    摘要: Systems and methods in which a thermal conductive composite comprises a non-uniform heat absorption profile of a thermal reactive material are described. Thermal conductive composites herein may be utilized in thermal regulatory modules with a gradient structure configured to transfer heat energy away from an area near a heat source to an area with a relatively large latent heat absorbing capacity. Thermal conductive material may be provided in a frame structure having lower porosity in a first region more near a heat source and higher porosity in a second region more distant from the heat source. A thermal reactive material may be deposited so as to be disposed within the pores of the thermal conductive material frame structure wherein the density of the thermal reactive material in the first region of the thermal conductive composite is lower than that at the second region of the thermal conductive composite.

    摘要: Described is a method of processing a signal received at an uplink control information (UCI) receiver in a wireless communication system. The method comprises processing a signal received on an uplink (UL) at said UCI receiver to transform said received signal into a likelihood calculation of possible transmitted codewords (θ1 . . . θi . . . θN) and determining a maximum magnitude θmax value from said likelihood calculation. The method includes comparing said maximum magnitude θmax value to a selected, calculated or predetermined scaled threshold S·τ where τ is a threshold and S is a scaling factor for the threshold τ. The comparison step is such that, where |θmax|2>S·τ, the method comprises determining that the signal received comprises a linear block encoded signal. In the method, prior to said comparison step, the scaling factor S is selected from a plurality of scaling factor options. One scaling factor option (i) is a scaling factor SRE derived from a combination of estimated noise and/or signal power at an output of a resource element (RE) demapper module and an estimated channel response from/before an equalizer module of said UCI receiver. The options also include using a combination of SRE and a suitable scaling factor derived excluding option (i).

    摘要: Systems and methods in which multi-dimensional metric monitoring is used with respect to multi-wavelength scattering for smoke detection are described. A multi-dimensional metric may dynamically track a slope of a relationship between scattered light of multiple wavelengths of scattered light being monitored. A multi-dimensional metric monitoring smoke detection algorithm may utilize multi-dimensional thresholds with respect to monitoring of the multi-dimensional metric for initiating a fire alarm and resetting the fire alarm. An optical measuring chamber utilized for providing multi-wavelength scattering signals utilized in deriving a multi-dimensional metric for smoke detection may be configured for wide-scattering-angle signal collection, such as using a light trapping sub-chamber having a light-guide diaphragm assembly configured for wide-scattering-angle signal collection.

    摘要: Systems and methods which provide a high-throughput point source light coupling structure implementing a condenser configured according to one or more condenser configuration rules are described. Embodiments of a high-throughput point source light coupling structure utilize a birefringent plate configuration in combination with a condenser and point source to provide a light coupler structure for a birefringent-static-Fourier transform interferometer implementation. According to some examples, the optical axis of a first and second birefringent plate of a birefringent plate configuration are not in the same plane. A condenser of a high-throughput point source light coupling structure of embodiments is provided in a defined (e.g., spaced, relational, etc.) relationship with respect to the point source and/or a camera lens used in capturing an interference pattern generated by the light coupling structure. High-throughput point source light coupling structures herein may be provided as external accessories for processor-based mobile devices having image capturing capabilities.
