Abstract: An acoustic sensor assembly includes a housing having an external-device interface and a sound port to an interior of the housing. An electro-acoustic transducer and an electrical circuit are disposed within the housing. The electro-acoustic transducer separates the interior into a front volume and a back volume, where the sound port acoustically couples the front volume to an exterior of the housing. The back volume includes a first portion and a second portion. The electrical circuit is electrically coupled to the electro-acoustic transducer and to the external-device interface. One or more apertures acoustically couple the first and second portions of the back volume and are structured to shape a frequency response of the acoustic sensor assembly.

Abstract: A server system including a plurality of servers achieves redundancy on a per process basis. A first server and a second server execute a plurality of processes in parallel. Processes (B1-1, B2-1, and Br-1) in the first server are active processes, and processes (B1-2, B2-2, and Br-2) in the second server are standby processes. The active process periodically transmits an operation notification notifying normal operation, to the standby process. When no longer receiving an operation notification from the active process, the standby process switches an operation mode of the standby process from a standby mode to an active mode and starts provision of service of the process. The process switching is performed on a per process basis instead of on a per server basis.

Abstract: Methods and devices are arranged for managing reset and re-downloaded profiles Over-the-Air on an eUICC. An operator system imports a profiles list from a server, each entry in the list comprising a flag indicating whether the corresponding profile has been downloaded onto the eUICC. Upon receiving, from a mobile network operator, MNO, a request to update a profile on the eUICC, the request comprising a profile identifier and an OTA campaign, the operator system performs a backlog of the OTA campaign for the profile indicated by the profile identifier under consideration of the flag in the corresponding profile entry.

Abstract: Some disclosed systems and methods include assigning channel streams to satellite playback devices, delaying initial transmission of surround sound content to satellite playback devices to accumulate audio samples for transmission in individual frames of surround sound content, and taking advantage of configured playback delays for different channels of surround sound content to prioritize transmission of channels of surround sound content having shorter configured playback delays over transmission of channels of surround sound content having longer configured playback delays.

Abstract: A loudspeaker system (700 or 800) and method for tuning ported loudspeakers and reducing unwanted acoustic resonances provides reduced port noise, eliminates undesired port resonances and improves the accuracy and fidelity of reproduced sound in a loudspeaker system of relatively high efficiency with an enclosure including an Eigen Tone Filter structure (“ETF”) comprising a pipe or set of pipes 720, 820 placed inside a loudspeaker vent to absorb the “open pipe” acoustic resonance of the vent. The open-pipe resonance is unwanted and interferes with the midrange performance of the loudspeaker, when in use, if not corrected.
