Patent number: 11956075Abstract: A control unit of a multipath data transportation system that optimizes the load of the multiple communication paths of this system when the system transmits a data segment over these paths in parallel with forward error correction. The control unit determines an optimized number of packets to send over each path based on a prediction of quality for each path. The transmitted packets include systematic packets and coded packets.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: DOLBY LABORATORIES LICENSING CORPORATIONInventors: Mingchao Yu, Mark Craig Reed

Publication number: 20240102079Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosure relates generally to compositions, comprising a single reaction mixture containing a plurality of different populations of discrete supports, and a plurality of different populations of target nucleic acids. The single reaction mixture can contain a first population of beads; a second population of beads; a first population of target nucleic acids, where at least two different target nucleic acids in the first population of target nucleic acids can bind to a bead in the first population of beads; and a second population of target nucleic acids, where at least two different target nucleic acids in the second population of target nucleic acids can bind to a bead in the second population of beads. The single reaction mixture can be employed to monoclonally amplify the first target nucleic acids on the first beads, and monoclonally amplify the second target nucleic acids on the second beads.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: David JOUN, Chieh-Yuan LI, Brian REED, Craig OBERGFELL, Devin DRESSMAN, Abraham ROSENBAUM, Scott BENSON, Andi BROKA, Srinka GHOSH

Patent number: 11751495Abstract: A tillage implement, a tillage machine, and a method of tilling soil is provided. The tillage implement includes a mounting bracket that couples to a rolling frame, a shank pivotably coupled to the mounting bracket via a hinge assembly, a soil working tool operatively coupled to a distal end of the shank, and a preload assembly for moving the shank to a loaded position that is rotationally offset from an unloaded position. The tillage machine includes a rolling frame that is pulled by a tow vehicle when tilling a field and multiple ones of the tillage implements operatively coupled to the rolling frame that contact and till the field. And the method includes attaching the tillage implement to a rolling frame, preloading the hinge assembly by moving the shank to a loaded position that is rotationally offset from the unloaded position, and contacting the soil with the soil working tool.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2020Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Great Plains Manufacturing, Inc.Inventors: Andrew B.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO GENERATE COPIES OF DATA FOR TRANSMISSION OVER MULTIPLE COMMUNICATION CHANNELS
Publication number: 20230146420Abstract: Systems and methods to transmit data over multiple communication channels in parallel with forward error correction. Original packets are evenly distributed to the channels as the initial systematically channel-encoded packets. Subsequent channel-encoded packets are configured to be linearly independent of their base sets of channel-encoded packets, where a base set for a subsequent channel-encoded packet includes those scheduled to be transmitted before the subsequent packet in the same channel as the subsequent packet, and optionally one or more initial packets from other channels. The compositions of the sequences of the encoded packets can be predetermined without the content of the packets; and the channel-encoded packets can be generated from the original packets on-the-fly by the transmitters of the channels during transmission. When a sufficient number of packets have been received via the channels, a recipient may terminate their transmissions.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Applicant: Dolby Laboratories Licensing CorporationInventors: Mingchao Yu, Mark Craig Reed -
