  • System and method for providing grid-forming control of an inverter-based resource
    Patent number: 12009770
    Abstract: A method and associated system for providing grid-forming (GFM) control of an inverter-based resource (IBR) connected to an electrical grid include monitoring the electrical grid for grid events that cause a change in one or both of grid frequency and angle. Via a controller, an active power response of the IBR to the grid event is controlled by changing an angle of the IBR voltage relative to grid voltage in a manner so as to mimic an active power response of an IBR having a certain desired impedance that may similar to or different from a hardware impedance of the IBR itself.

    Abstract: A base station transmits, to a wireless device, configuration parameters of a secondary physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) group. The configuration parameters include a PUCCH secondary cell and a secondary cell. The base station transmits, during a first time interval, a command activating the secondary cell. The base station starts reception of channel state information, from the wireless device, for the secondary cell from a second time interval that is a positive number plus a pre-determined number of time intervals after the first time interval. In response to activation of the PUCCH secondary cell being completed in or after the pre-determined number of time intervals after the first time interval, the positive number is based on when the activation of the PUCCH secondary cell is completed by the wireless device.

  • Adaptive optimization of a content item using continuously trained machine learning models
    Patent number: 12008598
    Abstract: A processor receives requests for content items and identifies a first subset of machine learning (ML) models that satisfy a reliability criterion and a second subset of ML models that fail to satisfy the reliability criterion, wherein each ML model is associated with a respective content template and is trained to output a probability that a target associated with an input set of characteristics would perform a target action responsive to being presented with a content item generated based on the respective associated content template. The processing logic assigns each request to either a first group or a second group based on a ratio of a number of ML models in the first subset to a number of ML models in the second subset. For each request in the first group, the processor generates a content item based on a content template associated with the first subset.
