Title: System and method of providing a mobile station's service support information to a radio telecommunications network
Inventor: CORRIVEAU MICHEL
IPC: H04W68/12
Filed: 1997-11-04
Abstract: A system and method of ensuring that a called mobile station's expected service type matches a calling party's service type in a radio telecommunications network in which both voice service and data service are provided. A service code generator (51) in a serving mobile switching center (MSC)(22) generates a service code that indicates the calling party's service type. The service code is sent in a page (29) from the serving MSC to the mobile station (24), and includes the service code. An expected service code generator in the called mobile station generates an expected service code that indicates the called mobiles station's expected service type. The expected service code is sent in a page response (32) from the mobile station to a border MSC (26) that borders the serving MSC. The border MSC  (26) extracts the expected service code and sends it to the serving MSC (22) where it is compared with the calling party's service code. If the service codes match, the call is connected to be mobile station. If the service codes do not match, the mobile station is denied access to the radio telecommunications network.

Title: Measurement radio system for producing operating information for traffic radios
Inventor: MURPHY MYLES PATRICK
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1999-07-26
Abstract: A measurement radio system uses a measurement radio to scan active channels of a base station and produce operating information for the traffic radios servicing the active channels. The measurement radio can produce operating information, such as signal strength, bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER) and signal to interference ratio (C/I), which is used to determine whether to change the manner in which the tragic radio is servicing the active channel. For example, if the measurement radio can switch between different sets of antennas, the measurement radio can scan an active voice/data channel using a different set of antennas than the traffic radio is using to service the active channel and determine operating information related to the signal received over the active channel using the different set of antennas. The traffic radio can use the operating information to determine whether to hand off the active channel to the different set of antennas. The measurement radio can determine operating information, such as operating coefficients, parameters or settings, to change how the traffic radio services the active channel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for cooling molded parts and for transporting the molded parts from a receiving position to a holding/ejecting position. The device of the present invention has particular utility with an index molding machine having a rotary turret block with at least two movable mold halves thereon. The cooling device includes a cooling station assembly having a plurality of blowing tubes for applying a cooling fluid to external surfaces of molded parts, a take-off plate having a plurality of holders for receiving cooled molded parts and a connecting plate connecting the take-off plate and the cooling station assembly. The connecting plate is connected to the take-off plate by a pivotable connection and is connected to the cooling station assembly by a rigid connection. The connecting plate is movable along an axis substantially parallel to one of the faces upon which the molded parts to be cooled and removed are positioned. The device further includes a linkage assembly for causing the take-off plate to move between a receiving position and a holding/ejecting position and vice versa. Movement of the take-off plate causes the connecting means to move along the first axis which in turn causes the cooling station assembly to move from a non-cooling position to a cooling position and vice versa.
