  • Patent number: 12009894
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a network entity may receive a sounding reference signal (SRS) at a multi-panel system of the network entity, where the multi-panel system includes one or more sounded panels and one or more non-sounded panels. The network entity may estimate a channel to obtain channel state information (CSI) for the one or more sounded panels based at least in part on the SRS. The network entity may estimate CSI for the one or more non-sounded panels based at least in part on the CSI for the one or more sounded panels. The network entity may transmit or receive a communication based at least in part on the CSI for the one or more sounded panels and the CSI for the one or more non-sounded panels. Numerous other aspects are described.

  • Publication number: 20240173891
    Abstract: A method of plugging channels of a honeycomb body and a honeycomb body including plugged channels. The method includes applying a shear force to a plugging mixture including a plurality of inorganic particles, clay, and a liquid vehicle to alter the viscosity of the plugging mixture from a first viscosity prior to the vibrating to a second viscosity which is less than the first viscosity. A honeycomb body is placed into contact with the plugging mixture such that a portion of the plugging mixture having the second viscosity flows into the plurality of channels. Application of the shear force is stopped or reduced to increase the viscosity of the portion of the plugging mixture in the plurality of channels to greater than the first viscosity.

  • Patent number: 11927603
    Abstract: Probes that define retroreflectors, probe systems that include the probes, and methods of utilizing the probes. The probes include the retroreflector, which is defined by a retroreflector body. The retroreflector body includes a first side, an opposed second side, a tapered region that extends from the first side, and a light-receiving region that is defined on the second side. The probes also include a probe tip, which is configured to provide a test signal to a device under test (DUT) and/or to receive a resultant signal from the DUT. The retroreflector is configured to receive light, via the light-receiving region, at a light angle of incidence. The retroreflector also is configured to emit at least an emitted fraction of the light, from the retroreflector body and via the light-receiving region, at a light angle of emission that is at least substantially equal to the light angle of incidence.

  • Publication number: 20230125833
    Abstract: A method of performing synchronous replication from a primary storage system apparatus (PSSA) to a secondary storage system apparatus (SSSA) is provided. The method includes (a) in response to write requests received by the PSSA, (i) calculating metadata changes by the PSSA for accommodating the write requests, (ii) generating, by the PSSA, metadata journal log entries that describe the metadata changes, and (iii) mirroring the metadata journal log entries from the PSSA to the SSSA; (b) regenerating the metadata changes by the SSSA based on the metadata journal log entries mirrored from the PSSA to the SSSA; and (c) writing the regenerated metadata changes to persistent storage of the SSSA. A method performed by the SSSA is also provided. An apparatus, system, and computer program product for performing similar methods are also provided.

  • Patent number: 11580673
    Abstract: The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for mask embedding for realistic high-resolution image synthesis. According to one method for mask embedding for realistic high-resolution image synthesis includes receiving, as input, a mask embedding vector and a latent features vector, wherein the mask embedding vector acts as a semantic constraint; generating, using a trained image synthesis algorithm and the input, a realistic image, wherein the realistic image is constrained by the mask embedding vector; and outputting, by the trained image synthesis algorithm, the realistic image to a display or a storage device.

  • Patent number: 5232090
    Abstract: A fan having a rectangular frame including a bottom wall, two side walls, and a top wall, and a motor-driven impeller supported within the frame for causing air to move through the frame in an axial direction. The frame has at least one, and preferably two, stabilizing feet moveable between an extended position, in which each foot projects axially beyond the contour of the fan frame, and a retracted position, in which the foot does not project axially beyond the contour of the fan frame. Resilient elements, such as springs, constantly urge the stabilizing feet toward their extended positions. The stabilizing feet may be pivotally mounted on the fan frame, and stops are provided against which each foot abuts when the foot is in its extended position.
