  • Voltage waveform transient identification and autonomous load coordination
    Patent number: 12107421
    Abstract: Described are systems and techniques for extracting frequency and voltage harmonic transients corresponding to individual load events. Such systems and techniques can be used to make electrical loads aware of the operation of other loads in an electric grid. Thus, awareness is achieved using information derived only from a utility voltage waveform at a load. Also described are systems and techniques for incorporating such awareness into load controllers which allows loads to autonomously meet system level objectives in addition to their individual requirements.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 14, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 1, 2024
    Assignee: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
    Inventors: Steven B. Leeb, John K. Nowocin, Peter Lindahl, Spencer Shabshab
