Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involves receiving an input message, generating a first random value that is used to blind the input message to prevent a side-channel analysis (SCA) attack, computing a second random value using the first random value and a factor used to compute the Montgomery form of a blinded input message without performing an explicit Montgomery conversion of the input message, and computing a signature using Montgomery multiplication, of the first random value and the second random value, wherein the signature is resistant to the SCA attack.

Abstract: HVAC load can be shifted to change indoor temperature. A time series change in HVAC load data is used as input modified scenario values that represent an HVAC load shape. The HVAC load shape is selected to meet desired energy savings goals, such as reducing or flattening peak energy consumption load to reduce demand charges, moving HVAC consumption to take advantage of lower utility rates, or moving HVAC consumption to match PV production. Time series change in indoor temperature data can be calculated using only inputs of time series change in the time series HVAC load data combined with thermal mass, thermal conductivity, and HVAC efficiency. The approach is applicable for both winter and summer and can be applied when the building has an on-site renewable power system.

The second conductor layer has a first center position and is spaced apart from the first conductor layer at a first interval. The four electrically connected sections respectively extend from different side edges of the second conductor layer toward the first center position, so that the second conductor layer forms four mutually connected radiating conductor plates.

The four feeding conductor lines and the four supporting conductor structures form an interleaved annular arrangement. The four feeding conductor lines excite the second conductor layer to generate at least four resonant modes. The at least four resonant modes cover at least one identical first communication band.
