  • Publication number: 20230037051
    Abstract: A system can control access to encrypted data shared by a group of users by the use of a vault key that is associated with a group of users. The encrypted data can include encrypted secret data generated from the secret data using a secret key, an encrypted secret key can be generated from the secret key by the use of a vault key, and an encrypted vault key generated from the vault key by the use of a public key associated with a user of the group of users. The system can allow users to store and access the encrypted data only if the user is a current member of the group. The system can verify the user's membership status from a group manager, such as a system managing a channel or chat session.

  • Patent number: 11570857
    Abstract: A defrosting system includes an RF signal source, two electrodes proximate to a cavity within which a load to be defrosted is positioned, a transmission path between the RF signal source and the electrodes, and an impedance matching network electrically coupled along the transmission path between the output of the RF signal source and the electrodes. The system also includes power detection circuitry coupled to the transmission path and configured to detect reflected signal power along the transmission path. A system controller is configured to modify, based on the reflected signal power, values of variable capacitors of the impedance matching network to reduce the reflected signal power. The impedance matching network may be a single-ended network or a double-ended network.
