Abstract: Techniques for improved spatial reuse for wireless local area network (WLAN) networks are described. An access point (AP) may win a contention to a wireless medium and obtain a transmission opportunity (TXOP). The AP may perform a procedure to identify a group of un-managed APs for participation in spatial reuse opportunities for synchronous transmission over the TXOP. The AP may perform the procedure using over-the-air signaling. The AP may transmit a spatial reuse (SR) poll frame to one or more un-managed APs of the network, either sequentially or as part of a multiple-AP procedure. The AP may receive an SR response frame, or directly measure potential interference of a station (STA) serviced by one or more un-managed APs, and select a group of APs for coordinated reuse over the TXOP. The AP may select the group of APs based on one or more criteria for coordinated reuse.

Abstract: A system and method of open-world semi-supervised satellite object detection involves a machine learning engine configured with a training component and an inference component. The method of object detection detects objects in satellite imagery represents a solution for difficult challenges of arbitrary orientations, wide variation in object sizes, large number of densely packed objects, and highly complex background. A transformer network detects unknown objects in the satellite image. The transformer network includes a rotation-aware pyramidal pseudo-labeling operation that captures scale-specific pyramidal features at oriented box regions for pseudo-labeling unknown objects in the satellite image. A semi-supervised learning pipeline learns a new set of object classes to be detected. A prediction head outputs the satellite image annotated with a predicted object class for an unknown object.

Abstract: Techniques for measuring average inductor charging current in a switched-power circuit avoid incurring measurement delay or a requirement of a complex filter. An inductor charging current measurement circuit coupled to a power output stage of the switched-power circuit measures an average charging current in an inductor of the switched-power circuit using pair of capacitors to sample an output voltage of the power output stage at different cycle times of an inductor current waveform. The measurement circuit includes a switch that connects the pair of capacitors together to provide a measurement indicative of the average inductor charging current by sharing charge between the first capacitor and the second capacitor to provide the measurement voltage. The provided measurement voltage is indicative of an average of an estimated peak and an estimated valley of the inductor current waveform, which may be used to make determinations regarding a magnitude of the load current.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for providing uplink broadcast service connectivity via a wireless local area network (WLAN). In some implementations, a wireless device may transmit an uplink communication to an access point (AP) that supports uplink broadcast services, and the AP may forward the uplink communication to a remote destination indicated in the uplink communication. In some implementations, the wireless device may be in an unassociated state and may transmit the uplink communication without establishing a formal wireless session with the AP. The uplink communication may include a request for the AP to embed AP-provided data to the uplink communication before forwarding it the remote destination. This disclosure includes techniques to prevent flooding and unauthorized uplink communications being used for a denial of service attack on the remote destination.

Abstract: An edge computing platform with machine learning capability is provided between a local network with a plurality of sensors and a remote network. A machine learning model is created and trained in the remote network using aggregated sensor data and deployed to the edge platform. Before being deployed, the model is edge-converted (“edge-ified”) to run optimally with the constrained resources of the edge device and with the same or better level of accuracy. The “edge-ified” model is adapted to operate on continuous streams of sensor data in real-time and produce inferences. The inferences can be used to determine actions to take in the local network without communication to the remote network. A closed-loop arrangement between the edge platform and remote network provides for periodically evaluating and iteratively updating the edge-based model.

Abstract: Methods for a New Radio (NR)-based, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) are proposed to improve cell selection and reselection by using satellite assistance information. Different from traditional 5G New Radio systems, the LEO NTN can provide the next cell information along the satellite trajectory using System Information Broadcast (SIB). The assistance information can include satellite's long term ephemeris in the format of Position Velocity (PV) information or details of satellite's other orbital parameters. During TN-NTN join coverage, as TN cells are expected to have a better coverage then NTN cells, the network can assign higher priority to the TN cells over NTN cells. Similarly, for a mobility involving earth-fixed and earth-moving beams (cells), earth-fixed cells can be prioritized over earth-moving beams for cell reselection.

Abstract: A circuit for providing an alternating signal to a switching node. The circuit includes three power transistors, two capacitors, and two gate drivers. The first and second transistors are connected in series, with the switching node connected therebetween. When the first transistor is on and the second transistor is off, a high voltage is provided to the switching node via the first transistor. When the first transistor is off and the second transistor is on, a low voltage is provided to the switching node via the second transistor. The transistors are controlled via the gate drivers. Charge is provided to the gate drivers via the capacitors. The capacitors are charged via an intermediate power source, with the third power transistor connected in diode configuration between the two capacitors. The circuit is capable of withstanding high voltage differences across the transistors, and may be implemented monolithically on a same epitaxial stack.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for reliable delivery of enhanced broadcast services (EBCS) downlink (DL) packets to wireless stations (STAs) that support EBCS (also referred to as “EBCS STAs”) and maintaining interoperability with STAs that do not support EBCS. A wireless communication device may broadcast one or more EBCS DL packets carrying data associated with an EBCS service. In some aspects, the wireless communication device may subsequently transmit a trigger frame soliciting information indicating which, if any, of the EBCS DL packets were missed by EBCS STAs in the vicinity. In some other aspects, each EBCS DL packet may carry signaling indicating that the broadcast data is intended only for EBCS STAs. Still further, in some aspects, the wireless communication device may broadcast an EBCS traffic advertisement indicating a timing of the one or more EBCS DL packets.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing an incremental update to an existing datacenter on a cloud platform. The datacenter may have been built on a cloud platform according to a declarative specification that describes dependencies between datacenter entities in the datacenter. When an update is requested for the datacenter (e.g., by a customer or other entity), the system determines datacenter entities that are being changed in association with the update and execution dependencies associated with the update request. The system then initiates execution of the execution dependences and waits for the execution dependencies to be completed. Once the execution dependencies are completed, the system initiates orchestration of the datacenter in order to update the datacenter on the cloud platform with the addition or removal of datacenter entities on the datacenter.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to implementing an end-to-end orchestration for a datacenter on a cloud platform. A datacenter may be orchestrated on a cloud platform according to a declarative specification that describes dependences between datacenter entities (e.g., services) in the datacenter. Some datacenter entities may execution dependencies, which include activities, steps, or events that need to be completed for the datacenter entities to be ready for orchestration. Accordingly, in order for an orchestration workflow to be able to execute from beginning to end without interruption, all the execution dependencies for all the datacenter entities in the orchestration workflow need to be completed. The techniques disclosed include automatically initiating execution of the execution dependencies and waiting for indications that the execution activities are completed before executing the orchestration workflow.

Abstract: In various examples, one or more deep neural networks (DNNs) are executed to regress on control points of a curve, and the control points may be used to perform a curve fitting operation—e.g., Bezier curve fitting—to identify landmark locations and geometries in an environment. The outputs of the DNN(s) may thus indicate the two-dimensional (2D) image-space and/or three-dimensional (3D) world-space control point locations, and post-processing techniques—such as clustering and temporal smoothing—may be executed to determine landmark locations and poses with precision and in real-time. As a result, reconstructed curves corresponding to the landmarks—e.g., lane line, road boundary line, crosswalk, pole, text, etc.—may be used by a vehicle to perform one or more operations for navigating an environment.
