Abstract: A system is disclosed for transferring currency electronically between accounts. The system allows currency to be immediately transferred from a first account to a ATM. The first account can be accessed in a number of ways, including remotely from a general purpose computer or from an ATM using a transaction card. The ATM provides the individual with a plurality of transaction choices such as the transfer of an amount of currency to a second account. The ATM transmits information to a main computer regarding the second account and the amount of currency to be transferred. The main computer includes a database containing entry codes and routing codes for a plurality of banks belonging to the present electronic transfer network. Using this database, the main computer validates information such as the entry code for the banks and the availability of the second account prior to allowing the transaction to proceed. A transaction card associated with the second account is used to compare the recipient account to the account number provided by the sender. The transferred currency can then be retrieved using a second ATM. The transaction card is used solely to identify the recipient and currency is not actually transferred to the second account.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for embedding or embedding digital data into an analog host or cover signal. A distributed signal feature of the cover signal in a particular domain (time, frequency or space) is calculated and compared with a set of predefined quantization values corresponding to an information symbol to be encoded. The amount of change required to modify the signal feature to the determined target quantization value is calculated and the cover signal is modified accordingly to so change the feature value over a predefined interval. Information symbols are extracted by the opposite process. In one embodiment, the predefined value is a short term autocorrelation value of the cover signal.

Abstract: A microchip laser assembly (20) provides a microchip laser (50) along with an integral Peltier thermoelectric temperature controller and temperature sensor (36). The temperature sensor (36) measures the temperature of the microchip laser (50) during operation so that the polarity and magnitude of a direct current to Peltier thermoelectric elements (38) may be controlled, thereby controlling the temperature of the microchip laser (50) and stabilizing the optical output frequency or other microchip laser operating parameters. The microchip laser assembly (20) can be mounted, along with a pump source, upon a submount such that the microchip laser can be optically pumped. As a result of the construction of the microchip laser assembly, the temperature of the microchip laser can be controlled independent of the temperature of the pump source. <IMAGE>

On utilise comme entrée, non seulement des informations existant dans de la cellule d'établissement d'appel, mais également des informations d'état de cellule provenant de cellules voisines de la cellule d'établissement de l'appel. Les informations d'état de cellule provenant de cellules voisines existent même lorsque la cellule voisine est gérée par un autre central, par exemple, un autre contrôleur de réseau radio. Selon une réalisation, les informations d'état de cellule utilisées par la prise de décision comprennent des données mesurées prises sur au moins une partie de cellule multi-connexion, c'est le cas notamment des informations d'interférence radio. Pour transmettre les informations d'état de cellule dans la prise de décision de réseau entre centraux (notamment, entre contrôleurs de réseau radio), on utilise un signal de canal commun.
