Patent number: 12195209Abstract: In a search and tracking method for full time-domain laser detection of space debris, a set of latest precision orbital parameters of a debris object and start and end moments of a current transit of the object are first obtained. Search-specific guidance data is generated based on the above information and in combination with estimation of a maximum along-track error of the orbital parameters of the object during the current transit. A DLR system performs multi-elevation search on the object based on the search-specific guidance data, obtains a plurality of pieces of detection data of the object after detecting the object during the search, determines an along-track error of the orbital parameters of the object based on the detection data, and corrects the orbital parameters of the object in real time based on the along-track error, so as to guide the DLR system to subsequently track and detect the object.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2024Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: Purple Mountain Observatory, Chinese Academy of SciencesInventors: Jin Xu, Zhibin Cao, Kejun Liu, Jianli Du, Jianbo Ma, Dong Yang

Patent number: 12188150Abstract: A method for clonal-growth of a single-crystal metal, including: using copper as an example, placing an existing small-sized single-crystal copper foil with a plane of any index on a copper foil that needs to be single-crystallized, and performing annealing to obtain, by cloning, a large-area (in meters) single-crystal copper foil with the same surface index as that of the parent facet. The method solves the difficult problem of large-area single-crystal copper foil preparation. By performing annealing, a parent single-crystal copper foil with a very small size (˜0.25 cm2) can be cloned to produce a large-area (˜700 cm2) single-crystal copper foil, which is an increase in area of about 3000 times.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2019Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: PEKING UNIVERSITYInventors: Kaihui Liu, Zhibin Zhang, Muhong Wu, Dapeng Yu, Enge Wang

Patent number: 12192785Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for transmit/receive (TX/RX) beam association in millimeter wave (mmW) vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. In conventional wireless systems, a node (e.g., gNB) that manages wireless resources is typically stationary. This means that transmissions from the network node over the same TX beam using the same antenna array orientation can be assumed to be quasi-collocated (QCLed) and communications may be established using fixed-to-mobile beam management approach. However, if the transmitting node is mobile, a quasi-collocation (QCL) assumption may not be valid. To address issues due to mobility of the nodes that manage wireless resources, a mobile-to-mobile beam management approach is proposed.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2019Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Jose Edson Vargas, Tao Luo, Zhibin Wu, Makesh Pravin John Wilson, Sudhir Kumar Baghel, Shailesh Patil

Patent number: 12193012Abstract: An approach for wireless communications to support reduced capability New Radio (NR) with larger available control resource sets (CORESET) bandwidths. Examples include a frequency-hopping CORESET with a predefined hopping pattern configured by higher layers, such as RRC signaling or MAC Control Element (CE) on a per CORESET per UE or purely per UE basis. Frequency hopping patterns for CORESET transmissions include the use of PRBs for CORESETs that are mirrored with respect to the central frequency of active bandwidth part (BWP), and the use of a random parameter to step through the frequency pattern. The sub-band location of the physical downlink shared channel that is scheduled by the physical downlink control channel may be indicated using the DCI format, or may be based on a last slot for PDCCH transmission.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2020Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Hong He, Chunhai Yao, Dawei Zhang, Haitong Sun, Jie Cui, Wei Zeng, Yang Tang, Yushu Zhang, Zhibin Wu

Patent number: 12177925Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods enable layer 2 (L2) relaying optimizations for a remote user equipment (UE) to receive system information (SI) from a relay UE. The relay UE may establish a sidelink communication channel with the remote UE that is in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state, an RRC inactive state, or an out-of-coverage (OOC) state with respect to the base station. The relay UE decodes a relay SI request received through the sidelink communication channel from the first remote UE. The relay SI request indicates requested system information. The Relay UE obtains the requested system information or a subset of the requested system information from a memory device or from the base station and encodes a relay SI response to send to the first remote UE. The relay SI response includes the requested system information or the subset of the requested system information.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2021Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Zhibin Wu, Fangli Xu, Birgit Breining, Dawei Zhang, Haijing Hu, Longda Xing, Sethuraman Gurumoorthy, Srirang A.

Patent number: 12177561Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a location of a wearable electronic device are disclosed. In some aspects, the device includes a position acquisition device and an accelerometer. A hardware processor included in the device may be configured to generally maintain the position acquisition device in a low power state to save power. When a video or image is captured, it may tag the video or image with first location information. Given the inoperative position acquisition device, a current location may not be known. In some aspects, in response to a need for location information, measurements from an accelerometer may be stored. The position acquisition device may also be transitioned to an operative state, and after some time delay, a second location determined. In some aspects, the location of the capture may then be obtained based on the acceleration measurements and the second location.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2023Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Zhibin Zhang, Russell Douglas Patton, Peter Brook, Dunxu Hu
