Publication number: 20240090026Abstract: According to various embodiments, a wireless communication device divides a plurality of transmission beams into one or more groups of transmission beams including at least a first group of transmission beams. The wireless communication device determines a first sensing beam requirement for the first group of transmission beams. The wireless communication device determines a first sensing beam and a first scale factor so that the first sensing beam satisfies the first sensing beam requirement scaled by the first scale factor. The first sensing beam is selected from a set of candidate sensing beams. The wireless communication device performs a first Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) using the first sensing beam and a first energy detection threshold (EDT), the first EDT determined in accordance with the first scale factor.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Narayan Prasad, Weimin Xiao, George Calcev, Qian Cheng

Publication number: 20210220739Abstract: Some embodiments herein can include methods and systems for predicting next poses of a character within a virtual gaming environment. The pose prediction system can identify a current pose of a character, generate a gaussian distribution representing a sample of likely poses based on the current pose, and apply the gaussian distribution to the decoder. The decoder can be trained to generate a predicted pose based on a gaussian distribution of likely poses. The system can then render the predicted next pose of the character within the three-dimensional virtual gaming environment. Advantageously, the pose prediction system can apply a decoder that does not include or use input motion capture data that was used to train the decoder.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 21, 2021Publication date: July 22, 2021Inventors: Fabio Zinno, George Cheng, Hung Yu Ling, Michiel van de Panne

Patent number: 8436723Abstract: A vehicle monitoring system is provided that is particularly useful for gathering data relating to noise, vibration and harshness (NVH). The system may include noise and vibrations sensors that sense the noise or vibration levels at various vehicle locations. The sensors generate an output signal that is analyzed by a control unit. The control unit compares the output signal with a predetermined value and if the predetermined value is exceeded, the control unit stores the information. The control unit may also receive information from the engine control unit and store that information also. Information from the sensors may also be stored at predetermined intervals. The information may be downloaded to an output device for storing the data and building a database.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2007Date of Patent: May 7, 2013Inventors: Saeed J Siavoshani, George Cheng
