  • Publication number: 20250093487
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing sensing capability in a wireless communication system, wherein a part of the communication spectrum is configured for a period of time to enable performing sensing by establishing a distributed sensing system between a base station (100) or terminal device, as transmitter device, and a terminal device (120) or base station, as receiver device, in such a way that the lack of analogue signal exchange and the additional path length caused by the transmitter-receiver distance (and, in embodiments, the receiver-target distance) are corrected for, while parameters that need to be communicated are configured for the application required.

  • Publication number: 20250055762
    Abstract: The invention proposes systems and methods for testing on-device machine learning models such as network models of a device based on an access to normal input and output channels, wherein a structure of a model is designed through training such that the model produces distinctive outputs to a given set of test inputs only so long as its internal structure remains in a desired state. Models may be rendered susceptible to such testing via model pre-training with training inputs designed to train the model into an appropriate structure and/or to cause the model to produce a distinctive output if later presented with a certain set of test inputs. If the structure of the model remains within allowable limits, the device will produce a predictable output when tested. If not, the device may be enforced to return to a pre-trained model.

  • Patent number: 12077958
    Abstract: A concrete foundation with reinforcements is formed on a substrate. A first inner wythe horizontal layer and a first outer wythe horizontal layer are printed using a construction material mixture from a 3D printer. The first inner wythe horizontal layer and the first outer wythe horizontal layer are separated by an interstitial space. Additional inner wythe horizontal layers are printed upward on top of the first inner wythe horizontal layer to form a composite inner wythe. Additional outer wythe horizontal layers are printed upward on top of the first outer wythe horizontal layer to form a composite outer wythe. At least one wall tie is placed between the composite inner wythe and the composite outer wythe. A sill cap is installed on top of the composite inner wythe and the composite outer wythe. An anchor mechanism is installed into the sill cap.

  • Patent number: 11980713
    Abstract: Several methods of supporting respiratory function of a patient before, during and/or after a medical procedure are disclosed. In certain arrangements, supporting respiratory function while a patient is under general anaesthesia can include providing a high gas flow a high gas flow that is greater than 15 L/min while the patient is under general anaesthesia. In certain arrangements, a method of providing ventilation while a patient is under general anaesthesia involves providing only a gas flow delivered through a nasal interface that is greater than 15 L/min while the patient is under general anaesthesia.

  • Publication number: 20230172353
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a workstation and a technique to automatically configure the workstation. The workstation can be used to perform various tasks including but not limited to medication delivery, collection of medical records, patient care, manufacturing operations, and others. The workstation can be configured by the user depending on the tasks to be performed using the workstation. Various sensors (e.g., hall effect sensors, optical sensors, or the like) can be coupled to the workstation, and sensor operators (e.g., magnets, color coded strips, or the like) can be coupled to the modules. By aligning sensor operators with sensors when modules are coupled to the workstation, a configuration (e.g., size, shape, location, or the like) of modules can be automatically detected by the workstation controller. The controller of the workstation can then adapt to perform certain tasks (e.g., lock/unlock drawers, or the like) depending on the detected configuration of modules.
