  • Publication number: 20240088155
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes source/drain regions, a gate structure, a first gate spacer, and a dielectric material. The source/drain regions are over a substrate. The gate structure is laterally between the source/drain regions. The first gate spacer is on a first sidewall of the gate structure, and spaced apart from a first one of the source/drain regions at least in part by a void region. The dielectric material is between the first one of the source/drain regions and the void region. The dielectric material has a gradient ratio of a first chemical element to a second chemical element.

  • Patent number: 11917230
    Abstract: A system and method for maximizing bandwidth in an uplink for a 5G communication system is disclosed. Multiple end devices generate image streams. A gateway is coupled to the end devices. The gateway includes a gateway monitor agent collecting utilization rate data of the gateway and an image inspector collecting inspection data from the received image streams. An edge server is coupled to the gateway. The edge server includes an edge server monitor agent collecting utilization rate data of the edge server. An analytics manager is coupled to the gateway and the edge server. The analytics manager is configured to determine an allocation strategy based on the collected utilization rate data from the gateway and the edge server.

  • Patent number: 11539661
    Abstract: Methods are taught for creating training data for a learning algorithm, training the learning algorithm with the training data and using the trained learning algorithm to suggest domain names to users. A domain name registrar may store activities of a user on a registrar website. Preferably, domain name searches, selected suggested domain names and domain names registered to the user are stored as the training data in a training database. The training data may be stored so that earlier activities act as inputs to the learning algorithm while later activities are the expected outputs of the learning algorithm. Once trained, the learning algorithm may receive activities of other users and suggest domain names to the other users based on their activities.

  • Patent number: 11381309
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide an optical communication system. The system may include a receiver lens system configured to receive a light beam from a remote optical communication system and direct the light beam to a photodetector. The system may also include the photodetector. The photodetector may be configured to convert the received light beam into an electrical signal, and the photodetector may be positioned at a focal plane of the receiver lens system. The system may also include a phase-aberrating element arranged with respect to the receiver lens system and the photodetector such that the phase-aberrating element is configured to provide uniform angular irradiance at the focal plane of the receiver lens system.
