Disclosed is a method for improving affinity of an antibody for an antigen, comprising, in an unmodified antibody, improving affinity for an antigen as compared to the unmodified antibody, by changing 77th, 79th and 81st amino acid residues of a light chain defined by Kabat method to charged amino acid residues.

Proposed are an apparatus and a method for estimating the position of a target terminal within a mobile communication system. In general, a mobile communication system is composed of a base station and terminals. In the present invention, one or more positioning devices are placed around a target terminal required to be positioned to measure a transmission signal of the target terminal, and accurately measures the position of the target terminal on the basis of the transmission signal. In the above process, the base station should connect a communication channel with the terminal for positioning of the terminal, and a method therefor is proposed. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for setting a terminal in a standby state to transmit an uplink signal. In addition, an operation and a protocol for positioning the target terminal are proposed.

The method comprises: identifying, in a ranging block, one or more ranging rounds to transmit a ranging control message (RCM) and ranging ancillary data; generating the RCM including an advanced ranging control information element (ARC IE) that includes a ranging method field, wherein the ranging method field includes a value that indicates whether a ranging round following the RCM is used for ranging ancillary information exchange; transmitting, to a second network entity, the ranging ancillary data in the ranging round following the RCM when the value included in the ranging method field corresponds to ranging ancillary information exchange; and receiving, from the second network entity, an acknowledgement (ACK) corresponding to the ranging ancillary data.

It is provided a location determiner comprising: a first antenna; a radio signal modification device, wherein the radio signal modification device is configured to improve an ability to determine whether the portable key device is located on a back side or on a front side of the location determiner, based on obtaining a channel impulse response, CIR, of an impulse signal transmitted from the portable key device, wherein the location determiner is installable such that the back side is in a space being restricted by selectively unlockable a physical barrier and the front side is opposite the back side.

It is provided a method for determining when a portable key device is located on a front side or on a back side in relation to a barrier secured by an electronic lock. The method is performed in a location determiner and comprises the steps of: obtaining a channel impulse response, CIR, based on an impulse signal transmitted from the portable key device, the CIR being based on a plurality of samples of the impulse signal as received by an antenna being fixedly mounted in relation to the electronic lock; and determining, based on the CIR, whether the portable key device is located on the front side or on the back side.

Techniques are provided for positioning of user equipment (UE) with paging messages. An example method for positioning a user equipment with paging messages includes receiving a positioning paging message with a user equipment in an idle state, measuring positioning measurements in response to receiving the positioning paging message, determining location information based at least in part on the positioning measurements, and transmitting the location information via a random access procedure.

A transmitting STA can transmit a sensing initiation frame to a first receiving STA in a wireless local area network (wireless LAN) system. The sensing initiation frame can include information related to an STA for transmitting a sounding frame and a session identifier (ID) related to an STA group that is to perform sensing. The transmitting STA can transmit the sounding frame to the first receiving STA. The transmitting STA can receive a first feedback frame for the sounding frame from the first receiving STA. The sounding frame can be a frame transmitted to identify a target. The first feedback frame can include information about a channel changed by means of the target. The sounding frame can include a null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame and a null data packet (NDP) frame.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit, a memory, and a processor operatively connected to the communication circuit and the memory, wherein the processor may be configured to transmit a first message for range measurement in a first range measurement period through the communication circuit, receive a second message including a first response time and transmitted by a first external electronic device through the communication circuit in response to the first message, receive a third message including a second response time and a third response time and transmitted by a second external electronic device through the communication circuit in response to the first message, and receive a fourth message including a fourth response time, a fifth response time, and a sixth response time and transmitted by a third external electronic device through the communication circuit in response to the first message.

A method and apparatus a first network entity in a wireless communication system supporting ranging capability is provided. The method and apparatus comprises: identifying, in a ranging block, one or more ranging rounds to transmit a ranging control message (RCM) with a multiple message receipt confirmation request (MMRCR) for a transmission of at least one first message comprising at least one of a set of ranging messages or a set of ranging ancillary data messages; transmitting, to a second network entity, the RCM with the MMRCR; transmitting, to the second network entity, ranging ancillary data in at least one ranging round of one or more ranging rounds following the RCM, wherein the ranging ancillary data is associated with the MMRCR; and receiving, from the second network entity, a ranging multiple message receipt confirmation (RMMRC) corresponding to the transmission of the at least one first message.

A drone detection, identification and location system and method may illuminate a target with one or multiple selected radio-frequency (RF) carrier frequencies. Both direct emissions received from the target and re-emissions generated by the target may be processed to determine whether the target is a drone. The re-emissions may be generated by circuitry of the target resulting from the illumination with the one or multiple RF carrier frequencies. The re-emissions may comprise cross-modulation products (CMPs) including forced non-linear emissions (FNLEs). The direct emissions and the re-emissions may be processed to generate an RF signature for the target. The target may be determined to be drone and the type of drone may be identified based on the RF signature.
