Abstract: An electronic user device includes inclusion list storage with electronically readable memory, for storing an inclusion list and the inclusion list indicating included logical IDs. The device also has a security module app that receives a cellular broadcast message and extracts logical IDs therefrom. This processes a targeted cellular broadcast message embedded in the payload of the cellular broadcast message, based on whether a logical ID, also embedded in the payload, of the targeted cellular broadcast message is on the inclusion list. It then formats it for consumption by an electronic user device app that receives data via a data channel when available.

Abstract: An internet packet comprises a header field, the header field including a field identifying a source address of the internet packet, a field identifying the destination address of the internet packet and a next header field identifying whether an extension header follows the header and a type of the extension header. The extension header indicates a hop-by-hop option header, the hop-by-hop extension header including a router alert option header type indicating that the extension field is optional for a router to read, and a field providing information for a gateway support node of a packet radio system network. A gateway support node is thereby provided with information, which may be required for example to support a mobile internet protocol (IP). However, by providing the router alert option field, a router is not required to read the remainder of the hop-by-hop option field.

Abstract: Methods and systems for network communications are disclosed. In particular methods and systems for providing communications rate controls from remote sources are provided. For example, a machine-implemented method includes: managing, at a target, a request to transmit (R2T) queue and an associated data credit counter; incrementing the data credit counter based on an allowed transfer rate; selecting an R2T packet from the R2T queue; determining if the R2T packet should be sent based on the data credit counter; sending the R2T packet to an initiator when the R2T packet indicates data transfer less than the data credit counter; and decrementing the data credit counter based on the R2T packet when the R2T packet is sent.

Abstract: An axle comprising: a housing including an interior surface defining a first cavity therein; a differential positioned within the first cavity of the housing; a first planetary gear system coupled to the differential and positioned within the first cavity of the housing.

Abstract: A variable position flywheel lock for a rotating engine shaft terminating in a flywheel having plurality of radially spaced slots around the circumference. The flywheel lock includes an elongated base positioned perpendicular to a radius of the flywheel. A body is engaged with the base and is movable vertically toward or away from the base. A top is engaged with the body with the top movable parallel to the base. A toothed device extends from the top and is engageable with the radially spaced slots in the flywheel to hold the flywheel in a desired position and lock it in place.

Abstract: The invention provides a confocal microscope or endoscope, having a source of coherent light for illuminating a sample, and an imaging optical fibre bundle (82) for receiving return light, whereby the fibre bundle (82) provides a return channel for fluorescent return light (78). The optical fibre bundle (82) preferably preserves, between entry and exit ends of the bundle, the relative spatial coordinates of the cores of individual fibres constituting the bundle.

Abstract: A fiber optic bundle for use in contact endoscopy or microscopy, comprising a pointed forward tip for insertion into a specimen, the forward tip having at least a portion that is oriented obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the bundle . The forward tip may be, for example, flat and oblique.

Abstract: A telecommunications system provides a facility for communicating a Short Message Service (SMS) message to a mobile user equipment using a subscriber identity number when the mobile user equipment is communicating via an Internet Protocol network using an Internet Protocol (IP) communication being terminated on the IP network. The system comprises an SMS network including a Short Message Service Centre (SM-SC), a gateway mobile switching centre (GMSC), the SMS network providing a facility for communicating SMS messages, and an Internet Protocol/SMS (IP/SMS) gateway for communicating between the SMS network and the IP network. The system also includes a home location database for maintaining address data identifying a current location of a mobile user equipment. The gateway mobile switching centre is operable in response to the SMS message to interrogate the home location database for an address to which the SMS message should be sent.

Abstract: The present invention provides a confocal endoscope, microscope or endomicroscope including a light source of coherent light for illuminating a sample, a beam splitter and light receiving means, wherein an incident beam of light from the light source is directed onto the beam splitter and hence onto the sample, and light returning from the sample and incident on the beam splitter is deviated or displaced by the beam splitter by a small angle or distance relative to the incident beam, and received by the light receiving means located to receive the returning light and near the light source. The invention also a method for performing confocal endoscopy or microscopy including illuminating a sample by means of an incident or excitatory beam of coherent light, and deviating or displacing light returning from the sample by a small angle or distance relative to the incident beam.

Abstract: A scanning mechanism for an optical probe having an optical head and an optical transmitter for transmitting light from a light source to the optical head, the scanning mechanism comprising a resilient member coupled to the optical transmitter, a fluid supply for providing a fluid to the head, and an exit path for the fluid from the head that has a fluid entry. The resilient member is located at the fluid entry so that fluid flow into the fluid entry passes over a portion of the resilient member and creates a pressure difference across the resilient member such that the resilient member is urged into the fluid entry thereby reducing the fluid flow and reducing the pressure difference, whereby the resilient member and therefore the fiber can be induced to oscillate.
