Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for delivery stimulation to targeted deep brain structures by supplementing existing method using external electrodes with transnasal electrodes, disposed, for example, in the olfactory cleft and within the hyenoid sinus, or, more broadly, in the nasal cavity and/or in the sinuses, including, but not limited to, the frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoid sinus, etc. The method allows stimulation and/or sensing in deep brain regions which can be inaccessible from the scalp or for which existing methods are ineffective in targeting. The method can also be used for power delivery to implants that might be placed inside the brain or on its surface.

Abstract: Consistent with disclosed embodiments, systems, methods, and computer readable media for reading wireless transmitting tags and for automatically generating product distribution planograms may be provided. Embodiments may include at least one processor configured to receive, from a plurality of receivers in an establishment, wireless signals from a plurality of wirelessly tagged products; determine, from the wireless signals, locations in the establishment of each wirelessly tagged product; perform a lookup of an ID of each wirelessly tagged product to determine product classification information associated with each product; and generate a planogram for the establishment using the determined locations of the wirelessly tagged products and the determined product classification information, the planogram indicating on a map of the establishment locations of groups of the wirelessly tagged products sharing common classification information.

Abstract: An embodiment involves receiving a request to write data to a memory unit. The memory unit is divided into one or more logical blocks, each subdivided into groups of sub-blocks encrypted in accordance with a stream cipher. The memory unit maintains a transaction journal that marks each sub-block as dirty or clean. The memory unit stores keycount values for each of the logical blocks. The embodiment also involves: determining that the request seeks to write a portion of the data to a particular sub-block marked as dirty in the transaction journal, decrypting the particular logical block in accordance with the stream cipher, writing the portion of the data to the particular sub-block, incrementing the keycount value of the particular logical block, encrypting the particular logical block using the stream cipher, a key, and the keycount value, and writing the particular logical block to the memory unit.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for mitigating interference between two channels in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. A method includes activating two, first and second communication channels in a vehicle, and mitigating interference when the two channels operate concurrently. The first communication channel may be a V2X safety channel and the second communication channel may be a WiFi or V2X non-safety channel. Apparatus used to perform the method includes an interface between two, first and second modems, each modem coupled through two transceivers to two antennas, the interface used for coordinating between the first and second modems to mitigate interference between the first communication channel and the second communication channel.

Abstract: System and methods for plausibility check in vehicle-to-everything dynamic environments in which a local vehicle communicates with remote vehicles. The system comprises means for obtaining a measured RSSI from a specific remote vehicle, and a modified plausibility check unit configurable and operable to apply a dynamic RSSI model to detect implausible positioning of the specific remote vehicle and/or of the local vehicle based on the measured RSSI of the specific remote vehicle and on a RSSI calculated for the specific remote vehicle. Decisions on respective further actions to be performed by the specific remote vehicle and by the local vehicle are made based on respective plausibility checks applied to both vehicles using the dynamic RSSI model.

Abstract: Method and system for obtaining positioning of nodes in a wireless local access network (WLAN), comprise, by an initiator node of the WLAN, calculating a compensated time-of-flight (ToF) of messages exchanged between the initiator node and a target node and calculating a distance of the target node relative to the initiator node using the compensated ToF, thereby obtaining relative positioning between the initiator and target nodes. The compensated ToF is calculated using OFDM symbol slope inputs measured at the initiator and target nodes. Each node is associated with an enhanced WLAN unit adapted to measure and calculate the compensated ToF.

Abstract: A device and method of predistortion linearization that account for both EVM and spectral mask are disclosed. The device and method are based on transforming the predistorter optimization problem from the time domain to the frequency domain, and weighting the equations according to one or more desired objectives. One objective focuses on abiding by the spectral mask, whereas another objective focuses on improving the EVM.

Abstract: A device and method of fast automatic gain control in quadrature receivers are disclosed. The AGC activity between the I and Q branches is split where in one branch the receive chain is in a certain gain state and in the other branch the receive chain is in another possible gain state, resulting in a significant shortening of the AGC duration of any IQ receiver.
