  • Publication number: 20240168239
    Abstract: An economic and reliable fiber hermetic sealing for small devices includes partially stripped optical fibers optically aligned, fixed at one end aligned with an optical source, and a cylindrical solder glass with one or multiple through holes which diameters are greater than those of the stripped fibers. A glass solder preform is contained in a ferrule structure which diameter is bigger than that of said solder glass outer diameter. The ferrule wall around the solder glass is lower than said solder glass height. The solder glass preform sits on a stepped hole with 25-75 degrees chamfered. The glass solder melts at high temperatures and flow into small hole section where the fiber is hermetically sealed and retained. An epoxy with a good adhesion to fiber coating and fiber glass is filled in the cavity blocked by molten solder glass.

  • Patent number: 11979506
    Abstract: In a method for statistical analysis of aggregate encrypted data with key-leakage resilience for smart grids, every user area is managed by a fog node which plays the role of data aggregation gateway and data relay. All the users' electricity consumption data sent by smart meters in the same user area are firstly aggregated by the fog node to generate a fog-level aggregate ciphertext. Then the fog node further generates a digital signature for the fog-level aggregate ciphertext and sends these data to a cloud server for long-time storage. The cloud server stores all the aggregate ciphertexts and digital signatures received from different user areas in its database, and provides data query and statistical analysis services for the control center of smart grids. On the premise of without violating users' privacy, the cloud server could provide enough information for the control center, enabling it to compute the sum, arithmetic mean and variance of all users' data in specified areas in a privacy-preserving way.

  • Publication number: 20240120011
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for determining offsets for memory read operations are described. In response to a threshold quantity of pages failing initial reads but being successfully read using a same reference adjustment during re-reads, the offset responsible for the adjustment may be used as a first-applied offset for subsequent re-reads or a baseline offset for subsequent initial reads. After the initial reads begin using the reference adjustment, if a threshold quantity of pages fail initial reads, the offset used for the initial read may be adjusted to be the offset used to perform the successful re-reads. If an updated offset to use a baseline is not identified, the baseline offset may be cleared so the original reference may again be used without adjustment for initial reads.
