    Abstract: In a system including a resource (100) which is shared among a number of users, it is difficult to distribute the available capacity of the resources fairly among the users and still maximize resource utilization. Additionally, it is desirable to allow at least some of the control over usage rates to remain with the users, while at the same time avoiding situations where the resource is overloaded. A system and method are disclosed wherein usage rates are selected from among a set of available rates according to a set of persistence vectors.

    Abstract: The cellular communication system includes a number of base stations through which a mobile unit communicates. The mobile unit maintains a list of active base stations with which it can communicate. One of the active stations is in communication with the mobile and uses this communication to measure the round-trip-delay between mobile and station. This delay is compared with a threshold and if this is exceeded, and the base station is a boundary station, then a hard hand-off is executed. The mobile can also monitor candidate base stations and if a triggering pilot signal is detected a hand-off can be triggered. Preferably the handoff can be between base stations controlled by different mobile switching centres.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing an inter-system soft handoff is described. In accordance with the present invention, when a subscriber unit crosses from a first cellular system to a second cellular system, a base station controller determines if sufficient network resources are available to conduct a inter-system soft handoff. If so, the base station controller generates a set of signaling messages that cause call processing resource to be allocated and for the call to be processed at the second cellular system. The base station controller then perform data-selection and data-broadcast for the call by transmitting data to the subscriber unit by way of the second cellular system as well as via one or more base stations to which the base station controller is directly coupled. The determination as to whether sufficient network resources are available to conduct the inter-system soft handoff is based on the type of connection that exists between the first cellular system and the second cellular system, the number of inter-system calls being conducted, and the frame offset of the call currently being processed.

    Abstract: In a method for minimizing a data bottleneck in a Low Data Rate Network (LDRN) (34), i.e. a facsimile network having a transmission rate less than the data rate of the facsimile machines serviced by the network, the LDRN (34) has a one-dimensional image data format and a two-dimensional image data format. The method comprises processing the facsimile transmissions in order to make the data rates of the LDRN and the FAX machines compatible, thereby minimizing any potential facsimile data bottlenecks that may occur in the LDRN due to its slower data rate. In the method, a first facsimile (FAX) machine (12) is set to the one-dimensional image data format; a data stream encoded in the one-dimensional image data format is sent (32) from the first FAX machine (12) to a first side of the LDRN (34); the data stream sent is uncompressed, and the uncompressed data stream is re-encoded into the two-dimensional image data format; the re-encoded data stream is transmitted from the first side of the LDRN (34) to a second side of the LDRN (34); the transmitted data stream is second uncompressed; the second uncompressed data stream is second re-encoded into the one-dimensional image data format; and the re-encoded data stream is second sent (36) from the second side of the LDRN (34) to a second FAX machine (16).

    Abstract: An apparatus and method of providing communications between standard unmodified terminal equipment over a telephone link that includes a digital wireless link. The digital wireless link introduces substantial time variable delay. In order to pass time sensitive messages over the link, time sensitive messages are recognized and translated into time insensitive messages for transmission over the wireless link. The time insensitive messages indicate the information contained in the time sensitive messages and in the timing of the time sensitive messages. At the receiving end, the time insensitive messages are recognized and the time sensitive messages reconstructed with the appropriate timing.

    Abstract: The invented wireless system includes one or more payphones (12) from which users may initiate payphone calls. A mobile switching center (16) connects telephone calls initiated from wireless payphones to external telephone systems (18) such as the public switch telephone network. To meter charges incurred during the telephone call within an external system, the external system transmits periodic metering pulses to the mobile switching center (16). Each pulse is representative of a predetermined amount of money associated with the telephone call. The rate at which the periodic pulses are transmitted to the mobile switching center (16) depends upon the current billing rate and may be affected by, for example, the time of day. Rather than the forwarding all of the metering pulses to the wireless payphone (12), therefore consuming a portion of the bandwidth available for wireless telephone calls, the mobile switching center (16) calculates a steady state billing rate from the metering pulses, then transmits only the steady state billing rate to the wireless payphone (12).
