摘要:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for performing line qualification tests, and binning the results of such testing. The lines are tested to determine or estimate various characteristics of the line. Physical characteristics of the line may be estimated (e.g. line length, line gauge, insertion loss). The presence of devices on the line such as load coils, bridged taps, terminations and the like may also be determined. A prediction of the data rate the loop can support is made from the measured and estimated line conditions. The results are binned according to certain criteria and to provide an easily discernable status of the line. The binning can be performed by a computer using software designed specifically for this purpose. The binned results may include a first category indicating the line cannot support a certain level of high speed access. The binned results may also include a second category indicating the line can support a certain level of high speed access. The results may also include a third category indicating the line cannot currently support a certain level of high speed access but would be able to upon removal of an impediment. A fourth category indicating the characteristics of the selected line fall outside the area of coverage of the test system may also be included. Each category may be assigned a respective color in order to make the status of the line easily discernable. The testing and binning may be performed for a variety of different high speed access levels. Customers can be charged different rates dependent upon the level of service made available to them.
摘要:
To allocate telecommunication channels of different channel capacity, e.g. the ISDN D channel and DECT channels to one another (e.g. simulation of the ISDN channel structure by the DECT channel structure) with good (economic) utilization of the bandwidth and minimum technical complexity in a hybrid telecommunication system, particularly an “ISDN DECT-specific RLL/WLL” system, a DECT-specific Cs channel and a DECT-specific Cf channel are used in dependence on the amount of information transmitted on the ISDN D channel for transmitting information in the hybrid telecommunication system.

A method and apparatus for processing at a remote workstation, data files that are compressed and collected into groups on a local area network at a central location. The files of a group are transferred to the workstation over an ISDN switched telephone network in response to an automatic requests from the workstations. The workstation requests depend on the inventory of unprocessed files at the workstation as well as the time and date, in order to reduce the connection time. When files are received at the workstation the first is immediately decompressed and presented to the operator. In the meantime the next file which the operated is expected to need is decompressed in the background and is ready for processing as soon as the operator finishes with the first. When the operator switches to the next file the processing results are automatically saved and a further file is decompressed an held in a que for the operator.

One, or more, ISDN interfaces have their reach extended without violating ISDN interface standards by a method which converts ISDN coded information which is to be delivered over an extended channel into binary coded data prior to transmission, transmitting the binary coded information to a receiver at an extended location and there, after storage, and assembly, converting the binary coded data into ISDN specific coded data for delivery to an ISDN interface.
摘要:
A low-cost implementation of a voice message system is indicated. To that end, a digital signal processor (DSP) and a second memory (ROM) with program modules for executing the functions of "automatic operator" and/or "mailbox" are integrated in a digital telephone (TE4). In addition, the digital telephone (TE4) is able to execute an "individual messages" function, whereby a message intended only for another telephone (TEA) is transmitted to this other telephone (TEA) by means of the digital telephone (TE4).

摘要:
A method and apparatus for using switched telecommunications services to emulate a local area network (LAN) medium. The method and apparatus convert a public switched network or an equivalent private network into a LAN cabling method for connecting distant devices using the same communications software as used in traditionally wired LANs.

A method and apparatus for user data traffic handling for an EVDO enabled hybrid mode mobile device, the method having the steps of: blocking a system selection at the mobile device until no EVDO traffic state exists, the blocking step includes either monitoring whether a user changes a scan mode on the mobile device; and if the user changes the scan mode, checking whether the mobile device is in an EVDO traffic state; and if yes delaying a system selection until the EVDO traffic state is ended, or monitoring whether a user is in an EVDO traffic state, and if yes, preventing a user from accessing a scan mode menu on the mobile device.
摘要:
Method and apparatus are provided for re-synchronizing a group of B channels in an ISDN network using the BONDING Mode 1 specification. Re-synchronization is achieved without the need to first disconnect the affected group of B channels from the network. Thus, the reliability of the bonded channels is improved while maintaining a simpler architecture than those associated with BONDING Modes 2 and 3. The solution offers improved channel reliability, improved network performance and reduced network load when channel re-synchronization becomes necessary.
