Systems may provide feedback that may include antenna selection or mobile device configuration. Antennas may be automatically configured throughout the device or the orientation or location of the mobile device may be altered to increase performance. Historical performance information of the mobile device may be maintained in order to determine proactive manipulations of the mobile device. In addition, multiple mobile devices may cooperatively determine the orientation or location that may increase performance.

The present disclosure relates to apparatus, systems, and methods for analyzing characteristics of entities of interest. In particular, the present disclosure provides a mechanism for analyzing information about entities of interest and for rating or scoring the entities of interest based on the analyzed information. The rating or the score of an entity of interest can sometimes be referred to as a placerank value of an entity of interest.

An inter-vehicle communication system includes: multiple vehicle communication devices for multiple vehicles; and a wireless base station. Each of the multiple vehicle communication devices includes a wide area communication portion that communicates with a different device, a wide area communication control portion that executes a wide area periodic transmission process of multicasting a vehicle information packet towards a different vehicle, a narrow area communication portion, and a narrow area communication control portion that executes a narrow area periodic transmission process of multicasting the vehicle information packet towards the different vehicle. The wide area communication control portion transmits a vehicle status report to the wireless base station. The wide area communication control portion pauses the wide area periodic transmission process. The wireless base station includes an in-cell vehicle management portion that manages position information of a vehicle existing in a charge cell, an encounter determination portion that determines whether a transmission source vehicle has a possibility of encountering the different vehicle, and a device control portion that instructs a transmission source device to pause the wide area periodic transmission process.

A power amplifier circuit includes first and second transistors and a first voltage output circuit. A radio frequency signal is input into a base of the first transistor. The first voltage output circuit outputs a first voltage in accordance with a power supply voltage. The first voltage is supplied to a base or a gate of the second transistor. An emitter or a source of the second transistor is connected to a collector of the first transistor. A first amplified signal generated by amplifying the radio frequency signal is output from a collector or a drain of the second transistor.

A system, including: a non-transitory memory; and one or more hardware processors coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations including: receiving a transaction request from an endpoint device on a network, wherein the endpoint device is registered with a transaction service provider; locating, based on the transaction request, an authorization token corresponding to a payment mechanism, wherein the authorization token is stored to a memory device of the router; in response to receiving the transaction request, transmitting the authorization token to the transaction service provider to retrieve transaction information from the transaction service provider, wherein the transaction information includes payment data for a user of the endpoint device; and transmitting the transaction information to the upstream network location, wherein the upstream network location includes a merchant server.
