  • Publication number: 20250121691
    Abstract: Vehicles and related systems and monitoring methods are provided for detecting a loss of isolation on one side of a power converter. One method involves monitoring a normalized voltage input to a power conversion module coupled to the electric motor, in response to the normalized voltage exceeding a diagnostic activation threshold, determining a first number of instances of a range between successive extremas of the normalized voltage exceeding a loss of isolation range threshold over a diagnostic window of time, and automatically initiating a remedial action when the first number is greater than a loss of isolation detection threshold.

  • Publication number: 20250126535
    Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may comprise a processor. The processor may be configured to receive (e.g., via broadcast) configuration information indicating a time that a same-PCI satellite switch may occur. In one or more examples, the WTRU may transmit assistance information prior to the same-PCI satellite switch. The assistance information may, for example, include a re-synchronization duration, capabilities to synchronization procedures, and/or a time indication for resuming TX and/or RX. The WTRU may receive configuration information for satellite re-synchronization. The WTRU may perform the same-PCI satellite switch to the second satellite, for example, based on the configuration information indicating the time for the same-PCI satellite switch. In performing the same-PCI satellite switch, the WTRU may start a resynchronization gap, suspend UL TX and/or DL RX, and/or perform re-synchronization procedure(s).

  • Publication number: 20250122738
    Abstract: The invention pertains to an adaptive seating system optimized for efficient storage and transport. Comprising a series of interlocking modular portions, each unit includes a horizontal platform and multiple perpendicular seating posts. Removable seating structures attach to these posts, ensuring flexibility in configuration. Between consecutive seating posts, steps of varying heights create a successive rise in elevation, facilitating a stadium seating effect. To enhance portability, specific modular units incorporate casters, with select ones designed to tilt back 90 degrees for easy maneuverability. This system offers versatile seating arrangements adaptable to different audience sizes and venue constraints. When storage or reconfiguration is required, the modular design ensures ease of assembly, disassembly, and compact storage, catering especially to venues with limited space.

  • Publication number: 20250126054
    Abstract: High availability network services are provided in a communications network comprising a plurality of network devices including a network function implemented as two instances configured as an active instance and a backup instance. The backup instance maintains state data such that the backup instance can actively provide services in response to a failure of the active instance. A pool of data forwarding functions sends, over a tunnel connection, ingress data packets to the network function based on a MAC address of the active instance on an overlay network. When the active instance has failed, the backup instance provides the network function and the pool of data forwarding functions sends over the tunnel connection, subsequent ingress data packets to the network function based on an overlay network MAC address of the backup instance.

  • Publication number: 20250125819
    Abstract: Vector-scaled hierarchical codebook quantization reduces precision (bitwidth) vectors of parameters and may enable energy-efficient acceleration of deep neural networks. A vector (block array) comprises one or more parameters within a single dimension of a multi-dimensional tensor (or kernel). For example, block array comprises 4 sub-vectors (blocks) and each sub-vector comprises 8 parameters. The parameters may be represented in integer, floating-point, or any other suitable format. A vector cluster quantization technique is used to quantize blocks of parameters in real-time. Hardware circuitry within a datapath identifies an optimal codebook of a plurality of codebooks for quantizing each block of parameters and the block is encoded using the identified codebook. During processing, the identified codebook is used to obtain the quantized parameter and perform computations at the reduced precision.
