US Patent:

7127524, Oct 24, 2006

Filed:

Dec 21, 2001

Appl. No.:

10/027010

Inventors:

Gregory L Renda - Saratoga CA, US
Archibald L Cobbs - San Carlos CA, US
Van Jacobson - Woodside CA, US

Assignee:

Vernier Networks, Inc. - Mountain View CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709245, 709249, 709223

Abstract:

A system and method controls access to a network. The system and method intercepts communications received from, and responses and other communications to, devices on the network. Communications may be forwarded to their intended destination if the sending device has sufficient privileges to do so, or the communications may be handled by the system and method or forwarded to a different destination (e. g. a printer nearby the access point to which the user is communicating) using network address translation or redirection. Responses are received and stored by the system and method and may be forwarded to the device that sent the original communication, either directly or via a different device that requests the stored communications using a tunnel.

Appl. No.:

11/488353

Inventors:

Gregory Lee Renda - Saratoga CA, US

Assignee:

Tesla Motors, Inc. - San Carlos CA

International Classification:

H02J 7/00

US Classification:

320119, 320116, 320118

Abstract:

A methodology for balancing batteries for use in an electric vehicle. The methodology includes initializing a target balance voltage value to a predetermined voltage. Sampling a first voltage of the batteries at a predetermined interval. Sending the lowest voltage value to all of the batteries. Replacing the target value voltage with the lowest voltage if the lowest voltage is lower than the target balance voltage and bleeding the batteries if a sampled voltage is higher than the target balance voltage.
