IEEE Power Electronics Magazine - March 2023 - 77

In the upcoming column, I will go
over what is known as patent prosecution-the
process through which
an inventor, or more commonly a patent
professional (patent agent or
attorney) representing the inventor,
drafts and files an application and
then negotiates with the USPTO/
examiner in pursuit of a patent. In
later columns, I will unpack several
of the provisions of the law that I
introduced above.

Enable real-time simulation of detailed
controls while protecting manufacturer IP
The RTDS® Simulator is the world standard
for real-time power system simulation and
hardware-in-the-loop testing of control and
protection equipment.
The new GTSOC allows for inclusion of OEM
controls in the real-time simulation, facilitating
detailed control modelling without requiring
physical hardware to be present - and without
compromising the vendor's intellectual property.
