Abstract: RF signal is received (1006). The received RF signal includes a first RF signal encoding a first orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a first long-term evolution (LTE) V2X data packet. A channel estimation in the time domain is determined (1012) using the received signal and an as-transmitted time domain version of an L-LTF symbol is determined (1014). The channel estimation in the time domain is applied to the as-transmitted time domain version of the L-LTF symbol to determine an as-transmitted version of the L-LTF symbol that exhibits channel fading (1018). A first portion of the as-transmitted version of the L-LTF symbol that exhibits channel fading is subtracted from a second portion of the received RF signal (1022) to remove inter-symbol interference from the received signal to generate a second received RF signal.

Abstract: The received RF signal includes a first RF signal encoding a first orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a first long-term evolution (LTE) V2X data packet. A legacy long training field (L-LTF) symbol is determined using the received RF signal (608), a channel estimation is calculated (612) using the L-LTF symbol, and legacy signal (L-SIG) field control bits are determined (614) from the received RF signal, the L-SIG field control bits including a plurality of IQ samples. A plurality of candidate L-SIG decodings are generated (618) using the IQ samples and the channel estimation, wherein each candidate L-SIG decoding of the plurality of L-SIG decodings is generated by setting a different number of IQ samples in the L-SIG field control bits to zero values (616), and a first L-SIG decoding of the plurality of candidate L-SIG decodings is identified (624). A data field from the received RF signal is decoded using the first L-SIG decoding (626).

Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for learned condition text-to-speech synthesis. In some examples, first data representing a selection of a type of prosodic expressivity may be received. In some further examples, a selection of content comprising text data may be received. First audio data may be determined that includes an audio representation of the text data. The first audio data may be generated based at least in part on sampling from a first latent distribution generated using a conditional primary variational autoencoder (VAE). The sampling from the first latent distribution may be conditioned on a first learned distribution associated with the type of prosodic expressivity. In various examples, the first audio data may be sent to a first computing device.

Abstract: In connection with an RF communication system, exemplary aspects involve a method for use in a communication system in which a first system (e.g., 802.11) that is asynchronously based and which is susceptible to interference from a second system (e.g., synchronous-based LTE-CV2X). Such interference is due to the frequency spectrum used by the first and second systems overlapping. To mitigate interference issues, example methods spreads out the times for messages in the first system, based on information concerning occupancy of the channel, and transmitting them relative to the end of a cycled transmission allocated for use by the second system.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to use with communications that may involve repetitive communications. As may be implemented in accordance with one or more embodiments, a subset of symbols in a current data message (130/131) are used with a corresponding subset of symbols in a previous data message (120/121), to ascertain whether the current data message is a repetition of the previous data message. This may involve, for instance, generating a resemblance metric to represent semblance between a subset the data symbols of the current data message and a subset the data symbols of the previous data message (102). The resemblance metric can be used in determining whether the current data message is a repetition of the previous data message. This approach may be useful, for example, in ascertaining whether the current message is a repetition without necessarily decoding the message.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to ascertaining whether data messages are repetitions of a previous data message. As may be implemented in accordance with one or more embodiments characterized herein, data packets (130/131) are received (102) and which use a first time delay relative to transmission of a previous data packet (120/121) by a different transmitter. Repetitions (110A/111A) of data packets are also received (102), and which use a second time delay relative to transmission of a previous data packet (110/111) by the same transmitter. The second time delay is less than the first time delay. The received packet is identified (102) as being a repetition of an immediately-previous data packet based on a time delay between the data packet and the immediately-previous data packet, relative to the first and second time delays.

Abstract: A battery management system for tracking a state of charge of a battery including multiple cells including a coulomb counter (CC) estimator and an artificial intelligence (AI) estimator. The CC estimator determines a charge difference over time for tracking changes of a state of charge of each cell and updates a corresponding state of charge value. The AI estimator converts a set of sample values of a cell into an estimated state of charge for calibrating the cell. A controller may periodically invoke the AI estimator to calibrate the state of charge of each cell and to update a corresponding state of charge value. Processing by the AI estimator may be minimized by being used only to calibrate each cell before combined error of the CC estimator reaches a predetermined threshold. AI based calibration may use Long Short-Term Memories and may further incorporate voltage mean and voltage variance over time.
