Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for enabling aerial vehicle navigation in GPS-denied areas. The system may use a camera to record images of terrain as the aerial vehicle is flying to a target location. The system may then detect (e.g., using a machine learning model) objects within those images and compare those objects with objects within an electronic map that was loaded onto the aerial vehicle. When the system finds one or more objects within the electronic map that match the objects detected within the recorded images, the system may retrieve locations (e.g., GPS coordinates) of the objects within the electronic map and calculate, based on the coordinates, the location of the aerial vehicle. Once the location of the aerial vehicle is determined, the system may navigate to a target location or otherwise adjust a flight path of the aerial vehicle.

Abstract: Technologies for signaling compression inside a partially unrolled decision feedback equalizer (DFE) are described. The signaling compression associated with partially unrolled DFE results in multiplexers selecting a 1-bit output value from one of two 1-bit input values, which are decoding the actual multi-bit candidate levels and transforming the selected 1-bit output value to a multi-bit sliced value by adding to it a pointer value of a pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) level. The signaling compression reduces the power and area of an N-tap DFE, where N is a positive integer.
