Substrate and collector grid structures for integrated series connected photovoltaic arrays and process of manufacture of such arrays

This invention comprises deposition of thin film photovoltaic junctions on metal substrates which can be heat treated following deposition in a continuous fashion without deterioration of the metal support structure. In a separate operation an interconnection substrate structure is produced in a continuous roll-to-roll fashion. In this way the interconnection substrate structure can be uniquely formulated from polymer-based materials since it does not have to endure high temperature exposure. Cells comprising the metal foil supported photovoltaic junctions are then laminated to the interconnection substrate structure. Conductive interconnections are deposited to complete the array. The conductive interconnections can be accomplished with a separately prepared interconnection component. The interconnected array is produced using continuous roll-to-roll processing which avoids the need to use the expensive and intricate material removal operations currently taught in the art to achieve electrical interconnections among arrays of photovoltaic cells.

Communication system architecture and operating protocol therefor

A connection broker (44), located between lower-level system entities (16, 58, 264) associated with a narrowband-broadband interface (250) and a call server (18) that controls call connection across the narrowband-broadband network, contains a memory (251) that stores connection-related information and protocol converters. The connection broker (44) accesses the protocol converters to interpret control messages received from the call server (18) and, where necessary, transposes messages for the call server into a standardised format for use over a uniform fabric application interface (66). Control messages pertaining to connection paths within the narrowband-broadband network (250) and relayed via the connection broker (44) are appropriately phrased (by the connection-related information and protocol converters) to ensure that meaningful information and instruction is communicated between the call server (18) and the lower-level system entities (16, 58, 264). Use of the protocol converters therefore enables connection attributes and network operation and configuration to be altered and advised in-call by having the connection broker (44) both change connection-related information and communicate any change in network configuration to the call server and lower-level system entities, as appropriate.

Methods and systems for per-session dynamic management of media gateway resources

Methods and systems for per-session dynamic management of media gateway resources are disclosed. According to one method, the logical and physical resources in a media gateway are divided and dynamically managed at the Transport Layer (i.e. OSI Layer 4), which results in finer granularity than managing such resources statically at the Data Link Layer (i.e. OSI Layer 2) or Network Layer (i.e. OSI Layer 3). Voice-processing resources provided by voice server cards may be pooled into a common pool available to all external networks. For each new call / session, the dynamic resource manager of the media gateway dynamically allocates a voice chip from the pooled voice processing resources, and assigns a logical resource identifier (e.g. a local IP and local UDP pair) to the session. When a network interface card receives incoming voice packets, it checks the destination IP and UDP and optionally the source IP and UDP to find out, and forward voice packets to, the voice chip assigned to the session.

Communication system architecture and method of establishing a communication connection therein

To segregate functionality and to eliminate redundancy in service logic and associated hardware that together control the interconnection of narrowband trunk circuits (252-256) and broadband virtual channels (258-262) of a mixed node communication system (FIG. 5), a switch fabric (16) has an associated memory (280) that contains a pre-provisioned table of mappings between narrowband trunk circuits (DS-0s) and broadband virtual channel identities. Therefore, to establish an end-to-end connection, the switch fabric (16) searches the pre-provisioned table (280) for an available connection and then performs the necessary cross-connection between the narrowband trunk circuit is (252-256) and the broadband virtual channel (258-262). The mappings principally relate to the narrowband-to-switch fabric interface and, as such, avoid the requirement for UNI signalling translation and negotiation, although the mappings may also include the broadband-to-switch fabric interface.

Audio system utilizing personal computer

An audio system is constructed by a personal computer and an audio device, which are connected together by way of a serial bus such as a universal serial bus (USB), for example. The audio device such as an audio component stereo system provides at least one audio source such as the tuner and recording media, which provides first audio data representing music or else. The personal computer uses graphical user interface (GUI) for controlling operation of the audio data, wherein it provides control data and second audio data representing message sounds, which are transmitted to the audio device via the serial bus. Thus, the audio device performs mixing between the first audio data and second audio data on the basis of the control data. Then, speakers produce sounds based on mixing result. The audio device is equipped with an analog mixing circuit, which performs analog mixing between analog signals corresponding to the first and second audio data respectively. Or, the audio device is equipped with a digital mixing circuit, which performs digital mixing between the first and second audio data. Thus, the user is capable of hearing the message sounds while listening to the music provided from the audio source of the audio device, for example.
