Enhanced emergency service for ISDN based emergency services in a wireless telecommunications system
Patent number: 6256489Abstract: The system of the invention passes wireless caller location information through the common channel signaling network (CCSN) to the PSAP such that the PSAP can provide enhanced emergency services. The caller location information such as the latitude and longitude of the wireless device or the cell and cell sector from which a call is made is encoded in the ISUP (ISDN User Part) of the call set up message over the CCSN. The public switched network routes the call based on the called party number (CDPN) parameter to the appropriate selective router and the selective router routes the call to the appropriate PSAP based on the caller location. The caller location information is transmitted over an ISDN interface to the PSAP. The PSAP can then access additional caller information based on the CDPN parameter to provide enhanced emergency services. Thus, the system of the invention allows enhanced 9-1-1 service to be provided in wireless systems while utilizing existing wireless infrastructure and protocols.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 1997Date of Patent: July 3, 2001Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Joseph James Lichter, Michael Joseph Meyer, Ted Moulos -
Patent number: 6195688Abstract: A computer system, program product, and method of communicating internetworking data over a master-slave communication link utilize a device driver in a workstation coupled to a multi-drop master-slave communication link to forward internetwork datagrams to the network interface of the workstation in a format defined by an internetworking protocol in response to receipt thereof of data segments transmitted over the master-slave communication link that are encapsulated in a header native to the multi-drop master-slave communication link. A host computer coupled to the workstation over the multi-drop master-slave communication link maps the hardware address of the workstation to a network address consistent with the internetworking protocol, and initiates a communication session with the workstation using this mapped network address so that the network interface of the workstation can recognize the network address as its assigned address.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 1998Date of Patent: February 27, 2001Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Joseph Alan Caldwell, Gary Alan Diehl, Arthur Joseph Meyer, III, Marion Alston Pitts, Charles William Price, II

Patent number: 6178695Abstract: A convertible window system having two window sashes, a weatherstripping, and a tilt pivot assembly. The window system can be readily switched between single-hung and double-hung configuration. The weatherstripping assembly, which is operatively connected to each of the two sashes, has a number of regions. Each of these regions has different attributes which determine the types of translations and rotations that can be performed on a sash with a predetermined force. In a preferred embodiment, an upper sash can be removed from a window frame by the application of a predetermined force on the top of the sash while the sash is within a predetermined range of the weatherstripping assembly without the need for withdrawing guide pins from the channel of the weatherstripping assembly.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 1999Date of Patent: January 30, 2001Assignee: Carolina Builders, Inc.Inventors: David Leslie Kornegay, Charles Lee Allen, James Edward Jordan, Alex Stephen Long, Karl Joseph Meyer, Jr., Barry Ray Williams
