Matthew J. Sherman - Succasunna NJ, US
Jeevan P. Dodley - Parsippany NJ, US

Assignee:

AT&T Corp. - New York NY

International Classification:

H04J014/00

US Classification:

398 51, 398 54, 398 55, 398 56

Abstract:

An architecture for facilitating wavelength-specific and packet-switched routing comprises a primary metropolitan fiber ring, a primary distribution/aggregation node in the primary metropolitan fiber ring and a local service domain further comprising a secondary aggregation node in communication with the primary distribution/aggregation node. A network to provide local metropolitan switching and routing and broadband local access distribution described in terms of its component layers comprises a distribution/aggregation routing layer that interfaces with a primary fiber metropolitan ring and a local customer primary distribution/aggregation node via transport branches of a mesh architecture, a local distribution and routing layer that routes specific wavelengths and newly assigned wavelengths to and from a customer's premises and a cross-connect layer that handles customer specific wavelength and packet routing via one of fiber, millimeter wave radio and free space optical communications.

US Classification:

398 51, 398 54, 398 55, 398 56, 398166

Abstract:

A method for facilitating wavelength-specific and packet-switched routing comprises the steps of demultiplexing wavelengths propagating on a primary metropolitan fiber ring, determining a destination address for the wavelength, accessing a look-up table, determining if the destination address matches a local address contained in the look-up table and switching the wavelength based on a result of the determining step. A method for providing local metropolitan switching and routing and broadband local access distribution described in terms of the functions of the layers comprises the steps of interfacing with a primary fiber metropolitan ring and a local customer primary distribution/aggregation node via transport bran ches of a mesh architecture, routing specific wavelengths and newly assigned wavelengths to and from a customer's premises and handling customer specific wavelength and packet routing via one of fiber, millimeter wave radio and free space optical communications.

US Classification:

301 361

Abstract:

A dual wheel assembly for a vehicle having a common hub adapter. The assembly includes an inner wheel having an inner rim; an outer wheel having an outer rim; and a hub portion having a central cylindrical portion disposed between first and second end face portions, wherein the inner rim is mounted to the first end portion, and the outer rim is mounted to the second end face portion. The assembly may further include radially spaced apart holes disposed on the central cylindrical portion, wherein the spaced apart holes have end openings on opposite sides thereof and first and second fasteners extending in opposite directions in an alternating arrangement from the first and second end portions of the hub portion. Each of the first fasteners extends through an end opening of a spaced apart hole and the inner rim, and each of the second fasteners extends through an end opening of a spaced apart hole and the outer rim.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/08

US Classification:

705 263

Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for updating an auction monitor display with highlighting or emphasis in the form of graphic data change indicators. The method commences by capturing a first set of auction variables, the auction variables pertaining to an ecommerce auction involving a plurality of auction participants in the ecommerce auction. Then, for ongoing real-time display, the method introduces a delay of a variable duration of time, the variable duration of time based on the length of time before the end of the auction. At various points within each delay period, the method captures a second set of auction variables which are compared to the first set of auction variables to identify a candidate set of changed auction variables for emphasis. The determination of the manner of emphasis is based on the changed auction variable and characteristics of the type of change of the changed auction variable.

Appl. No.:

8/953020

Inventors:

Matthew J. Sherman - North Arlington NJ

Assignee:

AT&T Corp. - New York NY

International Classification:

H04B 7216

US Classification:

370320

Abstract:

A method and system of forming communication links in a satellite communications system. The satellite communications system includes a plurality of transmitter groups, a satellite and a plurality of downlink receivers. Each transmitter is associated with only one transmitter group. At least two transmitters of two separate transmitter groups are disposed geographically adjacent to each other. Each transmitter of a transmitter group transmits an uplink communications signal that is a CDMA signal having a predetermined code that is selected from a code set assigned to the group of transmitters with which the transmitter is associated. Each respective code set is different from other code sets associated with selected groups of transmitters and forms a code set pattern that repeats. The satellite receives the uplink communications signals transmitted by the transmitters and transmits each of the received uplink communications signals as a downlink communications signal directed to a different receiver of the plurality of downlink receivers, such that each downlink communications signal includes no more than one downlink communications signal having a predetermined code such that no substantial multipath conditions exist.

International Classification:

G01S 502

US Classification:

455 63

Abstract:

In an environment of competing satellite systems having in part shared bands/channel frequencies and at least one system having non-interfering dedicated bands/channels, interference between shared bands/channels of the two systems is mitigated by a method as recited in the appended claims, interference probabilities are determined and based on these probabilities and interference criteria to be met. Interference is minimized by making initial channel assignments to dedicated channels and assigning shared channels in accordance with traffic controls and limits are developed so as not to violate the interference criteria.
