  • Patent number: 7315735
    Abstract: A location detection system for locating a mobile device placing an emergency 911 call within a facility having a distributed antenna system. The location detection system includes one or more detection units located within the distributed antenna system and being associated with one or more antennas. Each detection unit monitors a dedicated emergency 911 channel for activity and alerts a monitor unit if activity is detected. The monitor unit determines the location of the antenna receiving the emergency 911 call based upon the identity of the detection unit.

  • Patent number: 7224170
    Abstract: A method and system for detecting whether an antenna is property connected to a distributed antenna network. The current drawn by the antenna is measured and compared against an expected current draw or reference level. The measured level of current drawn by the antenna is indicative of whether the antenna is properly connected or is disconnected. The comparison results may be used as the basis for creating a status message, which is then communicated to a central monitoring unit for each antenna. The central monitoring unit may generate appropriate alarms in response to a status message indicating a fault condition at a particular antenna.

  • Patent number: 6623077
    Abstract: An electrical actuator for a seat with an inclinable back in which irreversibility (or blocking of the mechanism) and efficiency are independent of each other, efficiency being obtained by the use of a reduction gear with straight gear wheels (8), and irreversibility being obtained by a current release blocking device (7) mounted in parallel on an electric motor (5) and energized by the same control device (9) as the motor.
