  • Patent number: 10964028
    Abstract: A method for dividing an image obtains the image by captured and a depth map of the image. The method creates a histogram of the depth map including horizontal and vertical axes. A clustering algorithm is applied to the data in the histogram to determine upon two data clusters and the cluster centers of the two clusters. The method determines that the abscissa value of the smallest ordinate value between two cluster centers in the histogram is a segmentation threshold. If the obtained segmentation threshold meets a preset condition, the image is segmented into a foreground region and a background region. An electronic device for applying the method is also provided.

  • Patent number: 10966207
    Abstract: Radio circuitry controls wireless transmit power to User Equipment (UEs). The radio circuitry receives wireless signals generated using different Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) constellation sizes. The circuitry converts the wireless signals into data symbols and converts the data symbols into uplink data. The radio circuitry determines when average symbol error is excessive for a set of QAM constellation sizes. The radio circuitry determines when the UEs are concentrated in an inner coverage range. When both the average symbol error is excessive and the UEs are concentrated in the inner range, the radio circuitry reduces transmit power and transmits wireless signals to the UEs at the reduced transmit power. When the average symbol error is no longer excessive or when the UEs are no longer concentrated in the inner range, the radio circuitry increases transmit power and transmits wireless signals to the UEs at the increased power level.

  • Patent number: 10965523
    Abstract: A provisioning system receives network element information from a wireless communication network that characterizes a virtual network element. The provisioning system determines that the virtual network element is active and that a provisioning data link is not operational between the virtual network element and the provisioning system. The provisioning system determines a network address for the virtual network element. The provisioning system exchanges network signaling with the virtual network element using the network address to establish the provisioning data link. The provisioning system transfers provisioning data to the virtual network element over the provisioning data link.

  • Patent number: 10966073
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for premises device identification and characterization. In one embodiment, the premises devices are IoT (“internet of things”) devices having wireless interfaces, and the disclosed apparatus and methods “passively” canvass or assess a given premises as to its IoT profile, including both transparent and proxy-managed installations via a software-defined radio (SDR) device incorporated into a host device at the premises (e.g., DOCSIS modem, DSTB, wireless AP/router, or gateway). The SDR is controlled by logic operative to run on the host device (and optionally a network-side process), enabling the SDR to scan the RF environment within the premises in particular frequency bands typically associated with IoT devices and protocols. Information regarding each particular device is transmit to a network-side management process for use in populating the user's cloud-based EPG, selectively targeting advertising or other content to the premises, or yet other functions.
