Abstract: An apparatus may include a processor that may be caused to access handholding information indicating a hand configuration in which the apparatus is being held and compare the handholding information with previously-stored handholding authentication data of an authentic user. The previously-stored handholding authentication data may represent an authentic configuration in which the apparatus is held by the authentic user. The processor may be caused to determine that the apparatus is being held by the authentic user based on the comparison and cause an authenticated action to occur based on the determination.

Abstract: This document describes debugging multiple instances of code by detecting a variance in thread patterns of threads of execution relative to the multiple instances of executing code. A first instance of the code is executed and a first thread pattern is identified indicative of a first plurality of threads of execution of the first instance of the code. A second instance of the code is executed, the second instance of the code beginning executing prior to the first instance of the code completing executing, and a second thread pattern is identified indicative of a second plurality of threads of execution of the second instance of the code. A comparative representation of the first thread pattern and the second thread pattern is generated relative to each other. A variance between the first thread pattern and the second thread pattern relative to the comparative representation is identified, the variance typically being indicative of a bug in the code.

Abstract: A directed graph for an application under test (AUT) hosted at a hosting computing device is generated based on test flows. Each test flow traverses GUI objects of the AUT via GUI events. Each GUI event is associated with a transition from a first GUI object of the AUT to a second GUI object of the AUT. The GUI event represents interaction with the GUI of the AUT at a client computing device and that resulted in the transition. The directed graph includes nodes that each correspond to a GUI object of the AUT and edges that each correspond to a GUI event.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a method and apparatus for monitoring and correcting a transmit signal. A first sample is taken before the signal is input to a digital to analog converter (DAC) in a transmit chain. A second sample is taken of the transmit signal after the signal has passed through the power amplifier (PA). The first and second transmit samples are then compared and an equalizer interpolation value is determined. This equalizer interpolation value is applied to the transmit signal before transmission to provide a transmit signal with improved quality. The apparatus includes a feedback receive correction unit; a time domain processor in communication with the feedback receive correction unit; a frequency domain processing equalizer in communication with the time domain processor; an equalizer interpolation unit; an absolute value squaring unit in communication with the equalizer interpolation unit; and a processor for computation of a transmit quality parameter.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of internal measurement of voltage standing wave ratio in a transmitter includes providing power to hardware comprising the transmitter, transmitting a signal from the transmitter, sampling the signal in both a transmitted feedforward direction toward an antenna and a reflected direction from the antenna, and computing in a processor associated with the transmitter the voltage standing wave ratio on the basis of the feedforward and reflected sampled signals. A method of calculating a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) in a transmitter includes storing, in a memory associated with a processor associated with the transmitter, a captured feedforward signal from the transmitter to an antenna, storing, in the memory, a captured feedback signal reflected from the antenna, and calculating the VSWR in the processor on the basis of the stored transmitted and reflected signals.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus correlates the feedback signal to a reference transmit signal to correct time misalignments between the transmit chain and the feedback loop, wherein the reference transmit signal is generated in digital domain at an input to a transmit chain and estimates a transmit signal quality value based on the correlation.

Abstract: In a radio frequency (RF) receiver, a receiver RF chain is tuned to a first (e.g., global positioning system (GPS)) channel to permit receipt of a first (e.g., GPS) signal over the first (e.g., GPS) channel on the receiver RF chain during a first time duration. The receiver RF chain is tuned to a second (e.g., cellular page) channel to permit receipt of a second (e.g., cellular page) signal over the second (e.g., cellular page) channel on the receiver RF chain during a second time duration, following the first time duration. The first (e.g., GPS) signal is processed during the first time duration and the second time duration, without any apparent interruption of the first (e.g., GPS) signal during the second time duration. The processing, for example, provides a bridge signal (e.g., an estimated GPS signal on the receiver RF chain) during the second time duration.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods of implementing code space search of received signals are described herein. A code space search is implemented as a searcher that perform a subtask that is dynamically reconfigurable at each boundary of an initial integration time. Each particular subtask sets forth a programmable configuration of coherent integration hypothesis that are performed during the initial integration time. The searcher stores the results of the coherent integration hypothesis in a first portion of memory. A search accelerator operates on the initial integration results. The search accelerator can perform coherent integration of various frequency bins of different timing hypothesis, can generate energy values of the coherent integration results, and can generate a non-coherent energy summation. The energy values of the coherent integrations and non-coherent energy summations are stored in a second portion of memory.

Abstract: Current is provided from a first node coupled to an output of a power supply to a second node coupled to a voltage supply input of an electronic device under test via a transistor having a first current-carrying electrode coupled to the first node and a second current-carrying electrode coupled to the second node. A first voltage is determined based on a voltage difference between the first node and the second node and a second voltage is determined based on a comparison of the first voltage to a voltage of the second node. The transistor is selectively disabled based on the second voltage.
