  • Publication number: 20210242785
    Abstract: A load control device for controlling the amount of power delivered to an electrical load (e.g., an LED light source) includes first and second semiconductor switches, a transformer, a capacitor, a controller, and a current sense circuit operable to receive a sense voltage representative of a primary current conducted through a primary winding of the transformer. The primary winding is coupled in series with a semiconductor switch, while a secondary winding is adapted to be operatively coupled to the load. The capacitor is electrically coupled between the junction of the first and second semiconductor switches and the primary winding. The current sense circuit receives a sense voltage and averages the sense voltage when the first semiconductor switch is conductive, so as to generate a load current control signal that is representative of a real component of a load current conducted through the load.

  • Publication number: 20210243087
    Abstract: A wireless device receives RRC message(s) comprising a first configuration parameter of a first SPS configuration, a second configuration parameter of a second SPS configuration, and a third configuration parameter. The first configuration parameter may indicate a first HARQ codebook identifier. The second configuration parameter may indicate a second HARQ codebook identifier. The second HARQ codebook identifier may be the same as the first HARQ codebook identifier. The third configuration parameter may indicate a state that is mapped to the first SPS configuration and the second SPS configuration. A DCI may be received. A value of bit(s) of a HARQ process number field of the DCI may indicate the state. The wireless device may deactivate the first SPS configuration and the second SPS configuration in response to receiving the DCI. An acknowledgement may be transmitted.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides a method for determining male fertility status, and its relationship to the probability of generating a pregnancy as calculated using a regression model. The method comprises determining GM1 localization patterns following induced sperm capacitation, identifying the percentage of various patterns, particularly the ratio of [(AA+APM)/total number of GM1 localization patterns] and determining if the percentage of certain GMI localization patterns in response to induced capacitation is altered. Based on the change in the percentage of localization patterns of certain patterns in response to induced capacitation, alone or in combination with other sperm attributes, male fertility status can be identified.

  • Publication number: 20210242261
    Abstract: An imaging device may include single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). The single-photon avalanche diodes may be arranged in an array of microcells (such as a silicon photomultiplier). Each microcell may have an aspect ratio that is greater than 1. Each microcell may be covered by a microlens that also has an aspect ratio that is greater than 1. The microlens may have curvature in a first direction (parallel to the width of the microcell/microlens) and less curvature in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction (parallel to the length of the microcell/microlens). Forming non-square, rectangular microcells and microlenses in this fashion may allow for larger microcells that still have satisfactory microlens performance.

    Abstract: An audience measurement service may monitor broadcasts in a region, ingesting closed captioning data, metadata, displayed text or logos, performing facial recognition on people, and/or generating audio/video fingerprints of broadcast content to create a database of content and associated keywords, along with times at which the content was broadcast. The audience measurement service may receive user search queries from a search provider and detect “spiking” queries. The audience measurement service may determine whether the spiking queries are related, contextually and temporally, to an item of content identified in the database, and infer that users generating the queries likely viewed the item of content. In some implementations, the audience measurement service may also infer that the users likely viewed other items of content (e.g. advertisements) displayed during the prior or subsequent few minutes on the same broadcast channel as the query-triggering item.
