Publication number: 20200195977Abstract: An exemplary method for intelligent compression defines a threshold value for a temperature reading generated by a temperature sensor. Data blocks received into the compression module are compressed according to either a first mode or a second mode, the selection of which is determined based on a comparison of the active level for the temperature reading to the defined threshold value. The first compression mode may be associated with a lossless compression algorithm while the second compression mode is associated with a lossy compression algorithm. Or, both the first compression mode and the second compression mode may be associated with a lossless compression algorithm, however, for the first compression mode the received data blocks are produced at a default high quality level setting while for the second compression mode the received data blocks are produced at a reduced quality level setting.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2020Publication date: June 18, 2020Inventors: SERAG GADELRAB, CHINCHUAN CHIU, MOINUL KHAN, KYLE ERNEWEIN, TOM LONGO, SIMON BOOTH, MEGHAL VARIA, MILIVOJE ALEKSIC

Patent number: 10484685Abstract: An exemplary method for intelligent compression defines a threshold value for a key performance indicator. Based on the key performance indicator value, data blocks generated by a producer component may be scaled down to reduce power and/or bandwidth consumption when being compressed according to a lossless compression module. The compressed data blocks are then stored in a memory component along with metadata that signals the scaling factor used prior to compression. Consumer components later retrieving the compressed data blocks from the memory component may decompress the data blocks and upscale, if required, based on the scaling factor signaled by the metadata.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2017Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Serag Gadelrab, Chinchuan Chiu, Moinul Khan, Kyle Ernewein, Tom Longo, Simon Booth, Meghal Varia, Milivoje Aleksic, King-Chung Lai

Patent number: 9478173Abstract: The techniques of this disclosure are applicable to backlight display devices. For such devices, the backlight may have different backlight intensity settings in order to promote power conservation. The techniques of this disclosure may apply different adjustments to the display, depending on the backlight intensity setting. In one example, different color correction matrices may be applied for different backlight settings in order to achieve desirable adjustments in the device at the different backlight settings. The adjustments described herein may address chrominance shifts due to different backlight settings as well as cross-talk between color channels. The techniques may also be applicable to organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays that have different luminance settings, and some described techniques may be applicable to displays that have static or fixed luminance output.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2011Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Reza Safaee-Rad, Min Dai, Milivoje Aleksic
