  • Patent number: 12010860
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application relate to illumination devices using luminescent nanostructures. An illumination device includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer and a material layer that includes a plurality of luminescent nanostructures. The hole transport layer and the electron transport layer are each disposed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The material layer is disposed between the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer and includes one or more discontinuities in its thickness such that the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer contact each other at the one or more discontinuities. Resonant energy transfer occurs between the luminescent nanostructures and excitons at the discontinuities.

  • Patent number: 12010309
    Abstract: A lossless coding mode is proposed in a video coding system comprising a plurality of coding tools, some being lossy by design, some of which can be adapted to become lossless or near lossless. To enable a lossless mode in such system, it is proposed to disable the tools that are lossy by design and use only lossless tools, to adapt some tools to enable lossless coding, and adapt some tools to enable near-lossless coding so that a secondary lossless coding may be applied after residual coding. In a specific embodiment, it is proposed to determine the type of residual coding by, when an information indicates that a transform skip residual coding is used, obtaining a flag representative of a special mode, and when this flag is true, determine that regular residual coding must be used instead of the transform skip residual coding that should be used.

  • Patent number: 12009907
    Abstract: A ground station processes downlink signals received from respective satellites. The ground station has a plurality of signal conditioning devices each receiving a respective one of the downlink signals and providing a conditioned downlink signal. A plurality of Doppler and/or Delay compensator devices each receive a respective conditioned downlink signal from a respective one of the plurality of signal conditioning devices. The compensator devices conduct Doppler and/or Delay compensation on the received conditioned downlink signal, and provide a compensated downlink signal output. A selector or diversity combiner receives the compensated downlink signal from each of the plurality of Doppler and/or Delay compensators.

  • Patent number: 12010577
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for lossless uplink data transmission of IAB network in a wireless communication system will be provided. A user plane (UP) of an integrated access and backhaul (IAB)-donor central unit (CU) in a wireless communication system receives, from a wireless device, uplink data through a source IAB-node. A UP of an IAB-donor CU receives, from the source IAB-node, at least one of a delivery status of the uplink data on the source IAB-node, wherein the wireless device handovers from the source IAB-node to a target IAB-node. A UP of an IAB-donor CU transmits, to a unit-control plane (CP) of the IAB-donor CU, a first message based on the at least one of the delivery status of the uplink data.
