    • An automatically provisioned network element (26) has the ability to detect a heartbeat message interval used by a remote network element (22, 24) and to automatically adjust a heartbeat interval timer value that it uses for sending subsequent heartbeat messages. The adjustment is responsive to the interval used by the remote network element 50 that they correspond to each other. By automatically configuring the heartbeat timer interval value so that there is correspondence between the intervals used by the end points on a link over which Cisco HDLC SLARP communications occur, for example, the chance of a link being considered to have failed is decreased. In a disclosed example, the heartbeat interval timer value is initially set to a value that is expected to be higher than that used by the remote network element and only automatic reductions in the heartbeat message interval timer value are permitted.

    • An interface between a parallel backplane bus of a physical layer of a communication device and a higher layer of the device is provided in a manner compatible with a serial bus architecture such as IEEE 1394. The interface includes a parallel backplane physical layer controller having multiple receive data lines for receiving data from the backplane bus, and multiple transmit data lines for transmitting data to the backplane bus. A link layer controller is coupled to the parallel backplane physical layer controller, and communicates with the parallel backplane physical layer controller over a data bus. The parallel backplane physical layer controller can provide an effective data bandwidth which is greater than its operating clock rate. The parallel backplane physical layer controller may also be operative to support communications with the backplane bus using a plurality of different backplane bus widths, such as a single data bit bus width, a two data bit bus width, a four data bit bus width and an eight data bit bus width. The throughput data bandwidth of the interface can therefore be scaled by selecting one of the data bus widths supported by the parallel backplane physical layer controller.
    • 以与诸如IEEE 1394的串行总线架构兼容的方式提供通信设备的物理层的并行背板总线与设备的较高层之间的接口。该接口包括具有多个接收的并行背板物理层控制器 用于从背板总线接收数据的数据线,以及用于将数据发送到背板总线的多条发送数据线。 链路层控制器耦合到并行背板物理层控制器,并通过数据总线与并行背板物理层控制器进行通信。 并行背板物理层控制器可以提供大于其工作时钟速率的有效数据带宽。 并行背板物理层控制器还可以使用多个不同的背板总线宽度支持与背板总线的通信,诸如单个数据位总线宽度,两个数据位总线宽度,四个数据位总线宽度和 八位数据位总线宽度。 因此,可以通过选择并行背板物理层控制器支持的数据总线宽度来缩放接口的吞吐量数据带宽。

    • The existing paging infrastructure is used to send commands to operate remotely-located electronic or mechanical devices. A paging message containing one or more pre-set commands, trigger signals, or command strings is received by a paging receiver into an optional signal buffer which provides the received message to a message compare function. The message compare matches each component of the message to a set of one or more allowed commands and sends at least one signal or command that causes the action specified by the received message contents to take place at the target device. The command may be a signal for triggering an electronic or mechanical action, or may be a command that causes an operation to be performed in a software-controlled component of the target device. An alternate embodiment allows responses generated by the system and/or the target device to be forwarded back to the initiator via a two-way paging transceiver. The target device either has the capability of generating one or more signals or other messages in response to the commands received, or the system has the capability of sensing the state of the target device after receipt of the commands. Responses generated by the target device may be sent to the optional signal buffer or directly to the paging transceiver, or may be received and modified by a response generation function that is part of the system. Responses may be relayed either at the completion of the execution of all the received commands or after the execution of any of the commands in a multi-command sequence, providing feedback to the initiator as the command sequence is processed. The initiator may also receive an indication of the success or failure of the entire sequence of operations, or may receive data or other information produced or collected by the target device.
    • 现有的寻呼基础设施用于发送命令以操作远程位置的电子或机械设备。 包含一个或多个预置命令,触发信号或命令串的寻呼消息由寻呼机接收到可选的信号缓冲器中,该信号缓冲器将接收到的消息提供给消息比较功能。 消息比较将消息的每个组件与一组或多个允许的命令进行匹配,并发送至少一个信号或命令,导致由接收到的消息内容指定的动作发生在目标设备上。 该命令可以是用于触发电子或机械动作的信号,或者可以是使得在目标设备的软件控制部件中执行操作的命令。 替代实施例允许由系统和/或目标设备产生的响应经由双向寻呼收发器被转发回发起者。 目标设备具有响应于所接收的命令产生一个或多个信号或其他消息的能力,或者系统具有在接收到命令之后感测目标设备的状态的能力。 由目标设备生成的响应可以被发送到可选的信号缓冲器或直接发送到寻呼收发器,或者可以由作为系统的一部分的响应生成功能接收和修改。 响应可以在完成所有接收到的命令的执行时或在执行多命令序列中的任何命令之后被中继,当处理命令序列时向响应者提供反馈。 启动器还可以接收整个操作序列的成功或失败的指示,或者可以接收目标设备产生或收集的数据或其他信息。

    • Each link between components connected in a daisy-chain configuration is also connected to a special router that can be configured to bypass any one or more of the components. In this way, one or more failed components can be isolated from the daisy-chain configuration without affecting the ability of the other operational components to continue to operate properly. In one embodiment, the special router has a configuration of horizontal and vertical switches and delay nodes. The switches can be independently and selectively controlled to isolate one or more of the components from the daisy-chain configuration, while the delay nodes delay transmission of the signals to simulate the processing time of the bypassed components. In this way, interference with the processing of the remaining operational components can be minimized. In a mobile telecommunications application where each component is a cell-site modem (CSM) of a base station responsible for communications with a different assigned mobile unit, a single-point CSM failure can be detected and isolated in real time without adversely affecting the ability of the remaining operational CSMs to continue to operate, even without interrupting active support of current calls.
    • 以菊花链配置连接的组件之间的每个链接也连接到可配置为绕过任何一个或多个组件的特殊路由器。 以这种方式,一个或多个故障组件可以与菊花链配置隔离,而不会影响其他操作组件继续正常运行的能力。 在一个实施例中,特殊路由器具有水平和垂直交换机和延迟节点的配置。 可以独立地和选择性地控制开关以将一个或多个组件与菊花链配置隔离,而延迟节点延迟信号的传输以模拟旁路组件的处理时间。 以这种方式,可以最小化对其余操作部件的处理的干扰。 在移动电信应用中,其中每个组件是负责与不同分配的移动单元的通信的基站的小区现场调制解调器(CSM),可以实时检测和隔离单点CSM故障,而不会不利地影响能力 的剩余操作CSM继续运行,即使不中断当前呼叫的积极支持。

    • The present invention is an apparatus and a method for sharing a communication channel among two or more base stations connected to a base station controller via a common transmission line in a channelized format. The present invention allows each of the base stations to receive data transmitted over a shared communication channel from the base station controller, to determine whether the data transmitted from the base station controller is intended for that base station, and to insert its data into the communication channel without interfering with data transmitted by other base stations over the communication channel. In one embodiment, each of the base stations is configured to bridge onto the transmission facility such that signaling messages being transmitted over a signaling channel may be received by all of the base stations. The signaling messages has associated identifiers for specifying particular base stations to which the signaling messages are intended. In another embodiment, each of the base stations can insert its signaling message into the data stream over the signaling channel without interfering with signaling messages already in the data stream.

    • The system and method of the invention automatically provide appropriate configuration and control software to a hardware system consisting of multiple target hardware modules. A system controller is connected to the target hardware modules and to a repository that stores a set of software modules. Each software module includes configuration and control information for a particular target hardware module. When a particular software control and configuration scheme for at least a portion of the target hardware modules is to be implemented in the hardware system, software modules corresponding to the particular software control and configuration scheme are selected and associated with a system definition file that is also stored in the repository. When the system definition file is invoked by the system controller, the system controller executes the associated software modules thereby providing the particular software control and configuration scheme to appropriate target hardware modules. When the particular software control and configuration scheme needs to be updated, one or more software modules of the system definition file may be replaced with an updated version without reconfiguring the hardware system.
