Abstract: A nonlinear resonator is presented that enhances the bandwidth while providing high resonance amplitude. The nonlinear resonance circuit is comprised of an inductor electrically coupled to a capacitor, where either the inductor or capacitor is nonlinear. Response of the nonlinear resonance circuit to an excitation signal is described by a family of second-order differential equations with cubic-order nonlinearity, known as Duffing equations. In one aspect, the nonlinear resonator is implemented by a nonlinear dielectric resonator.

Abstract: In various embodiments described herein, a visualization system receives message requests from client devices, wherein the message requests comprise at least location data that identifies a location of a client device, and media content, wherein the media content includes at least one of image data, audio data, and video data. In response to receiving the message requests that comprise the media content, the visualization system analyzes and parses the media content to detect one or more tags embedded within the media content. In response to detecting the tag, the visualization system identifies a campaign or account referenced by or associated with the tag. Based on the identification of the campaign based on the tag within the media content, the visualization system determines a distribution of the campaign based on the location data from the message request.

Abstract: Architectures and techniques are presented that can provide point-to-point analysis to generate an improved signal strength prediction (SSP) based on, e.g., earth surface image data processing and analysis to draw conclusions of line of sight (LOS) along the propagation path between a BTS or another AP transmitter and CPE receiver. For example, USGS image data and/or elevation data of locations are identified to correspond to signal propagation between the transmitter and receiver can be analyzed for LOS signal quality at a fixed location, in addition to the statistical model prediction of the RF signal quality. As a result, foliage or terrain that obstructs the LOS can be identified and utilized to improve SSP by eliminating the additional pathloss due to LOS obstructions. Such can provide a significant improvement to SSP results that are conventionally predicted by statistical models rather than a point-to-point analysis.

Abstract: A method and a network system capable of enhanced transmission of data signals in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system using a double-layer coordinated beamforming are disclosed. A first layer precoding matrix is obtained from long-term channel state information between user equipment and network equipment, and a second layer precoding matrix obtained from the first layer precoding matrix and from real-time channel state information between the user equipment and the network equipment. The real-time channel state information for the second layer precoding matrix determination includes a predetermined signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), and/or a predetermined power value associated with a single antenna of the user equipment, which are used as optimization parameters. The first and second layer precoding matrices are combined for the double-layer coordinated beamforming.

Abstract: Distribution of traffic to cells in a communication network can be controlled. A distribution management component (DMC) can determine overall device traffic throughput for cells of a sector that satisfy a defined traffic throughput criterion relating to a harmonic mean of the device traffic throughput for the cells to desirably enhance or maximize the harmonic mean of the overall device traffic throughput. Based on the overall device traffic throughput for the cells, the DMC can determine whether to adjust a characteristic associated with a cell of the cells to facilitate adjusting distribution of device traffic among the cells of the sector to achieve desirable load balancing of traffic by the sector and in the network. Load balancing can be achieved by controlling respective parameters with regard to communication devices that are in idle mode or connected mode to facilitate directing communication devices and associated traffic to desired cells.

Abstract: Schemaless systems and methods for automatically building and utilizing a chatbot knowledge base or the like. Textual analytics tools, such as natural language processing (NLP) and/or deep learning engines, are used to analyze the knowledge base and uncover and highlight gaps, which are turned into topics. Predetermined answers to these queries can then be prepared manually, or by an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm with alternative database visibility. In this manner, new question-and-answer (Q&A) pairs are generated by the systems and methods in an automated manner, for later use by a chatbot, coaching system, or the like. These processes are iterative. Advantageously, transferring the processes from manual control to automated control greatly conserves resources.
