Title: Pressable infrared illuminant compositions
Inventor: NIELSON DANIEL B
IPC: C09K11/00
Filed: 1993-06-14
Abstract: Compositions are provided which, when burned, produce significant levels of infrared radiation, but only limited levels of visible radiation. The basic components of the compositions include a binder, an oxidizer, and an organic fuel. Preferred oxidiz-ers include those compounds which produce large quantities of infrared radiation when the flare composition is burned. Such ox-idizers include potassium nitrate, cesium nitrate, rubidium nitrate, and combinations of these compounds. The composition pref-erably includes significant quantities of cesium nitrate as an oxidizer. Selection of the binder is important in order to provide the composition with the desirable characteristics identified above. The binder of the present invention does not produce significant soot when burned. At the same time, the binder serves to form a composition which is processible, avoids chunking, and is com-patible with the oxidizers used. It has been found that polymer binders which include relatively short carbon chains (1-6 continu-ous carbon atoms) are preferred. Examples of such polymers include polyesters, polyethers, polyamides, and polyamines. Sim-ilarly, non-soot producing organic fuels are employed.

Patent CA-2150063-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CARLSEN RALPH
IPC: H04W4/16
Filed: 1995-05-24
Abstract: Intelligent network telephone calls are processed by an intelligent terminal which cooperates with network elements such as the database that contains information with respect to such calls. When a call requiring intelligent network treatment is first made from an intelligent terminal, the terminal does not have the requisite information to complete the call; the call is thus processed by network elements such as the originating switch and the network database which attempt to find routing information for the call. However, if the call contains an indication that (a) the calling party requests a down load, and the database record associated with the dialed number indicates that routing information stored in the database is marked for down loading, then the routing information is down loaded and stored in the intelligent terminal. When a subsequent call to the same number and therefore requiring the same treatment is again made, the intelligent terminal now contains the requisite routing information needed to complete the call. In this circumstance, the call does not have to be processed by intelligent network elements such as the network database. The routing information can be a destination number, or an indication of the particular network (e.g. wireline, cellular or CATV) that will carry the call, or other similar information.

Title: Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) Transport of Voice-Band Signals
Inventor: SHERIF MOSTAFA H
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1995-06-29
Abstract: A plurality of ATM networks may be interconnected to allow communication of voice-band signals between them by using one or more PSTNs and a novel interface that converts ATM formatted data packets to a format usable by digital multiplication equipment (DCME). Such an interface thus allows the DCME to advantageously function as a gateway between the ATM network and PSTN by providing for optimum bandwidth usage between the networks. In an illustrative example of the invention, a DCME available from AT & T as the Integrated Access and Cross Connect System ("IACS"), is provided with an ATM-to-DCME interface that converts ATM formatted packets to a regular channelized bitstream usable as an input by the IACS. The interface and the IACS are positioned on both ends of a PSTN to allow for connectivity between the PSTN and a plurality of ATM networks, as well as the required optimization of bandwidth usage. In another illustrative example of the invention, the functionality of the interface is built in to the IACS to convert ATM formatted packets directly into efficient wideband formatted packets for transmission over the PSTN.
