| 20100165924 | RADIO INTEROPERABILITY SYSTEM AND METHOD - A method, system and memory are provided for enabling interoperability. A communication session between different communication systems, such as radio systems, operating using different protocols is initiated by receiving a scenario identifier from one of the user devices. An interoperability server receives the scenario identifier and accesses interoperability data to obtain the connection information corresponding the scenario matching the scenario identifier. The data includes scenarios for communication sessions and the connections required for each scenario. Once the interoperability server obtains the connection information, the communication session is initiated. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20090077191 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISTRIBUTING NOTIFICATIONS TO A GROUP OF RECIPIENTS - Systems and methods by which a user may use a client computing device (such as a mobile phone, for example) to initiate and send a notification message to a selected group of recipients are provided. The notification message may be an audio message that is delivered by various electronic methods including e-mail, text message, and/or voicemail. In defining the notification message, the user is provided with the ability to request a confirmation that the notification message has been received and/or understood by the selected recipients. In some embodiments, recipients are asked to respond to the notification message indicating that they have received and understood the message. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20080288195 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATION OF HARDWARE SIGNAL CHARACTERIZATION AND SIGNAL INTEGRITY VERIFICATION - A PCB comprising two or more components, such as ICs, comprises drivers and receivers that facilitate communication of signals between the components. Signal terminations, such as series and AC terminations, are used to increase the integrity of signals transmitted between components. Advantageously, values of the terminations are determined using a computerized method comprising sequential adjustment of on-chip programmable resistors and/or capacitors on chips coupled to the PCB. Thus, the effect of various values of on-chip termination resistors and/or capacitors on signal integrity is actually tested on the PCB, rather than simulating using software, for example, in order to determine optimal termination values. Characteristics of on-chip programmable resistors and/or capacitors may be adjusted by writing values into registers of the corresponding chips. The termination testing may be performed at various temperature and humidity settings corresponding to expected use environments in order to observe signal integrity at specific use environments. | 11-20-2008 |
