  • Publication number: 20250112741
    Abstract: Systems and methods for joint Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback for Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) transmission over multiple TRPs are provided. In some embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device for enabling transmission feedback includes: receiving a first Transport Block (TB) and a second TB; and determining the first TB and the second TB based on a Control Resource Set (CORESET) group identifier of a CORESET over which a corresponding Downlink Control Information (DCI) scheduling the TB is received. In this way, the New Radio (NR) Rel-15 procedure for type 1 HARQ codebook construction might be reused with the same or minimum increase of HARQ feedback overhead with semi-static HARQ-ACK codebook.

  • Publication number: 20250090067
    Abstract: A sensor circuit that is capable of sensing of neural action potentials is disclosed. The circuit can be designed to minimize power dissipation and total silicon area so that it can be incorporated into a massively parallel sensor array and ultimately implanted in the body (e.g., into the brain) in a safe manner. The circuit can also be designed to be tunable such that it can be optimized in silico prior to fabrication and can be optimized through the use of controllable current sources after fabrication.

  • Publication number: 20250045515
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for generating and modifying a workflow comprising a series of webpages based on an online document. A document management system accesses an online document selected by a user and classifies each field of the online document into one of a set of categories. For each category, the system generates a form webpage comprising questions corresponding to each field classified as the category and combines the generated webpages to create a workflow. The system may modify the workflow by generating and adding one or more additional form webpages based on one or more answers provided by an entity completing the webform page. In response to the entity completing the modified generated workflow, the system generates a completed document based on the online document and the answers provided by the entity.

  • Publication number: 20250043363
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for characterizing cancer testis antigen burden (“CTAB”), for predicting cancer survival outcomes using CTAB analysis, and for recommending and/or treating cancer using CTAB analysis. Particularly, aspects are directed to measuring expression of a panel of cancer testis antigen (CTA) gene markers in a tumor sample from a subject, determining a CTAB based on the measured expression of the CTA gene markers, classifying, by comparing to a reference CTAB score from the same cancer or tumor type, the CTAB score as a high-CTAB score or a low-CTAB score, and identifying the subject as responsive to a treatment wherein (i) the high-CTAB score is indicative of responsiveness to the treatment, or (ii) the low-CTAB score is indicative of responsiveness to the treatment.

  • Patent number: 11474543
    Abstract: An assembly for an ATIS that includes a tire inflation valve and a tire deflation valve, and further includes a safety valve that is configured to receive the tire pressure, deflate a tire when tire pressure is too high such as due to braking heat, road friction, ambient temperature, or other reasons. The safety valve prevents deflation of the tire through the deflation valve in the case of low source pressure, such as the pressure source fails or a leak in the source pressure system lines. The assembly is designed to be quickly serviced in the field, where the serviceable parts are very inexpensive. Multiple devices can be installed in parallel with the others, with one device per tire or tire set. The assembly can be a block configured to be attached to a hub cap of a vehicle. It also enables a sensor placement on the hub cap for hub temperature sensing as well as tire pressures sensing and reporting.

  • Publication number: 20050011277
    Abstract: System and method for measuring static load by using a piezoelectric load sensor with a feedback technique to compensate for the signal loss due to charge leakage, and therefore ensures measurement accuracy. The system is integrated with other structure, objects and devices to measure static loads applied to a mechanical shaft, in an on-line, in-process, quasi real-time fashion. The system can be used to measure static load and thus oversee an entire machine system or a manufacturing process.
