Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) capable of supporting multiple antenna ports may determine that some combinations of antenna ports can be used simultaneously. The UE may make this determination by evaluating the relationships between the physical antennas and the transmit chains included in the UE. Upon determining that the combinations of antenna ports can be used simultaneously, the UE may send a message to a base station. The message may indicate whether two or more antenna ports can be used at the same time. The UE may communicate simultaneously over one or more antenna ports based on the scheduling information from the base station which takes into account the ability of the combination of antenna ports to be used concurrently.

Filed: 2018-07-23
Abstract: The methods and systems described herein provide for restricting charging of a second electronic device by a first electronic device during transit, and triggering charging after transit is complete but prior to receipt by a consumer. The electronic devices are shipped in a low power state, and boxed in a particular orientation. An accelerometer in the device, detecting this particular orientation, maintains the device in the low power state. While in this state, a battery of the device is prevented from transmitting a charge to another device or receiving a charge from another device. Once the device is taken out of the shipping environment for a threshold period of time, a movement or change in orientation triggers the device to switch to a high power state. In the high power state, charging of one device by another may be enabled.

Abstract: A ball retrieval apparatus (10, 910) for retrieving (e.g. tennis) balls (70) from the ground (72) includes a receptacle (12, 912) with an opening (26, 926) over which horizontal rods (36, 936) extend. The rods are received in apertures (34), and can move upwardly and laterally between lowermost and raised positions. The distance between rods in their lowermost positions is less than the ball's diameter. This distance increases as the rods are raised, and moved in opposite lateral directions. A ball can be retrieved by being received into the receptacle between adjacent rods. The rods then drop down to their lowermost positions so that the distance between them again decreases so that the ball is trapped in the receptacle. The invention also extends to a ball retrieval system including a trolley (46, 946) and one or two ball retrieval apparatus supported on the trolley.
