Abstract: Embodiments relate to managing tasks that when executed by a neural processor circuit instantiates a neural network. A neural task manager circuit within the neural processor circuit can switch between tasks in different task queues. Each task queue is configured to store a reference to a task list of tasks for instantiating a neural network. Each task queue can also be assigned a priority parameter. While the neural processor circuit is executing tasks of a first task list and prior to completion of each task, the neural task manager circuit can switch between task queues according to the priority parameters for execution of tasks of a second task list by the neural processor circuit. The neural processor circuit includes one or more neural engine circuits that are configured to perform neural operations by executing the tasks assigned by the task manager.

One example aspect is a UE comprising one or more processors configured to: monitor a temperature of the UE via one or more temperature sensors and a power usage of the UE; determine a power status of the UE based at least in part on the temperature of the UE and the power usage of the UE; select, based at least in part on the determined power status, a power management stage of a plurality of power management stages; and implement one or more power management techniques associated with the selected power management stage. A notification can be triggered to alert a user that the processor is implementing the one or more power management techniques prior to implementation.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a conductive housing sidewall and a phased antenna array that conveys radio-frequency signals at frequencies greater than 10 GHz. Each antenna in the array may radiate through a respective aperture in the sidewall. The antenna module may include a folded flexible printed circuit having a first portion and a second portion that extends from an end of the first portion and that is folded with respect to the first portion. The antennas in the phased antenna array may have antenna resonating elements that are distributed between the first and second portions. Forming the antenna module from a folded flexible printed circuit in this way may serve to minimize the thickness of the antenna module, thereby allowing the antenna module to fit between a ledge of the sidewall and a rear housing wall without occupying excessive space within the device.

Abstract: Aspects and features include using a virtual disk image to improve computational performance when applying a software patch. Compressed extents within a stored disk image are detected. The compressed extents are virtually reordered to form compressed forks within a virtual disk image and the compressed forks are selected for decompression based on code to be patched. A decompressed fork with the patch is virtually written to the same or another virtual disk image as an updated fork, and the virtual disk image is used to write to storage, either to overwrite the same stored disk image or to produce an updated, compressed disk image. In some examples, the virtual disk image is validated prior to writing to the compressed image by comparing an output hash from the compressed disk image with a known hash to validate the virtual disk image.

Abstract: An earphone includes a housing that defines a force input surface opposite a touch input surface. A spring member in the housing includes a first arm that biases a touch sensor toward the touch input surface. The spring member also includes a second arm that biases a first force electrode toward the housing and allows the first force electrode to move toward a second force electrode when a force is applied to the force input surface. A non-binary amount of the force is determinable using a change in a mutual capacitance between the first force electrode and the second force electrode. The mutual capacitance between the first force electrode and the second force electrode may be measured upon detecting a touch using the touch sensor.

Abstract: A compute-memory circuit included in a computer system includes multiple data storage cells and multiplier circuits. The data storage cells store weight values associated with a first operand. The multiplier circuits are coupled to a global bit line and receive the weight values via local bit lines coupled to the data storage cells. Using the received weight values and activation signals indicative of a second operand, the multiplier circuits modify a voltage level of the global bit line. The resultant voltage level on the global bit line is indicative of a product of the first and second operands, and can be converted to a digital value using an analog-to-digital converter circuit.

Abstract: A multi-chip photonic assembly includes first and second photonic integrated circuits having first and second waveguides vertically stacked such that first vertical dimensions of the first and second waveguides occupy different horizontal planes in the stack. At least one of the first and second waveguides has a region that has a second vertical dimension that is larger than the first vertical dimension and either horizontally overlaps the other waveguide and/or vertically contacts the other waveguide. Light moving through one of the waveguides from the first vertical dimension to the other vertical dimension changes modes vertically so that the light moves from one waveguide to the other.

Abstract: The disclosure describes mechanisms for reliability enhancement on control channel and data channel and mechanisms in URLLC. An apparatus of a RAN node for URLLC includes baseband circuitry to configure at least one DCI for scheduling transmission of at least one PDSCH content having same information. For each DCI, the baseband circuitry determines a CORESET for transmitting the DCI. The disclosure further describes mechanisms for the support of low latency transmission in URLLC. To improve peak data rate and spectrum efficiency in FDD system, the RAN node configures a DCI for scheduling data transmission using blank resources of a self-contained slot structure. Further, CBG-based transmission with separate HARQ-ACK feedback is provided to configure a DCI for scheduling data transmission of a TB and to divide the TB into multiple CBGs, and to configure uplink control data to carry separate HARQ feedback for the CBGs.

Abstract: Imaging apparatus (22) includes a radiation source (40), which emits pulsed beams (42) of optical radiation toward a target scene (24). An array (52) of sensing elements (78) output signals indicative of respective times of incidence of photons in a first image of the target scene that is formed on the array of sensing elements. An image sensor (64) captures a second image of the target scene in registration with the first image. Processing and control circuitry (56, 58) identifies, responsively to the signals, areas of the array on which the pulses of optical radiation reflected from corresponding regions of the target scene are incident, and processes the signals from the sensing elements in the identified areas in order measure depth coordinates of the corresponding regions of the target scene based on the times of incidence, while identifying, responsively to the second image, one or more of the regions of the target scene as no-depth regions.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for RACH procedures to avoid excessive handover/secondary cell group failures. A base station may declare a handover and/or secondary cell group (SCG) failure and may determine that a failure threshold has been met. The base station may perform a remedial action in response to meeting the failure threshold. The failure threshold may be multi-dimensional, where a first dimension is associated with a number of handover/SCG failures and where a second dimension is associated with a time period in which the number of handover/SCG failures occurred. Further, a third dimension may be associated with a UE mobility state and a fourth dimension may be associated with whether the UE is using FR1 or FR2. The remedial action in response to meeting the failure threshold may include the base station suspending transmission of measurement object configurations for a specified period of time.
