20140337002 | Method and Instrumentation for Sustainable Energy Load Flow Management System (SelfMaster(TM)) - Disclosed is a method and instrumentation for predictive and adaptive controllers devised to ensure uninterrupted operation of standalone electrical supply systems powered by sustainable energy sources. The device hereby referred to as SelfMasterâ„¢ is an expert system that manages the energy conversion, storage, and consumption in an isolated electric grid based on data collected during past and current operation of the system and predicted future states of the primary energy sources, storage level, and demand. The sustainable primary energy sources managed by SelfMasterâ„¢ may include, but not limited to, wind force, solar radiation, and biofuels. The energy storage system is a combination of batteries, hydrogen, biofuel, and hot water tanks. Electric demand consists of critical, non-critical, and deferrable loads identified according to the activities supported by the supply system. | 11-13-2014 |

20090297152 | WDM PON PROTECTION SCHEME USING A DUAL PORT ARRAYED WAVEGUIDE GRATING (AWG) - A Wavelength Division Multiplexed Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) includes an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) including a first Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG) MUX/DEMUX, and a remote node including a second AWG MUX/DEMUX. Each AWG MUX/DEMUX has at least two input ports for receiving a respective wavelength division multiplexed optical signal, and a plurality of output ports. Each output port of the Optical Line Terminal AWG MUX/DEMUX is coupled to a respective transceiver of the OLT. Each output port of the remote node AWG MUX/DEMUX is coupled to a respective PON having at least one optical network terminal (ONT). Respective first and second optical paths are coupled between corresponding input ports of the first and second AWG MUX/DEMUXs. Means are provided for sourcing seed light of the WDM-PON into a selected one the first and second optical paths. | 12-03-2009 |
20100021164 | WDM PON RF/VIDEO BROADCAST OVERLAY - A system for overlaying an analog broadcast channel in a Wavelength Division Multiplexed Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON). A remote node of the WDM PON includes a MUX/DEMUX for demultiplexing a Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) signal and supplying respective wavelength channels to each one of a plurality of channel fibers; an optical power splitter for supplying the analog broadcast channel to each one of a plurality of distribution paths; and a respective optocoupler connected to each distribution path, each opticoupler coupling the analog broadcast channel into one of the channel fibers. The analog broadcast channel has a wavelength that is outside a wavelength band of the WDM signal. An Optical Network Terminal (ONT), which is connected to one of the channel fibers, includes a triplexer for separating the analog broadcast channel from at least a downlink wavelength channel of the WDM-PON. | 01-28-2010 |

20080291448 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FINDING A SUBSTRATE NOTCH CENTER - Methods and apparatus are provided for locating a notch and/or a center of the notch of a substrate. An exemplary method includes rotating a substrate; illuminating an edge of the substrate with a light beam as the substrate rotates; detecting a change in light intensity of the light beam as the substrate rotates; determining a rough location of a notch in the edge of the substrate based on a position of the substrate when the change in light intensity of the light beam is detected; and reversing a rotational direction of the substrate to determine a fine location of the notch in the edge of the substrate. Numerous other aspects are provided. | 11-27-2008 |
20110079245 | ROLLER ASSEMBLY FOR A BRUSH CLEANING DEVICE IN A CLEANING MODULE - Embodiments described herein relate to an apparatus and method for a roller assembly that may be utilized in a brush cleaning module. In one embodiment, a roller assembly is described. The roller assembly includes an annular groove having at least two substantially parallel opposing sidewalls adapted to contact the major surfaces of a substrate along a periphery of the substrate, each of the opposing sidewalls comprising a compressible material having a pre-compressed dimension that is less than a thickness of the periphery of the substrate. | 04-07-2011 |
