Patent CA-2333729-C (CA)
Inventor: PROCTOR JAMES A JR
IPC: H04L1/16
Filed: 1999-05-26
Granted: 2007-07-17
Abstract: A technique for providing high speed data service over standard wireless connections via an unique integration of protocols and existing cellular signaling, such as is available with Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) type systems through more efficient allocation of access to CDMA channels. For example, when more users exist than channels, the invention determines a set of probabilities for which users will require channel access at which times, and dynamically assigns channel resources accordingly. Channel resources are allocated according to a buffer monitoring scheme provided on forward and reverse links between a base station and multiple subscriber units. Each buffer is monitored over time for threshold levels of data to be transmitted in that buffer. For each buffer, a probability is calculated that indicates how often the specific buffer will need to transmit data and how much data will be transmitted. This probability takes into account the arrival rates of data into the buffer, as well as which thresholds within the buffer are exceeded, as well as which resources in the form of channels are already allocated to the subscriber unit.

Abstract: A boom mechanism that is cooperable with a lift vehicle or base structure (108) includes a tower boom (12) and an upper boom (20) liftable in a dependent relationship by a single lifting mechanism (28). The tower boom and the upper boom are respectively pivotally secured to an upright (16) having a fixed orientation by a tower link (34) or the like. A timing link (26) is secured between the tower boom and the upper boom, and a lifting mechanism is secured between the upright and the upper boom. As the upper boom is driven by the lifting mechanism, the timing link secured to the tower boom causes the tower boom to pivot about a tower boom nose pivot (18), thereby raising both the upper boom and the tower boom in a dependent relationship. The construction helps to minimize the need for tail and frame counterweight (112) by controlling a position of the platform (24) in configurations of both forward and rearward instability. As a consequence, the gross vehicle weight can be considerably reduced.

Abstract: The communique system for cellular communication networks operates with existing cellular communication networks to provide communique communication services to subscribers. The Communique transmission to an individual subscriber can be managed using the hand off capability of the cellular communication network. Thus, if the subscriber roams out of the narrowcast coverage area, the communique transmission to the subscriber is extended from the narrowcast coverage area via an "umbilical" connection on a point-to-point basis using the existing capabilities of the cellular communication network.  This enables uninterrupted service for the subscriber even if the subscriber does not continue to remain within the narrowcast coverage area.
