Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a communication framework that enables computerized functionality for a climate system's improved operation. The disclosed framework enables a location's climate system to be controlled via a centralized hub, which can be accessed remotely using a mobile application or web interface. The enabled communication network and functionality enables dynamic monitoring and control of the devices/components of a location's climate system, which can be effectuated from anywhere (e.g., at the location or away from the location), providing functionality for increased flexibility and convenience. The disclosed communication framework provides a reliable and secure wireless communication platform for climate system components, enabling improved energy efficiency, comfort and control for residential and commercial locations (e.g., buildings).

Disclosed embodiments include a system having a first memory, a second memory, circuitry that reads data quantities from the first memory along a first orientation, a compression engine that compresses each of the read data quantities to produce corresponding compressed data quantities, and circuitry that writes the compressed data quantities to the second memory along a second orientation which differs from the first orientation. The read data quantities have a first bit width and the compressed data quantities have a second bit width that is less than the first bit width.

A system and method for low-power digital signal processing, for example, comprising adjusting a digital representation of an input signal.

A digital down converter includes a low resolution mixer, a decimation filter, and a high resolution mixer. The low resolution mixer is configured to receive a digitized radio frequency signal, and apply a first down conversion to the radio frequency signal to produce an intermediate frequency signal. The decimation filter is coupled to the low resolution mixer. The decimation filter is configured to receive the intermediate frequency signal, and reduce a sampling rate of the intermediate frequency signal to produce a decimated intermediate frequency signal. The high resolution mixer is coupled to the decimation filter. The high resolution mixer is configured to receive the decimated intermediate frequency signal, and apply a second down conversion to the decimated intermediate frequency signal to produce a down converted signal.

Disclosed embodiments include a system having a first memory for storing a plurality of data quantities, each data quantity consisting of a first number of bits, and a second memory for storing a plurality of compressed data quantities, each compressed data quantity consisting of a second number of bits that is less than the first number of bits. The system includes circuitry for reading data quantities from the first memory and for writing compressed data quantities, corresponding to respective read data quantities, to non-sequential addresses in the second memory. The circuitry for reading data quantities from the first memory is for reading along a read orientation selected from one of row-orientation or column-orientation from the first memory, and the circuitry for writing compressed data quantities in the second memory is for writing along a write orientation in the second memory that differs from the read orientation.

A system, method and computer program product for encoding an input string of binary characters representing alphanumeric characters. A system includes: a character writing engine for writing a binary character to an empty cell of a multi-dimensional shape beginning with a starting empty cell; a next cell determination engine for determining a next empty cell by traversing neighboring cells in the multi-dimensional shape until an empty cell is located; a loop facilitator for looping back to the character writing engine and the next cell determining engine until no more data characters or a next empty cell is not determined; and a serialization engine for serializing the cells into a one dimensional binary string of characters representing an encoded string of alphanumeric characters.

A compression algorithm based on Huffman coding is disclosed that is adapted to be readily implemented using VLSI design. A data file may be processed to replace duplicate data with a copy commands including an offset and length, such as according to the LV algorithm. A Huffman code may then be generated for parts of the file. The Huffman code may be generated according to a novel method that generates Huffman code lengths for literals in a data file without first sorting the literal statistics. The Huffman code lengths may be constrained to be no longer than a maximum length and the Huffman code may be modified to provide an acceptable overflow probability and be in canonical order. Literals, offsets, and lengths may be separately encoded. The different values for these data sets may be assigned to a limited number of bins for purpose of generating usage statistics used for generating Huffman codes.

Systems and methods are disclosed for conserving power consumption in a memory system. One such system comprises a system on chip (SoC) and an encoder. The SoC comprises one or more memory clients for accessing a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) memory system coupled to the SoC. The encoder resides on the SoC and is configured to reduce a data activity factor of memory data received from the memory clients by encoding the received memory data according to a compression scheme and providing the encoded memory data to the DRAM memory system. The DRAM memory system is configured to decode the encoded memory data according to the compression scheme into the received memory data.
