Abstract: Wireless communications may comprise communications between a base station and a wireless device. A wireless device may perform beam failure recovery (BFR). Based on an indication of completion of the BFR, the wireless device may determine resources for transmission of uplink signals.

Abstract: Access to a linked resource may be protected using a time-based transformation of links to the resource. A linked resource may be transmitted to a browser in a markup language page. Information indicative of a time-based transformation of a link may be transmitted to the browser in the markup language page, or separately from the markup language page. The time-based transformation may be applied to the transmitted link. The transformed link may be requested, and compared to a version of the link that has been transformed, using the time-based transformation with respect to the time the request is received.

Abstract: Content streams may be segmented to provide automatic extraction and storage of content items without intervening commercials or other unrelated content. These content items may then be stored in a database and made accessible to subscribers through, for example, an on-demand service. Automatic segmentation may include the identification of program boundaries, segmentation of a content stream based on the boundaries and the subsequent classification of the segments into content types. For example, audio and video duplication detection may be used to identify commercials since commercials tend to repeat frequently over a relatively short amount of time. A system may further identify an end of program indicator in a video stream to determine when a program ends. Accordingly, if a program ends after a scheduled end time, a recording device (e.g., the program is being recorded) may automatically extend the recording time to capture the entire program.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for providing content. An example method can comprise receiving a first multicast content transmission at a first bit rate and recording at least a portion of a content item from the first multicast content transmission. An example method can comprise receiving a first request for the content item and requesting at least one differential content transmission configured to be combined with the recording of the portion of the content item to form a copy of the content item at a second bit rate.

Abstract: A content access device and system may allow portable remote devices to be paired with a variety of different devices, allowing remote control through a network connection. Content access devices may expose application program interfaces, allowing incoming network traffic to control operation of the device much in the same way that a local infrared remote would. Routing content commands through an external application server may also yield other benefits, such as allowing more customized selection of information and advertising content to users based on their viewing history.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for displaying additional or targeted content to a user are disclosed. An image or data capture device associated with a display device may capture an image of a space associated with the user or capture data related to what is being viewed by the viewer's eyes. Objects in the captured image or objects being viewed may be recognized, including any identifiable image, item, detail, or article and the like. A recognized object may then be compared to a target list to determine a match. If matched, and if there is additional content associated with the target object, the additional content may be presented to the user.

Abstract: Wireless communications may be used to support data processing. A plurality of resources may be indicated for a wireless device to use to communicate and/or process data. Data may be received and processed based on groups of the plurality of resources to be used. For example, the plurality of resources to be used may be associated with different resource groups.

Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for a microservices architecture for dynamic channel migration based on real time traffic load. Traffic loads on a first and second radio frequency (RF) channels used by a transceiver to communicate with a plurality of modem devices may be monitored, where the first RF channel is transmitted at a higher frequency than the second RF channel. Based on the monitored traffic loads of the RF channels, data traffic may be migrated from the first RF channel to the second RF channel. Finally, the plurality of modem devices may be notified of the migration.

Abstract: Wireless communications may be used to support data processing. Data processing may be performed based on a priority indication (or lack thereof) in a message for processing data. At least one parameter may be used to determine a priority associated with data processing if a message does not comprise a priority indication.

Abstract: User access to a physical location (e.g., a homes, businesses, or other locations) may be granted for certain limited tasks based on one or more access procedures stored in a registry and associated with an identity of the user. Such access may be given without including an interaction with an owner, administrator, or manager of the location. User individuals may self-identify themselves to an access server or registry after arriving at the premises and receive corresponding access privileges via one or more devices within the premises based on access procedures stored in the access registry. The access procedures may be executed by the access server through communications with access devices within or about the premises and may be tailored based on the type of user individual or type of access requested.

Abstract: The quality of stored content may be managed prior to output. A computing device may request and receive content segments for output via the computing device. The content segments may comprise content encoded at a first bit rate selected by the computing device. The first content segments may be stored in a memory of the computing device, such as a buffer, until output at their respective presentation times. If network conditions improve, the computing device may improve the quality of at least one of the first content segments stored in the memory. The quality may be improved by requesting a higher bit rate version of the content segment and replacing, in the memory, the first content segment with the higher bit rate version of the content segment. The quality of the first content segment may be improved by adding data to the first content segment.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses are described for sending different update times corresponding to a same version of a resource. A computing device may provide a version of a resource in response to requests from a plurality of different devices, and may indicate different update times for the version of the resource. The different update times may be based on times associated with the requests from the plurality of different devices.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to identifying a user consuming content so that the user can share information on a social network communication service. Aspects of the disclosure relate to detecting reactions to the content and transmitting information to a social networking service associated with the user.

Abstract: Data (e.g., images, video, data fields, character strings, logos, etc.) may be analyzed to identify common elements and differentiating elements, and the elements may be respectively transmitted using different streams. For example, if two devices are receiving two video images that are nearly the same, a first data stream comprising the one or more identified common elements may be sent to them both, a second data stream comprising a portion of the one or more identified differentiating elements may be transmitted to the first device, and a third data stream comprising a different portion of the one or more identified differentiating elements may be transmitted to the second device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for determining viewership of a content item are described herein. Machine learning techniques may be used to determine which user(s) among a user group at a multi-user location is consuming a content item. A machine learning model may be trained using demographic attributes and content attributes associated with a plurality of single-user locations. A probability engine may train a machine learning model using the demographic attributes and content attributes and one or more machine learning algorithms. The trained machine learning model may be used to determine which user(s) among at least two users is consuming a content item at a multi-user location at which multiple people reside.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for improved content scoring and delivery are described. A quality score for delivered content may be determined based on one or more output metrics. A first quality score may be provided to a content distribution network. The content distribution network may instruct the user device, or the user device may determine without receiving such an instruction, of methods/processes by which it may improve the one or more output metrics associated with output of the delivered content by adjusting one or more output parameters. The first quality score may also be used by the content distribution network to determine methods/processes by which network-related parameters and constraints may be managed in order to improve the quality of delivered content.

Abstract: A base station may communicate with a wireless device via a control channel group. Deactivation of a state of a control channel secondary cell, of the control channel group, may cause the wireless device to alter usage of the control channel group.
