  • Publication number: 20230286386
    Abstract: A propulsion system includes a first portion and a second portion that are independently controlled from one another. The first portion includes a first inverter and a first electric motor. The second portion includes a second inverter, a second electric motor, and a second disconnect link. A control system is configured to detect a fault in the first portion, the second portion, or combinations thereof, and determine a response to the fault. In one example, on detection of the fault in the second portion, the second disconnect link is disengaged to reduce electromagnetic drag torque by the second electric motor.

  • Patent number: 8688784
    Abstract: A configurator is provided that connects with various disparate elements in a telecommunication system. The configurator is adapted to receive a traffic plan that has a plurality of different aspects that are implemented across the disparate elements. The configurator is adapted to generate processing schemas and/or databases that can be used by the disparate elements in order to implement the traffic plan.

  • Publication number: 20120036559
    Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for security management of an electronic device or subscriber are provided. In one aspect, the system includes a profile server and an inspection point server that are both connectable to a mobile electronic device. The mobile electronic device is configured to send contextual data such as location data or information pertaining to the identity of the subscriber from the device and into a network attached to the mobile electronic device. The profile server is configured to authorize (or deny authorization) the release of contextual data such as location data or information pertaining to the identity of the subscriber. The inspection point server is configured to intercept the contextual data such as location data or information pertaining to the identity of the subscriber being sent from the device and query the profile server to determine if the request was authorized.

  • Publication number: 20110269421
    Abstract: A system and method for dynamic provisioning is provided. In an embodiment, a provisioning engine receives data representing a device profile, a device state and a network state, and to the extent that the device profile, device state and network state are not consistent, the engine can dynamically re-provision the device to achieve an alternative provisioning.

  • Publication number: 20050143328
    Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure The present invention discloses both a compound and a method for treating and preventing the spread of envelope virus infections by using organic molecules, including 2-deoxystreptamine aminoglycoside molecules and their derivatives, to inhibit viral protein translation and viral invasion of cells. Those organic molecules, which are able to bind to RNA and inhibit translation of envelope virus proteins, can be incorporated into a compound comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and administered in a physiologically appropriate manner to individuals exposed to or infected with envelope viruses. This invention includes, but is not limited to, the treatment of DNA-containing envelope virus infections, such as herpes simplex-1, and amelioration and prevention of the symptoms of such infections, such as herpes-related cold sores.

  • Publication number: 20050040832
    Abstract: A Moisture and Density Detector (MDD) provides a method and apparatus to determine the moisture content and/or density, as well as presence and location of anomalies, and/or wood type of any dielectric material for various purposes. This device is very useful in detecting the moisture content of wood and wood-based materials, such as that of lumber in a dry kiln prior to, during and/or following drying. The MDD passes a radio frequency signal and/or any other signal between opposed or adjacent capacitance electrodes and measures the signal strength and phase shift of the signal. The addition of phase shift and multiple frequencies improves the accuracy of the results.

  • Patent number: 6784672
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting areas of differential density in logs, cants, timbers, poles or trees comprises applying a signal to one or more pairs of electrodes and measuring the magnitude and phase shift of the voltage, current or impedance at an output electrode. Electrodes may be arranged in a circumferential or opposed configuration depending on scanned product shape, and may be stationary or move freely but are preferably in direct contact with wood surface. Wire brush electrodes are used in some embodiments. Measurements are taken in both directions between an electrode pair. Multiple frequencies may be employed. Different electrode sizes may be used for different measurements.
