  • Patent number: 10972773
    Abstract: System and methods for modifying streaming data based on radio frequency information is provided. As radio transceivers transition move to a shared resource or cloud model and the existing radio transceivers are split into a baseband unit and a remote radio head, radio frequency (RF) information including power levels, encoding, data rates, and bandwidth can be provided to video optimization server. The RF information can be provided more frequently to allow real-time modifications to streaming video data. Existing protocols are reactionary in nature and perceive changing channel conditions indirectly. By providing RF information from the baseband unit on a low latency channel, modifications to the video stream can be made before an impact would be noticed at the protocol level. Also, policy information can be used to influence the changes made to streaming data in addition to the RF information.

  • Patent number: 4379520
    Abstract: In order to permit in a simple manner the use of a digital processing unit in a regulating system for an air conditioning or heating plant, each temperature sensor of a temperature-measuring device is connected to a capacitor so as to charge it with a current proportional to the measured temperature. The capacitor is connected to one input of a comparator, and a reference voltage is applied to the other input. The output of the comparator is applied to an input of a digital processing unit which, at the start of the temperature measurement, will discharge the capacitor over a predetermined period and will then, at uniform time intervals, check the output signal supplied by the comparator for change. The number of samplings from the end of capacitor discharge until the time a change in the comparator output occurs is available as a digital value corresponding to the measured temperature.
