The present invention refers to a method and a device, based on backscatter communication, to allow transmitting apparatuses to know the energy 10 state of receiving apparatuses, the energy state being communicated by the receiving apparatuses without any energy consumption.
An architecture (10) on a standard FPGA platform is described, for the emulation of a non-volatile intermittent processing system comprising three auxiliary blocks: an intermittent power supply emulator block (11) which reproduces the trends of a typical irregular power supply coming from environmental energy conversion systems; a non-volatile logic emulation block (21) which realizes the persistence of information in the non-volatile registers in the event of a power failure in the architect...
A transient pressure event detection system and method for a pipeline network are disclosed. The system includes a data repository encoding route data on the pipeline network, a data receiver configured to receive timestamped pipeline sensor data from each of a plurality of sensors that are spaced apart in the pipeline network, use the sensor data received to identify a transient pressure event occurrence and the timestamp for the event occurrence's arrival time, determine routes in the pipel...
Apparato per la produzione di fotoni dove ogni fotone è caratterizzato da due gradi di libertá in correlazione quantistica. Esso consiste in una sorgente di fotoni e in uno stadio di generazione della correlazione quantistica tra due stati selezionati di singolo fotone. L'apparato puó essere a componenti discrete o realizzato parzialmente o in toto in un circuito ottico integrato.
