    Abstract: On the downlink, a mobile radio signal transmitted by a base station and a television signal may be received over the downlink by an external television aerial located on a building roof. After reception, these signals may be transmitted via a wired communication link to a processing module located in a confined space in which the terminal is located. The mobile radio signal may be extracted, amplified and sent by the processing module so as to be received by the terminal. On the downlink, the terminal may transmit a mobile radio signal to a base station. Alternatively, the terminal may transmit a radiofrequency signal received by the processing module which amplifies it and transmits it to a base station, with or without frequency transposition, and with or without format conversion.

    Abstract: A priority-resource-limited CoMP scheme is proposed based on a coordination priority index of users which comes into play to perform cooperation set selection and resource allocation in small cell networks. The CoMP control unit (CCU) configures and then transmits to the donor (serving) Transmission/Reception Point (TRP) the coordination priority index which is determined as a function of the required Bit Rate for that specific User Equipment and the SINR or the CQI. The donor Transmission/Reception Point (TRP) then transmits the coordination priority indexes sent by the CCU to the corresponding User Equipment (UE)s. The configuration of the coordination priority index allows the User Equipment to select a subset of Channel State Information reports or Channel State Information quantities to report so that the threshold index of the coordination priority is met.

    Abstract: The disclosure describes one or more embodiments of systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that modify vertex positions of a 3D-object mesh to align the vertices with discontinuities indicated by a sharpness map for a displacement map. For example, the disclosed systems access a sharpness map that encodes discontinuities of a displacement map to preserve sharp features. During sharp tessellation, for a given vertex of the 3D-object mesh, the disclosed systems iterate over neighboring vertices to search for a nearest intersection between one of the incident edges of the vertex and neighboring vertices and a discontinuity line from the sharpness map. Then, the vertex is moved within a threshold distance of the nearest discontinuity line intersection along the incident edge. The disclosed systems similarly reposition other vertices of the 3D-object mesh to generate a modified 3D-object mesh that includes vertices that align with discontinuities present in a displacement map.

    Abstract: This method can be used to locate or identify an object in an electrically conductive medium with a detection system that comprises n electrodes in direct electrical contact with the conductive medium. The n electrodes can be placed in at least three different states: transmitting, receiving, disconnected. Before a series of measurements, the operating point of the detection system is determined according to a given a priori setpoint, or a previous configuration of the system, or a previous measurement result of one of the electrodes, by the configuration of the state of each of the electrodes, the frequency of a sinusoidal component of an electrical signal transmitted by one of the transmitting electrodes, or the amplitude of the electrical signal transmitted by one of the electrodes configured in the transmitting or receiving state.

    Abstract: A method for implementing linear view-change in a BFT protocol running on a distributed system including n replicas, wherein no more than t of the n replicas are faulty, and wherein the BFT protocol enables the non-faulty replicas to agree on how to sequence execution of a plurality of service operations originating from one or more clients. The method including executing, among and by the n replicas, a phase φ of the BFT protocol, communicating instances of a lock certificate being associated with said phase; and if 2t+1 communicating instances of said lock certificate are not received by the n replicas within a predetermined timeout period, initiating a view-change with at least the following step: if said current phase φ is different than 1, each replica Pi(i=1 . . . n) sets φi the highest phase up to said current phase.

    Abstract: The disclosure describes one or more embodiments of systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that utilize a sharpness map that includes information on how to filter a displacement map on a per-texel basis to preserve sharp features while sampling a displacement map. For instance, the disclosed systems utilize a sharpness map that encodes combinable patterns to represent discontinuities of features within a displacement map. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems generate a sharpness map having texels encoded with discontinuity configurations that are referenced to control filtering (e.g., via interpolation) of a displacement map such that sharp features within the displacement map are not lost (due to smoothing during interpolation). For example, the disclosed systems filter feature values of a displacement map using discontinuities identified within a sharpness map to interpolate when the feature value(s) and a sampling point are identified as being on the same side of a discontinuity.
