Title: Mapping an area into triangles
Inventor: HOWARD JUSTIN
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2000-04-13
Abstract: An area containing a set of spaced sample points is mapped into tessellating triangles by connecting each point to every other point by a straight line, creating a group of lines. The number of intersections of each line is counted and the line or lines with the greatest number of intersections is removed from the group. The counting and line removal steps are repeated until there are no more intersecting lines, the remaining lines forming tessellated triangles. The area may represent the coverage area of a wireless local area network (WLAN). The sample points are points where a site survey tool measures a radio signal parameter. An area map of a building is overlayed with triangles shaded to display the variation of the radio signal parameter. The map is displayed on the display unit of the site survey tool. Triangles are shaded by interpolation using a gradient fill algorithm.

IPC: H03K19/0185
Filed: 1996-12-18
Abstract: A bidirectional voltage translator 102 couples signals between ports 106,110 which have different voltage signal levels, for example 3 V and 5 V ports in a radiotelephone and an attached accessory. The data direction is controlled by a state machine (figures 4-6) based on a PLD or microprocessor. The translator 102 includes a first port 400, a second port 402 and a bidirectional translator circuit 404-408,410, 412-415 coupled between the first and second ports 400,402.

Title: Misbehaving mobile station identification system and method,and a mobile station for use therewith
Inventor: CUFFARO ANGELO
IPC: H04W24/00
Filed: 1999-02-12
Abstract: Malfunctioning or misbehaving mobile stations (12), that are capable nonetheless of continuing to communicate with a wireless communication system (10), are detected for the purposes of either shutting down misbehaving mobile stations or reporting misbehaving mobile stations so that corrective action can be taken. An error detector and interpreter (23) detect (42) in wireless communication signals received from a mobile station any breach of protocol errors indicative of faulty operation of the mobile station. A misbehavior analyzer (26) analyzes (44) the errors over time to determine whether the mobile station is misbehaving. Normal access of the mobile station to the wireless communication system is shut down (46) or a message is sent to the subscriber in the event the mobile station is determined to be misbehaving. The mobile station also has a shutdown mode of operation (36), controllable by a message sent from the network, in which the mobile station remains idle and nonfunctional until repaired. The quality of service to subscribers using the wireless communication system is thus improved.
