`
`Description
`of Related
`Art
`
`The birth of digital
`packet
`data communications
`technology
`in the late 60's and
`
`70's occurred
`when the first successful
`transmission
`of digital
`information
`was made over
`
`ARPA-Net: the birthplace
`of the internet
`world wide web (WW) between
`two mainframe
`
`computers.
`The next important
`event occurred
`when a data packet
`was transmitted
`
`between
`two computers
`via a wireless
`radio channel
`at the University
`of Hawaii.
`This
`
`event marked the birth of the Aloha Net, the first
`wireless
`packet
`data network.
`Since the
`
`Early 70's wireless
`packet
`data has exponentially
`grown, and simultaneously
`evolved
`into
`
`an endless array of
`wireless
`data communications
`platforms. Today
`there are many types
`
`of wireless
`data packet formats,
`and just as many wireless
`and wireline
`data

`
`communications
`pathways
`to transport
`packet
`data. There is much talk in the Wireless
`
`Press and mass market
`media about wireless
`internet
`services,
`such as wireless e-mail, text
`
`messaging
`and the like.
`Pruporlionatdy little
`is said about one of the most important
`areas
`
`of wireless
`data communications: Telemetry data
`and supervisory
`control
`and data
`
`acquisition
`(SCADA) management
`systems.
`
`Wireless
`telemetry
`data is the dirty workhorse
`of wireless
`telecommunications
`
`technology. Wireless
`telemetry
`is little
`black boxes with antennas
`sticking
`out of them.
`
`Stuck off in factories
`while keeping
`track of a plurality
`of application
`systems:
`set inside
`
`commercial security
`systems,
`traffic
`control
`systems;
`wireless
`telemetry
`terminals
`are little
`
`brains
`that keep it all together. Today
`with few exceptions
`wireless
`telemetry
`data
`robotic
`
`systems
`tends to mimic the protocols,
`processes
`that reflect
`a technical
`adaptation
`of
`
`conventional
`wireless
`terrestrial
`trunked
`radio systems
`such as: cellular,
`personal
`
`communications
`systems
`(PCS).
`trunked
`mobile
`radio,
`specialized
`mobile
`radio (SMR)
`
`and packet
`radio networks.
`Also included
`are space segment
`and ground
`segment
`satellite
`
`networks
`with all
`its myriad
`of wireless
`data communication
`modulation
`schemes
`and
`
`packet
`data formations.
`
`The invention
`is based upon a synthesis
`of key theoretical
`elements
`drawn from a
`
`multiplicity
`of disparate
`resources.
`One resource
`drawn upon here occurred
`as a
`
`culminating
`event in 1948. Dr. Claude
`Shannon
`a Bell Labs theorist
`and engineer
`
`published
`a paper based upon
`a concept
`called
`"Information
`Theory."
`Like Maxwell's
`
`Theorem
`that essentially defined electromagnetism
`and thus made radio and telephone
`
`communications
`possible, Shannon's
`Information
`Theorem
`enabled
`all electronic
`data
`
`communications.
`From the internet
`and digital
`television
`to wireless
`telemetry
`data: all is
`
`made possible because of
`Shannon·
`s work. One of
`the tenets of
`Infonnation
`Theory is that
`
`the content
`of the information
`is irrelevant.
`Information
`Theory converts
`all electronic
`
`based information
`into quantifiable
`elements
`called
`binary
`data. Zeros and Ones are the
`
`discrete
`units that define
`what most observe
`in the technological
`reductionist
`universe
`that
`
`dominates
`current
`communication
`system
`design thinking.
`
`As Shannon
`said: "These
`semantic
`aspects
`of communication
`are irrelevant
`to the
`
`engineering
`problem:
`The significant
`aspect
`is that the actual
`message
`is one selected
`from
`
`2
`
`Intel, Exhibit 1015
`
`

`

`WOOJ/56204
`
`PCT/USOl/02759
`
`a set of possible
`messages. The
`system must be designed
`to operate
`for each possible
`
`since this is unknown at the time
`selection,
`not just the one which will actually
`be chosen,
`
`of design."
`This concept
`is a cornerstone
`that makes possible
`the inventions
`linear
`wireless
`
`telemetry
`data packet
`communication
`"join-in-mechanism,"
`in the same charmel space and
`
`the fuzzy
`logic based route "bucket
`brigade"
`relay spread
`spectrum
`wireless
`telemetry
`data
`
`packet
`protocol technology
`that transpires
`in a singular
`telemetry data
`communications
`
`event.
`The invention extends
`the fundamental
`concepts
`of Information
`Theory for beyond
`
`what has come before in wireless
`telemetry
`data. The invention
`creates
`an
`
`electromagnet
`ic-wireless-data-telemetry-organism
`that operates
`in inter-dimensional
`
`of data in a telemetry
`metaverse
`that behaves
`in a predicted
`yet randomly
`applied
`fractals
`
`protocol
`that acts dynamically
`in a malleable
`per event basis without
`impacting
`the
`
`conventional
`purpose
`of the selected
`host wireless
`or wireline
`telecommunications
`
`network.
`
`There have been many attempts
`throughout
`the history of wireless
`telemetry
`data
`
`to create
`efficient
`and low-cost
`wireless
`telemetry
`data communication
`systems.
`However
`
`most contemporary
`wireless
`telemetry
`data communication
`systems
`are but adaptations
`of
`
`conventional
`wireless
`and wireline
`telecommunications
`platforms
`that were originally
`
`designed
`to support
`voice communication
`services. These
`conventional
`wireless
`and
`
`based telecommunications
`platforms
`have evolved
`into mature,
`robust
`and
`wireline
`
`reliable
`systems
`that are at the same time
`costly
`mechanisms
`for wireless
`telemetry
`data.
`
`How can wireless
`and wireline
`networks
`that were originally
`designed
`to support
`heavy
`
`voice traffic handle
`lower tier telemetry
`data efficiently
`and remain cost effective?
`The
`
`invention
`provides
`the solution
`with its pioneering
`means and methods.
`
`The invention
`provides
`the means, the method and the apparatus
`to enable
`efficient
`
`data communications
`within
`the network
`elements
`of a plurality
`of host network
`telemetry
`
`platforms.
`These networks
`include
`but are not limited
`to analog
`and digital: trunked

`
`devices
`are used for SCAD A based synchronized
`terrestrial
`and space segment
`radio
`
`system applications
`that the invention
`USPR telemetry data
`network
`model enables.
`The
`
`invention
`is unique in the wireless
`data telemetry,
`and data communications
`world. The
`
`invention
`provides
`immediate technical
`adaptation
`and public
`benefit
`to mobile trunked
`
`radio systems
`such as utility
`communication
`systems,
`public
`safety
`communication
`
`systems,
`law enforcement
`and other such public
`service
`trunked
`radio communication
`
`systems.
`The invention's
`CDTMA telemetry
`data system
`manage protocols
`will operate
`
`efficiently,
`and without
`interfering
`with conventional
`voice and data traffic.
`
`Traditionally,
`trunked
`radio systems
`are those which share a small number ofradio
`
`channels
`among larger
`numbers
`of users.
`The physical channels
`are allocated
`as needed to
`
`the users who are assigned
`reverse
`radio channels.
`The users only hear units on the same
`
`logical
`channels.
`This uses the available
`resources
`more efficiently
`since most users do not
`
`need the channel
`100% of the time. The term "trunking"
`has its origins
`in the Telephone
`
`Industry.
`For over 100 years,
`the lines between
`telephone
`exchanges
`have been shared
`
`between customers.
`In early telephone
`exchanges,
`operators
`would call an adjacent
`
`exchange
`and patch through
`a call when a customer
`was located
`there.
`The operator
`just
`
`selected
`the next circuit
`that was idle and not in use. Now the allocation
`is automatic
`but
`
`the result is
`the same. For example,
`overhead
`control
`channels
`in analog
`and digital
`
`cellular
`and PCS essentially
`operate
`in this same fundamental way.
`
`Physical
`radio channels
`and their assigned
`frequencies
`have been shared
`mediums
`
`since the early days of radio.
`In the early days of radio operators
`would have to listen
`to a
`
`particular
`frequency
`to determine
`if it was in use. Early mobile telephone
`systems
`
`These systems
`were
`similarly
`required
`a customer
`to find an inactive
`channel
`manually.
`
`upgraded
`by hardware
`and software that could find
`a vacant
`mobile-telephone
`channel
`
`automatically, and
`by two-way
`radios
`with sub-audible
`(CTSS) tone equipment. This
`
`equipment
`was available
`in the I 950's.
`In the 1980's,
`microcomputers
`brought
`a
`
`revolution
`in this access
`control
`procedure
`to both trllilked
`mobile radio and cellular
`
`mobile telephone.
`A real computer
`could be put inside
`a mobile two-way
`radio and u
`
`cellular
`communications
`terminal.
`Today digital
`cellular
`and PCS handsets
`have more
`
`circuitry,
`firmware and software
`inside,
`but the technical
`mission
`is the same
`sophisticated
`
`as shared
`radio.
`Both trunked
`mobile radio and cellular
`systems
`have a central-computer
`
`5
`
`Intel, Exhibit 1015
`
`

`

`WO 01/56204
`
`PCT/USOl/02759
`
`
`
`
`
`that manages the system. Like cellular mobile switching centers (MSC) and its network
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`management medium called the SS7 network, and radio-cellular control channels, the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`mobile radio control center
`
`
`trunked
`
`
`communicates with the mobile radios via an overhead
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`from telephony interconnections trunked mobile radio supports data signal. Like cellular,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`conventional PSTN originated calls to trunked mobile radio repeaters that relay the calls to
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`and from mobile radio communications terminals. Trunked mobile radio networks support
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`DID, DOD, DTMF, MF, MFI, MFC, dial pulse and dial click and other in-band and out­
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`of-band signaling. Most of these analog and digital trunked mobile radio networks suppon
`

`
`
`When a trunked mobile radio user wishes to talk with someone on the same reverse
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`channel, the user simply presses the microphone (PTT) or handset talk bunon. The trunked
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`mobile radio then sends a data signal to the controller located at the mobile radio control
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`center requesting the assignment of a specific reverse voice/traffic channel. The controller
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`located in the control center (CC) responds with a physical reverse channel number. In
`
`
`
`
`
`
`digital
`
`
`
`
`
`TOMA or CDMA trunked radio and an assignment of time slot or coded slot in the
`
`
`
`
`
`mobile radio The requesting frame slot of a logical trunked radio traffic channel occurs.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`switches back to receive long enough to "hear" this information. At the same time, all the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`other mobile radios see the same data. Those with the same logical channel selected,
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`follow to that physical channel. They use that channel just like any other two-way radio
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`would.
`
`
`
`
`
`Trunked mobile radio control centers (CC) are similar to cellular network mobile
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`switching center (MSC) in that both manage all inbound and outbound user traffic.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`These mobile radio systems use repeater-base stations, because they repeat the
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`same set of allocated channel bands in a typical operational footprint area. In a cellular
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`network environment, each base site reuses frequencies that are assigned to that network.
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`However these cellular frequencies are not repeated in adjacent base site cells. For
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`example in a 400 hundred base site cellular system physical channel frequencies are
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`repeated a total of approximately seven times. The plot plan of each cellular network is
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`designed to spread out base sites with the same frequency assignment. Therefore, when a
`

`
`base sile is assigned
`a set of channel
`frequencies
`by the FCC the cell operating
`cellular
`
`adjacent
`to its footprint
`is using yet another
`set of assigned
`frequencies
`in order to avoid
`
`cross-talk
`and other obvious
`radio propagation
`frequency
`collision
`phenomenon.
`
`In a typical
`trunked
`mobile radio scenario
`the base station
`transmits
`from a base
`
`station that
`is located
`on a tall tower,
`a mountain
`top or
`tall building
`in an urban
`
`environment,
`over the base frequency
`or channel.
`The mobile radio units listen
`on that
`
`frequeocy
`hut transmit
`on another frequency
`paired
`with it. This scenario
`is quite similar
`
`to cellular
`network
`operations.
`When a cellular radio
`user requests
`service
`by dialing
`a
`
`number and presses the
`send button.
`What results
`after authentication
`and other
`directory
`
`procedures
`are completed, is
`a full duplex
`voice channel
`assignment.
`Once the control
`
`channel
`assignment
`and activity
`is complete,
`and voice channels
`arc assigned,
`they are
`
`from the serving
`base site
`to the associated
`mobile
`switching center
`(MSC) and
`routed
`
`then routed
`to the called
`party or calling
`party.
`In a trunked
`mobile radio environment
`the
`
`mobile radio listens
`to the base station frequency
`or channel,
`it transmits
`on the mobile
`
`frequency
`and repeats
`the audio
`tone onto the base station
`frequency
`paired
`with it. Thus
`
`any mobile radio
`unit that can hear or detect
`the base station
`can detect
`all other mobile
`
`radio which the base station
`detects.
`These repeaters
`extend
`the mobile-to-mobile
`
`coverage.

`
`Trunked
`mobile radio utilizes
`several
`frequency
`ranges
`that have standard
`
`separation between
`the base starion
`and mobile frequency

`In the 85 I-869MHz
`
`range.
`the mobile radio units transmit
`c�actly
`45 MHz lower that the base station
`utilizes
`
`806-824
`frequency
`ranges.
`The 900 MHz band uses a 39 MHz separation
`for example,
`
`base stations
`transmit
`in the 935-940
`MHz band and the mobile radio units transmit
`on the
`
`896-901

`
`
`
`
`
`Like cellular networks and PCS, Motorola trunked radio systems utilize a channel
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`assigned as the forward control channel. The control center (CC) controller sends data

`for example,
`the FMTC channel
`
`manages
`each of then inventions
`RCTT Units in the following
`way. In a trunked
`mobile
`
`radio network
`the invention
`utilizes
`the conventional
`join in feature by essentially
`
`broadcasting
`forward access
`instruction
`sets and other pertinent
`authorization
`coding
`on
`
`the FMTC channel.
`The FMTC therefore
`sends join in or access
`instructions
`to RCTT
`
`Units that have been instructed
`to passively
`"listen"
`to the currently
`assigned
`FTMC
`
`channel.
`The inventions
`data listening
`feature
`is actually
`not listening
`at all in the
`
`traditional
`sense that is commonly
`understood
`by most trunked radio technicians.
`The
`
`RCTT Unit
`is designed
`to operate
`in three general
`capacities.
`A master
`mode (MM)
`
`an RCTT is first called,
`by broadcasting
`its l.D. and address/user
`data over the
`whereby
`
`FTMC of the trunked
`radio network.
`When the RCTT unit responds
`to master
`mode (MM)
`
`instruction
`sets or invoke
`parameters,
`it first
`transmits
`its own telemetry
`status
`packets.
`
`Once the RCTT unit that is set in master
`mode (MM) and its telemetry
`data
`
`transmission
`is complete, it
`then transmits
`unique
`signaling
`data communications
`RTMC
`
`sub set
`protocols
`in an intermittent
`burst transmission
`scheme based upon the
`instruction
`
`sets contained
`in the FTMC program,
`time code orders
`and R TMC transmission
`schemes.
`
`The RCTT Unit in master
`mode (MM) transmits
`SAT tone or other in-band
`control
`
`signaling
`Lo the currently
`serving
`base station
`in order to maintain
`integrity in the
`assigned
`
`until other RCTT Units are ordered
`to transmit
`their SAT tone signaling
`and data
`channel
`
`packets
`in the same assigned
`channel
`space.
`The serving
`base station
`relays
`the
`
`information
`to the USPR telemetry
`data management
`hub host via the mobile radio control
`
`center.
`Then, the other RC'IT units
`that have been listening
`to the FTMC on the same
`
`frequency
`channel
`are ordered
`to join-in
`upon receiving
`a specifically
`coded and
`
`designated
`"join in" order,
`by bursting
`their status
`packets
`ordered
`by the FTMC in a
`
`carefully
`synchronized
`and time coded sequential
`burst fashion.
`The result?

`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`
`Along with the master mode (MM) another important set-of-modes is the

`
`
`inventions RCTT Unit's passive sniff mode (PSM) the active access mode (AAM). Both

`
`
`
`
`
`synchronizing,
`
`
`
`
`
`and time code alignment instruction set recognition by each RCTT unit that
`
`
