20140233528 | UPLINK CHANNEL FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - A transmission procedure for use in a communication system including a base station and one or more terminals. The base station transmits a signal to a terminal, and provides the terminal with possible characteristics of a further signal for transmission from the terminal to the base station, the possible characteristics including at least one of: one or more locations for transmission of the further signal in the time domain; and one or more locations for the transmission of the further signal in the frequency domain; and wherein transmission of the further signal from the terminal, with one or more characteristics selected by the terminal from the possible characteristics, indicates further information relating to the terminal. | 08-21-2014 |
20140349645 | PRESENCE INDICATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Embodiments of the present invention provide a new way for a UE to autonomously indicate to the network from which transmission points (TPs) it is able to receive certain broadcast signals. As an example, by receiving in a broadcast signal in the form of a synchronization sequence, the physical identity of a particular TP, a UE infers when it should, if it wishes, send on an UL an indication of its ability to receive the broadcast signal from that TP—i.e., an indication of its presence in the coverage of the TP. The network is then able to take suitable action in response to this, such as adjusting network coverage, enabling or disabling other broadcast channels and controlling paging. | 11-27-2014 |
20150038159 | NETWORK NODE SELECTION IN WIRELESS NETWORKS - A method of selecting a network node with which a mobile terminal is to establish a connection for wireless communication. The method comprises generating a ranked list of network nodes that are available to the mobile terminal for establishing the connection, each of the available network nodes being ranked based on historical data relating to a plurality of different radio characteristics of the network node and on weighting factors associated with the plurality of different radio characteristics, each of the weighting factors having a value that is determined based on historical data relating to one or more mobile terminal usage characteristics; and selecting the network node for establishing the connection with the mobile terminal based on the ranked list of network nodes. | 02-05-2015 |
20160100426 | Scheduling Requests in Small Cell Networks - A Small Cell Network in which a terminal is simultaneously served by a macro cell and one or more small cells. These may operate at different frequencies, and may have different bandwidths, traffic loading and support different QoS (Quality of Service). The terminal indicates its preference of cell to employ for its uplink data transmission by sending a scheduling request using a cell selected from a set of cells by the mobile terminal, depending on the UL channel characteristics for the cells in the set and/or on other criteria. | 04-07-2016 |

20140256669 | USE OF N6-(2-HYDROXYETHYL)-ADENOSINE IN PREPARATION OF CROP PESTICIDE - A method for controlling a pest on a crop includes applying a pesticide that comprises N6-(2-hydroxyethyl)-adenosine as an active ingredient for controlling the pest. The pesticide may include 20 wt % N6-(2-hydroxyethyl)-adenosine, 1-3 wt % dispersing agent, and 66.5% wt % water. The pesticide may further include a dispersion agent, a thickening agent, or an antifreeze agent as an auxiliary agent. The dispersing agent may be one or more selected from sodium lignin sulfonate, NNO, Agricultural Emulsifier 500#, Agricultural Emulsifier 700#, Agricultural Emulsifier 600#, Agricultural Emulsifier 1602#, methylene bis-methylnaphthalene sodium sulfonate, sodium salt of alkyl naphthalene sulfonate condensate, or polyoxyethylene castor oil. The thickening agent may be one or more selected from carboxymethyl cellulose, urea, poly vinyl alcohol, aluminum magnesium silicate, or xanthan gum. The antifreeze agent may be one or more selected from ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, glycerin-diethylene glycol diethyl ether, methyl-his-propylene glycol, or urea. | 09-11-2014 |

20160062881 | METABLOCK RELINKING SCHEME IN ADAPTIVE WEAR LEVELING - Systems and methods for metablock relinking may be provided. A first physical block of a first metablock may be determined to have a different health than a second physical block of a second metablock based on health indicators of the first and second physical blocks. Each of the health indicators may indicate an extent to which a respective one of the first and second physical blocks may be written to and/or erased before the respective one of the first and second physical blocks becomes defective. The first physical block of the first metablock may be replaced with the second physical block of the second metablock based on a determination that the health of the first physical block of the first metablock is different than the health of the second physical block of the second metablock. | 03-03-2016 |
20160098215 | Method and System for Adaptively Assigning Logical Block Address Read Counters Using a Tree Structure - Systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided that dynamically reassign counters (or other memory monitors) in a memory. A plurality of counters may be assigned to different address ranges within an overall address range of a memory. The value of the counter may be indicative of activity, such as reads, within a respective assigned address range. Depending on the value of the counter, the respective address range of the counter may be dynamically changed. For example, a counter with a high value (indicating higher activity within the address range) may have its respective address range divided, with two counters being assigned to each of the divided address ranges. Likewise, counters with low values (indicating less activity within the address ranges) may have their respective address ranges combined, with a single counter being assigned to the combined address ranges. Thus, in subdividing and combining address ranges, the number of counters assigned may remain the same, while still monitoring the activity with the overall address range. | 04-07-2016 |

20110156688 | Regulator Over-Voltage Protection Circuit with Reduced Standby Current - An embodiment of the invention relates to a power converter formed with an error amplifier and a related method. In an embodiment, a first switch is coupled in series with an error amplifier compensation capacitor. Upon detection of a current level greater than a threshold level, the compensation capacitor is decoupled from the error amplifier by opening the first switch. In an embodiment, a second switch is coupled in parallel with the compensation capacitor, and the current-sensing circuit enables conductivity of the second switch to discharge the compensation capacitor upon detection of the current level greater than the threshold level. The second switch is opened upon detection of the current level less than the threshold level. In an embodiment, the current-sensing circuit controls an output current of the power converter at a current-limit level upon detection of the internal current level greater than the threshold level. | 06-30-2011 |
