%N a(n) is the number of binary (0,1) sequences of length n that have at least two ones in each window of eight consecutive symbols.
%C Application: Not all electronic devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) have batteries or are connected to the power cable. These self-contained devices must rely on the harvesting of energy of the signals sent by a transmitter. A minimal number of 1's in transmitted sequences is required so as to carry sufficient energy within a prescribed time span. A binary sequence is said to obey the sliding-window (ell,t)-constraint if the number of 1's within any window of ell consecutive bits of that sequence is at least t, t<ell.
