Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for establishing a fixed wireless telephone service. A fixed wireless device includes a wireless device for establishing wireless connections to a wireless communications network that interfaces with a public switched telephone network. The fixed wireless device includes a connection that provides telephone service for an ordinary POTS-based telephone, handset, computer, or other communication device. Various techniques are provided for monitoring during use and/or verifying prior to use whether the fixed wireless device remains in an intended fixed location.

Abstract: A self powered caller identification device (CID) for a cellular telephone system (CTS) includes a receiver, a transmitter and a processor, all of which being adapted to provide access to the content of a data channel and to deny access to the voice services of a voice channel. The receiver is responsive to the data signal in the data channel and the processor is responsive to identify the CID to the CTS. The CID answers a call from the CTS in response to the call being a data signal and fails to answer the call in response to an attempted connection to the voice services of the voice channel. A display at the CID is responsive to the processor to display the content of the data signal thereby identifying the caller to the user of the CID.

Abstract: A system (10') for generating a missile guidance gain factor adapted for use with guided missiles. The inventive system includes a guidance control system (52) for obtaining current guidance parameters(55, 57) including ideal navigation gain, closing rate, line of sight rate, missile maneuverability, and missile velocity parameters. Software (56) running on a guidance control processor (54) computes a current guidance gain factor reflective of the current maneuverability of the missile from the guidance parameters (55, 57). In the illustrative embodiment, the system 10' further includes a nonlinear notch circuit (56) that generates an acceleration command (59) from the guidance parameters (55, 57) that varies in response to varying missile maneuverability parameters (57). The guidance control system (10') includes a conventional guidance law computation circuit (54, 55) and electromagnetic sensing equipment (52).

Abstract: A hand controller which includes a hand grip having therein a mechanism for allowing truly linear motion along at least two axes by modifying a four-bar linkage with a second four-bar linkage to counteract any rotational motion that would otherwise occur.
