  • Publication number: 20230283538
    Abstract: The embodiments described herein can dynamically adjust timing of network bandwidth estimations by adjusting a target frequency for sending probing sequences to one or more receivers of content. The receivers receive these probing sequences from a transmitter and respond to the transmitter with network bandwidth estimations. In one embodiment, the probing sequences can use the content itself to create the probing sequences. The embodiments can be used in video conferencing applications to control how a transmitter of content can adjust transmissions based upon the network bandwidth estimations. In one embodiment, a policy can be used at a transmitter to begin a video transmission with a high frequency target for sending probing sequences (with, e.g., smaller length probing sequences) and transition to a lower frequency target (with, e.g., longer length probing sequences) when network bandwidth deteriorates and then return to the higher frequency target when the network bandwidth improves.

  • Publication number: 20230134183
    Abstract: The present invention discloses CLDN18.2-targeting antibodies, bispecific antibodies and use thereof The CLDN18.2-targeting antibody is a single-domain heavy-chain antibody that has high affinity for tumor cells endogenously expressing CLDN18.2 and can induce high endocytic activity. The bispecific antibody can target CLDN18.2 and CD3 and retains the binding effect of an Fc to an FcRn; meanwhile, a mutant Fc is preferred so as to reduce the binding to an FcgR and thus the activation of non-specific T cells caused by the cross-linking of an FcgR. The CD3-terminus activity is optimized so that the release of common cytokines in CRS, such as IL6 and TNF? can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20230112049
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a communication method and apparatus for an open radio access network (O-RAN), an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium, relating to communication. The method comprises: determining, by an O-RAN distributed unit (O-DU), for a periodic or semi-persistent channel or signal, that that a trigger condition for a first control-plane message is satisfied; and transmitting, by the O-DU, a first control-plane message to an O-RAN radio unit (O-RU), the first control-plane message indicating a first endpoint in the O-RU to perform an operation related to first information, the O-RU configured to periodically control receiving uplink air interface data or processing downlink user-plane messages based on the first information. In various embodiments of the disclosure, periodically transmitting control-plane messages is avoided and the message load of the fronthaul interface is thus effectively reduced.

  • Patent number: 11606574
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for coding video data in which frames from a video source are partitioned into a plurality of tiles of common size, and the tiles are coded as a virtual video sequence according to motion-compensated prediction, each tile treated as having respective temporal location of the virtual video sequence. The coding scheme permits relative allocation of coding resources to tiles that are likely to have greater significance in a video coding session, which may lead to certain tiles that have low complexity or low motion content to be skipped during coding of the tiles for select source frames. Moreover, coding of the tiles may be ordered to achieve low coding latencies during a coding session.
