Makesh Pravin John Wilson
Senior Staff Engineer/Manager at Qualcomm ADAS/Autonomous Systems R&D.
Patent №: 12169232 (December 17, 2024) – Radar and camera data fusion.
It obtains a radar point cloud and camera frames, estimates pixel depths, and generates a pseudo lidar point cloud as a 3D representation of the camera data. The device determines object bounding boxes using both the radar and pseudo lidar point clouds.
Andreas Nilsson
Andreas’ inventions revolve around multi-antenna technology, encompassing both user equipment and network nodes, with particularly significant contributions to massive MIMO and multi-TRP operations.
He is currently a Master Researcher and an integral part of the STAR Multi-Antenna (MA) Team. Andreas’ patent applications, including Standard Essential Patents (SEPs), align with the 3GPP standard for 5G NR and are further anticipated to be incorporated into the 6G standard in the near future. Outside of his own research, he is demonstrating leadership and coaching of fellow researchers.
Patent №: 12171016 (December 17, 2024) – Interference handling at radio access network nodes. The node obtains an indication of interference in a time/frequency interval. It queries a neighboring node about uplink scheduling in that interval and receives a response. The response includes information on uplink reference signal resources, ports, and their scheduling for terminal devices.
Wen Gao
Senior Researcher at Tencent Media Lab.
Patent №: 12169953 (December 17, 2024) – Predictive tree-based geometry coding for a point cloud.
The method reduces the number of contexts by shrinking the array size for syntax elements in predictive tree-based coding. The point cloud data is then decoded using the reduced contexts.
