Patent EP-0793360-A3 (EP)
Inventor: GOLDEN GLENN DAVID
IPC: H04B7/08
Filed: 1997-02-18
Abstract: An apparatus for performance improvement of a burst mode digital wireless
receiver comprises a processing circuit for processing a plurality of received signals and
providing a processed signal and a delay circuit for introducing a predetermined delay to
the processed signal. The delay circuit is coupled to the processing circuit. The
predetermined delay is such that the processed signal is delayed to correspond with a
later data burst. 
     The processing circuit weights and combines the received signals, where the
processing circuit reduces a mean squared error of an output signal. The processing
circuit weights and combines the received signals using a predetermined symbol pattern
within a sync sequence within a time slot.
Patent EP-0808053-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CHEN ROBERT KUO-WEI
IPC: H04M3/26
Filed: 1997-04-30
Abstract: A line circuit whose circuit components are
selectively controllable by a microprocessor/DSP to
provide normal BORSCHT functions or to be selectively
tested without need for an electromechanical relay to
isolate the line circuit from the loop conductors. The
conventional line transformer is advantageously replaced
by a loop current feed resistor network and either a high
voltage or a lower voltage battery may be connected to
provide loop current to the resistor network through a
current regulator circuit and battery switch circuit. In
normal operation, an ac feedback path, which includes the
line receive amplifier, increases the terminating
impedance above the dc value of the feed resistors so the
loop termination resistor network may match the
characteristic impedance of the loop at the audio
frequencies employed. In the testing mode, the
microprocessor/DSP selectively applies or denies power to
the line driving and receive amplifiers as well as to a
level shifting circuit interposed between the codec analog
output and the input to isolate or include these
components or to provide a codec loop-back path. The
condition of the dc feed resistors and protective fuses,
the condition of the loop closure detector and of the
ringing generator are reported to the microprocessor/DSP
over the same terminal normally used for reporting the on-hook
and off-hook status of the loop.

Abstract: A system and related method for controlling access to building doors or to
machines, such as automatic teller machines (ATMs). The system combines high-speed
fingerprint matching with another form of identification carried or memorized by a user
(10) of the system. In one disclosed embodiment of the invention, the user (10) carries
or wears an identification badge (18) that includes a transponder for sending preliminary
identification data to an access controller (14) as the user approaches a door (12)
through which access is controlled. The controller (14) uses the preliminary identification
data, such as an account number or employee number, to access a fingerprint database
(44) and retrieve reference fingerprint data previously stored there during an enrollment
procedure. If the user's identification includes a "smart card," the reference fingerprint
data may stored in the card instead of in the database (44). The retrieved reference
fingerprint data are then compared, in a fingerprint correlator (46), with a subject
fingerprint image obtained from the user (10) through a fingerprint sensor (16) located
near, or integrated into the door (12). A successful match in the correlator (46) verifies
the preliminary identification data and results in access to the door or machine being
granted to the user. In another form of the invention, the user carries a conventional
machine-readable card, which is placed in a card reader (32) to obtain the preliminary
identification data.

Abstract: An access network system capable of reducing loss
probability in an access network which is connected on one
hand to a service node (6) of an existing network through
subscriber lines (7), and on the other hand to multiple
user terminals (8a-8b), and has a concentrating function.
A WAC (Wireless local loop Access Controller, that is, a
controller of the access network) (1) connected with the
service node (local switch) (6) receives from a base
station (2) a notification that no idle wireless channel is
present if a wireless circuit (4) is busy when the service
node (6) makes a call request, and receives from the base
station (2) a notification that an idle wireless channel is
present when the base station (2) detects it in the
wireless circuit (4). If the WAC (1) receives the channel
busy notification, or cannot detect an idle channel in a
trunk line (5), the WAC (1) reserves a call processing. If
the WAC (1) receives the notification that an idle wireless
channel is present, or detects an idle channel in the trunk
line (5), and if the current subscriber line (7) from the
service node (6) still holds the incoming call state, the
WAC (1) releases the reservation of the call processing,
and performs a repeated call processing for the call
request when the call request is still present.
