Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods related to an image processor formed in an array of memory cells are described. An image processor as described herein is configured to reduce complexity and power consumption and/or increase data access bandwidth by performing image processing in the array of memory cells relative to image processing by a host processor external to the memory array. For instance, one apparatus described herein includes sensor circuitry configured to provide an input vector, as a plurality of bits that corresponds to a plurality of color components for an image pixel, and an image processor formed in an array of memory cells. The image processor is coupled to the sensor circuitry to receive the plurality of bits of the input vector. The image processor is configured to perform a color correction operation in the array by performing matrix multiplication on the input vector and a parameter matrix to determine an output vector that is color corrected.

Abstract: Examples described herein include methods, devices, and systems which may implement different processing stages for wireless communication in processing units. Such data processing may include a source data processing stage, a baseband processing stage, a digital front-end processing stage, and a radio frequency (RF) processing stage. Data may be received from a sensor of device and then processed in the stages to generate output data for transmission. Processing the data in the various stages may occur during an active time period of a discontinuous operating mode. During the active time period, a reconfigurable hardware platform may allocate all or a portion of the processing units to implement the processing stages. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for 5G (e.g., New Radio (NR)) wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Abstract: Examples described herein include apparatuses and methods for full duplex device-to-device cooperative communication. Example systems described herein may include self-interference noise calculators. The output of a self-interference noise calculator may be used to compensate for the interference experienced due to signals transmitted by another antenna of the same wireless device or system. In implementing such a self-interference noise calculator, a selected wireless relaying device or wireless destination device may operate in a full-duplex mode, such that relayed messages may be transmitted as well as information from other sources or destinations during a common time period (e.g., symbol, slot, subframe, etc.).

Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of configuration modes for baseband units (BBU) and remote radio heads (RRH). For example, a computing system including a BBU and a RRH may receive a configuration mode selection including information indicative of a configuration mode for respective processing units of the BBU and the RRH. The computing system may allocate the respective processing units to perform wireless processing stages associated with a wireless protocol. The BBU and/or the RRH may generate an output data stream based on the mixing of coefficient data with input data at the BBU and/or the RRH. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for 5G (e.g., New Radio (NR)) wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of mixing input data with coefficient data. For example, a computing system with processing units may mix the input data for a transmission in a radio frequency (RF) wireless domain with the coefficient data to generate output data that is representative of the transmission being processed according to the wireless protocol in the RF wireless domain. A computing device may be trained to generate coefficient data based on the operations of a wireless transceiver such that mixing input data using the coefficient data generates an approximation of the output data, as if it were processed by the wireless transceiver. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for 5G wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for tensor memory access are described. Multiple data located in different physical addresses of memory may be concurrently read or written by, for example, employing various processing patterns of tensor or matrix related computations. A memory controller, which may comprise a data address generator, may be configured to generate a sequence of memory addresses for a memory access operation based on a starting address and a dimension of a tensor or matrix. At least one dimension of a tensor or matrix may correspond to a row, a column, a diagonal, a determinant, or an Nth dimension of the tensor or matrix. The memory controller may also comprise a buffer configured to read and write the data generated from or according to a sequence of memory of addresses.

Abstract: A system and method detect a row hammer attack on the memory media device and generates a hardware interrupt based on the detection of the row hammer attack. This row hammer interrupt is communicated to an operating system of a host computing device, which in turn performs an interrupt service routine including generating a command to perform a row hammer mitigation operation. This command is provided to the memory controller which performs the row hammer mitigation operation in response to the command such as activating victim row(s) of the memory media device or throttling data traffic to the memory media device.

A decoder/precoder may be configured to receive the signal indicative of the presence or absence of the wireless communication signal and to decode the symbols responsive to a signal indicative of the presence of the wireless communication signal. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for implementing data flows in a processor are described herein. A data flow manager may be configured to generate a configuration packet for a compute operation based on status information regarding multiple processing elements of the processor. Accordingly, multiple processing elements of a processor may concurrently process data flows based on the configuration packet. For example, the multiple processing elements may implement a mapping of processing elements to memory, while also implementing identified paths, through the processor, for the data flows. After executing the compute operation at certain processing elements of the processor, the processing results may be provided. In speech signal processing operations, the processing results may be compared to phonemes to identify such components of human speech in the processing results. Once dynamically identified, the processing elements may continue comparing additional components of human speech to facilitate processing of an audio recording, for example.

Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of an autocorrelation calculator. An electronic device including an autocorrelation calculator may be configured to calculate an autocorrelation matrix including an autocorrelation of symbols indicative of a first narrowband Internet of Things (IoT) transmission and a second narrowband IoT transmission. The electronic device may calculate the autocorrelation matrix based on a stored autocorrelation matrix and the autocorrelation of symbols indicative of the first narrowband IoT transmission and symbols indicative of the second narrowband IoT transmission. The stored autocorrelation matrix may represent another received signal at a different time period than a time period of the first and second narrowband IoT transmission. Examples of the systems and methods may facilitate the processing of data for wireless and may utilize less memory space than a device than a scheme that stores and calculates autocorrelation from a large dataset computed from various time points.
