Title: Flexible over the wing passenger loading bridge
Inventor: HUTTON NEIL
IPC: B64F1/305
Filed: 2003-01-14
Granted: 2006-04-11
Abstract: Disclosed is a novel apparatus for moving passengers between an airport terminal building and a doorway of an aircraft located rearward of a wing of the aircraft. The inventive apparatus includes a passageway member pivotally anchored to one of the terminal building and a passenger loading bridge for servicing a front doorway of a same aircraft. The apparatus includes a telescopic passageway member that is pivotally mounted to the passageway member via a flexible connection. In use, the apparatus is cantilevered over the wing of an aircraft with the flexible connection substantially above a highest point along an upper surface of the aircraft wing. The flexible connection allows a cabin carried at an outboard end of the telescopic passageway member to mate to the rear doorway of the aircraft, providing an open passageway between the rear doorway and the terminal building through which passengers deplane. Positioning the flexible connection above the high point of the wing approximately minimizes the inclination of each passageway member floor surface.

Title: Network selection methods and apparatus with home network prioritization after network signal recovery or power-on
Inventor: GUNARATNAM JAYASRI
IPC: H04W28/12
Filed: 2004-02-27
Granted: 2016-02-09
Abstract: Network selection methods and apparatus with home network prioritization after network signal recovery and/or power-on are disclosed. In one illustrative example involving automatic network selection, a mobile station (200) selects and operates with a non-home communication network (406). The mobile station (200) then experiences an out-of-coverage condition (or a power down condition) but subsequently regains signal coverage (or is powered back on).  In response, the mobile station (200) scans to identify a plurality of communication networks in its coverage area. If a home network (402) is identified as being available, the mobile station (200) selects and operates with the home network (402). Otherwise, if the previous non-home network (406) (e.g. the RPLMN) is identified as being available, the mobile station (200) continues operation with the previous non-home network (406).

Title: Oversampling technique to reduce jitter
Inventor: CASTLEBARY ROBERT ALLEN
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 2004-03-22
Granted: 2011-11-01
Abstract: To achieve improved jitter performance within prescribed bandwidth constraints, a receiver (140) samples a digital signal (11) upon each of n periodic sample clock pulses that occur during the interval t, where n is chosen such that log2(n+1) is an integer (x) greater than zero. At the each of each interval t, the receiver generates a x+1-bit sample value having a first bit indicating the value of the digital signal being sampled, and x remaining bits which collectively indicate a sample interval during which the digital signal changed states if such a change did occur When a change does occur, the receiver inverts the first bit of each sample value upon decoding to coincide with the change in the digital signal.
