  • Patent number: 9992724
    Abstract: A mobile vehicle communications system adapted to perform a method of cellular reselection using vehicle telematics unit coupled to a vehicle antenna. The method includes: performing a measurement of a reference signal from a serving cell that is connected to the telematics unit; determining whether to perform a measurement of a target cell based on both a serving cell signal strength value (Srxlev) and a measured serving cell signal quality value (Qqualmeas); and when the measurement of the target cell is performed, then determining whether to reselect to the target cell based on cell selection values of the serving and target cells.

  • Publication number: 20020169978
    Abstract: A computer having a main board provided with a BIOS-ROM for booting the computer and a CPU. A removable storage unit having a casing, a readable and writable memory accommodated in the casing and having a data storing part and a code storing part, and a plug provided at the casing for transmitting data to/from the memory to the computer. The computer also having an interface part provided at the main board and to which the plug of the removable storage unit is removably connected; and a controller controlling the booting of the computer when a user code output from the code storing part and received through the interface part is equal to a unit code stored in the BIOS-ROM. With this configuration, the present invention provides both security and additional storage to the computer.
