  • Patent number: 7979551
    Abstract: Systems, products, and methods are disclosed for performing a method of allocating services (functionalities of software applications) across several computing devices that make up various domains of a data center so that the functional aspects will continue to be available to remote users even when, from time to time, different sets of computing devices are unavailable.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7895154
    Abstract: Techniques are described which may provide information regarding the end point's reputation, for presentation, or selectively block communications according to user preferences. In an implementation, a request to establish a communication link may include searching a database of reputation data for information regarding at least one of the source's reputation data or the intended receiver's reputation data.

  • Patent number: 6693598
    Abstract: An omni-directional antenna assembly is provided for wireless communication devices requiring multiple polarization characteristics. A loop antenna assembly for a communications device operating at a predetermined wavelength and having a transceiver circuit including a signal output and a ground plane, the antenna assembly including a conductive loop element and a conductive leg member coupled to the loop element proximate a loop perimeter, the leg member for supporting the loop element at a distance away from the ground plane of the communications device, the leg member also defining a ground point and a feed point for operatively coupling the loop element to the ground plane and the signal output, respectively, of the transceiver circuit.

  • Patent number: 6456249
    Abstract: A compact single or multiple band antenna assembly for wireless communications devices. One multi-band embodiment includes a high frequency portion and a low frequency portion, both fed at a common point by a single feed line. Both portions may be formed as a single stamped metal part or metallized plastic part. The overall size is suitable for integration within a wireless device such as a cell phone. The low frequency portion consists of two resonant sections which are stagger tuned to achieve a wide resonant bandwidth, thus allowing greater tolerance for manufacturing variations and temperature than a single resonant section, and is useful for single band antennas as well as multi-band antennas where it may be used to enhance bandwidth for both sections of a dual band antenna as well. The resonant sections for single or multi-band antennas operate in conjunction with a second planar conductor, which may be provided by the ground trace portion of the printed wiring board of a wireless communications device.

  • Patent number: 6429819
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a combination patch antenna element and bowtie-shaped slot antenna element together disposed upon a first major surface of a dielectric element. The bowtie-slot antenna element is defined upon the dielectric element within a boundary of the patch antenna element. The bowtie-slot antenna element defines a first antenna electrical resonance frequency characteristic, and the patch antenna element defines a second antenna electrical resonance frequency characteristic. The combination patch antenna element and bowtie-shaped slot antenna element are provided in relation to a ground plane element, such as provided by a printed wiring board of a wireless communications device. An additional optional feature of the antenna includes a plurality of conductive pattern enhancement elements disposed on an opposite side of the dielectric element.
