Patent number: 10506990Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described in this disclosure can be implemented in a fall detection device and method. One or more motion sensors can access a user's acceleration data. The acceleration data can be segmented using a segmentation algorithm to identify a potential fall event. The segmentation algorithm can determine a cumulative sum of the acceleration data, where the cumulative sum is based on acceleration values being greater than or less than an acceleration threshold value, and a potential fall event can be identified where the cumulative sum is greater than a cumulative sum threshold value. Statistical features can be extracted from the segmented acceleration data and aggregated, and a determination can be made as to whether the potential fall event is a fall event based at least in part on the statistical features.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2016Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Jin Won Lee, Xinzhou Wu, Rashid Ahmed Akbar Attar, Feng Han

Patent number: 10410714Abstract: Multi-level cell (MLC) static random access memory (SRAM) (MLC SRAM) cells configured to perform multiplication operations are disclosed. In one aspect, an MLC SRAM cell includes SRAM bit cells, wherein data values stored in SRAM bit cells correspond to a multiple-bit value stored in the MLC SRAM cell that serves as first operand in multiplication operation. Voltage applied to read bit line is applied to each SRAM bit cell, wherein the voltage is an analog representation of a multiple-bit value that serves as a second operand in the multiplication operation. For each SRAM bit cell, if a particular binary data value is stored, a current correlating to the voltage of the read bit line is added to a current sum line. A magnitude of current on the current sum line is an analog representation of a multiple-bit product of the first operand multiplied by the second operand.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Xia Li, Seung Hyuk Kang, Venkat Rangan, Rashid Ahmed Akbar Attar, Nicholas Ka Ming Stevens-Yu

Patent number: 10271274Abstract: Access terminals are adapted to facilitate extended time periods for maintaining PPP sessions. According to one example, an access terminal can communicate with a network entity to establish a PPP session maintained by an extended time period. The extended time frame can be different (e.g., greater or less) than a default time period for maintaining the PPP session. For instance, the access terminal may establish a PPP session including a PPP connection. The access terminal may also send a persistence indicator to the network entity to cause setting the extended time period for maintaining the PPP session. The network entity may receive the persistence indicator and accordingly employ a differing time period (e.g., an extended time period) for maintaining the PPP session. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2013Date of Patent: April 23, 2019Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Ravindra Manohar Patwardhan, Rashid Ahmed Akbar Attar

Patent number: 10045374Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing access to a wireless medium by one or more stations (STAs) in a wireless network. A device determines a first transmit opportunity for a first STA of the one or more STAs in the wireless network. The device enables the first STA to access the wireless medium for a duration of the first transmit opportunity by broadcasting a first grant message to the one or more STAs in the wireless network. The first grant message indicates allocation of the first transmit opportunity to the first STA.
