TRANSMISSION OF STREAMING STATION ASSOCIATED WITH OVER-THE-AIR BROADCAST STATION
A method includes receiving, from a requesting device, a broadcast station identifier associated with an over-the-air broadcast station. In response to receiving the station identifier, returning to the requesting device an address of a streaming station corresponding to the over-the-air broadcast station. A determination is made regarding whether the requesting device will insert advertisements locally. In response to determining that the requesting will insert advertisements locally, custom advertisements are transmitted to the requesting device for insertion into the streaming station corresponding to the over-the-air broadcast station.
Electronic devices including laser-textured glass cover members
A laser-textured glass cover member suitable for use in an electronic device is disclosed. The laser-textured surface of the glass cover member may provide a smooth feel to an external surface of the electronic device without introducing a perceptible visual texture. Methods for making the laser-textured glass cover members are also disclosed.
RAISED PATHWAY HEAT SINK
Wireless electronic devices include one or more wireless antennas to provide for wireless communications. The antenna cables are routed internally within the device and typically noise from components located on a circuit board may couple to the antenna cables and cause a degradation in wireless performance, impact antenna sensitivity and cause packet loss. Utilizing raised pathways in a heat sink utilized for thermal transfer of heat to a housing enables tunnels to be formed between the housing and the heat sink. Routing the antenna cables through the tunnels improves noise isolation for the antenna cables while still maintaining the heat transfer. The raised pathways are configured to not interfere with components on the circuit board or components included in the housing. The wireless antennas may be mounted within the housing instead of on the board so no portion of the antenna cables are located on the circuit board.
Substituting streaming station for over-the-air broadcast
An automotive radio receiver includes an over-the-air radio tuner and a network interface. When a broadcast is received at the radio receiver, it includes embedded information that can be used to identify the radio station providing the broadcast. The radio receiver uses the embedded information to identify a streaming station that corresponds to the broadcast station. The radio receiver transmits information associated with the streaming station to a web service, which returns an address at which the radio receiver can access the streaming station. The address of the streaming station is stored in a memory accessible to the radio receiver for later use. The next time the radio receiver is tuned to the same broadcast station, the radio receiver instead connects to the streaming station at the stored address.
Electronic device enclosure having a textured glass component
Textured cover assemblies for electronic devices are disclosed. The textured cover assemblies may provide a combination of optical and tactile properties to the electronic devices. In some cases, a textured cover assembly may be provided over decorative coating.
HIGH-FREQUENCY MODULE AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE
To achieve miniaturization, a high-frequency module includes a mounting substrate, a power amplifier, and an electronic component. The mounting substrate has a first main surface and a second main surface on opposite sides. The power amplifier is arranged on a mounting substrate. The power amplifier has a driver stage amplifier and an output stage amplifier. The driver stage amplifier is arranged on the second main surface of the mounting substrate. The output stage amplifier is arranged on the first main surface of the mounting substrate. The electronic component is arranged on the first main surface of the mounting substrate. The electronic component overlaps the driver stage amplifier in a plan view from a thickness direction of the mounting substrate.
