  • Publication number: 20220182129
    Abstract: A search and rescue (from hereon, SAR) optimization/prevention system is set forth, for ensuring the safety and connectivity of people in locations such as but not limited to national parks, hiking trails, mountains, lakes, rivers, forests, and other areas that do not receive (or receive inconsistently) reliable cellular, satellite, or GPS network connectivity. The mesh network system comprises wearable devices used by the person being located, and transceivers responsible for getting a signal from the user to a responder via the bouncing of a signal. Once a signal is received at a designated transceiver, the system may output information about the at least approximate location and condition of the user that transmitted the signal, including the approximate location, time of distress, and other pertinent data, based on information carried in the signal.

  • Publication number: 20220180659
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and systems for authentication management through IMU and radar. The techniques and systems use inertial sensor data from an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and/or radar data to manage authentication for a computing device. By so doing, the techniques conserve power, improve accuracy, or reduce latency relative to many common techniques and systems for computing-device authentication.

  • Publication number: 20220179469
    Abstract: A power supply signal conditioning system includes a power supply, one or more loads, and a drive-sense circuit (DSC). The power supply is operably coupled to one or more loads. When enabled, the power supply configured to output a power supply signal having a DC (direct current) voltage component and a ripple voltage component that is based on conversion of an AC (alternating current) signal in accordance with generating the power supply signal. The DSC is operably coupled to the power supply. When enabled, the DSC is configured simultaneously to sense the power supply signal and, based on sensing of the power supply signal, adaptively to process the power supply signal in accordance with reducing or eliminating the ripple voltage component of the power supply signal to generate a conditioned power supply signal to service the one or more loads.

    Abstract: A memory apparatus and method of operation is provided. The apparatus includes a block having memory cells connected to word lines and arranged in strings and is divided into a first sub-block and a second sub-block each configured to be erased as a whole in an erase operation. The apparatus has a temperature measuring circuit configured to detect an ambient temperature of the apparatus. A control circuit is configured to determine a word line inhibit voltage based on the ambient temperature. The control circuit applies an erase voltage to each of the strings while simultaneously applying a word line erase voltage to the word lines associated with a selected one of the first and second sub-blocks to encourage erasing and the word line inhibit voltage to the word lines associated with an unselected one of the first and second sub-blocks to discourage erasing in the erase operation.

  • Publication number: 20220182873
    Abstract: Various embodiments comprise systems, methods, architectures, mechanisms and apparatus for managing user equipment (UE) communications in a converged network by causing such UE to automatically select a “best” wireless network (cellular RAN/WiFi) without any user notification/interaction to the user of the UE, such as via the device user interface (UI). The best wireless network may be determined using contemporaneous QoS related measurements, or predicted QoS measurements such as provided by a RAN node or channel QoS model generated via machine learning techniques, which may also be used to determine a type of QoS needed for each application or service commonly invoked at the UE so as to automatically provide the best possible user experience without any user intervention.
