  • Patent number: 11818704
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a device in wireless communication. In one embodiment, the UE first receives a first signaling, then receives a second signaling, and finally receives a first radio signal on target time-frequency resources; wherein the target time-frequency resources comprise time-frequency resources among second time-frequency resources other than first time-frequency resources, and the second signaling is used for determining whether the target time-frequency resources comprise the first time-frequency resources and the second time-frequency resources. The present disclosure makes effective use of the remaining time-frequency resources that transmit control information in a time interval less than 1 millisecond, thus improving resource utilization.

  • Patent number: 11804919
    Abstract: Two or more modules communicate over a common control network including receiving by a message packet having data defined by a signal level at defined bit quanta of a bit, the defined bit quanta being less than every bit quanta of a bit, and the communication device samples bit quanta other than the defined bit quanta. The module receives signal disturbances and decodes the signal disturbances as having a value different from an expected value of the certain bit. In another form, the module uses a first counter based on a clock local to the communication device and a second counter having a higher sampling rate than the first counter. Here, the module receives over the control network a synchronizing portion of a message and counts clock ticks of the second counter over a portion of the message to determine a clock rate for a module that transmitted the message.

  • Patent number: 11689326
    Abstract: The described techniques address the issues of latency and lengthy processing times associated with conventional redundant sensor measurement systems that rely upon digital transmission protocols by implementing a diverse analog sensor interface architecture. The described architecture may advantageously use a number of sensor measurement paths that may be independent of one another or share any suitable number of common components to provide varying levels of redundancy. The analog interfaces may provide signal diversity with respect to the use of different types of analog transmission protocols, which may include different signaling interfaces (e.g. differential versus single-ended), different transmission interfaces (e.g. voltage versus current interfaces), and/or the use of different signalization schemes.

  • Patent number: 11653375
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) operating according to full duplex (e.g., transmit and receive concurrently) may adapt a transmit power of a sidelink feedback message based on priorities of data messages. For example, the UE may determine a priority of a first data message received at the UE in a previous slot and a priority of a second data message transmitted to the UE in a previous slot. Based on a comparison of the priorities of the data messages, the UE may adjust a transmit power for a feedback message indicating a decoding outcome of the first data message and transmit the feedback message according to the adjusted transmit power while receiving a feedback message indicating the decoding outcome of the second data message thereby increasing efficiency while reducing interference.
