  • METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A SWARM OF UNMANNED AUTONOMOUS ENTITIES FOR GEOLOCATION OF A SOURCE
    Publication number: 20230089475
    Abstract: A method that pertains to location of an emitter source is provided. The method can use game theory and an estimation method. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured to store a program that implements the method is provided. A system comprising a swarm of autonomous entities and a control unit that can implement the method is provided.

  • Element-centric communication map
    Patent number: 9974008
    Abstract: Various embodiments are described that relate to a visualization. A visualization can be produced that relates to a coverage area for an element in the network. A user of this element can read the visualization and make decisions in view of the coverage area. In one instance, the user can read the visualization and select a route of travel such that a likelihood of coverage being lost during travel is relatively small.

  • Electrical cable arcing fault detection by monitoring power spectrum in distribution line
    Patent number: 5359293
    Abstract: A system for detecting arcing faults in DC electrical cable power distribution circuits, typically in telecommunications networks, monitors the power spectrum of distribution lines over a frequency band of about 4 Hz to 5 KHz in which current surges characteristic of arcing line faults have been found to occur. The system compares power levels in this detection band with a threshold level typical of normal communications traffic and registers an alarm condition when an excess indicative of arcing is detected.

  • Power cable arcing fault detection system
    Patent number: 5047724
    Abstract: A system for detecting an arcing fault in a telephone central office DC power distribution conductor repeatedly measures the current flow in the distribution line, as with an inductive coupling, and derives a Fourier transform analysis spectrum from such measurements. The power values at intervals across the frequency spectrum are compared with recorded threshold template values encompassing the spectrum typical of an arcing event and an alarm condition is established when such threshold levels are exceeded.
