  • Publication number: 20210295141
    Abstract: Systems and methods related to hardware-assisted gradient optimization using streamed gradients are described. An example method in a system comprising a memory configured to store weights associated with a neural network model comprising L layers, where L is an integer greater than one, a gradient optimizer, and a plurality of workers is described. The method includes during a single burst cycle moving a first set of gradients, received from each of the plurality of workers, from at least one gradient buffer to the gradient optimizer and moving weights from at least one buffer, coupled to the memory, to the gradient optimizer. The method further includes during the single burst cycle writing back the new weights, calculated by the gradient optimizer, to the memory. The method further includes during the single burst cycle transmitting the new weights, from the gradient optimizer, to each of the plurality of workers.

  • Publication number: 20210297270
    Abstract: An advance pairing system preemptively pairs a phone to a vehicle using a backend cloud system prior to establishing the connection with the vehicle, such as during the time that a user is purchasing a vehicle, or just after the user enters the vehicle for the first time. The system includes a mobile application for automated advance pairing with the vehicle's automotive computer. The mobile app sends a request for advance pairing to a server that assigns a set of unique keys to the account for secure pairing of the mobile device and the vehicle. The server pushes an encrypted payload to both the mobile device app and the vehicle advance pairing app operating on the automotive computer. The encrypted payload can include a unique vehicle ID, a unique mobile device ID, and one or more encryption keys. The mobile device and the vehicle use the encrypted advance pairing information to establish a secured connection with minimal user input.

  • Publication number: 20210296774
    Abstract: This document describes an integrated cellular and ultra-wideband antenna system for a mobile electronic device. The cellular and ultra-wideband antenna are located in close proximity to one another, along with a circuit designed to enhance isolation between the two antennas. The circuit is also designed to enhance the efficiency of the cellular antenna by permitting the ultra-wideband antenna to generate an additional resonance in the cellular band. The integrated cellular antenna and ultra-wideband antenna results in reduced mutual coupling and performance degradation of the antennas, and the cellular antenna may gain enhanced bandwidth and efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20210297936
    Abstract: During operation, a computer receives an attachment request from a radio node, where the attachment request is associated with an electronic device, and includes an identifier of the radio node, an identifier of the electronic device and an identifier of a service provider. Then, the computer determines a first entity identifier of an entity based at least in part on the identifier of the radio node and a second entity identifier of the entity based at least in part on the identifier of the electronic device. When the first entity identifier matches the second entity identifier, the computer performs authentication of the electronic device. Alternatively, if the entity identifiers are different, but the identifier of the service provider matches a stored identifier, the computer performs the authentication of the electronic device. Otherwise, the computer does not allow the electronic device to attach to a private or neutral-host network.
