  • Patent number: 12133165
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for determining locations for range-extending devices. Signal strength between devices within an area may be measured one or more times over a time period. Based on the measurements, signal loss over fronthaul links and backhaul links may be determined for each range-extending device in the area. A predicted improvement in signal quality may be determined. A direction and distance to move each range-extending device may be determined based on a comparison with the fronthaul and backhaul signal qualities and the predicted improvement in signal quality. The direction, improvement in signal quality, and/or user preferences for devices may be used to determine an improvement associated with moving one or more range-extending devices.

  • Patent number: 12130800
    Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to monitoring and managing a health of a content processing data ingestion pipeline. In example embodiments, a plurality of content elements are ingested from a source to a destination through the ingestion pipeline, whereby the ingestion pipeline comprises a plurality of nodes between the source and the destination. A data management system detects a gap in the ingestion pipeline. The gap indicates a difference associated with a content element of the plurality of content elements between a first node and a second node of the ingestion pipeline. In response to detecting the gap, the data management system automatically triggers reingesting of the content element from the first node. The data management system also determines, based on monitoring of the ingestion pipeline, the health of the ingestion pipeline and provides a dashboard that graphically represents the health.

  • Patent number: 12133363
    Abstract: A heat-activated pump removes waste heat from an electronic chip. An evaporator integrated into the chip packaging receives heat from the chip, converting a working fluid into vapor. Piping from the evaporator to a heat exchanger and back form a fluid circulation system. A pressure-control valve set for a specified electronic operating temperature allows vaporized working fluid to vent into a liquid-piston chamber, where it expands adiabatically, displacing pumped liquid in a pumping stage and expelling it from the chamber through a unidirectional valve to the shared heat exchanger(s). The heat exchanger(s) has a heatsink transferring heat away to a flow of cooler fluid. The pumped liquid returns in a suction cycle to the chamber through another unidirectional valve. An injector valve returns jets of condensed working fluid to the evaporator in successive brief spurts responsive to periodic pressure pulses in the chamber.
