20140323087 | NETWORK ACCESS SELECTION BETWEEN ACCESS NETWORKS - WiFi/3GPP access selection techniques are used to control selection by a user terminal between cellular network cells and Wi-Fi cells. Cellular network cells providing overlapping coverage with Wi-Fi cells are correlated with the Wi-Fi cells. A received signal strength threshold is determined for each Wi-Fi cell based on an average throughput of the cellular network cells correlated with the Wi-Fi cell. The WiFi user terminal admit threshold is used to control the effective coverage of the Wi-Fi cell. A user terminal operating within a cellular network cell is admitted to a Wi-Fi only if it is within the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell as determined by the received signal strength threshold. Increasing the threshold shrinks the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell to allow user terminal only of strong RSSI to make connection to the WiFi Cell, and steers user terminal of weak RSSI away from the Wi-Fi cell. In contrary, decreasing the threshold expands the effective coverage area of the Wi-Fi cell and effectively allows more user terminal making connection to the Wi-Fi cell. | 10-30-2014 |

20110199395 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COMPENSATION OF NON-UNIFORMITIES IN LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE DISPLAYS - A system and method for operating a display at a constant luminance even as some of the pixels in the display are degraded over time. Each pixel in the display is configured to emit light when a voltage is supplied to the pixel's driving circuit, which causes a current to flow through a light emitting element. Degraded pixels are compensated by supplying their respective driving circuits with greater voltages. The display data is scaled by a compression factor less than one to reserve some voltage levels for compensating degraded pixels. As pixels become more degraded, and require additional compensation, the compression factor is decreased to reserve additional voltage levels for use in compensation. | 08-18-2011 |

20080293160 | DNA AND RNA CONFORMATIONAL SWITCHES AS SENSITIVE ELECTRONIC SENSORS OF ANALYTES - The electrical conductivity of DNA and other oligonucleotide constructs is dependent on its conformational state. Such a dependence may be harnessed for the electronic sensing of external analytes, for instance, adenosine or thrombin. Such a DNA sensor incorporates an analyte receptor, whose altered conformation in the presence of bound analyte switches the conformation, and hence, the conductive path between two oligonucleotide stems, such as double-helical DNA. Two distinct designs for such sensors are described that permit significant electrical conduction through a first or “detector” double-helical stem only in the presence of the bound analyte. In the first design, current flows through the analyte receptor itself whereas, in the second, current flows in a path adjacent to the receptor. The former design may be especially suitable for certain categories of analytes, including heterocycle-containing compounds such as adenosine, whereas the latter design should be generally applicable to the detection of any molecular analyte, large or small, such as the protein thrombin. Since analyte detection in these DNA sensors is electronic, the sensors may be used in rapid and automated chip-based detection of small molecules as well as of proteins and other macromolecules. | 11-27-2008 |
