Patent number: 9568392Abstract: A computerized method for monitoring a water utility network, the water utility network comprising a network of pipes for delivering water to consumers and a plurality of meters positioned within the pipes across the water distribution network. The method includes receiving meter data representing parameters measured by the meters, such as flow, pressure, chlorine level, pH and turbidity of the water being distributed through the pipes. The method also includes receiving secondary data from sources external to the meters and representing conditions affecting consumption of water in a region serviced by the water utility network such as weather and holidays. The meter and secondary data is analyzed using statistical techniques to identify water network events including leakage events and other events regarding quantity and quality of water flowing through the pipes and operation of the water network. The events are reported to users via a user interface.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2011Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: TaKaDu Ltd.Inventors: Amir Peleg, Amitai Armon, Uri Barkay, Haggai Scolnicov, Shai Gutner

Patent number: 7769090Abstract: A novel apparatus for and method of estimating the cable length of an active network link. The cable diagnostics mechanism of the invention is particularly suited for use in estimating the length of Ethernet network between two edges when the link is active, i.e. data is being transmitted in both directions simultaneously and the transmission of test pulses is not possible. The cable length estimation mechanism of the present invention is based on a well-known property of the spectrum of the insertion loss of the cable, namely, the linear relationship between the attenuation of the cable at a given frequency in decibels and the cable length. Information characterizing this relationship is extracted and used to determine the length of the cable.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2007Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Amir Peleg, Daniel Wajcer, Itay Lusky, Naftali Sommer, Nohik Semel

Patent number: 7761633Abstract: An addressable SPI bus and an associated communication protocol. The addressable SPI bus comprises a plurality of slaves each exhibiting a particular address and a shift register whose output is connected to a common MISO bus by a buffer exhibiting a three state output, also known as a tri-state output. The master asserts a single SS line, which is connected in parallel to each of the plurality of slaves, indicating the beginning of a frame, and transmits via the MOSI bus the address of a particular slave of the plurality of slaves, denoted interchangeably the target or destination slave. Responsive to the received address, the target slave enables the three state output associated therewith thus transmitting the output of the target slave shift register to the master via the MISO bus.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2008Date of Patent: July 20, 2010Assignee: Microsemi Corp. - Analog Mixed Signal Group Ltd.Inventors: Yaki Devila, Alon Ferentz, Roni Blaut, Amir Peleg

Patent number: 7738567Abstract: A novel and useful baseline wander correction mechanism for use with transformer coupled baseband communication receivers. Parametric estimation of the transformer model is used estimate and cancel the baseline wander effect. A parametric model is used to model the baseline wander impairment created by the transmitter and receiver transformers as a high pass filter having an exponential decay parameter alpha. A correction signal for both the far end and echo signal paths are calculated and summed to generate a total correction signal. The total correction signal is partitioned into an analog correction signal that is applied to the analog portion of the communications receiver and into a digital correction signal that is similarly applied to the analog portion of the communications receiver.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2006Date of Patent: June 15, 2010Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Mor Miller, Ariel Yagil, Itay Lusky, Liran Brecher, Amir Peleg, Naftali Sommer

Patent number: 7281141Abstract: A method for preventing an excess voltage from appearing at an output of a power over Ethernet controller, the method comprising: sensing that a powered device has been disconnected from a port; enabling a bypass path around a means for unidirectional current flow operatively connected to the port; and disconnecting power to the port responsive to the sensed disconnect, whereby the bypass path enables a discharge path for an output capacitor present across the port. The invention also provides for a circuit having a bypass path around a means for unidirectional current flow, the bypass path being enabled by a control circuit to prevent an excess voltage from appearing at a sensing input of the control circuit. In an exemplary embodiment the bypass path is enabled approximately simultaneously with disconnecting power from the output port.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2005Date of Patent: October 9, 2007Assignee: PowersDsine, Ltd.-Microsemi CorporationInventors: Shimon Elkayam, Amir Peleg, Nadav Barnea, Dror Korcharz
