  • Patent number: 6424818
    Abstract: In a communication system, a communication control apparatus is disposed in a mobile object. The communication control apparatus relays information exchanged between a plurality of radio terminals carried into the mobile object and a network side. The communication control apparatus comprises a communication control server which performs establishment of a radio channel between it and a base station at the network side, and establishment of a radio channel between it and a radio terminal according to a communication request from the radio terminal, and a communication unit which performs a radio communication with the radio terminal and a radio communication with the base station, using each radio channel established by the communication control server.

  • Patent number: 6376559
    Abstract: A process for preparing a dispersing component of an inorganic oxide sol which involves dehydrating an aqueous inorganic oxide sol by adding an azeotropic solvent to the aqueous inorganic sol to form an azeotropic mixture, carrying out azeotropic distillation and then surface-treating the dispersing component of the inorganic oxide sol with a silane coupling agent.

  • Patent number: 6163532
    Abstract: In a communication system across an in-office PC system (10) and an in-enterprise LAN system (20), in order to perform a transmission of packet data from a DDTE (22) on the LAN side to a M-DTE (14) on the personal station side without a need of a provision of complicated means, when receiving packet data addressed to the M-DTE (14) from the DTE (22), a LAN side control unit (23) transmits a connection request including the incoming packet address to a PBX (11) of the in-office PC system (10), the PBX (11) notifies a PS (13) of the incoming signal for the packet address through a CS(12), and on the other hand, the M-DTE (14) connected to the PS (13) acknowledges the incoming signal through the PS (13) and the CS (12) when the packet address which received this notice corresponds to the M-DTE (14), thereby achieving a connection. After the connection, the control unit (23) transmits packet data to the M-DTE (14).

  • Patent number: 6009088
    Abstract: In order for the user to perform a transmission of packet data to a desired communication counterpart on a virtual network across a wireless circuit exchange type network system and a LAN without being bothered by address exchange between an address of a physical network and an address of a virtual network, an exchange (10a) performs an address exchange necessary for establishing a communication channel between the terminal equipments within the system using a conversion table, in a mobile wireless data communication system in which a wireless circuit type network system comprising a wireless mobile station (30a), a wireless connection equipment (20a) and the exchange (10a) is connected to a LAN (40a) through a TA (60a) and a router (50a).

  • Patent number: 4939785
    Abstract: In a radio communication network system for use in carrying out communication with a plurality of radio telephone sets in a service zone by the use of a control channel and a plurality of speech channels, a connecting equipment unit (CE) is selectively operable in cooperation with a radio control unit (RCU) in a speech mode of forming a speech path through a selected one of the speech channels and an additional mode of selectively monitoring the control and the speech channels. The additional mode may be divided into first and second control modes for allowing and rejecting reception of a call with the control channel monitored, respectively. Alternatively, either a rest mode or a combination of rest and initial program loading modes may be added to the additional mode. A plurality of the connecting equipment units may be located in a single service zone and selectively put into the speech and the additional modes with only one of the connecting equipment units kept in the first control mode.
