  • Publication number: 20250149976
    Abstract: In an embodiment, during an overload or short circuit condition, a current limit circuit of an inverter is utilized in a pulse-by-pulse manner, which in turn causes the AC output of the inverter to operate in a hiccup mode (e.g., pulse-by-pulse based on and off dependent upon the output current) and automatically recover once the operating parameters (e.g., output current) are within the proper ranges. The pulse-by-pulse current limit circuit is configured to protect the switching circuits of the inverter from shorting or device failure during any peak operating voltage conditions by ensuring on/off timing accuracy of the inverter.

  • Publication number: 20250150213
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive configuration information indicating a sidelink resource pool, a time gap, and a periodicity of feedback occasions. The UE may generate feedback bits associated with multiple received sidelink messages based on the configuration information. The UE may transmit the feedback bits in a single, multi-bit feedback message according to one or more rules. In some examples, the UE may drop one or more sets of feedback bits (e.g., in the case of a collision of too many feedback messages in a single slot) based on a weighted average priority level of one or more valid feedback bits in each of multiple sets of feedback bits.

  • Publication number: 20250150320
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may perform, on a set of information bits, a distribution matching procedure to obtain a distributed amplitude symbol sequence. In some cases, the wireless device may perform the distribution matching procedure using approximations of quantities of distributed amplitude symbol sequences that each have a same length and a same transmission energy. The wireless device may then encode the distributed amplitude symbol sequence and transmit the encoded distributed amplitude sequence. A device that receives the encoded distributed amplitude sequence may perform a distribution dematching procedure on the distributed amplitude sequence based on approximating quantities of distributed amplitude symbol sequences.
