Abstract: During semiconductor wafer inspection, an image of a semiconductor wafer is divided into segments. A standard deviation for each of the segments is determined using a difference image.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for adjusting an encoding timing or a decoding timing in a manner that minimizes disruption of ongoing uplink or downlink traffic. Some aspects more specifically relate to decoupling adjustment of the encoding timing and adjustment the decoding timing to enable independent adjustment of the encoding timing or the decoding timing. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may perform adjustment of the encoding timing, relative to an active time indicated by a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration, at a time at which uplink traffic is absent. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may perform adjustment of the decoding timing, relative to an active time indicated by a DRX configuration, at a time at which downlink traffic is absent. Accordingly, upon receiving a DRX configuration, the UE may wait until a period in which uplink traffic or downlink traffic is absent to perform a timing adjustment.
