Patent №: 12108076 (October 1, 2024) – Index reordering of bi-prediction with CU-level weight (BCW) by using template-matching.
The apparatus includes processing circuitry that decodes bi-prediction information with coding unit (CU)-level weights (BCW) for a current block. It performs template matching (TM) by calculating TM costs for each BCW candidate weight.

Patent №: 12108056 (October 1, 2024) – Signalling of EOB for one dimensional transform skip. The method includes receiving an entropy-encoded video bitstream with a two-dimensional transform block. It determines if a one-dimensional transform skip is applied based on a syntax element. If applied, an end position value (horizontal or vertical) is obtained from the bitstream, and the transform block is retrieved according to this value.
Patent №: 12108037 (October 1, 2024) – Loop filter block flexible partitioning. A method of loop filtering involves receiving and analyzing image data. The image is partitioned into loop filtering blocks (LFBs) with flexible sizes. Some LFBs in a row or column may be smaller than others. A loop filter is then applied to the LFBs.
Patent №: 12108031 (October 1, 2024) – Harmonized design among multiple reference line intra prediction, transform partitioning and transform kernels. A method includes retrieving a data block with adjacent and non-adjacent reference lines in a video frame. It determines whether to use a non-adjacent reference line for intra prediction. If an adjacent line is used, a transform kernel is selected from a first set, and if a non-adjacent line is used, the transform kernel is selected from a second set.
Patent №: 12107663 (October 1, 2024) – Unmanned aerial system communication. Systems and methods provide UAV connection monitoring and location reporting. A method includes receiving a UAV location report from a server, and receiving a lost connection report.

Patent №: 12108419 (October 1, 2024) – Hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment for multiple multicast transmissions. Resource allocation techniques assign uplink control resources for acknowledging downlink multicast data.
A user equipment (UE) receives multicast data from a base station, determines an uplink resource like PUCCH for transmitting ACK/NACK feedback, and sends the feedback for the multicast services using the allocated resource.
Patent №: 12108417 (October 1, 2024) – Bandwidth part switching using unicast, multicast, and broadcast bandwidth parts. A user equipment (UE) may receive indications of a first common frequency resource (CFR) for multicast and a second CFR for broadcast, each associated with different bandwidth parts. The UE determines whether to switch bandwidth parts for downlink communications based on these CFR indications.
Patent №: 12108408 (October 1, 2024) – Providing cross-carrier scheduling control information for a primary cell via both a secondary cell and the primary cell. Methods for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) involve carrier aggregation with primary and secondary cells. The UE monitors control information on the secondary cell for data communications on the primary cell during specific intervals and switches to monitoring the primary cell during other intervals.
Patent №: 12108308 (October 1, 2024) – User equipment assistance information for multicast and broadcast services. The UE sends a message with UE assistance information (UAI) to a network node, indicating its capability to process multicast transmissions or its feedback preference. The UAI may include preferences for multicast carriers, priorities, or reporting schemes.
Patent №: 12108293 (October 1, 2024) – Switching satellites in fixed radio cell. A wireless communication method includes a user equipment (UE) selecting a first satellite cell, performing cell reselection to a second satellite, and establishing a connection for paging or communication.
Patent №: 12107794 (October 1, 2024) – Small packet optimizations for internet-of-things applications. This disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for optimizing the delivery of small amounts of mobile-originated (MO) or mobile-terminated (MT) data.

Patent №: 12107912 (October 1, 2024) – Embedding remote applications into HTML pages.
The method identifies a frame in the HTML page for the remote application. It determines the window size or position on a virtual desktop. A remote access session is established. A message with the window details is sent. The frame is displayed in the HTML page to show the remote application’s output.
