  • Patent number: 6452566
    Abstract: An antenna construction for a wireless telephonic communications system has a body member including a sleeve-like wall of dielectric material and integral antenna elements. The sleeve-like wall is fitted over a projecting element of an existing structure, such as the top portion of an existing utility pole, to present an aesthetically unobtrusive arrangement on the existing structure. In the preferred construction, the dielectric material is provided in the form of an elongate ribbon-like substrate which, together with the integral antenna elements, is wrapped upon itself to establish the sleeve-like wall.

  • Patent number: 6405056
    Abstract: A compact modular wireless telephone includes a base unit, a headset selectively connected to and disconnected from the base unit, and a separate card for placement in the base unit to enable telephonic communication. The card includes an identifier for providing a signal identifying a dedicated service account, an interfacer for interfacing the telephone with a service provider for authorization of a telephonic communication, and a selector for placing an authorized telephonic communication, upon interfacing the telephone with the service provider and gaining authorization for the telephonic communication. Telephonic communications are authorized on the basis of the amount of airtime made available in the dedicated service account represented by the card, and the mode of operation of the telephone indicated in the dedicated service account.

  • Patent number: 6351629
    Abstract: A compact modular wireless telephone includes a telephonic module having a compact body member within which there is integrated basic wireless telephonic circuitry, and a remote modular arrangement having at least an earphone for connection to the telephonic module through an elongate cable which places the earphone at a remote location relative to the body member of the telephonic module. In addition to the earphone, the remote modular arrangement can include a microphone and a power source, both of which are removed from the body member to the remote modular arrangement. A loop antenna can be incorporated into the body member so that manipulation of the telephonic module will optimize reception of a wireless telephonic signal without disturbing the placement of the earphone at the ear of a user of the wireless telephone.
