Patent number: 11582275Abstract: An online meeting system begins the process of connecting a user to an online meeting when the user enters a prejoin dialog for choosing meeting settings, rather than waiting until the user chooses to actually join the meeting after entering settings. Starting the meeting connection process at this time allows a shorter perceived connection time to the meeting and thus reduces user frustration with the meeting system.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2022Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Nagaswapna Bhamidipati, Xin He, Milica Jovanovic, Artur Pawel Kania, Namendra Kumar, Rui Liang, Yue Li, Joel Harodi Marquez Catano, Abhilash Chandrasekharan Nair, Gaurav Pancholi, Jindrich Parus, Martin Petrla, Denis Postu, Rama Krishan Prasad Satya Prakash, Kensaku Sueda, Balvinder Kaur Thind, Hao Xu

Publication number: 20220327360Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory media for performing radio frequency sensing detection operations. For instance, radio frequency data can be received that is associated with at least one wireless device. The radio frequency data can be based on radio frequency signals reflected from a first object and received by the at least one wireless device. Training label data can also be obtained (e.g., from a labeling device, from the at least one wireless device, etc.). The training label data can be based at least in part on the first object and input data (e.g., received by the labeling device, the at least one wireless device, etc.). A sensing model can be generated based on the radio frequency data and the training label data.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2021Publication date: October 13, 2022Inventors: Simone MERLIN, Jamie Menjay LIN, Brian Michael BUESKER, Rui LIANG, Daniel Hendricus Franciscus DIJKMAN, Farhad GHAZVINIAN ZANJANI, Ilia KARMANOV, Vamsi VEGUNTA, Harshit JOSHI, Bibhu MOHANTY, Raamkumar BALAMURTHI

Patent number: 11428646Abstract: Optical fabrication monitor structures can be included in a design fabricated on a wafer from a mask or fabrication reticle. A first set of components can be formed in an initial fabrication cycle, where the first set includes functional components and monitor structures. A second set of components can be formed by subsequent fabrication processes that can potentially cause errors or damage to the first set of components. The monitor structures can be implemented during fabrication (e.g., in a cleanroom) to detect fabrication errors without pulling or scrapping the wafer.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: OpenLight Photonics, Inc.Inventors: Erik Johan Norberg, Rui Liang, Benjamin M.

Patent number: 11113455Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for rendering web pages by a wireless device in order to reduce an amount of data transmitted over-the-air to the wireless device. In one embodiment, a method is performed by a server, comprising receiving a markup language document from a web server via a network interface, the markup language document corresponding to a web page. Next, the markup language document is parsed into a number of blocks by a processor, each of the blocks comprising code representing original content of the web page. Then, the processor creates one or more replacement blocks, each of the replacement blocks corresponding to a respective one of the blocks, each of the replacement blocks comprising code representing substituted content of the web page. Some of the blocks and at least one of the replacement blocks are then sent to a wireless device for rendering.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2013Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Aravind Seshadri, Anand Muthurajan, Jyh-Han Lin, Ke-Cheng Huang, Patrick Plaisted, Rui Liang

Patent number: 10578675Abstract: The invention provides a method for estimating a battery capacity of an electronic device. When a current or an average current of the battery is zero, a reference capacity is inquired from a look-up table based on a voltage of the battery. When a previously remaining capacity is greater than a reference capacity, a deduction process of a self-consumable capacity is performed one or more times for a previously recorded remaining capacity to obtain a new recorded remaining capacity smaller than the reference capacity. When the current of the battery is less than zero, a deduction process of a count capacity of discharging is performed one or more times for the previously recorded remaining capacity until a power of the battery is exhausted to obtain a first offset capacity. The first offset capacity is deducted from a previously recorded full charge capacity to estimate a new full charge capacity.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: STL TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventor: Fang-Rui Liang
