  • Patent number: 11836263
    Abstract: Protecting data privacy in secure multi-party computation and communication is provided. A method of protecting data privacy includes determining a differential privacy configuration, determining a number of iterations based on a first parameter and a second parameter, and for each of the number of iterations generating a random value and a random noise data; generating a first message and a second message; and performing a transfer based on the first message, the second message, and an input data to output one of the first message and the second message. The method also includes generating a first noise data based on the random noise data in each of the number of iterations, generating a first share based on a first dataset and a second dataset, applying the first noise data to the first share, and constructing a result based on the first share and a second share.

  • Patent number: 11838568
    Abstract: A media processing tool adds custom data to an elementary media bitstream or media container. The custom data indicates nominal range of samples of media content, but the meaning of the custom data is not defined in the codec format or media container format. For example, the custom data indicates the nominal range is full range or limited range. For playback, a media processing tool parses the custom data and determines an indication of media content type. A rendering engine performs color conversion operations whose logic changes based at least in part on the media content type. In this way, a codec format or media container format can in effect be extended to support full nominal range media content as well as limited nominal range media content, and hence preserve full or correct color fidelity, while maintaining backward compatibility and conformance with the codec format or media container format.

  • Patent number: 11831427
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a reduced capability user equipment (UE) may receive signaling indicating a set of repetition levels for receiving control information from a base station and a blind detection threshold for decoding the control information. Upon receiving the signaling, the reduced capability UE may monitor a control channel candidate for the control information based on the set of repetition levels. Once the reduced capability UE detects the control information from the monitoring, the reduced capability UE may perform at least one blind detection on the control channel candidate based on the set of repetition levels and the blind detection threshold and receive the control information from the base station.

  • Patent number: 11825561
    Abstract: An apparatus for use in a UE includes processing circuitry coupled to a memory. To configure the UE for a 4-step random access procedure with a gNB in a 5G-NR network, the processing circuitry is to encode a first message for transmission to the gNB using a PRACH, the first message including a random access preamble. A second message received from the gNB in response to the first message is decoded. The second message includes a MAC RAR with an uplink (UL) grant and an indication of an LBT procedure type or a channel access and CP extension. An LBT procedure based on the LBT procedure type or the channel access and CP extension provided in the indication is performed. Data is encoded for transmission to the gNB based on successful completion of the LBT procedure, the transmission using a PUSCH, and a UL resource indicated by the UL grant.

  • Patent number: 11818773
    Abstract: An apparatus for a UE includes processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for shared spectrum channel access in a 5G-NR system, the processing circuitry is to decode a synchronization signal (SS)/physical broadcast channel (PBCH) block (SSB) to obtain a master information block (MIB). System information block 1 (SIB1) configuration information is determined using the MIB. The SIB1 configuration information is used to configure a Type 0 PDCCH common search space (CSS) set (CORESET). The processing circuitry is to monitor for a PDCCH in the Type 0 PDCCH CSS set over slots that include Type 0 PDCCH monitoring occasions. At least one of the slots includes the SSB and the CORESET multiplexed according to multiplexing pattern 1. The PDCCH is detected in at least one of the Type 0 PDCCH monitoring occasions. A SIB1 is decoded using downlink control information (DCI) received via the detected PDCCH.
