  • Patent number: 12657481
    Abstract: An apparatus for orchestrating an artificial intelligence agent is disclosed, An apparatus for orchestrating an artificial intelligence agent may include a processor. An apparatus may include a memory communicatively coupled to a processor, the memory containing instructions configuring the processor to perform various functions. A processor may be configured to generate a processing template comprising a dataflow. A processor may be configured to modify a processing template to include a trigger for execution of an artificial intelligence agent at a point within a dataflow. A processor may be configured to insert at least one agent executable at a trigger of a processing template. A processor may be configured to execute a dataflow of a processing template, wherein at a trigger within the dataflow an artificial intelligence agent performs an agent executable.

  • Publication number: 20060148480
    Abstract: A method and apparatus facilitate soft handover in a CDMA RAN (100) based on a requested set of soft handover parameters from a plurality of sets of soft handover parameters associated with a corresponding plurality of radio configurations. A mobile station (140) can request a set of soft handover parameters associated with a radio configuration. Candidate base stations (BTS 1-BTS N) can be added to an active list based on the soft handover parameters.

  • Patent number: 6999921
    Abstract: To address the need for reducing audio overhang in wireless communication systems (e.g., 100), the present invention provides for the deletion of silent frames before they are converted to audio by the listening devices. The present invention only provides for the deletion of a portion of the silent frames that make up a period of silence or low voice activity in the speaker's audio. Voice frames that make up periods of silence less than a given length of time are not deleted.

  • Patent number: 5596269
    Abstract: The apparatus for testing electrical switch matrices includes a potential selector (30) for receiving and applying a voltage (28) to a predetermined input (101-106) of each of the plurality of electrical switches (12), a controller (15) for receiving and applying signals to the plurality of electrical switches (12), and a combiner (36) responsive to an output (22) of each of the plurality of electrical switches (12). The controller (15) selects electrical paths (16) associated with each of the switches (12) which are in communication with the predetermined inputs (101-106) of each of the switches. The output (38) of the combiner (36) indicates whether at least one of the selected electrical paths (16) failed.
