摘要:
An apparatus in a node of a wireless network for setting the data rate for sending data to a remote node, and a method for setting the data rate. The method includes receiving a packet from the remote node, determining a measure of signal quality for the received packet; and selecting the data rate for communicating to the remote node according to at least the determined signal quality. The measure of signal quality is a measure of the EVM of the received packet. One implementation conforms to one or more variants of the IEEE 802.11 standard that uses OFDM packets.

Described herein is an apparatus for inclusion in a station of a wireless network, and a method implemented in a station of a wireless network. The method includes wirelessly receiving data via each of a plurality of antennas, the data corresponding to a packet of information transmitted from a remote station, sampling the received data corresponding to the received packet to form data samples for each of the antennas, and determining a measure of signal quality from samples of the received data for each of the antennas. The method further includes selecting one of the plurality of receive antennas as the antenna for receiving from the remote station according to the determined measure of signal quality.

A method and apparatus for normalizing the output of multiple light sources used to expose a photosensitive material to print high quality continuous tone and/or color images. Each of the multiple light sources is driven by a different signal weighted to cause all of the light sources to output light of intensity appropriate to produce a uniform image density over a wide range of image densities. In a preferred embodiment, each light source is driven by a different digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and/or timer circuit. A control processor supplies a multibit correction value tog each DAC and/or timer circuit to supply a drive signal to its associated light source weighted to cause all of the light sources to output light of substantially uniform intensity at a certain intensity level.

Sealing mechanisms are provided. In one embodiment, a system includes a connector configured to couple one or more flow-control valves to equipment installed at a well and an isolation sleeve configured to be retained by the connector. The isolation sleeve may include a seal and a hydraulically actuated piston disposed adjacent one another about a body of the isolation sleeve such that actuation of the piston engages the seal. The isolation sleeve may also include a mechanically driven actuator ring, where the actuator ring energizes a seal against the bore of a tubing hanger. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

A method and an apparatus in a first wireless station of a network transmitting to a second wireless station. The network uses multi-tone OFDM signals. The first station includes multiple antennas and a receive and a transmit signal path per antenna. Each receive signal path includes a discrete Fourier transformer determining the tones in a received signal, and each transmit signal path includes an inverse discrete Fourier transformer converting tones to a signal. The method includes determining channel estimates for each tone and each receive path while receiving from the second station, determining transmit weights to transmit to the second station, tone-by-tone weighting a signal for transmission to the second station to produce weighted tone sets for each transmit signal path, and transmitting the weighted tone sets. The first station is configured so that the weighting produces additive beamforming without the second station needing multiple antennas.

In an example embodiment, packet encapsulation is employed to facilitate bridging between bridge ports that do not reflect frames (such as 802.1 compatible bridge ports) and bridge ports that do reflect frames (such as 802.11 compatible clients). Packets from a wireless access point may be sent twice, once with a predefined multicast address for processing by 802.11 clients contained in bridges, and once with the original destination address. In particular embodiments, additional means may be employed to minimize the circumstances where packets are duplicated.

A system and computer program product for automatically managing copies of source data volumes are provided. A copy management agent receives a message that target volume copies of source volumes are available. The copy management agent accesses the target volume copies of the source volumes. The copy management agent analyzes metadata for the target volume copies. The copy management agent determines whether any of the target volume copies is a boot volume copy based on the analyzed metadata. In response to a determination that one of the target volume copies is a boot volume copy, the copy management agent directs a provisioning agent to provision a new host for the target volume copies. The copy management agent directs the storage subsystem to present the target volume copies to a storage area network port associated with the new host. Then, the new host is booted using the boot volume copy.

Disclosed, in example embodiment herein, is an apparatus comprising an interface and channel selection logic coupled to the interface. The channel selection logic is operable to receive data representative of neighboring wireless devices to a wireless device occupying a channel for a plurality of channels via the interface. The channel selection logic is responsive to receiving the data representative of neighboring wireless devices occupying the plurality of channels to generate a graph for each of the plurality of channels, wherein vertices of the graph represent the wireless device and neighboring wireless devices occupying the channel and edges of the graph represent wireless devices with overlapping coverage areas. The channel selection logic selects the channel for the wireless device whose graph has the smallest radius.

In an example embodiment, a technique employing a device (registration assistant) that can communicate with an infrastructure network to configure devices via an ad hoc network to communicate with the infrastructure network. An ad hoc device associates with the registration assistant and sends a request to be configured. The registration assistant contacts a registration service on the infrastructure network and sends data identifying the ad hoc device to the registration service. The registration assistant upon receiving a registration response from the registration assistant forwards configuration data to the ad hoc device that can enable the ad hoc device to communicate with the infrastructure network.
