A diplexer includes a first tunable bandpass filter connected to a first port, a second tunable bandpass filter connected to a second port, and a coupling element for coupling the first bandpass filter and the second bandpass filter to a third port. Each of the tunable bandpass filters includes a tunable capacitor, wherein a control signal applied to the tunable capacitor controls the transmission characteristic of the filter. The tunable capacitor can be a tunable dielectric varactor or a microelectromechanical variable capacitor. The coupling element can include one of: a circulator, a T-junction, and an orthomode transducer. Each of the first and second filters can comprise a fin line filter including a plurality of tunable dielectric capacitors mounted within a waveguide for controlling the filter transmission characteristics. Fixed bandpass filters can be inserted between each of the tunable bandpass filters and the coupling element.

709227, 709228, 709229
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for providing asynchronous communication between a source processor and a destination processor. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an information request; making a first call to the destination processor, such that the first call includes the information request; and ending the first call while the destination processor determines an information response, such that said ending terminates a synchronous communication between the source processor and the destination processor. Furthermore, the method includes making a second call to the source processor, such that the second call includes the information response; ending the second call, such that said ending terminates a synchronous communication between the destination processor and the source processor; and providing asynchronously the information response.

Abstract:
A system and method for increasing capacity of a cellular system by reducing call overhead processing and transmission congestion previously required in updating a subscriber's mobile station data position as the subscriber moves among locations within a geographic area served by a network service provider is presented. A predetermined N number of copies of mobile station subscriber data is distributed among multiple Visiting Location Registers (VLRs) within the area served by a cellular system. Unlike previous systems, when mobile stations traverse location boundaries, the current VLR corresponding to the current location does not need to update the subscriber data if that data has not changed since the subscriber was last in that location.
