Abstract: A station (STA) transmits to an access point (AP) a setup request frame indicating one or more first traffic identifiers (TIDs) associated with a trigger-enabled restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service period (SP). The STA receives from the AP a setup response frame indicating one or more second TIDs associated with the trigger-enabled r-TWT SP. The STA receives from the AP a first frame indicating a trigger-enabled r-TWT SP for the STA. Based on not receiving a second frame from the AP during a first time period within the trigger-enabled r-TWT SP, the STA transmits a non-trigger based frame following the first time period. The non-trigger based frame causes termination of the r-TWT SP.

The processor may perform a second coordinate transformation on the training-frame velocity estimate to obtain a runtime-frame velocity estimate and may output the runtime-frame velocity estimate to a target program.

Abstract: This disclosure describes apparatuses and techniques for a switched multi-cell battery system for electronic devices. In some aspects, a switched multi-cell battery system may transfer, via a plurality of power control switches electrical power from a power adapter to components of the electronic device by charging battery cells in series and by discharging the battery cells in parallel or as a single battery cell. As a result, the switched multi-cell battery system may reduce or eliminate a voltage step-down conversion stage to increase a power-transfer efficiency of an electronic device. By doing so, charging times may be reduced or operating times may be increased, thereby improving users' experience with their electronic devices.

Abstract: Techniques and tools for encoding enhancement layer video with quantization that varies spatially and/or between color channels are presented, along with corresponding decoding techniques and tools. For example, an encoding tool determines whether quantization varies spatially over a picture, and the tool also determines whether quantization varies between color channels in the picture. The tool signals quantization parameters for macroblocks in the picture in an encoded bit stream. In some implementations, to signal the quantization parameters, the tool predicts the quantization parameters, and the quantization parameters are signaled with reference to the predicted quantization parameters. A decoding tool receives the encoded bit stream, predicts the quantization parameters, and uses the signaled information to determine the quantization parameters for the macroblocks of the enhancement layer video. The decoding tool performs inverse quantization that can vary spatially and/or between color channels.

Abstract: A split volute for a centrifugal pump is disclosed that provides a manufacturing advantage by improving the yield of high-chrome iron casting, providing for full surface coating capability using line-of-sight spray coating systems. Performance improvements include improved pump efficiency, abrasion resistance, and volute lifetime. Additional operational cost savings are enabled through reduced time required for common volute maintenance procedures and an increased replacement interval for the volute. Taken together, these advantages reduce the total cost of ownership of the split volute pump system.
