Inventor: ALPERT ORTAL
IPC: H02J50/40
Filed: 2020-01-17
Abstract: A system for ensuring the integrity of the enclosure of a wireless power transmitter. The enclosure of the transmitter comprises a window in order to allow a high-power beam to exit the transmitter. The window is equipped with an area which reflects at least a portion of the beam, and directs the reflected beam onto a detector. Thus the system can ascertain whether the window is undamaged, since if the detector is receiving a satisfactory portion of the beam, then it is indicative of an undamaged window. This advantageously prevents dangerous beam generated damage which may be caused if the exit window of the transmitter is damaged. The laser beam is preferably circularly polarized before exiting the transmitter to prevent dangerous laser damage caused by the reflections of the maximum of the P or S polarization components, which may occur with linearly polarized beams.

Abstract: This application provides an isolation and recovery method and a network device for a case that one or more physical layer apparatuses PHYs in a flexible Ethernet group FlexE group are faulty. The method includes: If a network device determines that a first overhead block corresponding to each current available PHY is stored in a corresponding memory, the network device determines that a FlexE group meets a PHY alignment condition, and starts to simultaneously read cached data from all memories. Therefore, there is no need to insert local fault LF code blocks to all clients clients, and there is no need to recreate a group. This effectively reduces impact of a faulty PHY on a client service carried by a normal PHY. In addition, a memory read delaying mechanism is set to effectively absorb a delay change caused by the faulty PHY, and a PHY alignment operation does not need to be performed again, thereby implementing lossless fault recovery of the PHY.
