Patent number: 11974105Abstract: A noise canceling audio in/out device includes an audible in/out transducer operable to convert an audible noise signal to a noise signal and convert an audio transmit (TX) signal to an audible output signal. A transducer signal of the audible in/out transducer generated by the audio TX signal is affected by the noise signal. The noise canceling audio in/out device further includes a noise canceling circuit operable to convert a digital TX signal to a TX reference signal, compare the transducer signal with the TX reference signal to produce an analog comparison signal, where the analog comparison signal includes a representation of the audio TX signal and the noise signal, and regulate the transducer signal to substantially match the TX reference signal to remove the effect of the noise signal on the transducer signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: SIGMASENSE, LLC.Inventors: John Christopher Price, Phuong Huynh, Daniel Keith Van Ostrand, Patrick Troy Gray

Patent number: 11157388Abstract: Identifying a trace based on wait chain coverage analysis comprises identifying a scenario covered by a plurality of traces, as well as a plurality of scenario phases. Each phase has corresponding phase beginning and ending, and is covered by corresponding trace(s) of the plurality of traces. For each prior instance of each phase, a corresponding wait chain comprising a series of wait operations is identified. After identifying signatures configured to match a subset of wait operations in wait chain(s), at least a signature coverage is calculated over the identified corresponding wait chains. The signature coverage characterizes portions(s) of these wait chains that are matched by the signature(s). Based on calculating the signature coverage, one or more of the plurality of traces are identified as having unknown wait states, based on the identified trace(s) corresponding to a larger amount of uncovered wait chain portions than others of the plurality of traces.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2020Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Scotia Clover Baker, Ilia Sacson, Deepthi Sri Dhulipalla, James Christopher Gray, Manikanta Reddy Dornala, Minxiao Zhou, Travis Alcantara, Yash Sharma, Vibhor Bhatt, Qi Zhang, Ishfaq Mohammad Ismail
