Title: Resource interface unit for telecommunications switching node
Inventor: NOONAN MICHAEL E
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 1999-06-03
Abstract: A telecommunications switching node that includes at least one resource interface card (108) which serves as an interface for connection to external call processing resources (336). The interface card communicates with the line cards in the switching node directly over the system buses (118, 120, 122, 124), i.e. without passing through the CPU/matrix card (104) and it uses two line card ports to connect to all external resources. The resource interface card (108) also communicates with line cards (106) that are connected to the system buses in other switching nodes in an expanded switching network. Its resources are thus available to ports in the other nodes when those nodes have available ports that are not occupied with other tasks. For communications with the latter ports, the resource interface card (108) transmits information through the CPU/matrix cards (104) on its switching node and on the nodes where the communicating ports reside. Thus for communications with ports on its switching node, the interface card (108) receives information on the incoming bus (340) and transmits it on the outgoing bus (342) and for communications with ports on other nodes it receives information on the outgoing bus (342) and transmits it on the incoming bus (340).

IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1999-04-30
Abstract: An automated analyzer for performing multiple diagnostic assays simultaneously includes multiple stations, or modules, in which discrete aspects of the assay are performed on fluid samples contained in reaction receptacles. The analyzer includes stations for automatically preparing a specimen sample, incubating the sample at prescribed temperatures for prescribed periods, performing an analyte isolation procedure, and ascertaining the presence of a target analyte. An automated receptacle transporting system moves the reaction receptacles from one station to the next. The analyzer further includes devices for carrying a plurality of specimen tubes and disposable pipette tips in a machine-accessible manner, a device for agitating containers of target capture reagents comprising suspensions of solid support material and for presenting the containers for machine access thereto, and a device for holding containers of reagents in a temperature controlled environment and presenting the containers for machine access thereto. A method for performing an automated diagnostic assay includes an automated process for isolating and amplifying a target analyte. The process is performed by automatically moving each of a plurality of reaction receptacles containing a solid support material and a fluid sample between stations for incubating the contents of the reaction receptacle and for separating the target analyte bound to the solid support from the fluid sample. An amplification reagent is added to the separated analyte after the analyte separation step and before a final incubation step.

Patent CA-2342402-A1 (CA)
Inventor: JAGGER CHARLES E
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1999-02-02
Abstract: Une méthode et un dispositif qui détectent, suivent et filtrent de façon dynamique des signaux brouilleurs avec une vitesse (c'est-à-dire dans une période de trame de données AMCR IS-95 CDMA, ou en 20 ms) et une précision suffisantes pour éliminer ou réduire considérablement les effets nuisibles des signaux brouilleurs à bande étroite dans une liaison AMCR. Lorsqu'il est inséré dans un parcours de signal de radiofréquence, un filtre d'absorption adaptatif (ANF) détecte des signaux brouilleurs à bande étroite au-dessus d'un niveau de seuil à l'intérieur du signal AMCR. La détection s'effectue par balayage continu d'une bande d'excision préétablie, c'est-à-dire une bande étroite précise associée à un système AMPS. Les signaux brouilleurs détectés sont ensuite captés automatiquement et supprimés. Cela est réalisé par placement électronique d'une encoche de rejet à la fréquence des signaux brouilleurs. Plusieurs filtres d'absorption peuvent être utilisés pour supprimer simultanément plusieurs signaux brouilleurs. En l'absence de signaux brouilleurs, un mode évitement est choisi pour permettre au signal radiofréquence d'éviter l'encoche. Lors de la détection d'un signal brouilleur, un commutateur est placé en mode suppression où le signal brouilleur est dévié à travers une première section de l'encoche puis supprimé. Dans un autre mode, une ligne de commande externe peut être utilisée pour choisir le mode d'évitement qui permet au signal de dépasser la section de l'encoche, indépendamment du contenu du signal brouilleur.

Title: System and method for providing roaming incoming screening (ris) in a wireless intelligent network
Inventor: THIBERT MYRIAM
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 1999-08-27
Abstract: A system and method of controlling the delivery of an incoming call in a radio telecommunications network (100) based on the location of a roaming mobile subscriber (110). The radio telecommunications network includes a home (102A) network which comprises a Home Location Register (HLR) (104) and a Service Control Point (SCP) (106). The geographic area covered by the network comprises a plurality of regions, including the home area covered by the home network. Each of the regions comprises one or more service areas, each of which is served by a mobile switching center (MSC) having an identification indicator (MSCID).  The plural MSCIDs are clustered into groups, each of which covers a corresponding region. The HLR (104) keeps a subscriber profile which (300A) includes a termination service trigger (305), in addition to keeping track of the subscriber's location. The SCP (106) includes a service profile record (300B) which comprises one or more call delivery/termination service options (390). The service profile record also stores an indication (306) for each group whether an incoming call is to be delivered to the mobile subscriber when roaming in the area or regions covered by the group. A gateway MSC (410) interrogates the home HLR (104) for the subscriber's location when an incoming call is received thereat. The HLR, in turn, depending upon the termination service trigger (305), queries the SCP (106) for appropriate call delivery options.
