Abstract: A wireless power system has a wireless power transmitting device and a wireless power receiving device. The wireless power transmitting device uses a wireless power transmitting coil to transmit wireless power signals to the wireless power receiving device. The wireless power transmitting device determines whether an external object is present. The external object may be a foreign object such as a coin or paperclip or may be a wireless power receiving device. External objects are detected using quality-factor measurements. Wireless communications are used to discriminate between foreign objects and wireless power receiving devices. Quality factor measurements may be compensated for aging and temperature effects using temperature measurements and compensation factors based on frequency and measured resistance.

The gaps between the sets of antennas and the slip ring may enable wireless data transfer between the sets of antennas.

Abstract: A method for automatically reacting to an audience's vocal reaction during movie playback. A pre-recorded movie is obtained for playback through a display and a speaker. An audience vocal reaction during playback of an original scene in the movie is detected and in response the original scene is lengthened in both picture and sound while playback of the original scene is resumed once the audience vocal reaction has subsided. In another aspect, reverberation is generated in response to and based on the vocal reaction then added as audio output through the speaker, but only until the vocal reaction has ended at which point the added reverberation ends. Other aspects are also described and claimed.

Abstract: Beam determination refers to a set of procedures for an access node (AN) and a user equipment (UE) to select from among downlink communication beams and/or uplink communication beams for downlink and/or uplink communications, respectively. Often times, the downlink communication beams can include one or more downlink control channels, for example, a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and/or a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), to provide downlink reference signals, such as channel-state information reference signals (CSI-RSs), to the UE. The AN can execute various exemplary downlink beam scheduling procedures to control the transmission of the downlink reference signals, such as the CSI-RSs to provide an example, over the downlink communication beams. In some embodiments, the UE can utilize the CSI-RSs to perform beamforming failure detection (BFD) and beamforming failure recovery (BFR) in the wireless networks.
