Patent number: 9826430Abstract: A computing device, which is associated with a telecommunication access network, is configured to detect (i) congestion in uplink traffic from a plurality of user equipments (UEs) to a base station (BS), and (ii) a level of the congestion in the uplink traffic from the plurality of UEs to the BS. The computing device is further configured to modify a network or UE setting to generate a modified setting, and transmit the modified setting to a first UE of the plurality of UEs, to facilitate the first UE to transmit to the BS in accordance with the modified setting. In an embodiment, the computing device is the BS.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2012Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Pablo Tapia, Carl Craig Williams

Publication number: 20120323638Abstract: A production system includes an information handling system (IHS) having a carrier capacity prediction tool that receives a customer order that may include packaging and carrier requirements. The carrier capacity prediction tool partitions the customer order into work units. The carrier capacity tool determines work unit carrier capacity requirements from historical data that a volumetric weight database stores. If the volumetric weight database does not include sufficient historical information to determine carrier capacity requirements, the carrier capacity tool predicts carrier capacity requirements from best fit or actual packaging data during final packaging of customer goods for shipment. The carrier capacity tool sums all work unit packaging and volumetric weight data for each customer order to generate an aggregate of the total carrier capacity needs for a particular time period for production system shipping.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2011Publication date: December 20, 2012Applicant: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Ivory Wellman Knipfer, Carl Craig Meier, Dale William Petersilka, Matthew H. Zemke

Publication number: 20110257812Abstract: One or more tracked vehicles with wireless broadband connectivity to a central tracking station provide redundant location data derived from an onboard GPS receiver and an onboard self-triangulating cell phone. Tracking data for bar-coded and RFID-tagged items with the vehicle are also tracked. Clandestine audio monitoring of the vehicle interior and exterior can be enabled from the tracking station or from a remote access device. Redundant rollover sensing and reporting is provided by a roll over switch and a cell phone loss of signal. Hardwired and proximity vehicle panic alarms communicate with the central tracking station. A remote engine kill is provided. A tracking server within the tracking station stores data and generates reports and alarms. HF radio and cell phone communication between the tracking station and the vehicle are also enabled.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2010Publication date: October 20, 2011Applicant: DD&C TRADING COMPANY LLCInventors: Carl Craig Carpenter, Dennis Charles Chalker, Wellington Taylor Leonard

Patent number: 6682681Abstract: An encapsulated transformer includes a transformer coil assembly, a rigid core insert having an upstanding portion positioned within the hollow interior of the core and a base portion on which the core rests, and a thermoplastic rubber jacket that completely surrounds the transformer coil assembly and is bonded to the base portion of the core insert to provide a completely waterproof encapsulated transformer which is impervious to liquid and gasses that could be detrimental to the performance of the transformer. A method for producing such an encapsulated transformer includes placing a rigid core insert in a mold cavity of a mold, and positioning a transformer coil assembly in the mold cavity so that the transformer coil assembly rests on the core insert. Thermoplastic rubber is then injected into the mold cavity to completely encapsulate the transformer coil assembly in a jacket of thermoplastic rubber.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1995Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Cooper Industries, Inc.Inventors: William A. Clark, Carl Craig Strickland, Jr., Mark Christopher Newman
