Title: Power supply
Inventor: MICHAEL TITTENHOFER
IPC: H04B10/80
Filed: 2018-11-06
Abstract: A host card 400 with a transceiver interface establishes a connection with a transceiver module 300. The transceiver module 300 has a low power mode and a high power mode. The host card 400 requests transceiver module identification information and verifies a power condition of the transceiver module 300. The host card 400 modifies an output voltage Vst/Vh to the transceiver module 300 based on the power condition verification. The identification information may be requested while the transceiver module 300 is in low power mode, for example during start-up. The output voltage may be increased from a standard voltage Vst to a higher voltage Vh, which may be a supply rail voltage, and may be higher than a transceiver module output signal voltage. Also presented is a transceiver module 300 with a power supply module operable in a low power mode and a high power mode. The transceiver interface may be a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) slot, a quad small form-factor pluggable (QSFP) slot, a QSFP double density (QSFP-DD) slot or an octal small form-factor pluggable (OSFP) slot.

Title: Resource allocation
Inventor: NOAM CAYRON
IPC: H04W76/28
Filed: 2019-02-06
Abstract: A method of managing pre-configured uplink transmission resources in a cellular wireless communications network. A base station of the cellular network transmits a request to the core network 201 for information regarding discontinuous reception (DRX) parameters for a user equipment (UE) connected to the base station. After receiving the DRX parameters the base station allocates 203 pre-configured uplink or downlink resources to the UE based at least in part on the DRX parameters. The information about the DRX parameters may indicate the location in time of paging occasions (PO) for the UE. This allows the base station to allocate pre-configured uplink resources such that they do not collide with paging occasions within the DRX cycle. A base station to perform the method is also provided.
