Abstract:
An apparatus (e.g., receive chain) for wireless communications may perform de-interleaving, de-rate matching, and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) combining in a single step. The apparatus may include a data pool configured to store HARQ log likelihood ratio (LLR) data from previous transmissions. The apparatus may include a HARQ onload controller configured to load HARQ LLR data from the HARQ data pool into a HARQ buffer. The apparatus may include an LLR buffer configured to store received demodulated, interleaved, and rate matched LLR data. The apparatus may include a plurality of processing engines configured to, starting at different locations of the LLR buffer: receive new input data from the LLR buffer; combine the HARQ LLR data from the HARQ buffer with the new input data to generate de-interleaved, de-rate matched, and HARQ combined data; and write the de-interleaved, de-rate matched, and HARQ combined data into the HARQ buffer.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of methods and systems for bit flip identification for debugging and/or power management in a system on a chip (“SoC”) are disclosed. Exemplary embodiments seek to identify bit flip occurrences near in time to the occurrences by checking parity values of data blocks as the data blocks are written into a memory component. In this way, bit flips occurring in association with a write transaction may be differentiated from bit flips occurring in association with a read transaction. The distinction may be useful, when taken in conjunction with various parameter levels identified at the time of a bit flip recognition, to debug a memory component or, when in a runtime environment, adjust thermal and power policies that may be contributing to bit flip occurrences.
Abstract:
In general, techniques are described for constructing a merging candidate list for coding video data according to a merge mode and/or a skip mode. In some examples, the techniques include identifying one or more spatial merging candidates (SMCs) and an inter-view merging candidate (IVMC) for inclusion in a merging candidate list, and comparing the motion information of at least one of the SMCs to the motion information of the IVMC. In such examples, if the SMC has the same motion information as the IVMC, the techniques may further include pruning the merging candidate list to exclude the one of the merging candidates from the merging candidate list.
