International Classification:

H04Q 722

US Classification:

455427, 455 121, 370319

Abstract:

Communications network architectures integrate communications using a geosynchronous satellite communications system including a geosynchronous communications satellite operating in the fixed satellite service (FSS) band and a low earth orbit satellite communications system including a plurality of low earth orbit communications satellites. A low earth orbit gateway having a terminal is used to communicate with the low earth orbit communications satellites using multiple access communication channels, and is used to communicate with a public switch telephone network. A geosynchronous gateway having a terminal is used to communicate with the geosynchronous communications satellite by overlaying multiple access communication channels onto fixed channel assignments and transmitting the overlayed channel assignments. The terminal in the geosynchronous gateway is also used to communicate with the public switch telephone network. A fixed terminal having a handset is used to selectively communicate with the low earth orbit communications satellite using the multiple access communication channels, and with the geosynchronous communications satellite by extracting the multiple access communication channels from the fixed channel assignments.

International Classification:

H04Q 7/00

US Classification:

455445, 455413, 4554262, 455561

Abstract:

A system and a method for connecting a call through a telecommunications network. A base station, connected to a public switched telephone network, includes a call processor, a memory and a transceiver. The memory includes a database containing dialing instructions for a wireless station for a telephone connection through the public switched telephone network to a destination station. The transceiver receives a call request from the wireless station, and the call processor in response to the call request, accesses the database and dials a call for connection through the public switched telephone network to the destination station based on the dialing instructions for the wireless station.

International Classification:

H04N007/16

US Classification:

725/095000

Abstract:

A system and method for providing quality of service and transponder utilization billing for use with a data broadcasting system. The data broadcast system includes a plurality of receivers coupled to a plurality of channel encoders, a multiplexer for multiplexing encoded channels, and a transmitter for transmitting the channels. A video system controller is coupled to the multiplexer and channel encoders. A content access management system schedules, tracks, and reports customer content, and a transponder management system outputs billing reports. In accordance with the present invention, the multiplexer generates statistical feedback to the encoders to control encoding quantization rates to achieve optimum channelized video throughput. The video system controller generates quality parametrics comprising average channel quantization rates that are indicative of the quality of each channel of the data broadcasting system. A quality of service and transponder utilization billing system generates schedule and utilization data for each channel of the data broadcasting system, matches average channel quantization rates are to preassigned class bins that represent pre-agreed quality of service levels for respective customers, periodically aligns the class bins to a customer's product schedule, and generates product and class utilization summary. The transponder management system processes the product and class utilization summary to track transponder usage and match each customer to a rate identifier table to periodically render an integrated customer bill reflecting quality of service delivered with content over time.

Inventors:

Robert Jerome Schroeder - Maryland Heights MO, US

International Classification:

B25B 13/02

US Classification:

81119

Abstract:

The Installer head notches carry a standard two or four winged nut. The control shaft has a pull ring in the very top and holes for a handle to be inserted as needed. The controller is pinned in support ring diameter, inverted up the cavity centered and cemented into the lower body diameter.Place the wing nut in body head notches and drop the pull line through the holder shank. Hook and pull ring to pull the controller out the holder top. When the controller is pulled out the holder top the wing nut will be positioned to align with the shank threads. Insert the handle to prevent a all back into the cabinet. Lift handle turn the top holder clock wise by hand until wing nut is snug. Use the handle to turn the shaft counter clock wise for the final torque.

Appl. No.:

6/278354

Inventors:

Charles W. Boettcher - Chester NJ
Robert E. Schroeder - Flanders NJ

International Classification:

H02M 7537

US Classification:

363134

Abstract:

A turn-off loss reduction network is applied to the power transistors of a double-ended inverter circuit to reduce power dissipation therein. A switched resonance discharge circuit is utilized to discharge the storage capacitor of the turn-off loss reduction network. Dissipation during discharge is eliminated by including an energy recovery circuit in the discharge network which is operative to return the energy to the input voltage source of the inverter. The gate discharge circuit includes a gated resonant discharge path with an inductive storage medium having a secondary winding or otherwise coupled to return the energy to the input voltage source. At the beginning of the conduction cycle of the power switching transistor, a gate is enabled which allows the capacitor to discharge into the inductive storage medium. When the discharge current reaches its peak value, the gate is disabled, and the energy stored in the inductive medium is discharged to the source by flyback action.

Inventors:

Wing K. Eng - Stanhope NJ
Robert E. Schroeder - Flanders NJ

Assignee:

American Telephone and Telegraph Company, AT&T Bell Laboratories - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H02J 900

US Classification:

307 66

Abstract:

An off-line switcher includes an auxiliary winding on the secondary side of the power transformer coupled by a power switch to a secondary voltage source in order to provide uninterruptible power to the output from either a primary AC or a secondary DC source. The power switches coupling both primary and secondary source voltages to the power transformers are driven at identical duty cycles by a common regulation control. Differing transformation ratios between primary and secondary sources of power define different operational ranges and determine flow of power based on the magnitude of the primary source of power.
