  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANAGING CAPABILITIES
    Publication number: 20230342289
    Abstract: An apparatus is described having processing circuitry for performing operations during which access requests to memory are generated. The processing circuitry generates memory addresses for the access requests using capabilities, where each capability indicates a pointer value and constraining information used to constrain access to memory using memory addresses derived from the pointer value. A marker indication field is stored in association with each capability to provide a marker value used to distinguish between static capabilities used to access statically allocated memory and dynamic capabilities used to access dynamically allocated memory.

  • Wireless spectrum management and optimization for dual transceiver operation
    Patent number: 11784724
    Abstract: An access point allocates resource units within a first channel to mitigate interference from an adjacent second channel. The access point obtains a measure of signal strength corresponding to each wireless device attached to an access point, and assigns, for each wireless device, resource units with a first frequency band of the first channel to mitigate interference with a second frequency band of a second channel adjacent to the first channel. An assignment between a set of resource units and a particular wireless device is based on the measure of signal strength corresponding to the particular wireless device. The access point communicates with the wireless devices on the resource units.

  • Methods of and apparatus for locating energy harvesting devices in an environment
    Patent number: 11777445
    Abstract: When placing an energy harvesting electronic device in an environment, such as a room, the amount of light energy that will be available at different locations in the environment is predicted (34) by using a physically based lighting model to simulate the interaction of light from light source or sources in the environment with the geometry in the environment. The predicted amount of light energy at different locations in the environment is then used to generate a display (42) to the user indicating the suitability of locations in the environment for a light energy harvesting electronic device that is to be placed in the environment.

  • CORRELATING DEVICES AND CLIENTS ACROSS ADDRESSES
    Publication number: 20230254687
    Abstract: Correlating devices and clients across addresses may be provided. A first address associated with a client device may be received. When the client device is not connected to a network, first location data associated with the first address may be obtained using a passive technique. A second address and second location data associated with the second address may then be obtained using an active technique. It may then be determined that the first location data and the second location data correlate.
