This disclosure describes decoding inter-predicted video blocks by using a joint delta motion vector (MV). A coded bitstream is received, a flag determines if two delta MVs are jointly signaled, the vectors are derived from a joint MV when indicated, and the block is decoded accordingly.

A first device checks if a second device supports aggregating buffer status report (BSRP) trigger frames with other frames. If supported, it sends both in one aggregated packet; otherwise, it sends only the BSRP trigger frame.

A user device measures CSI-RS and DMRS from a base station, generates channel state information (CSI) from them, and reports it back to the base station.

Xin Zhao

Video codec research engineer.

A decoder processes a coded video bitstream by decoding transform coefficients for an L-shaped coding block, dividing it into rectangular sub-blocks, determining residuals for each sub-block, and reconstructing the block’s samples from those residuals.

This disclosure describes a 5G-IoT communication system supporting high data rates for smart services such as smart homes, cities, and vehicles. A terminal’s PDCP entity performs deciphering and integrity verification of received data, reports any verification failure to upper layers, and discards corrupted data.

A device analyzes event data and travel distances between individuals and entities to identify geographic areas with potential opportunities for specific entity categories, then sends a notification about the detected opportunity.

Abhishek R Appu

GPU/AI Hardware Architect/Micro-Architect.

An apparatus includes ray traversal hardware with multiple storage banks to process rays through a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH). A cache temporarily stores traversal data, and a switch matrix with an arbiter dynamically connects cache banks to storage banks each cycle.

Technical Manager of Diffusion Program of Advanced Module Technology Division, Research and Development Organization.

A semiconductor device has two etch stop layers of different thicknesses over a source/drain plug and a gate, with a dielectric and contacts formed above them.

Shuanshuan Wu

Research Engineer.

This disclosure describes techniques for sidelink communication where a user device identifies physical resource blocks (PRBs) not part of assigned sub-channels and uses these remaining or special PRBs for additional communication purposes.

A method enables semantic search using a neural network–based vector space of concepts. A user’s query is converted into a vector, compared to concept vectors by distance, and related concepts are displayed as search suggestions in the interface.

Sandra Choi

Creative Director at Jimmy Choo.

Chunhao J Lee

Technical Fellow at General Motors.

A system for electric or hybrid vehicles uses multiple battery packs controlled by a controller that switches between operational modes. The modes define how the packs connect to the motors—either in series or in parallel—based on driving conditions.

Consulting Engineer – Composites at General Electric Aviation.

A composite airfoil assembly includes a composite airfoil with an outer wall and skin, a spar with a stem, base, and transition section, and a wrap. The outer wall extends from root to tip and defines an interior space.

Jason Richard Hoover

AVP Product Engineering.

Systems and methods enable vehicle tracking by detecting a physical marker at a parking space. The vehicle captures and processes an image of the marker to determine and display its location.

Michael F Angelo

Distinguished Technologist – CRISC CISSP CDPSE, ISSA Hall of Fame, ISSA Distinguished Fellow.

A surgical instrument includes paired metal jaws that can deliver both heat and radiofrequency (RF) energy. Each jaw has a microwave emitter that converts microwave energy to heat for sealing or coagulating tissue and electrodes for applying RF energy to cut tissue.

Robert D Turney

Control Systems Fellow, Johnson Controls Advanced Development Engineering Center.

A refrigerant charge controller uses machine learning to analyze HVAC usage data, estimate refrigerant levels, detect deficiencies, and trigger corrective actions when low refrigerant is identified.

Matthew J Bernett

Executive Director of Protein and Antibody Engineering at Xencor.

The invention relates to targeted heterodimeric Fc fusion proteins combining an IL-15/IL-15Rα Fc fusion with an NKG2D antigen-binding domain Fc fusion for enhanced therapeutic activity.
