    摘要: A peer device (132) is arranged and programmed for handling a transaction at a point of sale provided by a merchant, and a personal presence identifier (122) is carried by a user and coupled to the peer device by a short-range two-way wireless link. The peer device and the personal presence identifier are arranged and programmed to establish a two-way personal area network (22) with one another when the personal presence identifier is within wireless transmission range of the peer device. The personal presence identifier and the peer device are also arranged and programmed to exchange needs specifications (70) and capability specifications (72) with one another after establishing the two-way personal area network.

    摘要: An entryway system includes a door entry system (130) located near an entry door (320), and a personal presence identifier (122) carried by a guest and coupled to the door entry system by a short-range wireless link (26). The door entry system and the personal presence identifier are arranged and programmed to establish a personal area network with one another when the personal presence identifier is within wireless transmission range of the door entry system. The door entry system is also programmed to determine (80) whether further communications with the personal presence identifier are authorized. The personal presence identifier and the door entry system are also arranged and programmed to exchange (82) needs specifications and capability specifications with one another after the door entry system has determined that further communications with the personal presence identifier are authorized.

    摘要: A system for encapsulating ATM cells into larger data packets to be transmitted through a broadband communications system includes an ATM cell receiver (410), a data packet formatter (430), a buffer (434), and a data packet formatter controller (438). The ATM cell receiver (410) receives ATM cells and sends them to the buffer (434) which is included within the data packet formatter (430). Data packet formatter controller (438) controls the insertion of ATM cells into the buffer (434), and also optionally compresses the ATM cells to increase the apparent bandwidth of the system.

    摘要: A circuit and method for personalizing an electronic device (20) through a personal area network (22). Electron devices (20) have transceivers (38) for transmitting a self-initiated message that includes an identification code of the electronic device. Transceivers (38) are also capable of receiving a self-initiated message sent from other electronic devices. The received message causes a response message to be transmitted in response to the identification code in the self-initiated message. Communication between two electron devices (20′ and 20″) is established when the devices are determined to be compatible. The application of the electronic device is configured based on the response message and data is displayed by the electronic device based on the application.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for communicating signaling messages associated with a communication system whereby a network within the communications system is responsible for setting up a signaling path between users of the communication system. However, once that signaling path is established by the network, the users may communicate with each other whereby the network is not needed to pass data between the users thereby substantially decreasing demand on the network and freeing it for other system functions.
