| 20120111944 | ADAPTIVE DATA READER AND METHOD OF OPERATING - Systems and methods for data reading are disclosed wherein one or more images of an item bearing an optical code are captured and the captured images are analyzed to determine whether the item has a reflective surface or not. Based on such a determination, operating parameters of the system, such as one or more of: the amount of time dedicated to 1D code decoding and the amount of time dedicated to 2D code decoding, the order in which 1D code and 2D code decoding are performed, termination of a decoding operation, restarting an image capture and decoding operation, and image preprocessing may be automatically adjusted by the system to decode an optical code. | 05-10-2012 |

| 20100001863 | OPERATION MONITORING AND ENHANCED HOST COMMUNICATIONS IN SYSTEMS EMPLOYING ELECTRONIC ARTICLE SURVEILLANCE AND RFID TAGS - A system and method for monitoring operation and performance of electronic tags such as article surveillance (EAS) tags or radio frequency identification (RFID) tags such as by monitoring and reporting electronic tag readability and operator/system performance levels. The system includes an optical symbol reader and/or electronic tag sensor/deactivator that measures and reports values of reading, detection, or deactivation events during operation which may be indicative of electronic tag operability. The apparatus may further comprise a data accumulation device including memory storage to accumulate the measurement values for each set of electronic tags, and a programmed computing system to analyze the measured values and report on the results of the analysis. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20110320294 | ACTIVE BUDGET CONTROL - A system and method that assists a customer with budgeting includes receiving, at a processor, customer input indicating the customer's desire to create one or more budgeting accounts each defined to correspond with one or more items included in a customer spending budget. The method also includes receiving, at a processor, customer input regarding one or more rules corresponding to the one or more budgeting accounts. The rules, in various embodiments, include one or more funding rules configured to provide parameters for dictating credits for one or more budgeting accounts and/or one or more withdrawal rules configured to provide parameters for dictating debits for one or more budgeting accounts. The method also includes creating, using a processor, one or more budgeting accounts based at least in part on the received customer input. In some embodiments, a processing device applies the rules during a transaction and updates the one or more budgeting accounts. | 12-29-2011 |

| 20090045680 | EXTENDED COLD (BATTERY BACKUP) REFRIGERATOR - A refrigerator includes a refrigerator cabinet, a refrigerator compartment disposed within the refrigerator cabinet, a freezer compartment disposed within the refrigerator cabinet, and a battery. There is at least one fan disposed within the refrigerator cabinet and electrically connected to the battery. The battery powers the at least one fan during a power outage to thereby circulate air from the freezer compartment to the refrigerator compartment. The at least one fan may be a direct current operated fan. The refrigerator may also include an inverter and the at least one fan may then be an alternating current operated fan electrically connected to the inverter. The battery may be disposed within the refrigerator cabinet or may be external to the refrigerator cabinet. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090064702 | REFRIGERATOR WITH PLUG-IN POWER SUPPLY - A plug-in power supply for a refrigerator used to charge portable electronic devices includes an auxiliary power supply mounted in an auxiliary power supply compartment, and a removable module, having an electrical connector, mounted in an electrical connector cup. A portable electronic device is charged by placing the device in the connector cup and coupling the device to the electrical connector. Power is then supplied from the auxiliary power supply to the portable electronic device. | 03-12-2009 |

| 20100197241 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR LOW-COMPLEXITY CHANNEL ESTIMATOR IN OFDM / OFDMA SYSTEMS - The present disclosure proposes a method for channel estimation with excellent accuracy for a large variety of channel conditions and with low computational complexity. The method represents a specific combination of a plurality of linear channel estimation schemes. A resulting hybrid channel estimator may retain the low complexity of the constituent estimators while performing same or better than each of the constituent estimators. The proposed simplified hybrid estimator may provide very close error rate performance to the optimal Wiener estimator over a wide range of channel scenarios. | 08-05-2010 |
