Publication number: 20240265386Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to update sub-ledgers of a capacity plan based on exchange types. One system includes a communication network interface, a memory, and one or more processors. The memory to store a ledger to broadcast exchanges associated with the capacity plan, the ledger comprising sub-ledgers and priority values for the sub-ledgers. Each exchange of the ledger is broadcasted within a sub-ledger of the sub-ledgers and has a stored association with a type of exchange and an exchange value. The one or more processors receive a request to update the capacity plan. The one or more processors allocate a portion of a value to one or more sub-ledgers according to the priority values of the sub-ledgers. The one or more processors update the exchange values of the exchanges broadcasted in the sub-ledger with the portion of the value based on the types of exchange.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2023Publication date: August 8, 2024Inventors: Rhett M. Roberts, Clement Ronzon, Jacob Heaps

Publication number: 20240249351Abstract: Capacity plans may be linked in a nested hierarchy, with customizable linking configurations controlling how the capacity plans are linked. The linking configurations may control how an available credit of a flexible capacity plan is affected by linked capacity plans lower in the nested hierarchy. Payments may be applied to the linked capacity plans based on customizable payment configurations.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2023Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: Rhett M. Roberts, Jacob Heaps, Cooper Smith

Publication number: 20240249352Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media to handle abatement of an aspect for exchanges of a capacity plan. One system includes a communication network interface, a memory, and one or more processors. The communication network interface to interface with a communication network. The memory to store a plurality of containers of the capacity plan, each container corresponding to one or more exchanges of a plurality of exchanges of the capacity plan, and an abatement data structure to store abatement information for the plurality of exchanges of the capacity plan. The one or more processors generate abatement information for one or more exchanges corresponding to a given container, the abatement information indicating a current state of each exchange based on an abated aspect of the exchange, and update the abatement data structure to include the abatement information for the one or more exchanges corresponding to the given container.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2023Publication date: July 25, 2024Inventors: Rhett M. Roberts, Jacob Heaps, Clément Jean Marie Ronzon

Patent number: 11578238Abstract: Materials and methods for mitigating passive intermodulation. A membrane for reducing passive intermodulation includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a continuous metal layer encapsulated between the first and second polymeric layers. A self-adhesive radio frequency barrier tape includes a waterproof polymeric top layer, a metal-containing layer adhered by an adhesive layer to the polymeric top layer, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the metal-containing layer, and a release liner on a bottom surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer. A method of mitigating passive intermodulation includes passing a probe over an area of interest, the probe being sensitive to an intermodulation frequency of interest, and identifying a suspected source of passive intermodulation when the amplitude of the probe output exceeds a threshold at the frequency of interest.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2021Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Johns ManvilleInventors: Thomas Bell, Christopher Griffin, Jacob Heaps, Joel Hazy
