Formulizing time-series sensor data to facilitate compact storage and eliminate personally identifiable information
The disclosed embodiments relate to a system that compactly stores time-series sensor signals. During operation, the system receives original time-series signals comprising sequences of observations obtained from sensors in a monitored system. Next, the system formulizes the original time-series sensor signals to produce a set of equations, which can be used to generate synthetic time-series signals having the same correlation structure and the same stochastic properties as the original time-series signals. Finally, the system stores the formulized time-series sensor signals in place of the original time-series sensor signals.
Method and system for providing a waveform dataset and signal generation device
The present invention relates to a generation of a signal by executing a waveform dataset comprising waveform descriptive parameters. The execution of the waveform description parameters is limited by target device information specifying one or more specific target devices and time information specifying an execution period of the waveform descriptive parameters. By providing a waveform dataset comprising not only the waveform descriptive parameters, but also further information, in particular time information for limiting the execution period of the waveform descriptive parameters, the generation of the respective waveform signal is controlled.
PHASE FREQUENCY DETECTOR-BASED HIGH-PRECISION FEEDBACK FREQUENCY MEASUREMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD
A phase frequency detector-based high-precision feedback frequency measurement apparatus and method: a Field Programmable Gate Array (FGPA) roughly measures a frequency fx of a measured time-frequency pulse by an equal-precision frequency measurement method; a Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) automatically synthesizes a frequency fx’ according to the fx roughly measured by the FPGA; the fx and the fx’ are sent to a phase frequency detector for performing phase frequency detection and then sent to the FPGA after passing through a charge pump, a low-pass filter circuit, and an (Analogue-to-Digital) A/D converter; the FPGA processes a frequency difference obtained by the phase frequency detector and then transmits the processed frequency difference to the DDS to form a negative feedback frequency measurement system so that the DDS continuously adjusts the fx’ according to a frequency difference measurement result until the output of the DDS is stable. Therefore, precise measurement of the time-frequency pulse to be measured is realized.

High voltage, high efficiency sine wave generator that prevents spikes during amplitude adjustments and switching of channels
This application describes a variety of approaches for generating high voltage sinusoidal signals whose output voltage can be adjusted rapidly, without introducing high-frequency artifacts on the output. When these approaches are used, stronger electric fields can be applied to the tumor for a higher percentage of time, which can increase the efficacy of TTFields therapy. In some embodiments, this is accomplished by preventing adjustments to a DC power source during times when the output of that DC power source is powering the output signal. In some embodiments, this is accomplished by synchronizing the operation of an AC voltage generator and an electronic switch that is connected to the output of the AC voltage generator.
