Coordination of multiple structured light-based 3D image detectors
Technologies are generally described for coordination of structured light-based image detectors. In some examples, one or more structured light sources may be configured to project sets of points onto the scene. The sets of points may be arranged into disjoint sets of geometrical shapes such as lines, where each geometrical shape includes a subset of the points projected by an illumination source. A relative position and or a color of the points in each geometrical shape may encode an identification code with which each illumination source may be identified. Thus, even when the point clouds projected by each of the illumination sources overlap, the geometrical shapes may still be detected, and thereby a corresponding illumination source may be identified. A depth map may then be estimated based on stereovision principles or depth-from-focus principles by one or more image detectors.

Various embodiments of a scheme of dynamic activation and release of carrier aggregation in an LTE-Advanced system are provided. When transmission need of an LTE-Advanced user is large and the user is within coverage of at least one secondary component carrier, carrier aggregation is activated while a certain amount of resource of each component carrier is preserved to support carrier aggregation. This avoids unnecessary activation and waste due to signaling cost. When the primary component carrier of an LTE-Advanced user has sufficient resource to satisfy transmission need of the user or when the user is not within coverage of at least one secondary component carrier, carrier aggregation is released. This minimizes complex measurement and cost of controlling signals due to multi-carrier scheduling.

MOBILE DEVICE PREVENTION OF CONTACTLESS CARD ATTACKS
Technologies related to mobile device prevention of contactless card attacks are generally described. In some examples, a mobile computing device may monitor for electromagnetic signals at frequencies used for short range communications with contactless cards. Detection of such electromagnetic signals by the mobile computing device may indicate an attack attempt on a proximal contactless card. In response to detection of such electromagnetic signals, the mobile computing device may automatically generate a disruption signal effective to disrupt communications between contactless card readers and any proximal contactless cards, to thereby foil the attack before sensitive contactless card data is stolen.
Technologies are generally described to provide adaptable near field communication (NFC) in portable devices to enable a portable device to provide wireless power transfer (WPT) functionality and NFC functionality. According to some examples, a wireless power antenna installed on the portable device may be configured to function as a WPT antenna and as an NFC antenna. For example, the wireless power antenna may be a coil, which may be modified to adjust a quality factor (Q) by incorporation of a switchable resistor element. The modified coil may function as a wireless power receiver/transmitter with a high Q value when the resistor element is added and as an active NFC antenna with a low Q value when the resistor is not added. Additionally, the modified coil may further enable the portable device to function as a passive NFC antenna when the portable device is unpowered.
In some examples, a method to defend against relay attacks includes recording a first representation of a motion signal associated with a mobile device. The first representation of the motion signal is obtained by remotely sensing the motion of the mobile device. The method also includes receiving data indicative of a second representation of the motion signal associated with the mobile device. The second representation of the motion signal is obtained by sensing the motion of the mobile device in-situ. The method also includes comparing the first representation of the motion signal with the second representation of the motion signal and verifying, based on the results of the comparison, that a relay attack is not present when the first representation of the motion signal is substantially similar to the second representation of the motion signal.
