Publication number: 20240364935Abstract: Techniques and tools for reducing latency in video encoding and decoding by constraining latency due to reordering of video frames, and by indicating the constraint on frame reordering latency with one or more syntax elements that accompany encoded data for the video frames. For example, a real-time communication tool with a video encoder sets a syntax element that indicates a constraint on frame reordering latency, which is consistent with inter-frame dependencies between multiple frames of a video sequence, then outputs the syntax element. A corresponding real-time communication tool with a video decoder receives the syntax element that indicates the constraint on frame reordering latency, determines the constraint on frame reordering latency based on the syntax element, and uses the constraint on frame reordering latency to determine when a reconstructed frame is ready for output (in terms of output order).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2024Publication date: October 31, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventor: Gary J.

Publication number: 20240363261Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for cyclical enrichment, especially of rare earth elements and isotopes. A tube, or ampule, optionally with one crucible, or with two coaxially opposite crucibles in fluid communication, is used to hold a source material in vacuum and irradiate the source material to enrich it with product material. Following the irradiation of the source substance (e.g., Yb, enriched with 176Yb) to yield the product substance (e.g., 177Lu), the mixture may be sublimated to remove most of the source substance and concentrate the product material, e.g., by heating the lower part and cooling the upper part of the tube, to condense sublimated source material at the top of the tube. Consecutively, the concentrated product substance may be purified, while the solidified source structure may be reused in irradiation/sublimation cycles to further enrich and concentrate the product material.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2024Publication date: October 31, 2024Applicant: CVF International LLCInventors: Pavel MOSEEV, Aleksandr KLACHKOV, Roman TERTYCHNYY, Aleksandr KHASIN

Publication number: 20240364376Abstract: Techniques and devices for spatial averaging of transmission power to reduce power cutbacks are described. The techniques of spatial averaging may enable separate determinations of transmit power capacities for each antenna of a computing device if each antenna is spaced apart from a neighboring antenna by a minimum distance. The transmit power capacities may be based on transmit power limits and, in general, may be determined independently from, or with reduced dependence on, a transmit power of another antenna. These separate determinations may allow for spatial averaging of transmission power of a device to improve antenna-switching decisions and reduce a dependence upon power cutbacks. When power cutbacks are unavoidable, the separate determinations may additionally improve antenna-switching decisions at cutback powers to optimize the transmission power of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2021Publication date: October 31, 2024Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Gregory Redmond Black, Robert S.
