ACCESS MANAGEMENT TO MULTI-USER UPLINK RANDOM RESOURCE UNITS BY A PLURALITY OF BSSs
ActiveUS20180199271A1Improve situationEfficient useAssess restrictionNetwork topologiesTelecommunicationsRandom access
A physical Access Point (AP) manages a plurality of BSS groups through Virtual APs. The AP periodically sends beacon frames informing of the profile of each BSS of the plurality of BSSs. To improve channel utilization, the trigger frame identifies a plurality of BSS groups, stations of which are allowed to access the resources units to transmit data during the reserved TXOP. The AP receives, during the reserved TXOP, data from one station of a first group identified in the trigger frame and data from one station (separate from the first one) of a second and separate group identified in the trigger frame. First group and second group use the same joint set of random access parameters for the random access procedure, thus ensuring equivalent fairness in accessing the offered the resources units to transmit data during the reserved TXOP to several BSSs.

Abradable device on the blower casing of a gas turbine engine
The invention concerns a turbine engine with an axis of rotation B comprising a blower casing (10) and a blower (V) with movable blades (17). A clearance lies between the internal surface of the casing and the free ends of the blades. A bearing of the blower is connected to fixed parts of the turbine engine by connections such that, in the event of a load on the blower blades, these connections break and the axis of rotation of the blower oscillates about the axis of rotation B. The casing comprises, bonded to its internal surface and over at least part of the extent of the clearance, a layer of thermoformable foam (19) placed opposite the ends of the blades (17) of the blower (V). The layer of thermoformable foam (19) is partly covered with a layer of abradable substance (14), the thickness of the layer of abradable substance (14) is such that the free ends of the blades of the blower do not reach the layer of foam during the normal functioning of the turbine engine, and, in the event of a load on the blower, the free ends of the blades at least partly fragment the layer of abradable substance.

Mac/phy interface of wireless stations compliant to direct link and downlink transmissions in trigger-based multi-user transmissions
PendingUS20210176763A1Improve situationFunction increaseNetwork topologiesConnection managementTelecommunicationsPHY
Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to enhanced multi-user (MU) uplink (UL) protocols in wireless networks that allow non-UL transmissions to be performed simultaneously with triggered MU UL transmissions. A station may send a trigger frame triggering MU transmissions with an appropriate signaling to allow non-UL transmissions, i.e. transmission to another station, in a resource unit of the MU transmission. Examples of non-UL transmissions include Direct Link transmissions as well as downlink (DL) transmissions. The present disclosure regards how the MAC / PHY interface at an AP and at non-AP stations can be modified to efficiently handle the DiL and DL transmissions. On one hand, a non-AP station recipient of DiL or DL transmissions can use an 802.11 ax TRIGVECTOR to efficiently configure its PHY. On the other hand, the AP can configure its PHY to filter out the DiL / DL RUs.
