Abstract: the technology described herein is directed towards a calibration procedure for remote estimation of the position and orientation of an intelligent reflective surface. the calibration is based on accurate estimation of the relative distances between each element of an intelligent reflective surface and a transmission-reception point, e.g., radar sensor, wireless access point and/or base station. a multifrequency (e.g., dual-tone) calibration signal is transmitted to selected elements of the intelligent reflective surface, with the returned calibration signals used to determine the distance to each selected element, from which distances to other elements are determined, along with the intelligent reflective surface's orientation. an active backscatter tag that boosts the returned signal improves the distance measurement accuracy. from the data obtained, the phase delays along the path linking a target and any element of the intelligent reflective surface, and the path linking that element and the transmission-reception point can be directly determined.

Abstract: board assembly processes are disclosed that may be implemented using multiple different electrically conductive solder types to assemble or attach different electronic components to a printed circuit board (pcb). for example, multiple different electronic components may be attached to a common pcb using a multiple-step assembly process that may be performed at different solder reflow temperatures and/or which may incorporate multiple different solder types having different respective minimum reflow temperatures (i.e., melting point temperatures). the disclosed processes may be implementing using a variety of different forms of solder, such as solder paste form, wire solder form, ingot solder form, etc.
