First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a filter configured to;
receive modulated electricity having at least two different alternating current frequencies over an electrical line, the at least two different alternating current frequencies including a first alternating current frequency and a second alternating current frequency, andattenuate the second alternating current frequency of the modulated electricity to obtain filtered modulated electricity that is predominantly of the first alternating current frequency;
a computing device powered by the filtered modulated electricity.

Abstract
This document relates to management of computing devices using modulated electricity. One example includes assigning a set of time slices to a computing device for drawing electricity and subsequently causing the computing device to adjust consumption of the electricity by assigning a different set of time slices to the computing device.
