Publication number: 20140267461Abstract: An LED-based light engine has a circuit board upon which at least one LED circuit is mounted. A power driver is also mounted on the circuit board. The power driver accepts an AC input power and outputs a DC output power that powers the LED circuit. The circuit board is divided into an LED zone and a driver zone, which are thermally insulated relative to one another so that heat does not flow between the LED and driver zones. Slots are formed through the circuit board between the LED zone and driver zone to further block heat flow between the LED and driver zones.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2014Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: Permlight Products, Inc.Inventors: Kamran Sarmadi, Ismael Lopez

Patent number: 7649862Abstract: The flexible through-connection process, operational in a Mobile Switch Center, that provides support for allowing the call routing processor of the Mobile Switch Center to independently perform a through-connection/switch-connection based on different types of calls so that the Mobile Switch Center can make a through-connection at different stages of the outgoing call leg. In operation, the present flexible through-connection process includes in the call control processor of the switching system a new parameter in the existing inter-process message which is sent to the call routing processor at call setup time. The values supported for this new parameter will be pre-defined in the Mobile Switch Center and used by the call routing processor to determine when to perform through-connection/switch-connection for an outgoing call leg.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2005Date of Patent: January 19, 2010Assignee: Alcatel-Lucent USA Inc.Inventors: Julian Maurico Guio, Jason T.

Patent number: 7236791Abstract: The present invention relates to wireless telephone networks, and more particularly to the allocation of radio channels to calls in CDMA-based systems when their Radio Access Networks (RAN) are congested. A Base Station (BS) receives a call origination from a mobile device. The BS communicates information about the call and about its radio availability to a Mobile Switching Center (MSC). The MSC determines the priority of the call and how the call should be treated by the BS based on the supplied information. The MSC communicates the treatment information and the priority information back to the BS. When the RAN is congested, high-priority calls are queued. These high-priority calls are served based on allocation specification in which radio channels may be assigned to low-priority calls, which are not queued, while there are still calls in the queue.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2005Date of Patent: June 26, 2007Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Michael Dwayne Chambers, Renling Lawrence Huang, Ismael Lopez, Rafael Quintero, Douglas Harvey Riley

Patent number: 6956939Abstract: An apparatus, method and system are provided for message-based intelligent tandeming of an incoming call to an application node in telecommunication systems. The various embodiments utilize a new parameter, referred to as a tandem parameter, to designate whether incoming calls to a particular subscriber are to be tandemed to an application node or are to be delivered directly to the subscriber. The preferred system embodiment includes an adjunct network entity, a database, and a switching center. The adjunct network entity, such as a service circuit node or service control point, has one or more application nodes or platforms, supporting various telecommunication services such as prepaid services, calling party pays services, and one number services. The database, such as a home location register or visitor location register, stores information such as subscriber profiles, and includes storing the tandem parameter.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2000Date of Patent: October 18, 2005Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Richard Robert Boland, Ismael Lopez, Mark Alan McCormick, Diane Marie Russell

Publication number: 20040202298Abstract: The collect call party identification service disclosed enables a service provider to identify a person who makes an assistance-free collect call and to transmit the caller's identity on the called phone regardless of the phone number from which the call is made and before any charges are incurred. The service provider, in a database controlled by the service provider, lists and identifies each person in a defined group with a personal identification number such as his/her phone number, social security number or the like. The Collect Calling Party Identification service is invoked by using a prefix such as *99. A person listed in the service provider's database and having been assigned a personal identification number can make a collect call without the assistance of an operator by dialing *99 plus his/her personal identification number. Upon confirmation from the database that the caller is listed in the database, the caller making the collect call then inputs the number that he/she is attempting to reach.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2000Publication date: October 14, 2004Inventors: Ismael Lopez, Lei Qian

Patent number: 6665532Abstract: A mobile switching center (MSC) in accordance with the principles of the present invention provides access to a subscribers voice message center from the subscriber's roaming mobile station. The MSC is responsive to a “RemoteFeatureRequest” Invocation by the roaming mobile station in which the subscriber's directory number is the same as the dialed digits by routing the call from the mobile station to the subscriber's voice message center. The MSC may also be responsive to a “OriginationRequest” employing the subscriber's directory number as the dialed digits by routing the roaming mobile station's call to the subscriber's voice message center.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 1999Date of Patent: December 16, 2003Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Richard Robert Boland, Patrick Joseph Boyle, Ismael Lopez, Jr., Mark Alan McCormick, Salvatore Suero

Publication number: 20020076021Abstract: This is a service which can be offered by a telephone service provider to enable a caller ID subscriber to now positively determine the identity of a member of a defined group regardless of the phone number from which the call is made. The subscriber-defined group can have a maximum of ten members with assigned numbers from 0 to 9. Specifically, the subscriber can assign a number, i.e., the number 1 to a person such as his/her mother. Now, when the subscriber's mother calls the subscriber, the number of the phone from which the call is made will appear as the caller ID number plus the number 1. Thus, regardless of the phone from which the call is made, be it from a pay phone or a friend's phone, the number 1 will identify the caller as being the subscriber's mother. In another embodiment, a name can be used in place of the number and, therefore, the name Mom can appear instead of the number 1.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2000Publication date: June 20, 2002Inventors: Ismael Lopez, Lei Qian
