Rocker oscillator time bases

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi

Since the invention of the pendulum clock by Christiaan Huygens in 1657, precision timekeepers have been regulated by oscillators. Although the pendulum is not an isochronous oscillator, its introduction as a time basis for clock regulation led to a signif ...

Time-Synchronization Attack Detection in Unbalanced Three-Phase Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

Phasor measurement units (PMU) rely on an accurate time-synchronization to phase-align the phasors and timestamp the voltage and current phasor measurements. Among the symmetrical components computed from the phasors in three-phase systems, the standard pr ...

TDOA Source-Localization Technique Robust to Time-Synchronization Attacks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

In this paper, we focus on the localization of a passive source from time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurements. TDOA values are computed with respect to pairs of fixed sensors that are required to be accurately time-synchronized. This constitutes a we ...

Time-Synchronization Attacks against Critical Infrastructures and their Mitigation

Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

This work focuses on the security of critical infrastructures against time-synchronization attacks (TSA). A TSA can impact any network that relies on the dynamic analysis of data, by altering the time synchronization between its nodes. Such attacked networ ...

Shaking force balancing of a 2-DOF isotropic horological oscillator

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans

Despite centuries of research and significant advances, the escapement mechanism used to count and maintain oscillations of mechanical time bases remains a complex mechanism and a major source of energy losses. We showed in previous work that, instead of t ...

On Time Synchronization Issues in Time-Sensitive Networks with Regulators and Nonideal Clocks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ludovic Bernard Gérard Thomas

Flow reshaping is used in time-sensitive networks (as in the context of IEEE TSN and IETF Detnet) in order to reduce burstiness inside the network and to support the computation of guaranteed latency bounds. This is performed using per-flow regulators (suc ...

Remote Sensing meets Deep Learning: Exploiting Spatio-Temporal-Spectral Satellite Images for Early Wildfire Detection

Thành Tâm Nguyên

Wildfires are getting more severe and destructive. Due to their fast-spreading nature, wildfires are often detected when already beyond control and consequently cause billion-scale effects in a very short time. Governments are looking for remote sensing me ...

Feasibility of Time Synchronization Attacks against PMU-based State-Estimation

Mario Paolone, Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Sergio Barreto Andrade, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

The emerging measurement technology of phasor measurement units (PMUs) makes it possible to estimate the state of electrical grids in real-time, thus opening the way to new protection and control applications. PMUs rely on precise time synchronization, the ...

Online Gait Transitions and Disturbance Recovery for Legged Robots via the Feasible Impulse Set

Auke Ijspeert

Gaits in legged robots are often hand tuned and time based, either explicitly or through an internal clock, for instance, in the form of central pattern generators. This strategy requires trial and error to identify leg timings, which may not be suitable i ...

Inverse Gating for Low Energy Block Ciphers

Subhadeep Banik, Francesco Regazzoni

In this paper we explore the technique of “inverse gating” which is a significant improvement over the ”round gating” technique introduced in HOST 2016. Round gating worked by generating timing signals to separate glitch propagation from one circuit elemen ...
