  • Patent number: 11810152
    Abstract: Automatic item placement recommendation is described. An item placement configuration system receives an item for which a recommended placement is to be generated and identifies an entity associated with the item. The item placement configuration system then identifies a multi-domain taxonomy that describes relationships between different entities based on items associated with the different entities published among different domains. A representation of the entity associated with the item to be placed is then identified within the multi-domain taxonomy, along with a representation of at least one similar entity. Upon identifying a similar entity, historic item placement metrics for the similar entity are leveraged to generate a placement recommendation for the received item. In some implementations, the placement recommendation is output with a visual indication of a similar entity and associated performance metrics that were considered in generating the recommended placement.

  • Publication number: 20230344591
    Abstract: Some embodiments include an apparatus, method, and computer program product for simultaneous multiple secondary cell (SCell) fast activation in a wireless communications system. Some embodiments include a user equipment (UE) that can simultaneously activate multiple SCells. In some embodiments, after receiving an activation command, the UE can receive two or more temporary reference signals (T-RSs) which are user equipment (UE) specific reference signals. The UE can use the T-RSs for fine time/frequency (T/F) tracking and Automatic Gain Control (AGC) adjustment of corresponding SCells resulting in reduced SCell activation latency compared to utilizing a Synchronization Signal (SS)/Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) Block Measurement Timing Configuration (SMTC).
