Reference Signal Provisioning and Channel Information Reporting for Wireless Directional Transmission Systems
Mechanisms for wireless directional transmission systems are proposed. In a first novel aspect, a mechanism for reference signal provisioning and channel information reporting is proposed. Two sets of measurement pilots are introduced for initial access and control signaling. In a second novel aspect, a beamwidth adaptation mechanism is proposed to deal with occasional channel variation without requiring constantly high overhead due to measurement pilot transmission. In a third novel aspect, a mechanism for backhaul link to activate/deactivate efficiently is proposed. New states of activated state and deactivated state are introduced.
BEAM STEERING RADAR WITH SELECTIVE SCANNING MODE FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
Examples disclosed herein relate to a beam steering radar for use in an autonomous vehicle. The beam steering radar has a radar module with at least one beam steering antenna, a transceiver, and a controller that can cause the transceiver to perform, using the at least one beam steering antenna, a first scan of a first field-of-view (FoV) with a first chirp slope in a first radio frequency (RF) signal and a second scan of a second FoV with a second chirp slope in a second RF signal. The radar module also has a perception module having a machine learning-trained classifier that can detect objects in a path and surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle based on the first chirp slope in the first RF signal and classify the objects based on the second chirp slope in the second RF signal.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE CONTROL PROGRAM
This electronic device comprises a plurality of transmitting antennas installed in a mobile body and a transmission controller configured to control transmitted waves to be transmitted from the plurality of transmitting antennas to form a beam in a predetermined direction. The transmission controller controls the predetermined direction in which the beam is formed according to a steering direction of the mobile body.
Antenna with shaped reflector(s), reconfigurable in orbit
The antenna is provided with at least one shaped reflector and a primary radiating feed arranged in front of a reflector, which is capable of generating a primary beam with a footprint covering a nominal coverage zone. The antenna is also provided with an adjustment device for the primary beam of the primary radiating feed, whereby said adjustment device incorporates a secondary radiating array comprised of a number of elementary radiating feeds arranged around the primary radiating feed, a beam-forming network connected to the elementary radiating feeds which is capable of synthesizing a secondary beam covering a secondary coverage zone and having a footprint which is superimposed, at least partially, upon the footprint, and a coupling device connected to the primary reception chain of the primary radiating feed and the reception chain derived from the secondary radiating array.
SYSTEMS FOR PROVIDING WIRELESS POWER TO DEEP IMPLANTED DEVICES
The present disclosure relates to systems for providing wireless power to implanted devices. Consistent with some embodiments, an antenna system for providing wireless power to an implanted device includes a primary antenna loop and at least one parasitic antenna loop. The primary antenna loop is configured to receive power from a power source and radiate the power toward the implanted device. The at least one parasitic antenna loop is configured to absorb a portion of the radiated power and to reradiate the absorbed power toward the implanted device. The power radiated by the primary antenna loop and the power reradiated by the at least one parasitic antenna loop form a wireless power transmission pattern broadly distributed at the surface of the individual's skin and becomes more focused as it travels into the individual's body toward the implanted device. The broad distribution pattern at the surface of the skin reduces the specific absorption rate of the transmission while focusing the transmission as it toward the implanted device improves the antenna system's transfer efficiency.
Combined cross-link and communication-link phased array for satellite communication
An apparatus includes a cross-link phased array and a communication-link phased array. The cross-link phased array and the communication-link phased array are integrated into a single array. The cross-link phased array and communication-link phased array comprise a multi-beam phased array. The cross-link phased array provides communication between multiple space vehicles and the communication-link phased array provides communication between the satellite and the ground GPS system.
Beacon network, moving-object positioning system, and logistics management system
A beacon network includes a plurality of beacons arranged at predetermined positions to periodically or intermittently emit a signal wave including identification information, and a radio wave absorber to adjust an emission angle of the signal wave emitted from at least one of the plurality of beacons.
