  • Patent number: 11614384
    Abstract: An enclosure or housing for an air monitoring instrument package for mounting on the roof or other surface on the outside of vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, trams, trains and ships. By measuring air pollutants from moving vehicles, it is possible to explore the distribution of air pollutants throughout a city or rural area for the identification of sources of different pollutants, estimating human exposures to air pollutants, and mapping air pollutants with high resolution. The disclosed device provides continuous sampling of outside air while simultaneously protecting the delicate instruments from weather elements such as high wind, rain, snow, sleet and hail. The design also allows a nearly constant flow rate of sampled air independent of vehicle velocity. An optional impaction region further reduces transmission of mist and large particles to the chamber containing the measurement package.

  • Patent number: 11469714
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an envelope tracking system that uses a single-bit digital signal to encode an analog envelope tracking control signal, or envelope tracking signal for brevity. In certain embodiments, the envelope tracking system can estimate or measure the amplitude of the baseband signal. The envelope tracking system can further estimate the amplitude of the envelope of the RF signal. The system can convert the amplitude of the envelope signal to a single-bit digital signal, typically at a higher, oversample rate. The single-bit digital signal can be transmitted in, for example, a low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) format, from a transceiver to an envelope tracker. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC or A/D) can convert the single-bit digital signal back to an analog envelope signal. Moreover, a driver can increase the power of the A/D output envelope signal to produce an envelope-tracking supply voltage for a power amplifier.

  • Patent number: 11422015
    Abstract: An arrangement of acoustic transducers for a flow meter. The flow meter is for measuring the rate at which fluid is flowing. The arrangement includes a respective transducer set for each edge of a notional regular polygon. The transducer sets are associated with a tubular cavity for carrying the fluid. Each of the transducer sets respectively includes two acoustic transducers oriented to define an acoustic path lying in a measurement plane of the respective set, and another two acoustic transducers oriented to define another acoustic path lying in the measurement plane of the respective set. The transducers sets are positioned so that, in a cross-section normal to the tubular cavity, the measurement plane of each respective transducer set is coincident with a respective edge of the notional regular polygon.

  • Patent number: 11374827
    Abstract: A network configuration development environment is disclosed. In particular, an editor configured to interface with multiple network devices simultaneously, to view and adjust their device configuration settings, is provided. The network configuration development environment allows a system administrator to manage configuration definitions (e.g., run-time or start-up device configuration parameters) relative to a plurality of network devices simultaneously to achieve correctness and appropriate consistency for each of those devices in a network infrastructure. The network development environment may include an ability to apply changes directly to one or more network devices or to apply changes to stored “configuration files” that are associated with individual devices.

  • Patent number: 11082293
    Abstract: A network configuration change validation environment is disclosed. In particular, this disclosure is related to an interface to initiate automated test actions (e.g., network monitoring commands, application monitoring commands, etc.) and to view results in an efficient manner to support a network communication infrastructure. In one example, results of a set of commands executed prior to a configuration change may serve as a baseline and one or more results of the same set of commands may be intelligently compared to the baseline to identify any potential issues that have arisen. For example, as a result of a specific network configuration change or application update. The disclosed network change validation command initiator and validation report viewer represent part of an overall network configuration change validation environment that includes automated techniques such that it may be used within a given change window.

  • Publication number: 20210119484
    Abstract: A system and method for wirelessly transmitting power through a window comprising transmitting and receiving coils or electrodes, which are embedded in or otherwise mounted with respect to flexible polymer suction cups. The transmitting and receiving coils or electrodes are arranged opposite one another on the interior and exterior of the window, respectively, via attachment of the suction cups thereon. Power provided to the transmitting coil or electrode, for example from an auxiliary power adapter of a vehicle, may be transmitted through the window by inductive coupling or capacitive coupling. The power provided to the receiving coil or electrode can then be used to power external devices such as taxi roof signs, lighted advertising signs, spotlights and other auxiliary off-road lights, trailer tail lights, emergency and warning lights, speakers, cameras, battery chargers, and packages of scientific instruments for measuring air pollutants and various environmental factors such as weather parameters.
