Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for inverse shaping for high dynamic range (HDR) video coding. A video coding device, e.g., such as a decoder, may determine a plurality of pivot points associated with a plurality of piecewise segments of an inverse reshaping model. The plurality of pivot points may be determined based on an indication received via a message. Each piecewise segment may be defined by a plurality of coefficients. The video coding device may receive an indication of a first subset of coefficients associated with the plurality of piecewise segments. The video coding device may calculate a second subset of coefficients based on the first subset of coefficients and the plurality of pivot points. The video coding device may generate an inverse reshaping model using one or more of the plurality of pivot points, the first subset of coefficients, and the second subset of coefficients.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are provided for reusing coding information extracted from SHVC bitstream during transcoding process, refining the coding information, and/or using the refined coding information in transcoding. A first bitstream, such as an SHVC bitstream that may include a base layer and/or one or more enhancement layers, may be received. Coding information, such as coding unit depth, coding unit prediction mode, motion information, intra direction mode, and/or transform unit depth may be extracted from the first bitstream. The first bitstream can be transcoded into a second bitstream (e.g., such as an HEVC bitstream) by refining and/or reusing at least part of the extracted coding information. The transcoder can adaptively select a coding information reuse transcoding mode from one or more, or a plurality, of transcoding modes, perhaps for example based on video signal characteristics.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for SIG Design for OFDMA in WLAN Systems. A protocol data unit (PDU), e.g. , a medium access control (MAC) PDU, may be transmitted. Data may be mapped to a plurality of OFDM symbols of the PDU. Each of the plurality of OFDM symbols may be associated with a first duration and a first length of data. A second length of data to be transmitted in a last OFDM symbol of the plurality of OFDM symbols may be determined to be less than the first length of data. The last OFDM symbol may be modified, for example, based on the second length of data, from the first duration to a second duration. The second duration may be ¼, ½, or ¾ of the first duration. An indication of the second duration of the last OFDM symbol may be sent.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for media caching proxy techniques (e.g., applications) that enable caching of multimedia content delivered, for example, using the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) protocol. A request may be received from a client for a media presentation description (MPD) file relating to media content. The media content may comprise a plurality of media segments. An MPD file may be received from cache. A subset of the plurality of media segments of the media content stored within the cache may be determined. An available bandwidth on a backhaul link may be determined. A dynamic MPD file may be generated based on the MPD file, the subset of the plurality of media segments of the media content that is stored within the cache of the middle box platform, and/or the available bandwidth on the backhaul link. The dynamic MPD file may be transmitted to the client.
Abstract:
A video block of a current picture may be coded in an intra block copy (IBC) mode. Weighted prediction may be disabled for the IBC-coded screen content video block. Fractional block vectors may be used for the chroma components of the IBC-coded video block. An interpolation filter may be utilized to generate chroma prediction samples for the video block. A decoded version of the current reference picture may be added to both reference picture list LO and reference picture list LI that are associated with the IBC-coded video block. When constrained intra prediction is applied, reference samples that may be used to predict an intra- coded video block may be limited to those in intra-coded neighboring blocks. The range of IBC searches may be restricted by imposing a maximum absolute value for block vectors.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for enhancing performance of multi-path communications. Multi-path communication performance may be enhanced by determining whether multi-path communications share a congested router. A multi-path real-time communication protocol may provide techniques to prevent, detect, communicate and respond to a shared congested router. A shared congested router may be prevented, and/or detected using one or more detection techniques.
Abstract:
A video sequence may include a first-temporal level picture and a second-temporal level picture. The first-temporal level picture may be associated with a first temporal level, and the second-temporal level picture may be associated with a second temporal level. The second- temporal level picture may reference the first-temporal level picture. A first chroma quantization parameter (QP) may be determined based on a temporal level of the first-temporal level picture. A second chrom a QP may be determined based on a temporal level of the second-temporal level picture. The first-temporal level picture may be encoded based on the first chroma QP to the first-temporal level picture and/or the second-temporal level picture may be encoded based on the second chroma QP to the second-temporal level picture. The first chroma QP may be different than the second chroma QP.

Techniques include performing one or more clear channel assessment (CCA) processes on a channel during the one or more CCA occasions to determine whether the channel is available at the one or more CCA occasion based on the one or more CCA processes. Techniques include sending the UL transmission in one or more UL subframes via the channel on at least a condition that the channel is determined to be available at the one or more CCA occasions. Techniques include performing the one or more CCA processes on the channel during another of the one or more CCA occasions on at least a condition that the channel is determined to be unavailable at a previous CCA occasion.

Systems and/or methods for determining an effective viewing time of an advertisement displayed on a device such that a price for the advertisement may be based on the effective viewing time may be provided. For example, first movement data based on a first movement of the device may be measured or determined. A time of displaying the advertisement on the device may be measured or determined, for example. During the time of displaying the advertisement, second movement data based on a second movement of the device may be measured and/or determined. The first movement data, the second movement data, and/or the time to an advertisement service may be sent (e.g., to an advertisement service) such that the effective viewing time for the advertisement and/or the price based thereon may be calculated or determined based on the first movement data, the second movement data, and/or the time.
Abstract:
Systems, methods and instrumentalities are disclosed to transmission scheduling. A station (STA) in its own basic service set (BSS) receiving a transmission frame from an overlapping BSS (OBSS). The STA may decode preamble of the received transmission frame. The STA may determine, for example, using the decoded preamble that OBSS information and transmit scheme associated with the OBSS. On a condition that the transmit scheme associated with the OBSS is orthogonal frequency divisional multiple access (OFDMA), the STA in its own BSS may indicate to its access point (AP) that one or more channels or sub-channels that are available or not available for transmission. On a condition that the transmit scheme determined from the preamble of the transmission frame is orthogonal frequency divisional multiplexing (OFDM), the STA may determine that a channel is not available for transmission. The STA may set the channel to busy or idle.
