Timothy Mark Robinson

Specialist Product Support Electronic Engineer at 3M.

Experienced Director Of Design And Development with a demonstrated history of working in the Electrical & Electronic Manufacturing industry.

Skilled in Electronic Engineering, interest Machine Learning and Neural Networks, Electronics, Firmware, and Wireless Technologies.

Strong engineering professional with a Master of Science (MSc) focused in Electronic Engineering from The Manchester Metropolitan University.

Patent №:  12220302 – Dressing with increased apposition force. A dressing assembly may include a dressing bolster, an interface seal, and a base layer. The interface seal attaches to the bolster’s periphery, while the base layer has a flange extending beyond the bolster. This assembly can apply reduced pressure to a tissue site and create an apposition force.

Patent №: 12220300 – Partially transparent wound dressing. A partially transparent dressing includes a fluid management core with absorbent material and transparent windows. A barrier layer is attached to one side, and a patient interface layer with an opening for wound fluid is on the other. A fluid communication port is also on the wound-facing side.

Jie Cui

Principal Engineer. Specialist on 5G/6G Research and Standardization at Apple 

Patent №:  12225521 – Codebook design for semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) transmissions. Methods for HARQ feedback in SPS PDSCH include identifying a PUCCH resource, determining SPS PDSCH receptions, selecting a codebook type, constructing the HARQ codebook, and transmitting it to a next-gen node.

Patent №:  12225393 – Methods and systems for radio link monitoring for high speed scenario. Some embodiments include systems and methods for radio link monitoring in high-speed user equipment (UE). The UE’s processor monitors downlink quality using a reference signal, compares it to a threshold (below 10%), and triggers an out-of-sync operation if the quality falls below this threshold.

Patent №:  12224861 – Control signaling for PUCCH reliability enhancement. Embodiments describe systems for a user equipment (UE) to perform PUCCH repetition based on base station signaling. The UE receives signals configuring PUCCH transmission, indicating multiple resources and beams, and transmits the PUCCH multiple times accordingly.

Patent №:  12224830 – Channel state information feedback in wireless communications. Embodiments include a storage medium, user equipment, method, and integrated circuit for 5G NR networks. Operations involve receiving DCI with COT duration and gap threshold, then validating an NZP-CSI-RS resource if it falls within the COT and the gap between its first symbol and the DCI’s last symbol exceeds the threshold.
