Abstract: One variation of a method for securing synthetic video conference feeds includes, during a setup period: accessing a target image depicting a face of a user; generating a face model based on a target set of facial features detected in the target image; and linking the face model to a target set of facial biometric values of the user. The method also includes, during an operating period succeeding the setup period: accessing a frame; deriving characteristics of a set of facial features detected in the frame; extracting a set of facial biometric values from the frame; in response to alignment between the target set of facial biometric values and the set of facial biometric values, generating a synthetic face image based on characteristics of the set of facial features, the face model, and a synthetic face generator; and rendering the synthetic face image in place of the frame.

Abstract: One disclosed example method includes a device receiving an audio signal recorded in a physical environment and applying a de-noise and de-reverberation model onto the audio signal to generate a cleaned audio signal. The de-noise and de-reverberation model is configured to remove noise and reverberation from the audio signal and is trained via a training process. The training process includes training the de-noise and de-reverberation model based on a trained de-noise teacher model and a trained de-reverberation teacher model. The training includes adjusting a portion of parameters of the de-noise and de-reverberation model based on values generated by the de-noise teacher model and the de-reverberation teacher model and then adjusting the parameters of the de-noise and de-reverberation model independently of the de-noise teacher model and the de-reverberation teacher model.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for interworking a user device in one or more wireless networks. In one embodiment, the apparatus and methods provide enhanced wireless services which enable operation of a given user device (e.g., a mobile 3GPP-compliant UE) within two or more mobile networks (e.g., PLMNs), such as a macro network and micro network. In one implementation, the UE contains multiple SIM cards to enable connection to different networks simultaneously. Accordingly, the UE can roam between two different networks seamlessly, regardless of whether the operators of each are independent or the same operator. Enhanced network capability as described herein advantageously allows for interworking between the macro and micro (e.g., small-cell) layers of the system without complicated network configuration requirements between the two operating networks as required under the prior art.

Abstract: A method for providing a differentiated feature to a first user equipment (UE) connected to a local area network (LAN) implemented by a router connected to a customer premises equipment (CPE) provisioned with a default feature associated with a first service tier of a plurality of service tiers provided by an internet service provider includes obtaining data indicating the first UE has connected to the LAN and determining the first UE is eligible for a second service tier of the different tiers. In response to determining the first UE is eligible for the second service tier, the method includes causing the CPE to be dynamically provisioned for a differentiated service associated with the second service tier. The method includes sending a message to the router to configure the router to provide the differentiated feature to the first UE.

Abstract: A first dual SIM user equipment (UE) has a first wireless connection to first Citizens Broadband radio Services Devices (CBSD) of a first network and a second wireless connection to a second CBSD of a second network. Different encryption and different frequency hopping patterns are used with regard to communicating the same voice packet information over the first and second wireless connections. The same voice information is attempted to be redundantly communicated over the two connections, e.g. concurrently or with a slight delay with regard to the two connections. The CBRS communications are typically less reliable than cellular licensed spectrum communications, and a particular encrypted voice packet may, and sometimes is lost; however, the redundancy is used to compensate for expected losses. Successfully recovered encrypted voice packets are sent from the CBSDs to a packet synchronizer which performs decryption and combines the recovered packets into a single packet stream.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure reduce visual artifacts and provide robust video signals to end-user equipment. According to an aspect, a system includes a splice point controller that analyzes video to detect and compensate for content boundary misalignments. The splice point controller can process video streams by analyzing splice point parameters and/or dynamically updating adjustment values associated with splice points to ensure appropriate transitions from primary content to secondary or alternate content. After determining an adjustment value for a splice point, the splice point controller can provide splice point adjustment feedback to a signal processing engine and/or to a secondary content source as part of synchronizing outputs of a transcoder farm and/or the secondary content source. For example, the splice point controller can operate to align a splice point adjustment value associated with an SCTE-35 descriptor with an actual live splice point time that is included with a live broadcast.
