Assaf Touboul
Vice President Technology at Qualcomm.
Patent №: 11923977 (March 5, 2024) – Decoder success predictor signaling for adjusting MIRS scheduling policy. A UE signals support for a decoder success prediction capability to a network node. The node adjusts transmission parameters based on this support indication and optimizes MIRS schedules for transmission or retransmission accordingly.
Patent №: 11923619 (March 5, 2024) – Butler matrix steering for multiple antennas. The disclosure involves beam steering at a multi-antenna device. It receives an activation signal to activate input ports of a Butler matrix, outputs signals from all output ports with varying phase shifts, and phase shifts these signals further via phase shifters.

Bruce H KenKnight
Mr. KenKnight received a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering (1984), a master’s (1990), and a Ph.D. (1997) in biomedical engineering in the College of Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota.
KenKnight is the vice president of Emerging Therapies, Cyberonics, Inc. He has spent the majority of his career in the medical device industry, focused on cardiac devices. Prior to Cyberonics, he served as research director at Guidant, Boston Scientific Corporation, and Valtech Cardio.
Patent №: 11918813 (March 5, 2024) – Neurostimulation titration process. Systems and methods deliver neurostimulation therapies to treat chronic heart failure, utilizing a titration process to gradually increase stimulation intensity to the desired therapeutic level. This approach minimizes titration time, expediting the delivery of stimulation at therapeutic levels.

Claes Tidestav
Research manager at Ericsson.
He received his M.S. degree in engineering physics from Uppsala University (UU), Uppsala, Sweden in January 1994 and his Ph.D. degree from the Signals and Systems Group, UU, in December 1999.
His research interests include all aspects of cellular systems, in particular, multiuser detection, interference rejection and parameter estimation and their impact on the capacity of a cellular system.
Patent №: 11924867 (March 5, 2024) – Efficient signaling of rate matching patterns.
A method, network node, and wireless device facilitate efficient signaling of rate matching patterns. The network node indicates to the wireless device whether certain resource elements associated with a reference signal are available for PDSCH-to-RE mapping. The wireless device receives this indication and the PDSCH accordingly.

Lei Huang
Recruiting engineers for wireless standards & algorithm research

Patent №: 11924761 (March 5, 2024) – Communication apparatus and communication method. In the disclosed method, a first communication device determines wake-up parameters and enters WUR (wake-up radio) mode by communicating with a second device. One parameter includes the duty cycle schedule of the WUR receiver, aligned with the TWBTT (target WUR Beacon transmission time).
