Dec 19, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/743514

Inventors:

Camilo Villamil - Pembroke Pines FL, US
Eric Eaton - Lake Worth FL, US
Scott Garrett - Weston FL, US

International Classification:

H04Q007/32

US Classification:

455567000, 455550100

Abstract:

A mobile communication device contains event descriptor files that define certain detectable parameters indicative of the occurrence of an event. When the mobile communication device has determined that an event has occurred, the mobile communication device proceeds to send a status message to a preselected party, indicating to the preselected party that the user of the mobile communication device has experienced the event. A wide variety of events may be described and detected, such as arrival at a particular geographic location. The mobile communication device may prompt the user before sending the status message, and may further require the user to verify the user's identity by an authentication procedure.

International Classification:

H04M 11/04

US Classification:

455404100

Abstract:

A mobile communication system () provides communication service in a plurality of serving cells. Upon the occurrence of an emergency situation, the mobile communication system determines which of the serving cells are affected by the emergency (), and begins broadcasting an emergency notification message in the affected cells. Mobile communication devices in the affected cells will only be allowed to communicate a status message to inform others of the user's status, or if the user is an emergency subscriber, the emergency subscriber will receive regular communication service. All other communication service requests will be ignored during the emergency situation.

International Classification:

H04B 17/00

US Classification:

455067110, 455556100, 455073000

Abstract:

A mobile communication device () is attached to an audio accessory () and characterizes the audio response of the audio accessory. Upon detecting attachment to the mobile communication device (), the mobile communication device plays an audio test regimen over the speaker of the audio accessory (). Once the audio accessory's spectral response is known, the mobile communication device may adjust audio processing filter coefficients used in processing audio signals played over the audio accessory.

International Classification:

H01M 1046

US Classification:

320 30

Abstract:

A device (111) for simulating a high battery temperature used in charging a rechargeable cell (101). The device takes advantage of a control signal generated by a voltage control circuit (103) used to disconnect a rechargeable cell (101) from a charging system (105) when a predetermined voltage is reached. The device (111) is generally used with cells having a lithium based chemistry and requiring a different charging regime then nickel chemistry cells. The device (111) is activated by the control signal from control circuit (103) which detects a predetermined voltage from rechargeable cell (101) enabling thermistor (113) to change its state. This change is detected by the charging system (105) which alters its mode of operation from a rapid charging rate to a slower charging rate. The device is retrofitable to existing rechargeable batteries allowing them to be charged using existing charging systems alien to the rechargeable battery.

International Classification:

H02J 904

US Classification:

318139

Abstract:

In a circuit having an electromechanical transducer, such as a motor (22), a control switch (24) is controlled by a control circuit (26) to connect the motor to, and disconnect from, a battery (12). When control switch opens, thereby disconnecting the motor from the battery, the momentum achieved by the motor tends keep the motor turning, causing the motor to behave like a generator. A switch network (28) connects a first capacitor (30), which is initially discharged, across the motor at the same time the control switch disconnects it from the battery. The momentum of the motor, and any attached mechanical system (32), generates a transient charge which is collected by the first capacitor. When the voltage produced by the collected charge reaches a peak, the switch network disconnects the first capacitor from the motor, reorients the first capacitor, and waits to apply the voltage to the motor. A charge pump connected between the first capacitor and the battery may be activated to transfer the collected charge back to the battery if the motor is not to be started for some time.
