Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein use channel state information (CSI) reports from a user equipment (UE) having additional CSI beyond CSI directly derived according to a current MIMO configuration between a base station and the UE. In some embodiments, a channel quality indicator (CQI) according to a selected layer of a plurality of layers used to receive the MIMO transmission as determined relative to the MIMO transmission is reported. In some embodiments, a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) according to a selected layer of a plurality of layers useable to receive rank 1 transmissions is reported along with a CQI determined according to that layer, or according to a layer used to receive the MIMO transmission as determined relative to the MIMO transmission. In some embodiments, a base station configures a UE to report more fulsome CSI according to each of a plurality of ranks.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for synchronized playback of different media content streams. The disclosed techniques may include determining, while certain audio content is being outputted, whether a triggering event has occurred at a media device. Responsive to a determination that the triggering event has occurred, audio information including identification information and a current output status of the audio content may be obtained, and a visual content stream for visual content corresponding to the audio content may be obtained. At the media device, the visual content stream may be processed based on the audio information to determine a starting time point indicating a time point within the visual content from which to start outputting the visual content. The visual content may be outputted such that the output of the visual content begins at the starting time point and is synchronized in time with the audio content.

Abstract: Recovering a user equipment (UE) from limited service due to misconfiguration may include providing a universal subscriber identity module (USIM) identification data or a USIM authentication data to a wireless network. Failure data associated with failing to authenticate or identify the UE to the wireless network may be decoded. The failure data received from the wireless network. The failure data may be processed to determine a cause for the failure. Based on processing the failure data, it may be determined that the USIM identification data or the USIM authentication data is misconfigured. In response to determining that the USIM identification data or the USIM authentication data is misconfigured, a recovery for identifying or authenticating the UE to the wireless network may be automatically performed.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to propagating context information from a first electronic device to a second electronic device. In one example, in response to detecting the second electronic device satisfies a distance criterion with respect to the first electronic device, the first electronic device determines whether propagation of the context to the second electronic device is permitted. If propagation of the context to the second electronic device is permitted and while the second electronic device satisfies the distance criterion with respect to the first electronic device, the context is transmitted to the second electronic device.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to intersection tests for ray tracing in graphics processors. In some embodiments, test circuitry is configured to perform intersection tests that operate on reduced-precision representations of rays that were generated by quantizing initial representations of the rays and reduced-precision representations of primitives that were generated by quantizing initial representations of the primitives. Some reduced-precision tests (e.g., for any-hit rays) may generate a definitive hit according to the initial representations. In this situation, graphics processing circuitry may record an intersection with the reduced-precision representation of the primitive for the ray based on the first result, without performing an intersection test for the first ray using the initial representation of the ray and the primitive. Disclosed techniques may advantageously reduce power consumption, improve performance, or both.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for device driver operation in non-kernel space. In one embodiment, an apparatus configured to configured to interface to a component device driver within non-kernel space is disclosed. The exemplary embodiment restricts device drivers to fewer privileges than kernel processes, while still providing acceptable real-time performance. In another embodiment, mechanisms for non-kernel space device driver operation are described. In one exemplary embodiment, a shared memory interface between kernel space and device drivers enables e.g., a zero-copy device driver architecture.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to improving memory reliability, e.g., in the context of memory circuits with limited reliability features. In some embodiments, memory controller circuitry is configured to communicate with memory circuitry via an interface that supports link error detection. The memory controller circuitry may, based on a corruption indicator, transmit a data and parity combination for the first data block that causes the memory circuitry to detect an uncorrectable write interface error. Subsequent reads of the location may therefore cause an uncorrectable error indication. This may advantageously allow the memory controller circuitry to propagate a corruption indicator as an uncorrectable error in the memory circuit, without requiring additional tracking of the indicator by the memory circuit or memory controller, in some embodiments.

Abstract: An electronic device such as a wearable electronic device may have a coil. The device may have a finger-ring housing that surrounds a finger-shaped opening to allow the device to be worn on a finger of a user. The coil may be formed from metal traces on a printed circuit that wrap around the finger-shaped opening. Near-field communications circuitry in the device may be used to gather near-field communications tag information. The tag information may be gathered in response to user input. Wireless communications circuitry that uses a non-near-field communications antenna may wirelessly transmit the tag information and/or other information such as user input to a companion device.

Abstract: A vector cumulative sum circuit can include a set of input registers, a carry-forward data source, a set of output registers, and a network of adder circuits coupling the input registers to the output registers such that the output value in a given output register is the sum of a value provided by the carry-forward data source and the input values from all of the input registers (in logical order) up to (and including) the corresponding input register. The value in the last output register can be carried forward to enable cumulative summing of a larger number of input values. The vector cumulative sum circuit can be implemented in a programmable processor, and a vector cumulative sum instruction can be defined in the instruction set. Using the vector cumulative sum circuit and instruction, filtering operations can be accelerated.

Abstract: A display may include illumination optics, a ferroelectric liquid crystal on silicon (fLCOS) panel, and a waveguide. The illumination optics may include a red, green, and blue light sources. The fLCOS panel may produce image light by modulating a series of image frames onto illumination light. Control circuitry may control the illumination optics to produce the illumination light for each image frame in the series of image frames according to a green-heavy illumination sequence that includes first, second, and third time periods. The green light source may be active during each of the first, second, and third time periods. This may allow the green light source to be driven with a lower current density than the other light sources without significantly reducing image quality at an eye box. The lower current density may match the peak efficiency of the green light source, thereby minimizing power consumption by the display.

A first inductor may couple the conductive display structure to the housing and may compensate for a distributed capacitance between the antenna arm and the conductive display structure. A second inductor may couple the antenna arm to the rear wall and may compensate for a distributed capacitance between the antenna arm and the rear wall. A speaker may be co-located with the antenna. A third inductor may couple the antenna arm to the rear wall to allow antenna currents to bypass the speaker.
