix and at least one training field that carries CSI information that is not precoded.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for advanced topology (AT) policy management for direct communication between wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) is described. A WTRU configured to communicate directly with at least one other WTRU in an AT mode of operation includes a memory, a central processing unit and an AT policy unit that is separate from the CPU. The AT policy unit is configured to store at least one AT policy in the memory, activate and de-activate an AT application that runs the AT mode of operation based on the at least one AT policy stored in the memory, receive data from at least one application within the WTRU other than the AT application, and control the at least one application within the WTRU other than the AT application based on the at least one AT policy stored in the memory.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for performing wireless communication in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) configured for multi-radio access technology (RAT) operation are disclosed. A method includes the WTRU wirelessly communicating information on a first operating frequency according to a first RAT. The WTRU also wirelessly communicates information on a second operating frequency according to a second RAT.
Abstract:
A light-emitting device (LED) module is described. The LED module includes a heatsink, at least one LED on a top surface of the heatsink, and mounting features protruding from the top surface of the heat sink for alignment with an optical component. A thermally insulating material is adjacent at least portions of the mounting features that would otherwise be in contact with the optical component when mounted.
Abstract:
An optical coupler is described herein. The optical coupler includes at least one optical coupler unit. The at least one optical coupler includes an optical coupler entrance face and an optical coupler exit face. The optical coupler entrance face is configured to face, and receive light emitted by, at least one LED during operation. The optical coupler exit face is shaped as a Fresnel lens with a focal point at or behind a light emitting area of the at least one LED and is configured to face a lightguide entrance face of a slab lightguide. The optical coupler exit face has dimensions that match at least a part of the lightguide entrance face. The optical coupler entrance and exit faces are configured to refract light emitted by the at least one LED during operation
Abstract:
A lighting device is described. The lighting device includes a support structure, which includes a central mounting face and at least one first lateral mounting face adjacent the central mounting face and forming an included angle with the central mounting face of 60° to 90°. The device also includes at least one central light emitting element on the central mounting face and in contact with the support structure and at least one first lateral light emitting element on the first lateral mounting face and in contact with the support structure.
Abstract:
