    Publication number: 20230142419
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method includes measuring a first number of control qubits in a quantum algorithm, wherein a quantum circuit representation of the quantum algorithm includes a multiple-controlled-NOT gate. In an embodiment, a method includes measuring a second number of ancilla qubits in a quantum computer. In an embodiment, a method includes comparing the first number and the second number to determine an optimum compilation method for a quantum circuit. In an embodiment, a method includes compiling, in response to the comparison determining the second number is greater than one and less than the difference of the first number and 2, a quantum circuit from the quantum algorithm using a hybrid method.

  • Reconfigurable propulsion mechanisms of a multirotor aerial vehicle
    Patent number: 11643219
    Abstract: This disclosure describes example reconfigurable propulsion mechanisms, example multi-rotor aerial vehicle apparatuses, and methods that may be used to alter the yaw torque polarity produced by one or more propulsion mechanisms in response to a detected loss of thrust produced by another propulsion mechanism of the aerial vehicle. For example, each reconfigurable propulsion mechanism may be configured to move between a normal operating position and a reconfigured operating position. When a reconfigurable propulsion mechanism is in a normal operating position, the yaw torque has a first polarity, such as clockwise. In comparison, when the same reconfigurable propulsion mechanism is in the reconfigured operating position, the yaw torque polarity produced by the propulsion mechanism is reversed and has a second polarity, such as counter-clockwise.

  • Non-invasive ocular drug delivery insert technology
    Patent number: 11642311
    Abstract: Non-invasive Ocular Drug Delivery Insert Technology. The invention concerns an ocular insert which is a new biocompatible polymer-based controlled drug delivery system (CDDS) applicable to a variety of drugs and other compounds for the treatment of different ocular pathologies. This ocular insert allows releasing of at least one drug under suitable concentration levels during suitable periods of time. The device may be inserted in the lower or upper fornix conjunctiva, in a non-invasive way, meaning that the patient will be able to place the device himself, without intervention of medical specialized staff. The insert of the invention will release the drug in such a controlled rate that will allow the drug release up to 300 days by either a “Fickian” or a linear profile according to the intend purpose or pathology.

  • Header repetition in packet-based OFDM systems
    Patent number: 11646927
    Abstract: An OFDM communication system is described that allows different values of D in a single domain where nodes are operating in different portions of frequency bands. For the power-line medium, G.9960 has defined two overlapped baseband bandplans, 50 MHz-PB and 100 MHz-PB. In this exemplary scenario, the level of frequency diversity is different depending on the bandplan, hence providing different header decodibility if D is fixed to 1. If D is fixed to 2, then it increases reliability for the narrowband devices, but may also unnecessarily increase overhead for the wide-band devices. An exemplary aspect is therefore directed to techniques to accommodate different repetitions schemes (D=1, . . . , DMAX and H=1, . . . , HMAX) in a single domain, and still allow devices to communicate with one another where DMAX and HMAX can be larger than 2.
