  • Patent number: 8836590
    Abstract: An antenna array for a body panel of a locomotive is described having a base support including at least a pair of elongated parallel structures forming a channel on the body panel of the locomotive cab. A plurality of removable plates are affixed to the elongated parallel structures for mounting an antenna on each of the removable plates, thereby allowing wiring from each antenna to extend from its respective removable plate through the channel formed by the base support. A junction box situated near the base support forms an enclosure about an aperture formed in the body panel of the locomotive. The junction box includes a plurality of interconnects for connecting wiring of each antenna to wiring of a device in the locomotive. In one embodiment, the junction box is integral to the base support. The integral junction box, base support arrangement may further include a lip formed about its periphery in which a cover mounted thereon.

  • Publication number: 20060155668
    Abstract: A system and related techniques provide an integrated platform for privacy management of electronic medical records, encompassing the entire life cycle of privacy management including the capture of patient consents and other privacy status information, request management to receive and filter requests by health insurance companies and others, publishing management and release management of the contents of the electronic medical record. According to embodiments of the invention in one regard, various modules and logic may directly access the patient EMR and extract appropriate segments of information called for by validated requests, to publish that information as well as record or log that access history. The invention may thus provide an integrated tool to document compliance with HIPAA and other regulatory requirements.
