20230122110 · 2023-04-20 ·

The presentation of sensor network information can be provided to a user via a customized dashboard web interface. The dashboard web interface can be based on customized transformation and alert functions that can be applied to one or more sensor channels of data produced from sensors at a monitored location. The customized alerts can provide real-time monitoring of targeted conditions at the monitored location.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTION AND ALERT OF ENERGY RESOURCE OUTAGES

A system for alert of energy resource outages includes: a resource monitor, disposed within radio range of resource meters that each transmit corresponding radio signals indicative of corresponding meter identifiers and current readings, configured to: determine whether the corresponding radio signals are fixed frequency or frequency hopping by scanning frequency channels for a time period and counting hits of desired meter identifiers; decode each of the one or more of the corresponding radio signals of the resource meters according to determined protocol to obtain one or more of the corresponding meter identifiers and current readings; and transmit the one or more of the corresponding meter identifiers and current readings; and a server, configured to: receive the one or more of the corresponding meter identifiers and current readings; employ the corresponding meter identifiers and current readings to detect an outage; and transmit an alert that corresponds to the outage.

METHODS AND INTERNET OF THINGS SYSTEMS FOR GAS USAGE SAFETY WARNING BASED ON SMART GASES

The present disclosure provides a method and an Internet of Things system for gas usage safety warning based on a smart gas, the method is performed by a smart gas safety management platform of an Internet of Things system for gas usage safety warning based on a smart gas, comprising: based on gas usage data, determining a gas monitoring object from at least one gas device; determining initial objects based on the gas monitoring object and a gas usage threshold; determining a target object based on historical gas data of the initial objects; and sending gas usage safety warning information to a gas user corresponding to the target object.

Water meter with water management capabilities
11629977 · 2023-04-18 · ·

A water utility meter configured for dynamic throttling and arranged to register and manage the amount of water delivered to a consumption site from a distribution network is disclosed. The water utility meter comprises a flow sensor for measuring a flow rate through the water utility meter, a valve for limiting the flow rate from the distribution network to the consumption site, an actuator for changing a valve position so that the valve may be in an open position or a closed position or a variable throttling position and a controller unit arranged to control the actuator. The controller unit is further configured to monitor the flow rate using the flow sensor, to verify if the flow rate exceeds a maximum flow rate limit or does not exceed a minimum flow rate limit and if the limits are exceeded adjust the valve position to change the maximum flowrate.

Telemetry data correlation for device-level assurance in wireless networks

In one example embodiment, a server obtains a first indication of a first identifier associated with a user equipment in a wireless network, and first telemetry data associated with the first indication. The server obtains, from a network entity including a base station entity serving wireless communication in the wireless network, a second indication of the first identifier and second telemetry data associated with the second indication. The server determines that the first indication and the second indication match. In response to determining that the first indication and the second indication match, the server correlates the first telemetry data and the second telemetry data.

COMMUNICATION ENABLED CIRCUIT BREAKERS

Communication enabled circuit breakers are described. Methods associated with such communication enabled circuit breakers are also described. The communication enabled circuit breakers may include one or more current sensors. The one or more current sensors may be disposed in a clip. The clip may be coupled to a line side phase connection, and the clip may be shielded to attenuate signals.

METHOD FOR RECONNECTING A SMART ELECTRICITY METER AND SMART ELECTRICITY METER IMPLEMENTING SAID METHOD

A method for connecting a smart electricity meter connected to a data concentrator, referred to as the current data concentrator, in a powerline or radio-frequency communication network for the automated management of metering in the context of an electrical distribution service is described. The smart electricity meter disconnects from the current data concentrator in the case where the latter is posing a problem. It next attaches itself to a neighbouring data concentrator different from the current data concentrator. It then listens to the frames containing an identifier of said current data concentrator. Finally, it disconnects from the neighbouring data concentrator and attaches itself to a data concentrator using the same identifier as the current data concentrator when at least N frames containing the identifier of the current data concentrator are received, with N an integer greater than or equal to 1.
