  • Publication number: 20230360425
    Abstract: A method and device are disclosed for estimating an interaction with the device. The method includes configuring a first token and a second token of an estimation model according to first features of a 3D object, applying a first weight to the first token to produce a first-weighted input token and applying a second weight that is different from the first weight to the second token to produce a second-weighted input token, and generating, by a first encoder layer of an estimation-model encoder of the estimation model, an output token based on the first-weighted input token and the second-weighted input token. The method may include receiving, at a 2D feature extraction model, the first features from a backbone, extracting, by the 2D feature extraction model, second features including 2D features, and receiving, at the estimation-model encoder, data generated based on the 2D features.

  • Patent number: 10136405
    Abstract: Apparatuses (including user equipment (UE) and modem chips for UE), systems, and methods for calculating more accurate Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurements and/or detecting/eliminating ghost cells from a list of (supposed) neighboring cells are described. In one method, the cross-correlations between adjacent Cell-specific Reference Signals (CRSs) are used to calculate the RSRP and to detect any ghost cells in a list of (supposed) neighboring cells. Any detected ghost cell may be deleted from any searches and measurements by the UE, and may also be reported to the network.

  • Patent number: 8843792
    Abstract: A control channel may be used to transmit control information, such as Downlink Control Information (DCI), to a mobile device from a network component, such as a base station or a base node. The mobile device may use a blind decoding scheme to detect DCIs. A DCI may be falsely detected by the mobile device. According to some embodiments, data that has been decoded by a blind decoder, from buffer data for a candidate control channel, is re-encoded. The re-encoded data is compared to buffer data for the control channel. The decoded data is treated as control information dependent on the comparison of the re-encoded data with the buffer data. In some embodiments, comparing the re-encoded data to the buffer data includes generating a metric as a function of a degree of similarity between the re-encoded data and the buffer data. The metric may be compared to a threshold.

  • Patent number: 8830859
    Abstract: Method and devices for use in a wireless device are described herein. A signal is received over a plurality of time segments, the signal over each time segment including a plurality of resource element blocks. For each time segment, at least one resource element block is selected from the plurality of resource element blocks of the time segment based on information determined about the time segment. For each time segment, a power value associated with the at least one resource element block of the time segment is determined. For each time segment, a gain adjustment value to adjust the gain of the time segment or one or more subsequent time segments of the signal is determined based upon the power value associated with the at least one resource element block.

  • Patent number: 8824535
    Abstract: There are disclosed systems and methods that dynamically vary the word length of data being transmitted through a digital interface. In one embodiment, the method comprises: (i) obtaining at least one parameter indicative of a quality of a signal; (ii) if the at least one parameter indicates that the quality of the signal is above a threshold, then transmitting the data as a number of digital words at a first predetermined word length; (ii) if the at least one parameter indicates that the quality of the signal is below the threshold, then transmitting the data as a number of digital words at a second predetermined word length. The second predetermined word length is different from the first predetermined word length.
