  • Patent number: 11843364
    Abstract: An acoustic resonator includes a piezoelectric stack including a piezoelectric layer having a top surface and a bottom surface, a top electrode layer disposed above the top surface, and a bottom electrode layer disposed below the bottom surface. A number of acoustic wave reflectors are disposed on a side of the bottom electrode layer opposite the piezoelectric layer. Each acoustic wave reflector includes a high acoustic impedance layer and may include a low acoustic impedance layer. The acoustic resonator may include a tether that extends laterally to a stacking direction of the layers of the piezoelectric stack. A supporting structure may be coupled to the tether opposite the acoustic resonator for anchoring the acoustic resonator. A mirror, one or more phononic crystals, or both may be positioned on proximate the tether opposite the acoustic resonator to avoid resonant waves from exiting the acoustic resonator in use.

  • Publication number: 20230353700
    Abstract: Disclosed is a processing method for board-writing display and a related apparatus. The processing method includes: outputting a composited image frame of a current frame according to the current frame and a complete board-writing image most recently outputted by an extraction module transmitted by a first thread; transmitting, in a case that the extraction module is in an idle state, a previous frame and the current frame to the extraction module by a second thread, to output a complete board-writing image again; determining, in a case that the current frame is not a last frame, a next frame of the current frame as a next current frame by the first thread, and returning to perform above steps. Thus, technical problem of poor real-time video processing performance is solved, effectively avoiding video stuttering in an application which performs video processing while playing a video.

  • Patent number: 11228323
    Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for error correction of distributed data in distributed systems using Reed-Solomon codes. In one embodiment, processes are provided for error correction that include receiving a first correction code for data fragments stored in storage nodes, constructing a second correction code responsive to an unavailable storage node of the storage nodes, performing erasure repair of the unavailable storage node, and outputting a corrected data fragment. The first correction code is a Reed-Solomon code represented as a polynomial and the second correction code is represented as a second polynomial with an increased subpacketization size. Processes are configured to account for repair bandwidth and sub-packetization size. Code constructions and repair schemes accommodate different sizes of evaluation points and provide a flexible tradeoff between the subpacketization size repair bandwidth of codes.

  • Patent number: 10761263
    Abstract: A densely-spaced wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) transceiver utilizes a comb laser source to provide a multi-channel system capable of supporting at least twenty separate channels. The optical transmitter portion of the transceiver utilizes a double-pass (e.g., reflective) modulator configuration. The double-pass arrangement allows for a single grating (or other suitable dispersive element) to be used as a demultiplexer in combination with the comb laser source to separate the input optical beams into individual wavelength components, as well as a multiplexer for combining the plurality of separate modulated optical signals into a single, multi-channel DWDM optical output signal. The optical receiver portion of the transceiver includes a grating element to direct the multi-channel received optical signal into separate, wavelength-based channels, with the signal propagating along each channel directed into a separate photodiode.
