20130182563 | Method of Enhanced Connection Recovery and Loss-less DATA Recovery - An enhanced connection recovery upon lost RRC connection due to radio link failure (RLF) or handover failure (HOF) is proposed. A UE first establishes an RRC connection in a source cell in a mobile communication network. Later on, the UE detects a failure event and starts an RRC reestablishment procedure in a target cell to restore the RRC connection. In a first novel aspect, a fast NAS recovery process is applied to reduce the outage time in the target cell. In a second novel aspect, context fetching is used to reduce the outage time in the target cell. In a third novel aspect, a loss-less reestablishment procedure is proposed to reduce data loss during the connection recovery. | 07-18-2013 |
20130183974 | Method of Enhanced Connection Recovery and Cell Selection - An enhanced connection recovery upon lost RRC connection due to radio link failure (RLF) or handover failure (HOF) is proposed. A UE first establishes an RRC connection in a source cell in a mobile communication network. Later on, the UE detects a failure event and starts an RRC reestablishment procedure in a target cell to restore the RRC connection. In a first novel aspect, a fast RLF process is applied to reduce the outage time in the serving cell. In a second novel aspect, an enhanced cell selection mechanism based on cell prioritization information is applied to reduce the outage time in the target cell. In one embodiment, multi-RAT registration is used to steer cell selection. | 07-18-2013 |
20150049713 | Precoding-Codebook-Based Secure Uplink in LTE - A Precoding-codebook-base Secure Uplink (PSU) scheme is proposed to utilize the channel reciprocity, uniqueness, and randomness in solving the secure initiation problem. A UE receives a first reference signal via first downlink channel in a mobile communication network. The UE performs channel estimation based on the first reference signal and thereby obtaining a first channel response matrix of the first downlink channel. The UE then encodes secrecy information onto a second reference signal. The UE transmits the second reference signal via a second uplink channel. The secrecy information is hidden in the uplink channel through a precoding operation such that the secrecy information can be extracted when the second uplink channel is reciprocal to the first downlink channel. | 02-19-2015 |

20160072533 | Dual Receive Processing In Wireless Communications - A technique, as well as select implementations thereof, pertaining to dual receive processing in wireless communications is described. The technique may involve receiving, by a plurality of receive processing modules, an incoming signal from an antenna to provide a plurality of processing results. The technique may also involve generating, by a determination mechanism, a determination output based on the plurality of processing results. The determination output may include either one or more decoding metrics based on a respective processing result from one of the plurality of receive processing modules or a weighted combination of more than one respective processing result from more than one receive processing module of the plurality of receive processing modules. The technique may further involve decoding, by a decoder, the determination output to provide a decoded signal. | 03-10-2016 |

20100152670 | SAFETY NEEDLE CAP FOR SYRINGE - A safety needle cap for enclosing a needle assembly of a syringe therein includes a tubular cap body having opposite open end and closed end. The cap body is internally provided near the open end with a plurality of radially inward protruded ribs, and is formed on one side with a slit extended from the open end in a length direction of the cap body, so that the needle assembly can be set in the cap body via the slit in a cross sectional direction of the needle assembly. Therefore, a user is protected against stabbing by a sharp tip of the needle assembly. A length of the slit near the open end of the cap body has two outward expanded lateral edges to provide a flared cross section thereat, enabling the needle assembly to be more easily set in the safety needle cap via the slit. | 06-17-2010 |

20150227569 | Systems and Methods for Operating a Server-Side Data Abstraction Layer - A method receives a first request from a client object at a device. The first request specifies a data source. In response to the first request, the method uploads data from the data source, stores the data as a plurality of first columns, and instantiates a first server object that provides access to the first columns. The method later receives a second request from the client object. The second request specifies a transformation of the data. In response to the second request, the method stores one or more additional columns and instantiates a second server object that provides access to the additional columns and one or more of the first columns. Each of the additional columns is constructed from the first columns according to the requested transformation, and each of the additional columns includes a plurality of data values all having the same data type. | 08-13-2015 |
