Abstract: A lighting unit is disclosed comprising a casing (10) having two separable
portions (12,14) which are slidably engagable with one another. In a first
portion (14) of the casing (10) is disposed a light source, an electrical fan and
one part of a plug and socket electrical connection. The second
portion (12) of the casing (10) carries an optical light transmitting cable (40)
having one end connected to said portion which receives light from
the light source and transmit it to the other end of the cable (40) remote
from the casing (10), and further comprises the alternate component of
the electrical connection. The second portion (12) of the casing (10) also
comprises a power supply means by which electrical power is
supplied through the electrical connection (30) to the components
provided in the second portion of the casing (10). The invention is
advantageous in that sliding engagement of the respective casing
portions automatically makes an electrical connection while
simultaneously bringing the light source into correct disposition and
register with the end of the optical cable (40) mounted in the alternate
portion to that in which the light source is disposed. The second
portion (12) is also ideally provided with a duct (42) through which air is
expelled or from which air is drawn by the fan, said air passing over
the light source to cool same.

Title: System and method for frequency up-conversion
Inventor: SORRELLS DAVID F
IPC: H03C1/62
Filed: 1999-10-18
Abstract: A method and system is described wherein a signal with a lower frequency is up-converted to a higher frequency. In one embodiment, the higher frequency signal is used as a stable frequency and phase reference. In another embodiment, the invention is used as a transmitter. The upconversion is accomplished by controlling a switch with an oscillating signal, the frequency of the oscillating signal being selected as a sub-harmonic of the desired output frequency. When the invention is being used as a frequency or phase reference, the oscillating signal is not modulated, and controls a switch that is connected to a bias signal. When the invention is being used in the frequency modulation (FM) or phase modulation (PM) implementations, the oscillating signal is modulated by an information signal before it causes the switch to gate the bias signal. In the amplitude modulation implementation (AM), the oscillating signal is not modulated, but rather causes the switch to gate a reference signal that is substantially equal to or proportional to the information signal. In the FM and PM implementations, the signal that is output from the switch is modulated substantially the same as the modulated oscillating signal. In the AM implementation, the signal that is output from the switch has an amplitude that is a function of the information signal. In both embodiments, the output of the switch is filtered, and the desired harmonic is output.

Abstract: A multi-communication system of this invention includes
terrestrial cellular telephone systems, a satellite cellular
telephone system and a fixed telephone system capable of
roaming with one another. Each of these communication systems
has an all-terminal information register for registering
subscriber information of all mobile stations accommodated in
each cellular telephone system. The cellular telephone system
registers the subscriber information transmitted from the
mobile station at the time of position registration to the
register of its own system and broadcasts this subscriber
information to other communication systems. Receiving the
subscriber information so broadcasted, the communication
system registers the subscriber information to the register
of its own system. Consequently, even when a line connection
request to the mobile station occurs inside any communication
systems, the line connection request can be directly
transferred to the system to which the mobile station visits,
and the incoming time to the mobile station becomes shorter.

The DCM comprises an interaction-level monitoring function (367) for monitoring interaction level of the MMCC according to programmed criteria, and comparing the real-time level with preset threshold, a search and retrieve function (363) for searching a data repository storing records of interactions and retrieving interaction data for specific interactions according to programmed criteria, a scripting function for selecting agents of the MMCC for participating in a campaign, and for preparing task lists for said agents; and an initiation function for initiating in a campaign and distributing the task lists to the selected agents. During times of interaction level above the preset threshold the DCM searches the data repository, retrieves data, and prepares agent and task lists for a campaign, and when the interaction level falls below the preset threshold, the DCM launches and distributes task lists to agents selected for a campaign.

Abstract: A method and system for communicating data between an integrated circuit (12) and each of a first device (14) and a second device (18). Communications between the integrated circuit and the first device use a first interface protocol, while communications between the integrated circuit and the second device use a second interface protocol. Both interface protocols, however, share the same data bus (22) and clock bus (24). To communicate using the second interface protocol, the first device, which uses the first interface protocol, is first deactivated by sending address data via the shared data bus that does not identify the first device, thereby causing the first device to enter an inactive state until a stop condition is detected on the shared data bus (22). Then, communications using the second interface protocol can be carried out, provided that a start or stop condition for the first interface protocol is not inadvertently generated on the shared data bus (22).
