A system for controlling a charging of an electric vehicle, wherein a charging at one electric vehicle charging station affect a charging at another electric vehicle charging station is disclosed. The system includes: an electric power grid, a first electric vehicle charging station connected to the electric power grid, and a second electric vehicle charging station connected to the electric power grid, wherein the first electric vehicle charging station facilitates a charge transfer for an electric vehicle at the second electric vehicle charging station using a mobile device. The mobile device relays communication from the electric vehicle charging stations to the cloud server. The charge transfer request received at the cloud server is authorized using identification information and credit account information received from the mobile device. The charge transfer at the first electric vehicle charging station is adjusted based on a charging level at the second electric vehicle charging station.

A method for relaying messages via a half-duplex relay for a telecommunications system with M sources, L relays and a destination, where M>1, L1, according to an orthogonal multiple access scheme of the transmission channel between the L relays and the destination. The method includes: decoding, via a relay, M messages each being associated with a frame and coming from a source among the M sources with detection of errors on the messages; transmitting from the relay to the destination a signal representative of a least one portion of a set of the messages for which no errors have been detected by the relay conditional on authorization from the destination, transmitting from the relay to the destination of a monitoring signal indicating a set of messages for which no errors have been detected by this relay, this transmission of the monitoring signal occurring before the transmission of the representative signal.

A method and system implements a repeater in a link of a communication medium. The method and system enables a counter to count alternations of a clock signal received from a host or device over the link, compares a value of the counter to a reference count, adjusts a frequency selection based on the comparison of the value of the counter to the reference count, and locks the frequency selection in response to the counter matching the reference count.
