  • Patent number: 11637697
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method of digitally signing input by a data processing (DP) accelerator operation, and embedding the digitally signed input into an output, includes receiving, from a host device, a signature kernel specifying input to the signature kernel and executing the signature kernel to: extract a watermark from the input and obtain a hash for the watermark; generate output from the input; and embed the hash into the output. The DP accelerator provides the output to the host device. In an embodiment, the input includes an artificial intelligence (AI) model that is executed by the DP accelerator. The DP accelerator receives second input from the host, thereby producing an inference output from the AI model. The digitally signed watermark of the AI Model is embedded into the inference output and is provided to the host device.

  • Patent number: 11615320
    Abstract: An approach includes identification of a machine learning model for processing and generating an ordered set of weights with varying precisions and metadata that specifies where those values can be found in order to allow the identification of weights needed during processing. In a first embodiment, the variable precision weights are separated into different memory segments where each segment has weights of only a single precision. In a second embodiment, the variable precision weights are provided in a memory where weights of different precisions are intermingled, and those weights are identified using a sequence of pairs of data representing a number of weights with the same precision and the precision of those weights.

  • Patent number: 11616565
    Abstract: A first beam is implemented, from a set of vehicle-based antennas, for current or future communication with a ground-based or satellite-based network via an external antenna (e.g., of a base station or satellite). A second beam may be implemented to detect or determine a better pointing angle for the first beam, thereby “fine tuning” the pointing angle for the first beam. Specifically, the second beam may be “swept” through a range of pointing angles while a signal parameter representing signal quality or strength is measured, detected, or calculated at each pointing angle. The values for the signal parameter may be evaluated to identify a desired value and the pointing angle at which the desired value was obtained. The first beam may be reoriented or repointed at the desired pointing angle, and one or more nodes of vehicle-based communication system may communicate with an external network via the first beam.

  • Patent number: 11616651
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a system receives, at a host channel manager (HCM) of a host system, a request from an application to establish a secure channel with a data processing (DP) accelerator, where the DP accelerator is coupled to the host system over a bus. In response to the request, the system generates a first session key for the secure channel based on a first private key of a first key pair associated with the HCM and a second public key of a second key pair associated with the DP accelerator. In response to a first data associated with the application to be sent to the DP accelerator, the system encrypts the first data using the first session key. The system then transmits the encrypted first data to the DP accelerator via the secure channel over the bus.

  • Patent number: 11612007
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a low power dissipation Bluetooth mesh network system and a communication method thereof. The Bluetooth mesh network system includes a friend node and a lower power node. The friend node operates as a proxy server terminal to perform a proxy server broadcast. The lower power node operates as a proxy client and establishes a connection with the friend node based on a proxy protocol when the proxy server broadcast is received and identified. The friend node further filters out an invalid packet unrelated to the low power node and stores a valid packet related to the low power node so as to transmit the valid packet to the low power node when the low power node switches from a sleep status to a wakeup status.

  • Patent number: 11601853
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of and apparatus for controlling a ProSe service in a communication system. An eNB sends a first PLMN identifier, and carrier frequency information of another PLMN to indicate at least one carrier frequency at which a UE of the other PLMN can carry out the ProSe service, to a UE in a shared cell, and if the UE is in an idle state, then the UE reselects a cell or selects a PLMN; or if the UE is in a connected state, then the UE performs a handover procedure. If the handover procedure fails, then the UE releases an RRC connection to enter the idle states, or is DRX-configured and carries out the ProSe service in a DRX sleep time. With the solution of the invention, the UE can reselect or be handed over to the cell to carry out the ProSe service at the carrier frequency indicated by the carrier frequency information to thereby avoid the problem of an overload arising from too many ProSe services being carried out concurrently in the shared cell.
