  • Patent number: 12089264
    Abstract: In order to provide a transmission device and transmission method with which a response signal for random access preamble transmitted from a preamble transmission device is efficiently transmitted, setting unit in base station sets a first resource candidate group, which enables terminal capable of receiving a latch response transmitted by demodulation reference signal (DMRS) transmission to be selected, and a second resource candidate group, which enables terminal incapable of receiving a latch response transmitted by DMRS transmission but capable of receiving a latch response transmitted by cell-specific reference signal (CRS) transmission to be selected. Control unit selects DMRS transmission as the latch response transmission method when a resource in which latch preamble has been received is included in the first candidate group, but selects CRS transmission as the latch response transmission method when the resource is included in the second resource candidate group.

  • Patent number: 11893983
    Abstract: An approach for improving speech recognition is provided. A processor receives a new word to add to a prefix tree. A processor determines a bonus score for a first transition from a first node to a second node in a prefix tree on condition that the first transition is included in a path of at least one transition representing the new word. A processor determines a hypothesis score for a hypothesis that corresponds to a speech sequence based on the prefix tree, where the hypothesis score adds the bonus score to an initial hypothesis score to determine the hypothesis score. In response to a determination that the hypothesis score exceeds a threshold value, a processor generates an output text sequence for the speech sequence based on the hypothesis.
