Abstract: When determining that a pixel of a future frame, which is included in a search range, includes a pixel on an outside of an effective image area, and determining that pixels inside an effective image area of a past frame are present at positions point-symmetric to pixels inside the search range and on an outside of the effective image area about a pixel of interest, a pixel selector selects pixels in an effective image area of a past frame, the pixels being located at the point-symmetric positions. The pixel selector calculates difference values between the pixel of interest and the selected pixels inside the effective image area of the past frame.

Abstract: Systems and methods discussed herein are directed to managing customer Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) and embedded SIM (eSIM) profiles and allocated Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Numbers (MSISDN) for connected devices, e.g., cars, in different use-cases. For example, in configurations, users may have a primary electronic device, e.g., a mobile phone having a primary MSISDNPRIMARY that is instantiated on a primary Integrated Circuit Card Identifier (ICCID), ICCIDPRIMARY in the billing system of a wireless communication network. When the user has a secondary device paired with the mobile phone, that secondary device may have a secondary MSISDNSECONDARY that is activated with a secondary ICCIDSECONDARY in the billing system. Thus, the secondary device may be used by the user in conjunction with the primary device and is paired with the primary device such that incoming calls are forked to both the primary device and the secondary device.

Abstract: The disclosed technology provides a system for scanning frequency channels that reduces the number of frequency channels scanned from among all the possible frequency channels that a wireless communication device can operate on. The wireless communication device uses historical data on last successful connection together with device data metrics from the last successful connection to determine a probability of successful connection for each of the potential frequency channels. The wireless communication device then ranks the probability associated with each frequency channel to determine a frequency scanning order that results in fewer frequencies being scanned before an appropriate channel is identified.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to handover methods. In one example method, a first network node determines that a terminal device needs handover. The handover is from a second network node to a third network node. The first network node sends a user equipment context setup request message to the third network node. The user equipment context setup request message is used to instruct the third network node to establish a radio link for the terminal device. The first network node sends a handover command to the terminal device. The handover command is used to instruct the terminal device to perform the handover.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) has dual connectivity to a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) and a second RAT, such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) and New Radio (NR). The UE receives a request for location information for the first and second RATs, e.g., after transmitting capability information indicating dual connectivity. The UE obtains location information for the first and second RATs and transmits the location information to a location server. The location information, for example, may be location measurements obtained for the first and second RATs, a location estimate, or both. The request for location information may be received using the first RAT and the location information may be transmitted using the second RAT. The request for location information may include a first request for the first RAT, and a second request for the second RAT received after location information for the first RAT is obtained.

Abstract: A multicast bearer management method includes: in a process of receiving service data of a single cell-multimedia broadcast multicast service traffic channel SC-MTCH, suspending a single cell-multimedia broadcast multicast service point to multipoint radio bearer SC-MRB corresponding to the SC-MTCH when there is a first type of data to be received; and when reception of the first type of data is completed, restoring or releasing the SC-MRB based on a temporary mobile group identity TMGI and/or a session identity corresponding to the SC-MRB. The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention can prevent frequent release and establishment of SC-MRBs, thereby saving network resources and power of a terminal device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system for associating LiDAR points with objects is provided. Objects in an image are identified and bounding boxes are placed on each object in the image. LiDAR points are received and are projected into the image based on a reference frame of the image. All pixels of the image that are not inside a bounding box are changed to a color such as black. All points that are inside a bounding box are changed to a color that is unique to the particular bounding box. To determine which LiDAR points are associated with the objects in the image, for each LiDAR point a color of the pixel having the same coordinates in the image as the LiDAR point is determined. If the determined color is black than the LiDAR point is not associated with any object. Else, the LiDAR point is located in the bounding box that uses the determined color, and the LiDAR point can be labeled as being located with the object corresponding to the bounding box.

Abstract: Certain aspects involve using a space-time memory network to locate one or more target objects in video content for segmentation or other object classification. In one example, a video editor generates a query key map and a query value map by applying a space-time memory network to features of a query frame from video content. The video editor retrieves a memory key map and a memory value map that are computed, with the space-time memory network, from a set of memory frames from the video content. The video editor computes memory weights by applying a similarity function to the memory key map and the query key map. The video editor classifies content in the query frame as depicting the target feature using a weighted summation that includes the memory weights applied to memory locations in the memory value map.
