Abstract: Automatically communicating information related to a user computing device from a central computing system to a transaction computing system prior to initiation of a transaction between the user computing device and the transaction computing system comprises a digital wallet application and a central computing system. A digital wallet application receives a beacon signal from a transaction computing system indicating the specific identification of the terminal with which the user intends to conduct a transaction. The user computing device communicates the terminal identification to the central computing system. The central computing system communicates customer data, such as loyalty information and offers, to the transaction computing system associated with the terminal. The transaction computing system communicates the customer data to the terminal. When the user taps the user computing device to initiate the transaction, the terminal provides any benefits associated with the customer data.

Abstract: System, methods, and computer readable mediums are provided for generating a targeted communication. A mobile device transmits identification information to a contactless reading unit, embodied in one example as a merchant point-of-sale system. The contactless reading unit transmits the received identification information to a merchant system. The merchant system updates a profile corresponding to the identification information based on the received identification information. The merchant system determines a type of targeted communication for transmission based on the profile, and generates the targeted communication based on the determination.

Abstract: This disclosure presents a controller for use with a HVAC system that has a program stored therein that is configured to relate a torque of a fan motor of a HVAC system with an airflow rate of the HVAC system, such that a selected airflow rate will cause the fan motor to operate at a torque that will produced the selected airflow rate.

Abstract: Circuitry and method for receiving and decoding a data stream without a preamble transmitted from the transmitting device. The invention includes circuitry in the receiver or interrogation unit for generating a simulated preamble signal that is provided to the input of an averaging circuit and a comparator. The averaging circuitry then averages the simulated preamble signal and the actual received data signal to avoid loss of messages and information data at the front end of the received signal from a transponder.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for accurately decoding a Manchester data stream having transition time distortion and noise spikes. Briefly, in an embodiment using a protocol where a falling edge at the mid-point of a bit represents a “1” bit and a rising edge at the mid-point represents a “0” bit, the coded data can be accurately determined by comparing the time period tp1 from the start of the bit to the first falling edge and the time period tp2 from the last rising edge to the end point of the bit. If tp1 is less than tp2, the bit represents a bit value of “0” and if tp2 is less than tp1, the bit represents a bit value of “1”.
