  • Patent number: 11160089
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for assessing and mitigating radio frequency interference (RFI) in a network comprising a plurality of wireless devices. During an RFI assessment phase the process includes receiving an attacker signal to operate as an attacker device and then responding to the attacker signal by transmitting a transmitted interference test packet (ITPkt) to one or more other wireless devices of the plurality of wireless devices. The transmitted ITPkt comprises ITPkt parameters includes a network identifier of the device, a transmission globally unique identifier, and a time of transmission for a transmitted interference test pattern (ITPat). The process additionally includes transmitting the transmitted ITPat at the time of transmission for the transmitted ITPat.

  • Publication number: 20180181876
    Abstract: Various implementations provide an aquatic conditions optimization management system accesses aquatic sensor data generated by one or more aquatic sensors, identifies a collection of aquatic data that includes data generated by and collected from the aquatic sensor(s), generates a set of cross-correlation matrices based on the collection of aquatic data, executes a set of unsupervised machine learning algorithms using the set of cross-correlation matrices, and determines one or more optimum conditions for one or more aquatic resources based on the executed set of unsupervised machine learning algorithms. The optimum condition(s) may be communicated to one or more individuals and may include one or more corrective actions to improve one or more of the aquatic resources.

  • Patent number: 9819258
    Abstract: Systems and methods for latch-up detection and mitigation. One aspect includes a method implemented in a system divided into a plurality of power blocks, where each power block is powered by a corresponding power rail and includes a voltage droop monitoring circuitry. The method comprises receiving frequency information from the plurality of voltage droop monitoring circuitries; normalizing the received frequency information from each of the plurality of voltage droop monitoring circuitries; creating a matrix of cross-correlation values based on the normalized frequency information between each pair of the plurality of power blocks; determining deviations in the cross-correlation values indicating an occurrence of voltage droop; determining an abnormal variation based on the determined deviations to identify a first power block, out of the plurality of power blocks, experiencing a latch-up event; and resetting power to the first power block without interrupting power to rest of the plurality of power blocks.
