| 20080282755 | LOCK APPARATUS AND METHOD - A codeable lock, operable by an authorized key, includes a housing defining a longitudinal axis, a lock cylinder positioned within the housing and selectively rotatable relative to the housing about the longitudinal axis, and a sidebar moveable between a locked position, in which at least a portion of the sidebar is engaged with the lock cylinder and the housing to prevent rotation of the lock cylinder relative to the housing, and an unlocked position, in which the sidebar is disengaged from at least one of the housing and the lock cylinder. The codeable lock also includes a codebar positioned within the lock cylinder. The codebar is moveable from an uncoded state to a coded state upon insertion of the authorized key into the lock cylinder and by securing the codebar to the sidebar. The codeable lock further includes a tumbler positioned within the lock cylinder and engaged with the codebar. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20100206025 | MASTER KEY LOCK, SYSTEM AND METHOD - A master key lock includes a lock cylinder having a keyway for receiving a key, a sleeve about the cylinder, a plurality of wafer tumblers, a master key and means for axially moving the sleeve relative to the cylinder when the master key is inserted into the keyway. A system that uses the master key lock includes a lock case wherein the sleeve is disposed between the cylinder and the lock case, the sleeve being axially movable within the case. The sleeve comprises a plurality of transversely disposed slots for engaging the plurality of wafer tumblers such that the lock is unlocked by insertion of a key or a master key. The invention also provides for a method of using the master key lock. | 08-19-2010 |

| 20090238210 | SLOTTED MODE ACQUISITION - A method for conserving resources in a communication system includes entering an awake state from a sleep state at a first time, where the first time occurs a predetermined period prior to a communication event. The predetermined period is greater than or equal to a worst-case determination period for determining a timing offset relative to an access point. An initial timing offset relative to the access point is determined during the predetermined period. The sleep state is entered for a remainder of the predetermined period upon determination of the initial timing offset. The awake state is entered for the communication event. The timing offset relative to the access point is determined based at least in part on the initial timing offset. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20100238974 | DOWNLINK COMMUNICATION - A method for conserving bandwidth in a communication system includes spreading a data frame and a broadcast frame. A complex data stream having a first component and a second component is generated. The data frame is assigned to the first component and the broadcast frame is assigned to the second component. The complex data stream is transmitted to a tag. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100254435 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR UPLINK COMMUNICATION - A method for conserving bandwidth in a communication system includes spreading a data frame using a first pseudo-noise (PN) spreader. A broadcast frame is spread using a second PN spreader. A complex data stream having a first component and a second component is generated. The data frame is assigned to the first component and the broadcast frame is assigned to the second component. The complex data stream is transmitted to a tag. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20110116472 | HANDOVER PROCESSING IN MULTIPLE ACCESS POINT DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM - This disclosure relates to method, device and system for performing handover processing. A roaming list is configured at a receiver which includes multiple entries. Each entry of the roaming list includes receive parameters. A measurement operation is performed on an entry of the roaming list. A transmitter is set based on the measurement operation. Finally, an uplink signal is transmitted to an access point at a time based on a slot start time and a random timing offset. The uplink signal is transmitted while a second signal is transmitted from another node. | 05-19-2011 |

| 20110134965 | RSSI MEASUREMENT MECHANISM IN THE PRESENCE OF PULSED JAMMERS - This disclosure relates to method, device and system for controlling power in a communication system. A plurality of power levels is measured from a received signal that includes a pulsed noise source. The received signal is correlated with a known sequence creating a correlation metric. A signal power is determined based on the correlation metric and the plurality of power levels. An uplink signal is transmitted at a transmit power that is based on the signal power. | 06-09-2011 |
