Abstract:
A communication system is adapted to accommodate changes to bandwidth demand through the use of communiucation interface modules, such as radio modules (121-124), are coupled to a communication signal processor, such as a multi-port modem (110), in order to serve an initial bandwidth demand. Thereafter, additional communication signal processors may be added, being coupled to one or more of the communication interface modules (121-124) decoupled from the initially deployed communication signal processor (110), to serve an increased bandwidth demand. Preferably, an expansion chassis architecture is used to accomodatea number of communication signal processors atleast equivalent to the number of communication information interfaces of the plurality. In preferred embodiments, the communication interface modules operate upon different channels, such as radio frequency channels, although coupling to the communication signal processor upon a same channel, sucha as a common intermediate frequency channel.

Abstract:
An integrated DSL and radio communication system is provided. A DSL system and a radio communication system are configured to share numerous components, such as environmental housing, a power subsystem, a data transfer subsystem, and backhaul cabling. By sharing such components, the complexity and cost of implementing remote DSL access and remote radio communications is reduced.

Abstract:
A heat exchanger includes a vapor collection pipe, a liquid collection pipe, and an exchange pipeline. The exchange pipeline includes a condensing section, an evaporation section, and a transition section. An upper end of the condensing section is connected to the vapor collection pipe. A lower end of the condensing section is connected to a first end of the transition section. An upper end of the evaporation section is connected to a second end of the transition section. A lower end of the evaporation section is connected to the liquid collection pipe. The evaporation section and the condensing section respectively extend in directions opposite to each other.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an attachment mechanism for attaching a wireless access point to a vertical structure, such as a wall. The attachment mechanism includes a bracket that is mounted to the vertical structure. The attachment mechanism also includes at least two engagement members positioned on opposing sides of the access point. The two engagement members are horizontally aligned, in some embodiments, when the access point is engaged with a bracket. The two engagement members engage with receptacles that are part of the bracket. One of the receptacles includes a tab which prevents its corresponding engagement member from fully engaging with the receptacle, allowing the attachment mechanism to disengage via disengagement of only one of the engagement members.
Abstract:
A local multipoint distribution service base station apparatus for sending and receiving communication signals to and from subscribers includes a base unit having at least one rack which is adapted to receive at least one subrack. At least one communication signal generating unit is also arranged and configured to be received by the subrack. In addition, a transmitting/receiving unit is operationally connected to the base unit for transmitting and/or receiving the communication signals to and from the subscribers.
Abstract:
A water meter transmission system reads data from a water meter and wirelessly transmits data to a central billing or receiving system. Disclosed transmission systems are fully integrated and contained within pit housings such that electronic components are well protected. A spiral antenna is integrated into a specially configured integrated antenna cover which fits into the top cover of a pit housing. The antenna cover and/or upper lip area of the upper lip of the main housing may comprise a distal barrier and a medial barrier used to exclude water and contaminates. Disclosed transmission systems offer high output and low power consumption and vitiate the need for meter readers to physically access a water meter or other meters.
