  • Branch circuit determination without external synchronization
    Patent number: 9009503
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for relating a data processing system with a power branch circuit are provided in the illustrative embodiments. Each signal in a set of signals is combined with a power signal to form a set of combination signals, the power signal including a first power usage by the data processing system and a second power usage by a modulating signal. An amplitude of a corresponding signal in each combined signal in the set of combined signals is determined over a period. Using a discriminating logic, a determination is made whether the modulating signal is present in the power signal. Responsive to the discriminating logic producing an affirmative result, the data processing system is related with the power branch circuit.

  • Branch circuit determination with synchronous correlation
    Patent number: 8850240
    Abstract: A method for relating a data processing system with a power branch circuit is provided in the illustrative embodiments. A second signal is combined with a power signal to form a combination signal, the power signal including a first power usage by the data processing system and a second power usage by a modulating signal. The second signal is synchronized with the modulating signal in the power signal. A determination is made whether an amplitude of a frequency of the second signal is increasing in the combined signal over a period. Responsive to the determining being affirmative, the data processing system is related with the power branch circuit.

  • BRANCH CIRCUIT DETERMINATION WITH SYNCHRONOUS CORRELATION
    Publication number: 20130054999
    Abstract: A method for relating a data processing system with a power branch circuit is provided in the illustrative embodiments. A second signal is combined with a power signal to form a combination signal, the power signal including a first power usage by the data processing system and a second power usage by a modulating signal. The second signal is synchronized with the modulating signal in the power signal. A determination is made whether an amplitude of a frequency of the second signal is increasing in the combined signal over a period. Responsive to the determining being affirmative, the data processing system is related with the power branch circuit.
