Abstract: The present disclosure provides a mechanism to perform a CSB burst mode between a master device and one or more slave devices. In CSB burst mode, the master device may broadcast more than one packet of data in a CSB interval, and hence, may use the time slots in a CSB interval more efficiently than while operating in traditional CSB mode. CSB burst mode of the present disclosure may be used to improve the latency and duty cycle of data transmissions, such as for example, broadcast audio. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine to broadcast a set of packets during a CSB interval, where the set of packets includes a plurality of packets. In some aspects, the apparatus may broadcast the set of packets during the CSB interval to a set of second nodes.

Abstract: Motion-detection systems are often used to detect presence of humans. Such motion-detection systems are often based on passive infrared (PIR) sensors. Unfortunately, such detection systems are unable to reliably distinguish between humans and other entities such as animals and moving heat sources. To address this issue, it is proposed to detect a presence of real time clock (RTC) devices in addition to detecting the heat sources to better determine whether a detected entity is a human.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device may break down (e.g., filter) a frequency band of an input signal into various subbands, and an encoding stage may then allocate bits across the various subbands. In some examples, the encoding stage may allocate proportionally more bits to higher prioritized (e.g., lower frequency) subbands. Once the subbands have been encoded, the output of each individual encoder (e.g., each encoded subband) may be transmitted in a packet. As such, subbands transmitted as single packets (e.g., subbands transmitted in individual packets) may be shorter in length and may be more efficiently prioritized by a transmitter and a receiver. For example, subbands may be prioritized based on a location where the most data is found in audio, based on the tone of a speaker (e.g., for speech encoding), etc.

Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring eye movement of a viewer may enable monitoring of a viewer's focus to enhance attention based media control. One example includes providing visual stimuli on a screen, monitoring a viewing focus of a viewer to determine if the viewing focus of the viewer is on the visual stimuli and may include stopping the visual stimuli when the viewing focus is determined to be other than on the visual stimuli. The method may also include resuming the visual stimuli when the viewing focus is determined to be on the visual stimuli.

Abstract: The apparatus receives a plurality of broadcasted segmented messages from one or more nodes. Each segmented message of the segmented messages includes redundancy error coding. The apparatus reassembles the segmented messages into a plurality of PDUs. Each PDU of the plurality of PDUs has a sequence number. The apparatus determines that one or more PDUs of the plurality of PDUs failed to decode upon attempting to decode each of the PDUs, or that the one or more PDUs are missing from the plurality of PDUs based on the sequence number. The apparatus constructs at least one PDU of the one or more PDUs based on the redundancy error coding in decoded PDUs other than the at least one PDU. The apparatus reassembles the PDUs into an object based on the sequence number for each PDU.
