Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling electric power supplied to one or more electrical devices from a power source are disclosed. Measurements of the supplied electricity are detected. Estimated deviant voltage levels that the supplied electricity will not drop below or exceed as a result of varying electrical consumption by the one or more electrical devices is computed based on a predetermined confidence level and the detected measurements. A voltage level output of the electricity supplied to the electrical device is adjusted based on the computed deviant voltage level.

22. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a controller, measurements of electricity supplied to an electrical device via a voltage regulator; identifying, by the controller, a confidence level for a probability distribution indicative of a characteristic of the electricity supplied to the electrical device; determining, by the controller, a deviant voltage level based on electrical consumption by the electrical device, the measurements, and the confidence level; and adjusting a voltage level supplied to the electrical device based on the determination of the deviant voltage level. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

33. A system comprising:
-
a voltage signal processing circuit configured to receive measurements of electricity supplied to an electrical device via a voltage regulator; an adjustment decision processing circuit configured to identify a confidence level for a probability distribution indicative of a characteristic of the electricity supplied to the electrical device, and determine a deviant voltage level based on electrical consumption by the electrical device, the measurements, and the confidence level; and a controller configured to adjust a voltage level supplied to the electrical device based on the determination of the deviant voltage level. - View Dependent Claims (34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)
