    Abstract: Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for multiply-accumulate operation. In one aspect, an input operand is received by control circuitry. In one aspect, the control circuitry determines a sparsity of the input operand, where the sparsity may indicate whether a value of the input operand has a predetermined value or not. In one aspect, the control circuitry determines a stationarity of the input operand, where the stationarity may indicate whether the value of the input operand changes over one or more clock cycles. In one aspect, the input operand is provided to multiply-accumulate circuitry as an input, according to the determined sparsity and stationarity of the input operand.

  • Error correction for display device
    Patent number: 11302234
    Abstract: A display device has an image processing unit that determines an error for a pixel location that is based on the difference between an input color dataset and an output color dataset. The error is fed back to the image processing unit to propagate and spread across other neighboring pixel locations. In generating the output color dataset, an error-modified dataset that includes the input dataset and the error may first be generated. The error-modified dataset is examined to ensure the color values fall within the display gamut. The color dataset is also quantized and dithered to make the output dataset having a bit depth that is compatible with what the light emitters can support. Lookup tables and transformation matrices may also be used to account for any potential color shifts of the light emitters due to different driving conditions such as driving currents.

  • Self-optimizing network entity for a telecommunications system
    Patent number: 11304149
    Abstract: Certain features relate to systems and methods for optimizing the radio frequency characteristics of signals transmitted between a radio base station (RBS) and a distributed antenna system (DAS). A self-optimizing network (SON) entity can determine adjustments to radio frequency operations and management parameters at the RBS based on radio frequency parameters measured by a measurement and configuration module at the DAS. Adjustments to radio frequency operations and management parameters can include adjustments configured to compensate for signal latency caused by the DAS. Adjustments to radio frequency operations and management parameters can also include adjustments to signal gain due to noise rise caused by the DAS. The SON entity can also measure nominal receive power levels for the RBS for purposes of open loop power control.
