Simulcast Patents (Class 340/7.26)
  • Patent number: 11689490
    Abstract: Systems and methods for regulating electronic messages transmissions. A message delay system is disposed between one or more first entities and a second entity within at least one network. Electronic messages are received from among at least one the first entities and the second entity at one or more message arrival times. A message delay component applies a delay to each received electronic message, based on a predefined delay time common to all of the first entities and a first entity delay offset associated with a first entity that is associated with the received message. The first entity delay offset is based on a geographical origin of the first entity relative to a geographical origin of the second entity. Each delayed message is transmitted to a designated recipient via the network, where the designated recipient is among the second entity and the first entities.

  • Patent number: 11606187
    Abstract: One embodiment relates to a transmitting device, a receiving device, and the like for preventing increases in the number of communication links, power consumption, and circuit layout area. The transmitting device includes a high-speed signal generator, a low-speed signal generator, and a signal superimposing unit. The high-speed signal generator generates a high-speed signal having a limited frequency band. The low-speed signal generator generates a low-speed signal having a frequency lower than the frequency band of the high-speed signal. The signal superimposing unit outputs a superimposed signal of the high-speed signal and the low-speed signal. The receiving device includes a signal separator and a recovery unit. The signal separator separates the received signal into the high-speed signal and the low-speed signal. The recovery unit performs frequency tracking based on the separated low-speed signal and performs phase tracking based on the separated high-speed signal.

  • Patent number: 9882705
    Abstract: A synchronous frame reception unit receives a synchronous frame describing a reference value for time synchronization with a management apparatus which is transmitted repeatedly from the management apparatus. A propagation delay computation unit computes, each time when the synchronous frame is received, a propagation delay of the synchronous frame. A propagation delay time period computation unit computes, each time when the propagation delay is computed, a propagation delay time period by adding a target value of a synchronous accuracy to the propagation delay. A propagation delays computation unit operates a logical OR operation of M pieces of propagation delay time periods computed for M pieces of synchronous frames which precede a latest synchronous frame.

  • Patent number: 8533612
    Abstract: A user interface for interacting with an emergency notification system. The user interface comprises at least one software module installed on a computer readable medium and containing instructions for operating a computer processor. The instructions comprise first instructions for causing the processor to display on a computing device display an alert selection window configured to receive a user entered alert message; second instructions for causing the processor to display on the computing device display a group selection window configured to receive a user selection of one or more notification units to receive the alert message; and third instructions for causing the processor to display on the computer device display a selection button for instructing the processor, upon selection, to transmit the alert message to the selected one or more notification units.

  • Publication number: 20080070522
    Abstract: The functionality associated with an RDS/RBDS messaging system is enhanced by allowing users of the system access to a secure server which gives them the ability to manage the user address space, to compose custom and preformatted messages and to access CAP files that might contain information affecting users in the area of an FM transmitter sending alert messages. The alert messages are sent to the RDS/RBDS encoder as ODA data groups using a developed protocol. Standard alert radios are modified to utilize the functionality of the system. The system will also send back up alerts to a users cellular telephone and to specified email, SMS and text messaging destinations.

  • Patent number: 6759972
    Abstract: The invention is a method of calling a group of tourists back to their conveyance, in which each passenger is given a portable alerting device when they leave the conveyance. When the conveyance is ready to leave, a transmitter on the conveyance transmits a wireless signal which causes the alerting device to vibrate or give off a light or sound signal, alerting the passenger to return to the conveyance for departure.

  • Publication number: 20040100585
    Abstract: There are provided an analog tuner for receiving analog broadcasting and a digital tuner for receiving digital broadcasting. An EPG decoder extracts EPG data in analog broadcasting, and a demultiplexer extracts EPG data in digital broadcasting. A CPU receives each of the EPG data, to judge whether or not the same program is being broadcast in analog broadcasting and digital broadcasting (whether or not there is simulcast). The CPU produces, when analog broadcasting in simulcast is being received, a message that the same program is being broadcast in digital broadcasting by an OSD circuit and displays the produced message on a screen (a CRT).

  • Patent number: 6462645
    Abstract: A radio selective call receiver and a method of transferring reception areas only when the received frequency/area information of the transfer destination is correct and to conserve battery power. Transfer destination service area information is extracted from a radio signal of a first frequency that is being received, a second frequency corresponding to the area information is determined and the area information and the second frequency are added to an information listing means. If the radio signal including a synchronizing signal and the area information is detected at the second frequency within a time limit, the second frequency is set as the first frequency, and if the radio signal cannot be detected at the second frequency within the time limit, the second frequency and the transfer destination service area information corresponding to this second frequency that were added to the information listing means are deleted.
