Abstract: This invention relates to a cellular telecommunications systems that utilizes encryption and employs encrypted seed number signals to make it more difficult to make unauthorized cellular telephone calls.

Abstract: In a single-line telephone, there are a plurality of extension telephone sets connected by a telephone line and each extension telephone set is connected to a communication controlling apparatus. The communication controlling apparatus includes an alternating current coupler and a power supply thus allowing two extension telephone sets to communicate with each other without being disturbed by a busy tone.

Abstract: A simple and inexpensive telephone exclusion or privacy device. A conference feature is and am indicator light showing when the line is in use are also provided. The basic exclusion or privacy circuit includes only eleven components, thereby providing a very low cost device. The circuit includes a diode bridge with a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) connected across the midpoint of the bridge circuit. A resistor in series with the SCR limits the amount of current which the SCR can draw from the telephone line. A Zener diode in series with a resistor is connected between the anode and the gate of the SCR and a resistor in series with a capacitor is connected from the gate of the SCR to the second side of the bridge circuit i.e. to the point where the cathode of the SCR is connected.

Abstract: A ring trip deciding method in a ring trip circuit detects voltage change in the on-hook state and the on-hook state of a terminal when the terminal such as telephone set connected to the telephone line is called.

Abstract: An intercommunication system for transmitting signals through a door, and having piezo transducer devices mountable on each side of the door, a matrix of analog switches connecting the piezo transducer devices to the input and output of a bridge amplifier, and a TALK switching device which controls which piezo transducer device is connected to the bridge amplifier through the analog switches as a speaker or as a microphone.

Abstract: An intercom system for a door and inside stations has a speech function for two-way communication with hands-free operation. The intercom system includes a two-wire connecting lead between the door station and each inside station to transmit a conversation current and an operating current. The intercom system includes a bridge circuit for suppressing feedback, a bipole circuit to decouple conversation currents from a power supply, a calling circuit for calling on the two-wire connecting lead and using a call current of opposite plurality with respect to the operating current, and a short-circuit circuit in each inside station for short-circuiting the corresponding two-wire connecting lead when the corresponding door opening button is actuated.

Abstract: A circuit/device that can be designed into new telephone subsets as well as connected to existing telephones to prevent unwanted telephone extensions from interfering with the controlling extension. The device is operated by a single push-button located on certain or all extensions. When operated from a certain extension, it disconnects all other extensions that are fitted with the same device until such time that either the push-button at the controlling extension is operated again or the telephone is placed "on-hook." The present device has a very simple circuit located at each extension telephone and communicates over an unused yellow wire found in standard 4-wire telephone circuits.
