Publication number: 20230198665Abstract: An aspect of the invention is directed to a method of communicating data over a network, comprising: generating, by a first node, a frame addressed to a second node; encoding, by the first node, the generated frame by applying forward error correction (FEC) coding on the generated frame in such manner that blocks or removes a predetermined set of forbidden symbols (FS) from the encoded frame; and transmitting, by the first node, the encoded frame to the second node. A second aspect of the invention is directed to a method for communicating data over a mixing segment of an Ethernet network by using node A and node B communicatively connected to the mixing segment.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2023Publication date: June 22, 2023Applicant: KONE CORPORATIONInventors: Gergely HUSZAK, George ZIMMERMAN

Publication number: 20230029130Abstract: According to an aspect, there is provided a method for determining a sequence of bus nodes in a multi-drop communication bus. The method includes for each bus node: sending a request to the bus node using an bus node physical identifier to set the bus node to a loopback mode; transmitting at least one signal to the bus node via the multi-drop communication bus; receiving from the bus node a loopback signal caused by the at least one signal; and measuring a roundtrip delay between the at least one signal and the loopback response signal. The method further includes solving the physical order of the bus nodes in the multi-drop communication bus based on the roundtrip delays.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2022Publication date: January 26, 2023Applicant: KONE CorporationInventors: Gergely Huszak, Ari Kattainen, Mikko Vaskela

Publication number: 20170362055Abstract: In modern elevators, safety circuits are used for preventing the operation of an elevator having possibly safety related problems. Sometimes the problem is in the safety circuit itself, and the operation could be continued. In a disclosed arrangement, groups of at least two independent safety circuits are used. The operation of the elevator can be continued in the case where one safety circuit in each group indicates that there is a possible problem. Thus, one deficient safety switch in one safety circuit does not prevent the operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2017Publication date: December 21, 2017Applicant: Kone CorporationInventors: Ari KATTAINEN, Juha-Matti AITAMURTO, Claus INGMAN, Ferenc STAENGLER, Gergely HUSZAK, Tuomas NYLUND
