  • Patent number: 11990901
    Abstract: A semiconductor circuit device includes a first clock gating circuit that outputs a first gated clock signal generated from a clock signal and a first enable signal, a non-volatile first flip-flop that operates in response to a clock pulse of the first gated clock signal, an acquisition circuit that acquires data inputted from the first flip-flop according to a second enable signal that enables or disables the acquisition of the data from the first flip-flop, and a power gating circuit that supplies electric power to the first flip-flop and receives the first and second enable signals as power source control signals. The power gating circuit includes a power switch, and supplies the electric power to the first flip-flop by turning ON the power switch when the power source control signals have logical values that enable the clock signal or the acquisition of the data in the acquisition circuit.

  • Publication number: 20240163400
    Abstract: A transcript of a conference (e.g., a video conference, an audio conference, or a telephone call with two or more participants) is processed to extract a conference summary. The transcript includes strings that are associated with respective timestamps and respective speaker identifiers. Speaker segments—sequences of consecutive strings attributed to the same speaker—are identified in the transcript. A speaker segment is selected based on its duration in time and one or more strings are selected from with the selected speaker segment for inclusion in the conference summary. A short video conference summary or a short audio conference summary is then generated using timestamps from the transcript associated with strings (e.g., sentences) that have been selected for inclusion in the conference summary. The short video or audio summary may be presented to users to enable efficient storage and transmission of information from the conference within a unified communications system.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may identify a beam failure for at least one communication beam at the UE. The UE may determine the reasoning for the beam failure and may include the reasoning in a beam failure recovery (BFR) request. The UE may identify a sidelink relay UE to communicate via sidelink channel and transmit the BFR request to the network entity. The network entity may receive the BFR request from the sidelink relay UE and identify beam switching parameters based on the type of interference that caused the beam failure. The network entity may include the beam switching parameters in a BFR response to the UE. The UE may receive the BFR response and switch to another candidate beam to enable communication to the network entity.

  • Publication number: 20240162623
    Abstract: The disclosed apparatus may include an antenna radiating structure that includes an active transparent mesh portion as well as a non-transparent antenna radiator portion. By combining transparent metal mesh and non-transparent metallic film into the antenna radiating structure, the disclosed apparatus results in improved radiation efficiency. Moreover, when overlaid on a transparent lens (such as with a pair of augmented reality glasses), the antenna radiating structure leaves the optical transparency of the lens largely unaffected due to the placement of the non-transparent metallic film. Various other implementations are also disclosed.
