An energy-conveying structure for invasive electrosurgery combines RF/microwave energy and optical radiation delivery within a single coaxial transmission line, featuring an integrated optical channel. It supports RF/microwave energy, optical radiation, and ultrasonic signals for precise treatment via a surgical scoping device’s instrument cable.

A network of computing devices, each connected to one or more storage devices, manages failure-resilient stripes distributed across the storage devices. Stripes span multiple devices, and the system uses buckets to maintain them. Buckets are dynamically split and transferred among devices to balance computing power and storage access.

A communication system is described where system information is transmitted to devices in system information blocks (SIBs) using a defined transmission scheme. The communication apparatus configures at least one SIB to include control information specifying how the SIBs will be transmitted.
