Title: Mobile communication system, user apparatus and method
Inventor: NAKAMURA TAKEHIRO
IPC: H04W48/20
Filed: 2008-08-15
Granted: 2013-07-04
Abstract: A user device, which is used in a mobile communication system where a macro cell available for an unspecified user to access is intermingled with a closed cell available only for a specified user to access, is provided with a means that measures the quality of a signal from a cell existing in a range in an idle state at a predetermine period, a means that measures the quality of a signal from a neighboring cell at a predetermine cell search period, and a means that carries out a cell reselection in response to a cell search result. A frequency of the macro cell is the same as at least a part of frequencies of the closed cell. In the case where the user device exists in the range of the macro cell and a predetermined reselection condition is satisfied, a closed cell adjacent to a cell in the range is reselected as a standby cell. The predetermined reselection condition is such a state that the quality of a signal from a closed cell is better, by a predetermined threshold or more, than the quality of a signal from a cell in the range, wherein the state continues for a period that is equal to or longer than a predetermined reselection period.

Title: External controller/charger system for an implantable medical device capable of automatically providing data telemetry through a charging coil during a charging session
Inventor: AGHASSIAN DANIEL
IPC: A61N1/378
Filed: 2010-10-19
Granted: 2013-08-29
Abstract: An improved external controller / charger system for an implantable medical device is described herein, in which the external controller/charger system provides automatic switching between telemetry and charging without any manual intervention by the patient. The external controller/charger system includes an external controller which houses a telemetry coil and an external charging coil coupled to the external controller. Normally, a charging session is carried out using the external charging coil, and a telemetry session is carried out using the telemetry coil. However, when a patient requests to carry out telemetry during a charging session, the external charging coil is used instead of the internal telemetry coil. Specifically, in one embodiment, the external controller/charger system automatically decouples the external charging coil from the charging circuitry and couples it to the telemetry circuitry. The device and the implantable medical device then carry out the desired telemetry via the external charging coil. After a predetermined time, or after the telemetry session is complete, the external controller/charger system automatically decouples the external coil from the telemetry circuitry and recouples it to the charging circuitry.
