    Abstract: Rather than using a large number of transceivers (transmitter/receiver pairs) operating in parallel, Access Points with multiple channels are used to aggregate, or stack, transmitted response communications, e.g., transmitting multiple acknowledgements (ACKs) in a single packet to one or more sources of received packets. The method includes sending on a plurality of channels, by each of a plurality of respective first nodes, a communication to a second node, receiving on the plurality of channels, by the second node, the communication from each of the plurality of first nodes and sending, by the second node, a transmission that contains a response to each communication that was successfully received from each of the plurality of first nodes. The response to each of the plurality of first nodes is part of a single message sent by the second node.

    Abstract translation: 不是使用大量并行运行的收发器(发送器/接收器对),而是使用具有多个通道的接入点来聚合或堆叠传输的响应通信,例如,将单个数据包中的多个确认(ACK)传输到一个或 更多的接收数据包来源。 该方法包括通过多个相应的第一节点中的每一个向多个信道发送到第二节点的通信,由第二节点在多个信道上接收来自多个第一节点中的每一个的通信,以及 由所述第二节点发送包含对从所述多个第一节点中的每一个成功接收的每个通信的响应的传输。 对多个第一节点中的每一个的响应是由第二节点发送的单个消息的一部分。

    Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and targeting power outages are provided. Electric meters of a system receive electric power from power distribution equipment in a power distribution network and information that identifies the respective power distribution equipment from which the meters receive electric power. Communication nodes are associated with electric meters and receive, from neighboring communication nodes, information identifying each respective neighboring communication node and the information identifying the power distribution equipment from which respective electric meters, associated with neighboring communication nodes, receive electric power. A communication node of a particular electric meter can select a suitable communication node of a neighboring electric meter with which it can communicate. When the particular electric meter experiences a loss in power, it can then transmit an immediate regarding the loss in power to the selected communication node.
