Amazing that the first paper from 1990 no less, could be relevant to Rossi/DGT/Ni-H with only a few changes and updates.
Bass was already thinking about control issues and poor reliability back then. In retrospect - the solutions are just short of obvious and generic. Alain recently posted to vortex an updated version: in which Rossi is said to use MPC - Model Predicting Control - a classic, yet modern method, adapted to complex, and eventually non linear systems. Apparently working with Siemens now, as NI has moved to DGT. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_predictive_control Not only that - this document from Bass probably puts much of this tech, relative to control issues, into the public domain. We should have little doubt that within the last year, patent trolls have tried to cover it, including Bill Gates' mega-trollers. Too bad for them. From: Jed Rothwell Robert Bass recently sent me several papers. I uploaded 6. There are a few others pending. See: http://lenr-canr.org/wordpress/?page_id=1097 - Jed
