Abstract: Systems and methods for scatter correction of computed tomography images for x-ray inspection are provided. In an embodiment, a plurality of scatter images of an object (208) are corrected using partial scatter-free images acquired using an aperture plate (212). The aperture plate (212) is positioned between the object (208) and a radiation detector (206) and includes apertures (48) in a grid. The original x-rays pass through the apertures (48) and scattered x-rays are blocked by the aperture plate (212). The aperture plate (212) can be moved to different positions (211, 213, 214, 215), allowing partial scatter-free images to be acquired at each position (211, 213, 214, 215) of the aperture plate (212). A full scatter-free image can be generated by combining partial scatter-free images. The scatter and partial scatter-free images are used to train a scatter correction model.

Abstract: Positioning assistance data (PAD) is encoded in positioning System Information Blocks (posSIBs) and periodically broadcast by a base station in a differential manner. A PAD element that is different relative to previously broadcast PAD is encoded in a block of posSIB separately from PAD that is unchanged. Another separate block of posSIB includes reference encoding identifying the changed PAD and provides scheduling information. A UE may decode the reference encoding and determine whether the UE has previously decoded the changed PAD. If the UE has previously received the PAD, but has not yet received the new or changed PAD, the UE may receive and decode the block of posSIB with only the changed PAD, thereby increasing efficiency.
