Patent number: 10892838Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure may provide devices or systems configured to receive indications of geographic areas, each corresponding to distribution networks, and determine whether the distribution networks overlap. The processor(s) may also be configured to receive parameter value(s) obtained by a device within one distribution network at a location within an overlapping area, and cause device(s) within another distribution network to modify operation based on the parameter value(s). In another aspect, the present disclosure may provide devices that include a voltage sensor to measure a voltage of a power distribution network at a power consumption location that corresponds to the device. The device may be configured to provide at least one cable service to the power consumption location via a cable television (CATV) distribution network and output an indication the measured voltage value.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2018Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignees: Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC, The Regents of the University of Colorado, a body corporateInventors: Robert Fraser Cruickshank, III, Bri-Mathias Scott Hodge, Anthony Reed Florita
