Patent number: 8849191Abstract: A mobile communication system employs moving base stations moving in the direction of flow of traffic moving along a roadway. The moving base station communicates with fixed radio ports connected to a gateway office. A plurality of moving base stations are spaced apart on a closed loop and move with the flow of traffic along one roadway on one leg of the loop and with a flow of traffic on another roadway in another leg of the loop. The moving base stations communicate with a plurality of fixed radio ports connected by a signal transmission link to a gateway office which, in turn, is connected to the wire line network. The moving base stations are each provided with a pair of directional antennas with one antenna directed toward the flow of traffic and another antenna directed to the fixed radio ports.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2014Date of Patent: September 30, 2014Assignee: Carucel Investments, L.P.Inventor: Charles D.

Publication number: 20080132241Abstract: A server (502) that is participating in a communication session with a mobile device (400) determines (101) that this mobile device has need for a given amount of bandwidth in service of a given communication session while moving with respect to a plurality of wireless access points to a particular geographic destination. Upon then automatically determining (102) a path by which this mobile device will likely move to that destination this server can then use this path information to dynamically schedule support (103) (by at least some of the plurality of wireless access points) for that communication session while also providing at least the given amount of bandwidth. So configured, this communication session can remain fully and substantially continuously serviced by various ones of the wireless access points with at least the given amount of bandwidth as the mobile device moves to the target geographic destination.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2006Publication date: June 5, 2008Applicant: MOTOROLA, INC.Inventors: Paul R.

Publication number: 20080132235Abstract: A server automatically determines a path by which a mobile device will likely move to a particular geographic destination and service times during which this particular mobile device will likely receive service with respect to this communication session at various ones of a plurality of wireless access points. This server can then provide a plurality of one-time passwords and use this path and service time information to dynamically schedule support (by at least some of the plurality of wireless access points) for that given communication session. Moreover, pursuant to these teachings, this server can pre-provision at least one of the one-time passwords to a given one of the wireless access points prior to an anticipated handoff to thereby facilitate rapid authentication of that mobile device with respect to later effecting the handoff, wherein the one-time password has a corresponding effective time interval associated therewith.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2007Publication date: June 5, 2008Applicant: MOTOROLA, INC.Inventors: Paul R.

Publication number: 20080133431Abstract: A network server (200) (prior to initiation of a communication session by a particular mobile device (205), which mobile device will be moving from a first location to a second location and thereby traversing heterogeneous network communication resources (204)) is able to automatically determine (103) a monetary cost associated with supporting a communication service using heterogeneous network communication resources as that mobile device moves from a first location to a second location. By one approach, this can comprise, at least in part, automatically determining (102) a sequence of usage of the heterogeneous network communication resources by which the communication session can be supported as the mobile device moves from the first to the second location (in which case, if desired, the step of determining the monetary cost can be made, at least in part, as a function of that sequence of usage).Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2007Publication date: June 5, 2008Applicant: MOTOROLA, INC.Inventors: Paul R.

Publication number: 20040209606Abstract: A preliminary answer message is transmitted to a calling device placing a call to a wireless device of a called party where the preliminary answer message indicates that the call has been accepted and the calling party will engage in communication after a period of time. When the calling party is alerted of the incoming call and can not currently speak, the calling party initiates the preliminary answer process through a user input on the wireless device. In response, the preliminary answer message, which may be a recorded voice message, is transmitted to the calling device and presented to the calling party.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2003Publication date: October 21, 2004Inventors: James P.

Patent number: 5771229Abstract: The system operates in a wireless communication system (200) which has a plurality of wireless communication channels (501, 502) controlled by a switching center (212) and the system includes an intelligent peripheral (30) in communication with the switching center (212) and an inverse multiplexer (38) responsive to the intelligent peripheral (30). The inverse multiplexer (38) separates a broadband communication signal (100) into a plurality of portions (301, 302) and the intelligent peripheral (30) causes the switching center (212) to transmit a first portion (301) of the broadband communication signal (100) over a first wireless communication channel (501) and to transmit a second portion of the broadband communication signal (302) over a second wireless communication channel (502). The switching center (212) controls the first wireless communication channel (501) independently of the second wireless communication channel (502).Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 1997Date of Patent: June 23, 1998Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventor: Charles D.
