Peter Pui Lok Ang

Technical expert in improving cellular modem energy efficiency.

Patent №: (April 9, 2024) – 11956779 – Downlink control indicator distribution for cross carrier scheduling. Methods involve generating slots in a control channel from a scheduling cell. Each slot contains control channel segments with control information like DCIs for scheduled cells, distributed over time for improved UE decoding timing.

He received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA, USA.

Mr. Bahl is a IEEE and ACM Fellow.

Patent №: 11956672 (April 9, 2024) – Techniques for adaptively determining cell boundary in wireless communications. Described are examples of receiving signal measurements from second vRAN workloads operating cells, computing a boundary of a first cell based on these measurements, and adjusting transmit parameters of the first vRAN workload accordingly.

Chih-Wei Hsu

Senior Manager at MediaTek

Experienced Senior Manager with a demonstrated history of working in the semiconductors industry. Skilled in Visual Basic, Perl, C++, RTL Coding, and Assembly Language. Strong professional with a Master’s degree focused in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from National Taiwan University.

Patent №: 11956469 (April 9, 2024) – Methods and apparatuses for coding video data with adaptive secondary transform signaling depending on TB level syntax. Conditional secondary transform signaling in encoding/decoding systems. Encoder adapts secondary transform index based on last significant coefficient’s position. Decoder infers need for inverse secondary transform from coefficients’ positions or parses secondary transform indices.

Patent №: 11956462 (April 9, 2024) – Video processing methods and apparatuses for sub-block motion compensation in video coding systems. Video processing methods: Coding a block involves partitioning, deriving motion vectors, and constraining them. Constraints based on block/sub-block size, prediction direction, or control point MVs.

Patent №: 11956421 (April 9, 2024) – Method and apparatus of luma most probable mode list derivation for video coding. Method and apparatus for video coding: In decoder, assigns predefined Intra mode to neighboring block if conditions met. Derives MPM list based on neighboring Intra modes, then derives current Intra mode and decodes luma block. If neighboring block coded in BDPCM mode, assigns predefined Intra mode based on prediction direction.

Michael Rizzolo

Senior Engineer & IBM Master Inventor: Semiconductor MRAM BEOL Integration

Patent №: 11955424 (April 9, 2024) – Semiconductor device including a porous dielectric layer, and method of forming the semiconductor device. A semiconductor device comprises a porous dielectric layer with a recess, a conductive layer in the recess, and a cap layer covering both. The porous dielectric layer’s upper surface is exposed through a gap in the cap layer.

Brian Mark Fields

Innovative Product Development

Brian synthesizes chaos into action. His research, consumer focus and leadership resulted in 4 production smartphone apps: Driver Feedback (B2C) Driver Feedback Instructor (B2B), Right Lane (B2C) and Drive Safe & Save Mobile (B2C).

Brian has end to end innovation experience in Trend Synthesis, Ethnography, Design Thinking, Prototyping and Deployment leading the development of 10 prototypes such as eye-tracking for drowsy and distracted driving.

Patent №: 11954482 (April 9, 2024) – Autonomous vehicle control assessment and selection. A method for autonomous vehicle operation involves identifying the operator, retrieving their profile, and receiving data from vehicle sensors. If a request to disable an autonomous feature is received, the risk level for the feature is compared to the driver behavior setting. Based on this, the vehicle either retains control or disengages the feature, prioritizing safety. This helps prevent unsafe disengagement of self-driving functionality and may lead to insurance discounts for equipped vehicles.
