Patent EP-3646673-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHEN HONG
IPC: G01R19/12
Filed: 2018-06-19
Abstract: A sensing device is for sensing an operating voltage of a remote device. A communications interface receives communications signals originating from the remote device over a communications bus. A data sampler takes data readings of a communications signal at a predetermined set of timing instants defined by the sensing device. A data metric (such as a duty cycle of high and low states) is obtained from the data readings and from this 5 an operating voltage of the remote device is obtained, based on a relationship between the voltage and the data metric. The invention is based on detecting timing changes which result from voltage changes. In particular, the slope of rising and falling edges of the communications signal are influenced by the voltage level, and this in turn influences the timing of high states (1s) and low states (0s).

Abstract: Systems and methods for transmitting and receiving other broadcast information, OBI, are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of wireless communication device for a wireless communication system comprises receiving and decoding a transmission unit in which OBI is collocated with at least a portion of a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB). The SSB comprises a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH). The OBI comprises paging messages, remaining minimum system information (RMSI), and/or random access response (RAR) messages. In some embodiments, the transmission unit is a transmission unit having a duration that is two or more symbols but less than a duration of a full slot. In this manner, resources of the wireless communication system are efficiently utilized, which results in higher link and system capacity as well as lower network power consumption from increased stand-by times.

Abstract: A container having a battery and one or more active systems for maintaining temperature or other characteristics of goods stored within the container relies on a battery to maintain those active systems during transit. The size of the battery required for such applications may be reduced by providing access to external power during a shipment cycle. For example, shelves within transit vehicles or warehouses can supply electricity to the active systems via a wireless or wired connection, or they may recharge the container's battery, or both. The container may also have data bridging capabilities that use short range wireless technology to communicate with nearby devices that have access to other data streams, such as GPS data and internet connectivity. When bridged with a provider, the container may have access to new data streams, or may be able to disable internal devices providing those same data streams to conserve power.

IPC: H04W4/021

Abstract: In a cellular communications network comprising user equipment and an access network, a cell-blocking method involves designating a cell in the network that is to be blocked and activating a cell-blocking operating mode of a node of the access network of the cellular communications network. According to the cell- blocking method, upon activation of the cell-blocking mode of the access-network node, active calls in the designated cell are detected and disconnected. The disconnection of active calls may be performed selectively based on an access class or establishment cause associated with the call. The cell-blocking may be hidden because the access-network node may not broadcast any data that is indicative of cell-blocking and, when a user equipment in the affected cell attempts to set-up a call, the access-network node may reject the call using an admission control mechanism or may send back a spoofed message from the core network.

Abstract: An aircraft includes an airframe having a fixed-wing section and a plurality of articulated electric rotors, at least some of which are variable-position rotors having different operating configurations based on rotor position. A first operating configuration is a vertical-flight configuration in which the rotors generate primarily vertical thrust for vertical flight, and a second operating configuration is a horizontal-flight configuration in which the rotors generate primarily horizontal thrust for horizontal fixed-wing flight. Control circuitry independently controls rotor thrust and rotor orientation of the variable-position rotors to provide thrust-vectoring maneuvering. The fixed-wing section may employ removable wing panels so the aircraft can be deployed both in fixed-wing and rotorcraft configurations for different missions.
