| 20080252441 | Method and apparatus for performing a real-time root-cause analysis by analyzing degrading telemetry signals - One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that performs a real-time root-cause-analysis for a degradation event associated with a component under test. During operation, the system monitors a telemetry signal collected from the component, and while doing so, attempts to detect an anomaly in the telemetry signal. If an anomaly is detected in the telemetry signal, the system performs a failure analysis on the telemetry signal in real-time while the telemetry signal is degrading. Next, the system identifies a failure mechanism for the component based on the failure analysis. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090167520 | COMMUNICATION NETWORK FAILURE DETECTION SYSTEM, AND COMMUNICATION NETWORK FAILURE DETECTION METHOD AND FAILURE DETECTION PROGRAM - The system for detecting a failure on a communication network according to an objective basis by analyzing an alarm log output by a management server of the communication network and evaluating a degree of abnormality of the communication network tracing back to a more significant factor causing the alarm, calculates an occurrence intensity of the more significant factor | 07-02-2009 |
| 20100102951 | Sharing of a Neighboring Wireless Network - A security system can detect if a first network is compromised and automatically access a second network to communicate an alert to a monitor. The second network could be a wireless network of a neighbor. An incentive could be provided to the neighbor to allow the security system to access the neighbor's network and communicate an alert to at least one monitor. The monitor could include an emergency responder, a security monitoring service, and a cellular telephone of an entity of the security system. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20110169629 | Detection Apparatus - Embodiments of the present invention relate to a range reduction detection apparatus that is able to detect blocking of its field of view. Detection of an event, due to movement or intrusion within the field of view, is arranged to start a timer, which will time-out thereby providing an indication of such blocking unless a subsequent event is detected within the time-period. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20140266674 | DETECTING DESTRUCTION OF AN AUTOMATION SYSTEM COMPONENT - A control panel is used to monitor events within a security system or other automation system. In the event an intruder enters a physical location, the intruder may attempt to damage the control panel to disrupt its operation. One or more sensors of the control panel may detect disruption in the operation of the control panel. Example sensors may detect an impact force, sudden acceleration, removal from a mounted location, or disruption of communication with an input/output element, such as a display device. When an event is detected at the control panel itself, the control panel can send a signal to a remote service provider, and the remote service provider can follow-up with the customer. The control panel and/or remote service provider may also determine when the control panel loses partial or complete power loss to identify the disruption as a potential crash-and-smash entry. | 09-18-2014 |
| 20150091721 | SIGNAL LEVEL MONITORING SYSTEM THAT MINIMIZES FALSE ALARMS - A system for monitoring signal level of a signal in a communications network, comprising a monitor that includes (i) a receiver to receive the signal from the network, (ii) a detector for detecting signal level values of the signal, and (iii) a sensor for sensing temperatures at the monitoring point in association with the signal level values. The system further comprises (i) means for evaluating the signal level values relative to an alarm reference, (ii) means for issuing alarms based on an alarm criterion defined in terms of the signal level values and the alarm reference, (iii) means for deriving an empirical relationship between signal level and temperature from the signal level values and temperatures, and (iv) means for adjusting the alarm criterion in accordance with the empirical relationship, such that temperature-dependent variations of signal level are substantially accounted for in issuing alarms. | 04-02-2015 |
| 20160019778 | INTEGRATED SECURITY SYSTEM WITH PARALLEL PROCESSING ARCHITECTURE - An integrated security system that includes a security coprocessor coupled to a conventional security system panel and an interactive security system. The integrated security system enables conventional security system features as well as the consumer-oriented interactive features and functions of an interactive security system without sacrificing reliability or the significant burden and cost associated with frequent software updates associated with conventional security systems. The integrated security system also minimizes or eliminates the need for new battery backup circuitry or larger batteries. | 01-21-2016 |
| 20160189533 | PREMISES MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH PREVENTION MEASURES - A system is provided including a plurality of inter-connected premises management devices, each including one or more sensors that generate data about an environment, and a control device to control one or more operations of the premises management system, the control device including a movement detector. The premises management system detects an attempt by an intruder to damage the control device based on data from the movement detector indicating an abnormal movement applied to the control device, historical data obtained from the sensors, and current data obtained from the sensors. | 06-30-2016 |
