  • Patent number: 11991643
    Abstract: Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently transmitting uplink signals to a base station using shared antennas associated with different power classes. A first device may be in communications with a base station using local antennas and may identify a second device having auxiliary antennas available for transmitting uplink signals to the base station. The local and auxiliary antennas may be associated with different power classes, and the first device may transmit a message to a base station indicating that the first device is capable of transmitting using antennas associated with different power classes. The first device may then receive configurations from a base station of different transmit powers to transmit on the antennas associated with the different power classes, and the first device may transmit uplink signals to the base station in accordance with the different transmit power configurations.

  • Publication number: 20240161865
    Abstract: A method of identifying compounds that reduce main protease (Mpro) activity of a coronavirus is described, which comprises identifying compounds that bind to and stabilize a modified Mpro in an oxidized conformation with a disulfide bond formed between Cys145 (C145) and Cys117 (C117) of Mpro, reducing the catalytic activity of the modified Mpro. The modified Mpro may comprise substitution of a residue at one or both sites of His163 (H163), and/or Phe140 (F140). A modified Mpro enzyme structure (and its in vitro synthesized form) is described, together with a system for screening or designing compounds useful in treatment or prophylaxis of coronavirus infection such as infection from SARS-CoV-2.

  • Publication number: 20240160818
    Abstract: Safety mechanisms are embedded into a System on a Chip (SoC) and are operable to detect faults present in the logic circuitry in the SoC. Various types of faults in logic circuitry can occur, for example, a bit stuck at 0 or 1, or a transient or temporary fault due to radiation impacting the SoC. SoC devices are required to meet certain automotive safety integrity standards. The most stringent automotive safety integrity level requires that 90% of random latent faults are detected in all relevant logic, including all safety mechanism. Examples disclosed include hardware based checkers and hardware or software based pattern generation methods that achieve high online fault coverage in safety mechanism circuitry used for functional safety. A hardware based safety mechanism monitors the logic circuitry during operation. Any time the safety mechanism detects any faults in the logic circuitry, a fault notification is propagated to upstream logic.

  • Publication number: 20240161529
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that generate a digital document hierarchy comprising layers of parent-child element relationships from the visual elements. For example, for a layer of the layers, the disclosed systems determine, from the visual elements, candidate parent visual elements and child visual elements. In addition, for the layer of the layers, the disclosed systems generate, from the feature embeddings utilizing a neural network, element classifications for the candidate parent visual elements and parent-child element link probabilities for the candidate parent visual elements and the child visual elements. Moreover, for the layer, the disclosed systems select parent visual elements from the candidate parent visual elements based on the parent-child element link probabilities. Further, the disclosed systems utilize the digital document hierarchy to generate an interactive digital document from the digital document image.

  • Publication number: 20240156340
    Abstract: Methods and systems for assessing and/or treating visual disorders, such as discorder in accommodative ability and/or vergence ability, of a person are provided. Assessment and training exercises can be performed utilizing a computerized system in communication with a head-mountable display (HMD), such as a virtual or augmented reality display, which can display visual targets at various vergence and accommodative demands. Lenses, such as inverted bifocal lenses, may be used in combination with the HMD to mimic natural accommodative demand during viewing or to enable assessment and treatment of accommodation disorders. Corrective factors can be calculated and utilized for generation of visual targets to account for lens characteristics and/or interpupillary distance mismatch.

  • Publication number: 20240163805
    Abstract: During an uplink TDD slot, an UL UE transmits an UL signal that occupies a slot frequency range. Similarly, during a DL TDD slot, a DL UE receives a DL signal that occupies the slot frequency range. But during an SBFD slot, a UL UE transmits a UL signal that occupies only a first sub-band of the slot frequency range. Similarly, a DL UE receives a DL signal during an SBFD slot that occupies only a second sub-band of the slot frequency range. The second sub-band is distinct from the first sub-band. The DL UE may thus mitigate UE-to-UE interference during an SBFD slot by filtering the DL signal to substantially block the second sub-band from being received at the DL UE.

  • Patent number: 11984717
    Abstract: A protective circuit can include an AC line configured to provide power from an AC source, and a first protection circuit coupled to the AC line and implemented to be electrically parallel with a load circuit. The first protection circuit can be configured to be in an inactive state to be substantially non-conducting when a voltage across the load circuit is in a normal range or an active state to be substantially conducting when the voltage across the load circuit has an overvoltage value greater than the normal range to shunt power away from the load circuit. The protective circuit can further include a second protection circuit implemented to be electrically between the AC source and the load circuit. The second protection circuit can be configured to block power from the AC source in response to a condition resulting from the first protection circuit being in the active state.

  • Patent number: 11985001
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes a system for calculating meeting inclusion metrics including insights and recommendations. Meeting data associated with one or more meetings attended by at least one participant remotely is converted into anonymized meeting data for inclusivity metric analysis. An inclusivity insights manager generates inclusivity metrics associated with inclusive behavior and language occurring during meetings to measure the level of inclusivity. The inclusivity metrics include attendee participation metrics measuring an amount of participation by each meeting attendee, participation in-person versus participation remotely, concurrent speech indicating attendees may be talking over one another or other interruptions occurring during meetings. Inclusivity metric data includes insights and actionable recommendations to improve inclusivity at future meetings provided at an individual level, group level or organizational level.

  • Patent number: 11980541
    Abstract: Cartridges configured to hold anchors and associated locking sutures and a common suture used in an array of anchors. A suture anchor array is connected in series by a single working suture and each of the suture anchors allows tensioning of the working suture between itself and the prior anchor implanted in the serial string. Further, each anchor includes a suture lock having a free tail that can be pulled to lock the working suture in place subsequent to tensioning. This creates an independently tensioned suture bridge between each implanted suture anchor and the just previously implanted anchor. The cartridges are configured to securely hold an individual anchor and store the tail of the suture lock, while allowing flossing of anchors along the common suture.

  • Patent number: 11985425
    Abstract: A video may be captured by an image capture device in motion. A stabilized view of the video may be generated by providing a punchout of the video. The punchout of the video may compensate for rotation of the image capture device during capture of the video. The size of the punchout of the video may be changed based on different rotational positions of to provide a view that includes different extents of the captured visual content. The changes in the size of the punchout may simulate changes in zoom of the visual content.
