Publication number: 20160381710Abstract: In a multi-subscription wireless communication device with a shared radio frequency (RF) resource, when there is an active data communication associated with the first SIM, a tune-away may be performed to support a subscription on a second SIM. After tuning to the second network to receive data during an assigned time slot in a frame capable of carrying a common control channel the wireless communication device may determine whether a message granting or denying the requested channel access can be recovered or excluded, and skip receiving remaining frames for the message and stop tune-aways when a message granting the requested channel access can be excluded. In some embodiments determining whether the message can be excluded may include determining whether a signal-to-noise ratio for the received data burst is greater than 10 dB, and if so, determining whether the decoded data can be identified as part of a paging message.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2015Publication date: December 29, 2016Inventors: Pankaj Bansal, Siddhant Mehrotra, Ravi Kanth Kotreka

Patent number: 6604166Abstract: A memory architecture is provided to enable parallel access along any dimension of an n-dimensional data array. To enable parallel access of s data elements along any dimension, the data elements of n-dimensional data array are mapped to s parallel memory banks in such a way that consecutive s data elements along any dimension are mapped to different memory banks. This mapping is defined by two functions, which define the memory bank number and location within a memory bank for each data element in n-dimensional data array. The necessary and sufficient conditions, which the mapping functions should satisfy in order to enable parallel data access, are described. These generic function pairs are described for all combinations of (n, s). Two particular instances of the mapping, namely circular permutation (rotation) along 0th dimension and dyadic permutation along 0th dimension have been discussed in detail.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1999Date of Patent: August 5, 2003Assignee: Silicon Automation Systems LimitedInventors: Soumya Jana, Pankaj Bansal, Balvinder Singh
