Abstract: In an example, a rectifier circuit includes first and second capacitors, first and second current control devices, and a switch. The first current control device is configured to provide an input current to the first capacitor during a positive cycle of an alternating current (AC) input voltage. The second capacitor is configured to store a charge and the switch is configured to couple the second capacitor to a ground terminal so the second capacitor discharges a capacitor current during the positive cycle of the input voltage responsive to the stored charge in the second capacitor. The second current control device is configured to provide the capacitor current to the first capacitor during the positive cycle of the input voltage. The first capacitor is configured to store a charge responsive to the input current and the capacitor current.

Abstract: An apparatus comprises a transceiver (Tx/Rx) printed circuit board (PCB) with a top surface and a bottom surface and a power supply PCB. The Tx/Rx PCB includes two transmitter devices, each comprising a number N of channels. A first transmitter device is arranged on the bottom surface and a second transmitter device is arranged on the top surface over the first transmitter device. One or more pins of the second transmitter device are shorted with one or more pins of the first transmitter device with the same function. An analog front end (AFE) device comprising N input channels is arranged on the top surface of the Tx/Rx PCB, and a digital signal processor is coupled to the AFE device. The power supply PCB comprises a power supply module configured to provide a plurality of supply voltages to the Tx/Rx PCB and the power supply PCB.

Abstract: Systems and methods are used for receiving a video request from a user equipment for video to be downloaded; determining a link bandwidth status associated with the user equipment; in response to the link bandwidth status associated with the user equipment, determining whether to implement one or more additional processing functions associated with the video delivery; during the video delivery, repeating the determining such that the one or more additional processing functions associated with the video delivery can be implemented or not implemented at different times during the video delivery. These processing functions can include transrating, HTTP optimization, TCP optimization, and video pacing.

Abstract: A method of performing a touch action in a touch-sensitive device is provided. The method includes detecting a shape of a contact area associated with a touch input provided on a touch screen, determining whether the detected shape is valid based on a predetermined criteria, detecting a gesture based on a movement of a validated shape, determining whether the detected gesture is valid by matching the detected gesture with one or more predefined gestures, and performing the touch action based on a determination that the detected gesture is valid and a determination that the detected shape is valid.

Abstract: A usage model and the underlying technology used to provide sequence analysis as part of a relational database system. Included components include the semantic and syntactic integration of the sequence analysis with an existing query language, the storage methods for the sequence data, and the design of a multipart execution scheme that runs the sequence analysis as part of a potentially larger database query, especially using parallel execution techniques.
