Abstract: A system and method for transferring component panes (e.g., film frames) from a component pane storage station to a vacuum table assembly. The system includes a number of component pane handlers, for instance two component pane handlers, and a pick and place mechanism or arm. The component pane handler transfers the component panes from the storage station to the pick and place mechanism. The system includes an alignment module or structure configured to facilitate or effectuate spatial alignment of the component pane while the component pane is coupled to or carried by the component pane handler. The alignment module can be carried by the pick and place mechanism. Spatial alignment of the component pane can be substantially completed before transfer of the component pane from the component pane handler to the pick and place mechanism. The pick and place mechanism includes a set of vacuum (or suction) elements or pads that enables pick up of the component pane from the component pane handler as well as release and pick up of the component pane at the vacuum table assembly.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for providing flexible bandwidth waveforms and channels for wireless communication. Embodiments may utilize portions of spectrum that may not be large enough to fit a standard or normal waveform. Chip rates may be adapted dynamically to generate and/or to receive flexible bandwidth waveforms to fit these portions of spectrum. Scaling factors and/or center frequencies may also be utilized to generate flexible waveforms. A mobile device may receive adjustment information from a base station so that the mobile device may dynamically adjust its chip rate to utilize a flexible bandwidth channel. A base station may simultaneously transmit on a normal bandwidth channel and a flexible bandwidth channel in some cases. Some flexible bandwidth waveforms may be utilized that are larger, or take more bandwidth, than a normal waveform. Flexible bandwidth may also be utilized to split and/or combine frequency channels.
