Filed:

Jan 10, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/757993

Inventors:

Aris L Moustakas - New York NY
Hugo F Safar - Wesfield NJ
Steven H Simon - Hoboken NJ
Marin Stoytchev - Westfield NJ

Assignee:

Lucent Technologies Inc. - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H01Q 2100

US Classification:

343893, 343702

Abstract:

A wireless communication device comprising a signal processing device coupled to a cluster of multiple port antennas that can simultaneously transmit and/or receive communication signals. The cluster of antennas operates within a frequency band having maximum frequency f, and at least a pair of the antenna ports is placed in a volume of space whose longest linear dimension is /3 or less where is equal to c/f. During operation of the antenna cluster, the radiation patterns from different antennas have main lobes that point in different directions and have correlations of 0. 7 or less with respect to each other.

International Classification:

G02B 634

US Classification:

385 37, 385 24, 385123, 385 28, 385 29, 359130

Abstract:

In accordance with the invention, an optical waveguide comprising a longitudinally extending core housing an optical grating and a cladding layer peripherally surrounding the core, is provided with an outer surface of the cladding layer having one or more perturbations. Each perturbation has a height with respect to the core that varies by at least 0. 1 times a Bragg wavelength of the grating over the surface of the perturbation and covers an extent of the outer surface whose linear dimensions are less than 1 cm. The perturbations suppress cladding mode spectra and reduce short wavelength cladding mode loss.

International Classification:

H01Q 2100

US Classification:

343725, 343893, 343700 MS

Abstract:

An integrated K-port antenna where K is an integer equal to 2 or greater and where the antenna is sufficiently small that it can be enclosed by K-1 overlapping spheres each having a diameter of /2 where is equal to c/f and f represents an operating frequency of the antenna.

Inventors:

Aris Leonidas Moustakas - New York City NY
Steven Herbert Simon - Hoboken NJ

Assignee:

Lucent Technologies Inc. - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H04Q 720

US Classification:

455423, 455 6714, 455 6716, 455446, 455506, 702150

Abstract:

Methods of designing, installing and operating communications systems including multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna arrays are disclosed. The methods account for the diffusive nature, the polarization nature, and the multi-path nature of the environment in which the antenna arrays operate. According to the various methods, the antennas can be designed, installed and operated so as to provide improved information capacity based on the diffusive, polarization and multi-path nature of the environment in which they operate.

Appl. No.:

12/269851

Inventors:

Steven H. Simon - Hoboken NJ, US

Assignee:

Alcatel Lucent - Paris

International Classification:

H01L 23/58
H01L 21/66

US Classification:

257 48, 438 17

Abstract:

A device and a method of thermal management. In one embodiment, the device includes an integrated circuit, including: (1) a conductive region configured to be connected to a voltage source, (2) a transistor having a semiconductor channel with a controllable conductivity and (3) first and second conducting leads connecting to respective first and second ends of said channel, wherein a charge in the conductive region is configured to substantially raise an electrical potential energy of conduction charge carriers in the semiconductor channel and portions of said leads are located where an electric field produced by said charge is substantially weaker than near the semiconductor channel.

Assignee:

AT&T Bell Laboratories - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H04M 506

US Classification:

379265

Abstract:

An agent at home (12) is enabled to receive a call from a customer (14), originally directed to a transaction-processing center (16), by first identifying, at an exchange (20) of a public switched telephone network (22), the identity of the transaction-processing center and the agent(s) designated to receive calls directed to that center. Once the agent (12) has been identified, the call is routed from a first local exchange carrier central office (18) serving the customer to a local exchange carrier central office (26) serving the agent and then to the agent across a combined voice and data line (44). Upon receipt of the call, the agent simultaneously establishes a data link with the transaction-processing center so as to complete a transaction for the customer.
