  • Patent number: 11984098
    Abstract: Embodiments include methods and devices for per layer motion adaptive over-drive strength control for a display panel. Various embodiments may include determining motion information associated with a frame layer, determining an over-drive strength factor for the frame layer based at least in part on the motion information associated with the frame layer, and determining whether the over-drive strength factor is associated with computing a content difference. Various embodiments may include, in response to determining that the over-drive strength factor is associated with computing a content difference, performing fragment shading on the framebuffer object for the frame layer to generate an over-drive compensated framebuffer object for the frame layer based at least in part on the over-drive strength factor, and outputting the over-drive compensated framebuffer object for the frame layer to a default framebuffer for rendering on the display panel.

  • Patent number: 11984976
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for interpreting reserved bits and values associated with different releases of a wireless communication protocol. In some implementations, a wireless communication device may determine whether to terminate or continue reception of a physical layer protocol convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) if it detects a reserved bit in the physical layer preamble set to an unsupported value (such as a value different than what is defined by a version or release of the wireless communication protocol supported by the wireless communication device). In some other implementations, a wireless communication device may determine whether to terminate or continue reception of a PPDU if it detects a field in the physical layer preamble set to a reserved value (such as defined by a version or release of the wireless communication protocol supported by the wireless communication device).

  • Patent number: 11985728
    Abstract: Improvements are provided to the paging process for an eMTC UE by allowing a base station and the UE to apply a UE-specific DRX cycle for paging, from one set of DRX cycles, when the UE is operating in non-CE mode and apply another UE-specific DRX cycle, from a more restricted set of UE-specific DRX cycles, when the UE is operating in a CE mode. A UE may report and apply certain UE-specific DRX cycles under non-CE mode, and may change a UE-specific DRX cycle to one from a more restricted set when operating in CE mode. Similarly, base stations may receive the reported UE-specific DRX cycle and apply that UE-specific DRX cycle for paging the UE in non-CE mode, while applying a different UE-specific DRX cycle from the more restrictive set for paging the UE in CE mode.

  • Patent number: 11985657
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may report, to a base station, a capability of the UE to support interleaving physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) messages. The base station may schedule two or more PUSCH transmissions having temporally overlapping durations based on the reported capability of the UE, and the UE may transmit interleaved PUSCH messages scheduled by the base station. In some cases, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) bundling may be enabled for PUSCH transmissions. A UE may be incapable of both performing DMRS bundling for PUSCH transmissions and transmitting interleaved PUSCH transmissions. In some case, a UE may disable DMRS bundling, drop a scheduled PUSCH transmission, transmit PUSCH messages sequentially (e.g., not interleaved), and/or indicate an error to the base station if the UE receives uplink grants scheduling two or more PUSCH transmissions having temporally overlapping durations.
