| 4643521 | Plural-channel optical rotary joint An optical rotary joint has a first pair of light beam expanding graded index (GRIN) of refraction lenses coupled to ends of a first pair of lightguide fibers for coupling signals through the rotary joint interface in a first path which is coaxial with th... | 02/17/1987 |
| 4558272 | Current characteristic shaper First and second transistor current sources of complementary conductivity types are connected in series with an output connection between them in the series connection. Input signals control the conduction level of one of the sources so that it diverts co... | 12/10/1985 |
| 4523162 | Microwave circuit device and method for fabrication Microwave devices are fabricated by a method wherein a block of dielectric material is conformed to the physical configuration of a required microwave device, and it is then coated with electrically conductive material. Portions of the coating material ar... | 06/11/1985 |
| 4291198 | General-purpose electronic telephone station set The power of computer-based services is made available to telephone subscribers by a telephone station set (10) including a telephone handset (17) for audio transduction, a video output display screen (13) and manual input key facilities (16,20,23) couple... | 09/22/1981 |
| 4249181 | Cellular mobile radiotelephone system using tilted antenna radiation patterns In cellular mobile radiotelephone systems employing reuse of a predetermined set of channels in adjacent iterations of a pattern of cells (FIG. 1), average signal-to-interference ratio in at least one cell region of interest is improved by tilting the ant... | 02/03/1981 |
| 4229620 | Mobile radiotelephone station two-way ranging system Some cellular mobile radiotelephone systems use tones for certain call connection supervisory functions on radio links. The presence of the correct tone in a received radio channel call signal is determined by using the received signal for producing (32) ... | 10/21/1980 |
| 4229823 | Digital clock phase recovery circuits for data receiver To stabilize the phase of bit rate clock signals recovered from a self-clocking data signal, e.g., a Manchester coded signal, extra signal level transition pulses (58) occurring during intervals of successive bits of the same info bit type are inverted (5... | 10/21/1980 |
