Abstract: Data is scrambled at a transmitter according to one of a number of predetermined scrambling sequences which are associated with a particular one of a number of predetermined transmit antenna diversity schemes (i.e., a specific number of transmit antenna ports). Received data is decoded using one or more of the known transmit antenna diversity schemes and the scrambled data is descrambled according to a corresponding descrambling sequence (related to the scrambling sequence). Based on the descrambled data, the receiver determines which transmit antenna diversity scheme (i.e., the number of antenna ports) is used by the transmitter. In one specific embodiment, CRC parity data is scrambled in the transmitter and the receiver descrambles the recovered CRC parity data according to a descrambling sequence, computes CRC parity data from the received data, and compares the descrambled CRC parity data to the newly computed CRC parity data.

Abstract: In some implementations, a method of wireless communications between a wireless communications network and wireless user equipment includes receiving, using a primary Time Division Duplex (TDD) configuration, data on a primary component carrier in a first frequency band. Using a secondary TDD configuration, data on a secondary component carrier is received in a second frequency band different from the first frequency band. A Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) for data received on the secondary component carrier is transmitted using a supplemental TDD configuration. A transmission or retransmission on the secondary component carrier uses a supplemental TDD configuration as well. The supplemental TDD configuration is different from the secondary TDD configuration. Furthermore, an uplink supplemental configuration may be different from a downlink supplemental configuration.

Abstract: In some examples, a sensor service receives an indication of interest from a client for sensor data of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors, and allocates buffers in the memory for the plurality of sensors. The sensor service provides a first buffer to a sensor connector that is to receive the sensor data from the first sensor, and receives, from the sensor connector, an indication that the first buffer in the memory has been written with the sensor data from the first sensor. Based on the indication of interest from the client, the sensor service notifies the client that the first buffer is available for reading by the client from the memory.

Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamically routing pulse-code modulated (PCM) audio subchannels to one or more sink devices using a software-based router. The PCM router may set a pre-conversion buffer in the conversion path to a sink device for a particular subchannel if the source PCM fragment size differs from the sink fragment size. It may also compare characteristics of the audio subchannel to the sink device to identify a mismatch and, on that basis, configure the conversion path to include a sample rate converter, a channel converter, or a format converter, as needed. Subchannels can be dynamically routed to two or more sink devices and routing may be changed during playback.
