Abstract:
Devices state changes in a building may be determined using a combination of power monitoring and network monitoring. Power monitoring may be performed by obtaining a power monitoring signal and processing the power monitoring signal with models to determine information about state changes of one or more devices in the building. Network monitoring may be performed by receiving information about network packets transmitted by a device in the building and processing the information about the network packets to determine information about a different device or a state change of a different device in the building. For some devices and some implementations, information about state changes of a device may be determined by using both power monitoring and network monitoring.

Claim (Index 1):
A computer-implemented method for determining states of devices in a building, the method comprising:\n obtaining a power monitoring signal by measuring an electrical property of a power line in the building, wherein the power line provides power to the devices in the building, the devices in the building comprising a first device, a second device, and a third device; determining a state of the first device by (1) processing a first power event in the power monitoring signal with a plurality of power models to generate a score for each power model of the plurality of power models, and (2) selecting the state of the first device from a plurality of possible states for the first device using the scores; receiving a first network packet, wherein the first network packet was transmitted by the second device; determining, using information in the first network packet, that the first network packet was sent by the second device; and selecting, using the information in the first network packet, a state of the third device from a plurality of possible states for the third device.
