Abstract: Selon l'invention, une feuille de recouvrement flexible (12C) est pressée pour venir en prise de façon sélective avec une feuille de base (12B) afin de définir une série d'unités de stockage séquentielles (10X; 10Y; 10Z) pourvues d'un joint frangible (14F) (sans hachures) et d'un joint de destruction (14D) (hachures doubles). Une chambre à médicament scellée (16M) est située à proximité du joint de destruction à l'intérieur de chaque unité de stockage. Une région d'accès à la chambre (16R) est située à proximité du joint frangible à l'intérieur de chaque unité de stockage. Une bulle pouvant être rompue (16B) est placée à l'intérieur de chaque région d'accès à la chambre et gonfle sous l'effet d'une pression en direction du joint frangible de l'unité de stockage (voir fig. 1A et 1B). L'expansion sépare les feuilles opposées. Une patte détachable flexible (14C) est formée par la feuille de recouvrement flexible le long du joint frangible rompu lorsque la bulle est rompue. Cette patte est détachée de la couche de base par l'utilisateur, ce qui sépare le joint de la chambre de façon à ouvrir la chambre à médicament.

Abstract: A biosensor has an underfill detection system that determines whether a sample of a biological fluid is large enough for an analysis of one or more analytes. The underfill detection system applies an excitation signal to the sample, which generates an output signal in response to the excitation signal. The underfill detection system switches the amplitude of the excitation signal. The transition of the excitation signal to a different amplitude changes the output signal when the sample is not large enough for an accurate and/or precise analysis. The underfill detection system measures and compares the output signal with one or more underfill thresholds to determine whether an underfill condition exists.

Abstract: A targeted advertising system uses a machine learning tool to select an asset for a current user of a user equipment device, for example, to select an ad for delivery to a current user of a digital set top box in a cable network. The machine learning tool first operates in a learning mode to receive user inputs and develop evidence that can characterize multiple users of the user equipment device audience. In a working mode, the machine learning tool processes current user inputs to match a current user to one of the identified users of that user equipment device audience (Fig 8, Bl 1202). Fuzzy logic may be used to improve development of the user characterizations, as well as matching of the current user to those developed characterizations. In this manner, targeting of assets can be implemented not only based on characteristics of a household but based on a current user within that household (Fig 8, Bl 1214).

Abstract: The invention concerns a current sensor (22; 24; 26) for substantially in real time measuring electric current in a conductor. It is suitable for application in an indicator system (1) such as a short circuit indicator system for measuring instantaneous i.e. live current value, power, reactive power, phase angle, polarity, short circuits, in single or averaged values. It comprises current responsive means comprising a current transformer (2210), adapted for mounting adjacent to said electric conductor; and sensor circuitry (2220) comprising means for emitting a non-electrical wave signal as an output; said sensor circuitry (2220) comprises current level converter circuitry (2222) comprising a current-to-frequency converter adapted to provide said non-electrical wave signal as a current level indication pulse signal (CS1) having a pulse frequency (Pfcs) which is proportional to said real time electric conductor current, when the latter is within a predetermined current interval (I1 - I2). Thus, a low cost sensor is provided. The invention further relates to an indicator system (1) for an electric conductor. It comprises at least one of the above mentioned current sensors (22; 24; 26); a communication link (32; 34; 36) for relaying at least said non-electrical wave signal from said current sensor; voltage measurement means (40; 2240) for performing a voltage measurement over said electric conductor; a detection unit (5) operable for sensing at least the frequency of at least a current pulse signal and translating it to a current corresponding to the frequency of said current pulse signal; current threshold means operable for determining whether the current corresponding to the frequency of said current pulse signal (CS) is above a predetermined current threshold (lmax); and voltage threshold means operable for determining whether the voltage measured by said voltage measurement means (40; 2240) is below a predetermined voltage threshold (Vmin) after a predetermined time period (ti) after said current threshold means has made a positive determination; and current state display means (532; 534; 536) operable for indicating currents states that has occurred on said electric conductor, e.g. when said voltage threshold means has made a positive determination. Thus, a rapid and reliable current state indicator system is provided, which may be adapted for use for electric conductors in both LV, MV and HV power lines.

Title: Method and apparatus for establishing security associations between nodes of an ad hoc wireless network
Inventor: EMEOTT STEPHEN P
IPC: H04W12/04
Filed: 2007-08-23
Granted: 2013-10-01
Abstract: A method and apparatus for establishing security associations between nodes of an ad hoc wireless network includes two authentication steps: an initial first contact step (authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)-based authentication), and a "light-weight" step that reuses key material generated during first contact. A mesh authenticator within the network provides two roles. The first role is to implement an 802.1X port access entity (PAE), derive transient keys used for encryption with a supplicant mesh point via a four-way handshake and take care of back end communications with a key distributor. The second role is as a key distributor that implements a AAA-client and derives keys used to authenticate a mesh point during first contact or fast security association. The key distributor and the on-line authentication server can communicate to one another without these messages being transported over mesh links.

Granted: 2013-01-08
Abstract: The invention provides a storage system for storing large amounts of energy. The storage system compensates for fluctuations in power consumption in an electrical power supply grid, and it may be useful e.g. in combination with various sources of renewable energy. The system comprises a reservoir, a load, and an energy conversion structure. The load provides a bias-force on the reservoir and thereby biases the reservoir towards a configuration with a smaller volume. When surplus electrical power is available, a turbine or similar energy conversion structure can work against the load by pumping water into the reservoir. At a later point in time, the conversion structure may regenerate electrical power based on flow energy when the fluid is released from the reservoir under pressure from the bias-force from the load.
