    Abstract: A method is provided that comprises tuning a radio system to a frequency band that contains a locally-broadcast terrestrial radio signal. The locally-broadcast terrestrial radio signal comprising a main signal component and a side data component is thereby received. In response to receiving the locally-broadcast terrestrial radio signal a determination is made as to a permissible time for processing the side data component using a time slot schedule. The side data component is processed at the permissible time. A message corresponding to the side data component is outputted to an output device. In some instances, the side data component includes the message. In other instances, the method further includes searching a message lookup list using a code included in the side data component. When a stored code is found that matches the code, the message corresponding to the matching stored code is outputted.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a message outputting device, an FM radio receiver, where the FM radio receiver is configured to obtain utility operator data provided by an FM subcarrier channel, and a processor in electrical communication with the FM radio receiver and the message outputting device is provided. The processor is configured to process the utility operator data and communicate a message in the utility operator data via the message outputting device. In some instances, the apparatus further comprises an input interface in electrical communication with the processor for receiving instructions from a user on whether to alter usage of the apparatus after the message in the utility operator data has been displayed via the message outputting device.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for securing a communication network are provided. Transmitting a first signal including encoding a first timestamp, a first identifier, and a message authentication component. Obtaining a message signal comprising one or more service variables associated and an encrypted unique identifier. Authenticating the encrypted unique identifier based on a comparison of the encrypted unique identifier against a plurality of stored unique identifiers in a lookup table. Generating a second signal comprising an encoding of a subset of the service variables, the encrypted unique identifier, and a second timestamp. Transmitting the second signal to each remote receiver in a subset of the plurality of remote receivers.

    Abstract: Disclosed are smart adapters and methods for regulating system based at least in part on utility information. An adapter generally includes a receiver and a controller. The receiver is configured to receive one or more datacasts each containing utility information. The controller is configured to control a signal at a terminal of the system based at least in part on utility information. Once the adapter is plugged in, it starts reacting to real time validated information, and provides automatic communication and operations. The smart adapters and methods are easy and simple to install and have backwards/forward compatibility with a variety of existing systems.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing energy management utilize wireless wide-area network broadcast signals and a decentralized receiver architecture to allow customers to make informed choices with regard to energy consumption and load shedding for particular appliances. A receiver assembly embedded within an appliance receives a broadcast signal, e.g., an FM subcarrier signal, including tariff data and other electrical grid data. A processor coupled with the receiver controls the appliance in accordance with the received data and in accordance with user-defined preferences. In some embodiments, a transceiver assembly is embedded in one or more appliances in a household. Each transceiver is configured to receive broadcast signals regarding grid data, and to communicate with other appliances and/or a usage meter over a wireless personal area network. Meter data from one or more households may be aggregated and uplinked back to the energy provider or other entities.
