20090046769METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING SIGNAL PROCESSING REQUIREMENTS FOR TRANSMITTING PACKET-BASED DATA - A modem and method for operating same. A receiver circuit of the modem is coupled to receive a continuous analog signal from a communication channel. This analog signal includes both packet and idle information. The receiver circuit monitors the analog signal to detect the presence of idle information. Upon detecting idle information, the receiver circuit enters a standby mode in which the processing requirements of the receiver circuit are reduced. A burst mode protocol is also provided, in which packets of digital information are modulated by a transmitter circuit the modem, thereby converting the packets of digital information into analog signal bursts of discrete duration. These analog signal bursts are transmitted from the transmitter circuit to a telephone line. However, the transmitter circuit does not generate any signals between the analog signal bursts. A receiver circuit monitors the telephone line to detect the analog signal bursts. Upon detecting the presence of the analog signal bursts on the telephone line, the receiver circuit demodulates the analog signal bursts using full processing capabilities of the receiver circuit. However, upon detecting the absence of the analog signal bursts on the telephone line, the demodulating function of the receiver circuit is disabled. The burst mode protocol enables multi-drop and multi-cast operation, as well as reducing required DSP resources.02-19-2009

20090060168NETWORK INTERFACE - A network interface device (NID) and associated printed circuit board is provided that includes metallic die cast housing and doors configured so that one of the doors, when closed, physically separates service provider circuitry from the customer premise equipment (CPE) side connections on a circuit card within the NID so that an end-customer may access the CPE side connections while the service provider circuitry remains secured from end-customer access. Moreover, the metallic housing provides increased physical strength and tamper resistance, including improved heat dissipation properties to radiate internal heat build-up more efficiently. The NID may be configured to provide insertable interface cards to permit flexibility in service provisioning and includes options for a type-200 T1 module, a type-400 T1 module, a type-200 high bit rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL) module, a type-400 HDSL module or an ISDN module.03-05-2009
20100044064FOUR-WAY GROUND LUG - A ground lug for receiving an electrical wire from multiple directions to be secured within the ground lug, comprising a collar forming a receptacle for receiving an electrical wire, said collar including a first aperture for receiving a screw in an upper surface of the collar, and second and third apertures on first and second side surfaces, respectively, of the collar for receiving electrical wires within the receptacle, a threaded screw located within the first aperture for securing a wire within the receptacle when the threaded screw is tightened, and a tab extending from a lower surface of the collar, the tab including a forth aperture for receiving a screw to mount the ground lug to an electrical device.02-25-2010
20100276315Universal Ear-Bud Holder - An apparatus and method for retaining an ear-bud, said apparatus having a base, first and second sidewalls at opposing ends of the base forming a receptacle, a flexible member stretched around the first and second sidewalls of the base, wherein the flexible member forms a band that stretches and contracts to enable the apparatus to retain ear-buds having various configurations. The sidewalls are preferably attached to a portion of the periphery of the base, which is preferably an elongated, flat platform. The flexible member forms a band that is stretched around the sidewalls, wherein a portion of the flexible band is not connected to the sidewalls and is capable of expanding and contracting so as to receive and retain an ear-bud placed within the receptacle.11-04-2010
20110099777Earring Clasp Having Flexible Member - An clasp for securing to the post of an earring including a torsion spring having extended ends forming a first and a second arm, said first and second arms forming an acute angle, said torsion spring forming a receptacle, a flexible member at least partially located within the receptacle, and said flexible member including an aperture for receiving an earring post. The flexible member includes a channel on at least a portion of a periphery of the flexible member for receiving the torsion spring and retaining the flexible member within the receptacle.05-05-2011

20090204278SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING A WIRELESS-BASED COMMUNICATION LINK BETWEEN A PAIR OF LOCOMOTIVES - A system is provided for establishing a wireless-based communication link between a lead locomotive and a remote locomotive. A user on the lead locomotive is prompted to input a railroad and number identifier of the remote locomotive. A link command signal is transmitted from the lead locomotive, based on a predetermined number identifier of the lead locomotive, and the inputted railroad and number identifier. A second processor on the remote locomotive respectively compares the predetermined number identifier of the lead locomotive, the inputted railroad and number identifier of the lead locomotive, with an inputted number identifier of the lead locomotive, a predetermined railroad and a predetermined number identifier of the remote locomotive. A link reply signal, is transmitted from the remote locomotive, based on the comparison performed by the second processor, to establish the communication link. Additionally, a method is provided for establishing the wireless-based communication link.08-13-2009

20100030409SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BRAKING SYSTEM CONTROL IN DISTRIBUTED POWER VEHICLES - A brake control system for a distributed power vehicle system includes a brake system and a distributed power control system in a first vehicle, and first and second separate communication links between the brake system and the distributed power control system. In operation, upon the initiation of a penalty brake application, the brake system transmits information about the brake level of the penalty brake application to the distributed power control system, over at least the first communication link. However, if the first communication link fails, the brake system redundantly transmits the information about the level of the penalty brake application to the distributed power control system over the second communication link. The information is transmitted from the distributed power control system in the first vehicle to remote vehicles for carrying out the penalty brake application.02-04-2010
