He has made significant contributions to the field of meter data management systems, particularly in the context of electrical outage management. With a total of 2 patents, Kardos has demonstrated a commitment to leveraging technology for improved utility management.
Latest Patents
Kardos's latest patents focus on meter data management systems, methods, and software with outage management capabilities. The inventors recognized a need to utilize data from Advanced Metering Systems (AMIs) to enhance the management of electrical outages. To address this need, they developed systems, methods, and software that intelligently filter and communicate AMI outage data to Outage Management Systems (OMSs). This innovation facilitates communication between OMSs and various types of AMI systems. One exemplary system includes an outage management module that receives AMI outage data in the form of 'last gasp' messages from meters. It determines whether the OMS is already aware of a power outage associated with those meters. If the OMS is already aware of an outage, the module excludes those reports from its communications, thereby preserving its capacity to handle new outage information and overcoming a significant obstacle to using AMI data within OMSs.
