A node within a wireless mesh network is configured to record a zero crossing of alternating current or alternating voltage drawn by a single-phase power consumer and a precise timestamp when the zero crossing occurred, thereby generating timestamped zero crossing data. The node receives similar zero crossing data from a neighboring node. The node then compares the timestamped zero crossing data with the received zero crossing data to determine whether the phase associated with the node is equivalent to, leads, or lags the phase associated with the neighboring node. The node then acquires a positive phase identification associated with the neighboring node. Based on the phase identification, and based on the phase difference between the two nodes, the node infers the phase associated with the single-phase power consumer. That phase indicates the specific power line within a three-phase power distribution network to which the single-phase power consumer is coupled.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium for configuring a network edge device for communicating between an operational asset and a backend network that include the actions of establishing communication with a backend network through a first network connection. Establishing communication with a user computing device through a second, different network connection. Receiving an asset template that identifies communication protocols of the backend network and communication protocols of an operational asset to which the network edge device is coupled. Sending registration data to the backend network to register the network edge device and the operational asset with the backend network in response to receiving an instruction from the user computing device.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for detection of a failed communication link and rerouting network traffic around the failure. One embodiment of a system consistent with the present disclosure may comprise a communication subsystem in communication with the data network and configured to transmit information to a recipient. The system may also include a confirmatory signal subsystem configured to generate a confirmatory signal. The confirmatory signal may be inserted into a stream of data to be transmitted to the recipient through a first communication path. Upon detection of a disruption in the confirmatory signal, a failover subsystem configured to reroute the stream of network data to be transmitted to the recipient through a second communication path. The second communication path may comprise one or more physical connections in the network that are distinct from the first communication path.

In one embodiment, a device in a network reserves first and second sets of local resources for an anomaly detection mechanism. The device reports the first set of local resources to a supervisory node in the network. The device applies one or more anomaly detection rules from the supervisory node using the first set of reserved resources. The device receives one or more anomaly detection rules from a peer node in the network. The device applies the one or more anomaly detection rules from the peer node using the second set of reserved resources.

System(s) and method(s) for network resource optimization in a service area of a communication network are described. The method includes dividing a service area into a plurality of sub-areas, where each of the plurality of sub-areas is serviced by at least one network resource from a pre-determined number of network resources. The method further includes determining a locally optimal deployment solution comprising at least one local allocation attribute for the at least one network resource in each of the plurality of sub-areas, to meet a plurality of objectives for network resource optimization. The method further includes obtaining a globally optimal deployment solution comprising at least one global allocation attribute for allocation of the pre-determined number of network resources in the service area, based on the locally optimal deployment solution to meet the plurality of objectives.

An ONU receiving an optical signal from an OLT including PON controllers includes: an optical receiver to convert, into an electric signal, an optical signal having a single optical wavelength set out of plural optical wavelengths; and a control frame extractor to extract and hold wavelength correspondence information indicating correspondence between MAC addresses of the PON controllers received from the OLT and the optical wavelengths. The control frame extractor, when receiving a wavelength switching request, extracts the optical wavelength after wavelength switching instructed in the wavelength switching request, obtains a setting address of the MAC address of the PON controller to which the ONU itself should be connected after the wavelength switching based on the extracted optical wavelength after the wavelength switching and the wavelength correspondence information, and determines whether a malfunction occurs based on a transmission source MAC address stored in a received control frame and the setting address.
