| 20100189446 | OPTICAL SIGNAL PROCESSING - Optical signal processing apparatus for processing packetised optical signals comprising a probe signal generator which is arranged to issue a plurality probe pulses, and an optical AND logic gate assembly, the arrangement of the apparatus being such that, in use, the probe signals have an interval between pulses substantially equal to the interval between data elements of the packetised data to be extracted, and the packetised data and the probe pulses are then combined by the AND logic gate assembly. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100239258 | OPTICAL PON NETWORK USING PASSIVE DPSK DEMODULATION - An optical PON network comprises a central office which generates N DPSK modulated optical signals, where N is an integer greater than 1, an optical coupling which connects the N signals to at least one optical fibre, a passive distribution mode located remotely from the central office which has at least one input port that is coupled to the fibre and a plurality of output node being arranged to transmit a first wavelength of the N signals to at least one of its output ports, and at least one optical network unit connected through a respective optical fibre to the first output port of the passive distribution node. The passive distribution node comprises an arrayed waveguide grating which provides a passive optical connection between its input port and the first output port and which for that connection functions as a bandpass filter having a profile and bandwidth selected such that the DPSK optical signal passed to the input node is converted to an intensity modulated signal at the output port. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100329680 | OPTICAL NETWORKS - The invention relates to improvements in or relating to optical networks. Methods and apparatus are disclosed for providing communications services to at least one user. Transmission of an optical signal in the downstream direction is described comprising at least one Wavelength Division Multiplexing channel such that at least one of the channels is an unmodulated channel. The unmodulated channel is arranged to transmit user data from the at least one user in the upstream direction. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20110236021 | Passive Optical Networks - A passive optical network system, a line coding method and an optical network unit are described. The optical network unit comprises a downlink optical receiver configured to receive a first portion of a downstream data signal, and an uplink optical remodulator configured to receive a second portion of the downstream data signal and remodulate it to generate a return-to-zero line coded upstream data signal. The downstream data signal may be inverse-return-to-zero line coded. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20100075769 | Cue Stick Tip Tool - A cue stick tip tool includes a shaper that can contour the tip to a nickel or dime radius by using an abrasive formed within a hollow shaper body. Also included is a ferrule guide surface leading to abrasive material usable to trim a side of the cue tip while holding the ferrule clear of the abrasive material to avoid scuffing the ferrule. Another included tool has a concave cylindrical grid of upstanding pointed spikes that can be rolled over the cue tip to make a pattern of chalk holding indentations in the cue tip. The tool package preferably also includes a conical recess for burnishing a side of the cue tip, arcs to measure nickel and dime radii of the cue tip, and a container holding a chalk block and talcum powder—all arranged to be carried on a belt clip. | 03-25-2010 |

| 20080209052 | System and Method for Delivering Value Added Services from Services Providers - A method and system for delivering value added service (VAS) applications offered by a service provider to a subscribing end user is presented. The method includes collecting, by a user service module, end user device information, forwarding, by the service provider, end user information, to a server, creating, by the service provider, target end user profiles, VAS application campaigns, and campaign schedules, and storing the same in the server. The method further comprises communicating, between the server and the user service module, to display an offer in the end user device for at least one of the VAS applications, in accordance with the target profiles, the application campaigns, and schedules, wherein, upon selecting by the user, the at least one of the VAS applications is loaded, installed, and activated in the end user device without further end user actions. | 08-28-2008 |
