    摘要: An adapter for use with a conventional POS card reader to interface with PDA's, Wireless Phones, and other Handheld devices, through Infrared or RF media, such that signals received from the devices can be converted to conventional magnetic stripe and/or smart card format, as required by the conventional POS card readers. The adapter includes a housing, including at least a reader-insertable portion capable of being inserted in the card reader, a receive circuit in the housing, a processor in the housing connected to the receive circuit; and a point of sale interface in the reader insertable portion of the housing and connected to the processor. The housing may be approximately the size of a conventional credit card and may be fully reader-insertable.

    摘要: A universal electronic transaction card ("UET card") is capable of serving as a number of different credit cards, bank cards, identification cards, employee cards, medical cards and the like. The UET card includes information storage elements, an input interface, a processor, a display, and a communications interface. In a preferred embodiment, the display is a touch-sensitive display which provides the user with a number of graphical images which enable the user to selectively chose the type of "credit card" to use for a transaction, and to then choose a particular credit card to use with the transaction. After the choice is made, a graphic image appears on the display which looks like the face of a plastic credit card, including the account number, the user's name, the name of the credit card company and its logo. Thereafter, the user presents the UET card to the point of sales terminal for a sales transaction. After proper verification with the main computer of the service provider, the sales transaction information is transferred and stored in the UET card by the point of sales terminal to eliminate paper receipts and facilitate future storage, verification and analysis for billing, budgeting and financial management and using a home or office personal computer or other facilities. The invention also includes methods of issuing account authorization to a UET card, a method of transferring transactional and account information between a UET card and a personal computer or mainframe computer, a method of using the UET card as a remote terminal for a mainframe computer, and a method of conducting an electronic transaction.

    摘要: An improvement is disclosed for telecommunication PCM time division multiplex switching systems of the type having voice access ports, each with a voice path and a signalling path, and having PCM signalling and voice transmit buses to carry information to a switching network. From the network, PCM voice receive buses carry switched voice information to be demultiplexed, converted to analog form and connected to the voice port. A signalling bus carries information from the switching network to registers. The system is improved to enable it to switch data as well as voice information. A data port is provided to accompany each voice port, and the improved system includes means for multiplexing input data at the port and inserting it on the signalling transmit bus once the signalling portion of a call is completed. A receive data bus connects the signalling receive bus to means for demultiplexing data and presenting it to receive data ports. In a system where signalling and voice bits are synchronized on the transmit buses and the bits are switched together at a common location in switching network memory, the voice and data bits are likewise switched together to a common destination.

    摘要: A method and means for providing a remote data station with access to the program memory of a stored program common control telecommunications switching system. The control complex has an input/output port and a modem for interfacing that port with its switching network. The control has the capability of setting up connections in the network between the modem and a selected trunk. Incoming connections to the modem are given only limited access to the stored program control, that access for the purpose of analyzing incoming data to detect a predetermined code. In the event the predetermined code is detected, the incoming connection is taken down, and an outgoing connection established to a distant station by dialing the number of an authorized station which is stored in the program memory. Full access to the program memory is then allowed, such that full access is provided only to stations whose telephone numbers are stored in the memory of the switching exchange.
