Abstract:
Un método para control de admisión basado en prioridad en una red, el método que comprende: recibir (401) una petición de admisión para transmitir un flujo de información a una red a través de un canal decomunicación que tiene una gama de tasas de datos de canal;obtener (402) una prioridad del flujo de información, en donde la prioridad del flujo de informació n es una de unapluralidad de prioridades de flujo de información; dividir la gama de tasas de datos del canal en una pluralidad de regiones no solapadas; determinar (407) una región admisible dentro de una gama de tasas de datos de canal del canal decomunicación en respuesta a la prioridad del flujo de información, en donde la región admisible es una de unapluralidad de regiones admisibles dentro de la gama de tasas de datos de canal que corresponde a unasdiferentes de la pluralidad de prioridades de flujo de información, respectivamente, y cada una de la pluralidad deregiones admisibles es utilizable para transmitir el flujo de información con una respectiva de la pluralidad deprioridades; determinar (409) una tasa de datos de canal disponible del canal de comunicación para recibir el flujo deinformación por la red; y conceder (410) la petición de admisión para transmitir el flujo de información después de determinar que la tasade datos de canal disponible del canal de comunicación está dentro de la región admisible de la gama de tasasde datos de canal, en donde determinar una región admisible dentro de la gama de tasas de datos de canalcomprende seleccionar un grupo de regiones no solapadas como la región admisible.
Abstract:
A communications system and method for exchanging spectrum usage information through a drop box (100) includes one or more central stations (101) that defines a region of operation. A central drop box (102) is associated with the central station (101) for providing a database of spectrum usage information. Stations (103, 105, 107) using the communications system may submit information regarding spectrum usage to the central drop box (102) that affects the region of operation (109, 115) for providing the most efficient and non-interfering uses of the frequency spectrum.

Abstract:
A manufacturing method (700) and device ((100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600) provide a fixturing frame with an optics array alignment for a wireless local area network optics fixture array that has a plurality of circumferential cavities for collecting and detecting optical signals to achieve a quasi-diffuse collection/reception pattern.
Abstract:
A controller circuit (107) between a transceiver (104) and an RS232communication port (103) provides wireless communication to a remote unit and includes a transmitting and receiving mode indicator (503), a first delay circuit (506) for delaying a packet of data (501) before being transmitted, a timer (502) counting a period of time during which delaying termination of transmitting mode following a last data bit of the packet of data (501). Further, a receive signal detector (504) produces a carrier detect signal (521) and its delayed version (525) through a second delay (522) when a data packet (520) is received from the transceiver (104), first and second AND gates (523, 528) and a third delay circuit (526) receive signals (525and 520) to produce a reformatted received data packet (529) compatible to the RS232format for input to the RS232communication port (103).
Abstract:
A signal (503) passes directly, and also through an inverter (505), to a logic interface (504), to control the receiving and transmitting modes of a transceiver (104). A controller circuit (107) provides wireless communications to a transmitting block (108), transmitting leading logic zero data bits before the transmitted data packet arrives at the logic interface. The delay in a delay stage (506) equals the period of the leading zeros and a computed reformatted data packet is input to the RS232 port from another delay circuit (526). An Independent claim is included for a controller circuit between a transceiver and RS232 communication port.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for allowing communication units (100) to utilize non-licensed spectrum is provided herein. In particular, when a radio (100) determines a need to transmit within non-licensed spectrum, the radio (100) searches for a beacon being transmitted (303). The beacon identifies a priority of the current user of the non-licensed spectrum (305). If the radio's (100) priority is higher than the current user of the non-licensed spectrum, or if no beacon is heard, the radio (100) may begin transmitting within the non-licensed spectrum (311). As part of the radio's (100) transmission, a beacon will be broadcast by the radio (100) identifying the radio's (100) priority.
