This past Tuesday, Jan. 30, Rowan University experienced a campus power issue. The issues caused the Rowan Wi-Fi network to be out of service as well as Rowan’s Public Safety phone lines. Students were sent a text informing them to direct all emergency calls directly to 911, as Rowan Police and emergency services would not be able to be reached during the outage.
The power was restored within an hour, allowing for all networks to be back up and running temporarily. In order for Rowan to fix the network completely, the university called for emergency maintenance on the network infrastructure for Wednesday, January 31 at 10 p.m.
In an email to students, Rowan’s Information Resource and Technology center (IRT) announced the maintenance would cause a Wi-Fi outage as well as out of service phone lines for Rowan’s Public Safety. The Residence Halls on the north side of Route 322 that were affected include Chestnut, Mimosa and Magnolia Halls, as well as the Edgewood Park and Rowan Boulevard Apartments and the Holly Pointe Commons.
However, many students continue to complain about the outages in other living spaces such as the Whitney Center.

Amateur Radio – The Obsolete Heroes
– Originally written by Richard Bateman, 2005
Most people have heard of them: old guys, remnants of the 1920s, who have 200 foot antenna towers in their backyards and spend all day in their basements tapping out Morse Code to talk to other weirdos on the other side of the world. Normal humans beings have yet to discover why these old men haven’t figured out that it’s much easier to just use Internet Chat. It seems the ancient rituals of Amateur Radio just won’t die. I consider myself an authority on the subject; a tower decorates the side of my house and extends approximately 15 feet above my roof. On top of that tower stands a long white antenna of approximately 25 feet in length, and several other antennas of varying sizes and shapes are attached to the sides. Friends and family never seem to have any trouble figuring out which house is mine.
I should probably mention that I am not actually a remnant of the 1920s. In fact, my parents brought me into the world in 1983. My father installed the aforementioned antennas and tower in my youth; they were given to him by his father, who has been an active Amateur Radio operator in Utah for around 50 years. My fascination with the archaic sport derived mostly from things I learned at home while growing up,.
As everyone knows, the downfall of Amateur Radio began with the invention of the telephone (when our parents were in high school) and modern technology ruthlessly crushed any slim chance of survival with the introduction of the Internet and cell phones into our everyday lives. However, since there are still old men such as my grandfather kicking around who copy and send Morse Code at 40 words per minute (which seems to indicate some sort of mutant gene, as this is clearly physically impossible for a normal human), I figure I may as well enjoy my geeky hobby while I wait for Ham Radio to finally complete its inevitable demise.
Interestingly enough, however, despite the obvious antiquity of the hobby, every month more and more people take the 35 question test to earn their amateur radio licenses. I periodically get together with other Ham Radio operators and assist with community events and emergencies such as races, parades, fireworks, charity fund-raisers, auto shows, forest fires, power outages, floods, earthquakes, mudslides, chronic boredom, and lost or annoying family members. In fact, despite the clear superiority of other technologies that do not require a Ham Radio license, I have yet to see any signs of decline at all in the hobby that I have come to love. Actually, quite the opposite seems to be true; there are now more things than ever before that one can do with a radio license, and the number of licensed Amateur Radio licensees is growing at a seemingly unimpeeded rate.
This conundrum can be explained if one understands more about the nature of Ham Radio itself. Ham Radio, officially designated “Amateur Radio”, is managed by the Federal Communications Commission, commonly referred to as the FCC. Part 97.1 of Title 47 (Code of Federal Regulations: Telecommunications) describes the primary purpose of Amateur Radio as (paraphrased slightly) being of value to the public as a voluntary non-commercial communications service, particularly by providing emergency communications. For those of you who – like me – think this sounds like another language, I’ll paraphrase even more: Ham Radio is strictly non-profit and is used primarily to provide communications for public, service, and emergency events. Amateur Radio’s non-profit rule makes it a valuable resource for many organizations, such as the Red Cross, Salvation Army, and even your local police and fire departments, that otherwise could not provide adequate communications for their events.
When trying to convince others to get their Amateur Radio license, I hear the same argument nearly every time: “I have a cell phone. What would I do with a radio?” As everyone knows, it’s much easier to call someone on a cell phone than it is to call that same person on a radio; the person you wish to contact must be not only on the correct frequency but also close enough to be in range of the call. What most people do not consider, however, is that while cell phones are a wonderful resource – I carry one myself – there are many areas that lack adequate cell phone coverage and many situations where cell phones are simply unable to fulfill the need.
My family and I help out every year with a scouting event called the Klondike Derby. It’s a winter camping event involving hundreds of scouts from around the area. Getting everyone parked as close to their campsites as possible while still making efficient use of limited parking space can be a thorny problem, requiring a great deal of coordinated effort between seven parking lots and the lodge, where the camp is managed from. The “person to person” nature of cell phones make them extremely inefficient at sharing information with more than one or two people at a time, and we have yet to find a cell phone carrier with coverage at that campsite. With radios, we keep everything running smoothly with parking and obtain fast answers from the camp coordinators for frantic scoutmasters. All radio operators on the channel hear every question ask, as well as the answers given; rarely is information repeated..
Another well-known event that – sadly – exemplified the problems with the “regular” communications systems like cell phones occurred on September 11, 2001. Two Boeing 747 airplanes crashed into the World Trade Center towers in New York, killing thousands of people and sending the world into a shocked outrage. Few understand the role that Amateur Radio operators played during this time of tragedy. When the towers collapsed, they took with them not only the cell phone towers that provided much of the coverage for the area, but New York City’s Office of Emergency Management (formerly located on the 21st and 22nd floor) as well. The sheer number of frantic people trying to call and check on loved ones quickly rendered the public and cell phone systems virtually useless to emergency personnel. Firefighters and other emergency personnel use two-way radio systems similar to Ham Radios, but the inability for services to talk to each other caused the deaths of many firefighters who could have otherwise been warned by the police that the towers were collapsing.
As soon as the scope of the emergency became known, the FCC and public safety divisions began to activate RACES (pronounced RAY-seize) groups across the United States. RACES, or Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service, is a government directed program of Amateur Radio operators that takes control of the airwaves in the case of an emergency. Amateur Radio operators across the United States – particularly in the areas surrounding New York City – immediately volunteered their time and skills to assist with the efforts, coordinating the efforts of the Red Cross, the Salvation Army, the government, and other service organizations.
If anyone believes they are “too young” to be “one of those old guys”, think again. When ten-year-old Beverly Holtz (Amateur Radio Call sign KC2IKT) from Huntington, Long Island, New York learned of the tragedy at the World Trade Center, she wanted to help. At a Red Cross shelter in Valley Stream, New York, Beverly used her father’s hand-held radio to relay health-and-welfare information to emergency response coordinators. Despite being the only radio operator at the shelter for a full 8 hour shift, Beverly faithfully performed her duties, only one of many radio operators that kept things running when all else was chaos (Lindquist).
There are other less dramatic examples of ways that Amateur Radio saves lives, prevents panic, and even just provides convenience. Some things are small – like patrolling the course of a 10 mile race, watching for and reporting anyone who may need medical assistance and keeping track of where the runners are. Some things are larger – every year Amateur Radio operators keep the parade running smoothly at the Provo, Utah Freedom Festival (one of the largest Independence Day celebrations in the nation) by coordinating the timing and position of the parade entries, keeping track of confused vendors, and helping to find lost children. Last year my neighbors lost a child at that parade; they searched the street for 20 minutes to no avail, but when they finally asked the radio operator at a nearby first aid station, the operator immediately remembered a report of a child the police had found just down the street matching his description. My neighbors found their child. Cell phones are wonderful tools, but they don’t work well to keep track of 30 different locations all at once.
I have been a licensed Amateur Radio operator for seven years now. I have assisted with many events and used the associated skills in many of the jobs I have held, installing and configuring many types of radio systems and antennas, troubleshooting electronics, and helping to coordinate group activities. My father and I once used our radios to locate a lost cousin by triangulating in on the signal from the FRS (Family Radio Service) radio he was carrying. I’ve had the opportunity to stand barely 500 yards away from the launch site and watch fireworks; I and other operators circled the perimeter and watched for fires. When I attend large public gatherings, I frequently know everything that is going on in the area – because Amateur Radio operators are providing communications for the event. I have saved lives. I have reunited lost children with their parents. I have kept loved ones in touch with each other.
Ham Radio is misunderstood by a great many people. Some of us do, indeed, use Morse Code to talk to people in other countries – which, by the way, do not all have telephone systems or Internet access. Most of us earned our licenses for other reasons. We enjoy our hobby. We use it for fun, to find out what traffic conditions are like, to keep track of each other on family hikes, and sometimes just to chat with our friends. What we are really about, however, is the people that we help. We are the sum of the services we perform, and you could be too. You aren’t too young to get a license. You aren’t too cool to help people. You aren’t too poor to get involved. You aren’t too busy to make a difference. Ham Radio isn’t the past; it’s the future.

Automatic Meter Reading / Energy Management System
Highlights of the system:
The company has extensively invested time and money to develop the solution which can disseminate data on a real time basis, besides a comprehensive billing solution. The advantage to the implementer is the cost and time to implement such a solution.
Power line communication (PLC) has been developed to create an effective communication network using the same electrical infrastructure that supplies all the network elements, without adding any new and expensive cables or RF.
A narrowband communication over power lines is sufficient for simple information exchange as measure, command to actuators, check system and so on, allowing a wide number of applications in both outdoor and indoor environments.
For example, utilities can use the outdoor network for remote street lighting control and monitoring or for Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Management (AMM), providing at the same time many client services like power consumption control and tariff selection.
On the other side, the indoor electrical grid can be used to connect appliances realizing home or building automation, security and safety systems, temperature and lighting.

Need to silently intercept text messages? Or listen to live call in progress of your employees or children? Maybe you suspect them of misusing your phone or texting inappropriate people? Have you ever been curious as to what your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife is chatting about on their cell phone? Then we have the spyphone software that will let you learn the truth, and now you could listen in 100% completely undetected. .
Using our Spy Phone Software packages you will be able to turn your mobile phone into your secret spy, there are several different softwares that you can choose from that will allow you to listen in, receive call or copies of texts sent from your target phone.
Whenever the Target Phone's SIM card is changed, a notification SMS is immediately sent to your number showing you a new Target Phone number. Whenever the Target Phone is switched on, a notification SMS is immediately sent to you.
The Target Phone will send its GPS location /Real-Time GPS Tracking. This will include:
The software can be restarted at any time by sending the reboot command from the PDN (Pre Defined Number). If this feature is applicable to your package, by sending the Reboot command will help stabilise the software should it encounter any problems.
By sending the Status command you will receive a text message to your PDN to assure you that the software is working and which features you have activated.
When an incoming or outgoing call is dialed or received by the target phone you will instantly and automatically receive a 'real time' text notification alert to the pre-defined number. The Text Alert will show the full phone number of who is calling them or the full phone number they are dialing out.
Receive duplicate copies of all target phone's incoming and outgoing text messages that will be forwarded directly to your pre-defined number. Our future proof software automatically deletes all the logging folders of any duplicated messages and the pre-defined number from the target phone.
Dial in and listen to the surrounding sounds and conversations coming from around the target phone from ANYWHERE in the world without any indication of connection. When the spy call is ended the phone stays in standby mode and the person with the spyphone will have no clue about your spy call. The intelligent software erases all call logging so even if the user entered the 'received call list' your number will not show. NOTHING will be found. When anyone else calls the spyphone, it rings and operates as a normal mobile phone.
Whenever the Target Phone (TP) makes or receives a call, a notification SMS is immediately sent to your mobile phone indicating the direction of call (incoming / outgoing) showing the actual number of Remote Party (RP). At this moment you have the option to make a call to the TP and intercept the conversation. The TP will create a conference and allow you to listen clearly to both sides of the call.
Our Software are compatible with most Windows Mobile 5.0 - 6.5 phones

IP address is called Internet Protocol and you will get this IP address in the website and internet devices like router or modem. With IP address, it is not possible to locate one address. Actually behind the website address, and unique IP address works. That IP address is called public IP address. Mainly the public IP address has nothing of headache. Many people think of Private IP address which is setup inside of the router and modem. Private IP address are also unique but those have some limitations. But the limitation continues based on the rules. There are some common IP addresses which are used in modem and router. Usually 192.168.1.1 IP address is very special IP address. There are different types of IP address are available but 192.168.1.1 has chosen by some manufacturers. This IP address is usually setup on the D-Link, Netgear and Linksys router. You may find some modems to use this IP address. There is no way to keep the router bank or without the IP address.
192.168.1.1 is a default IP address in router D-Link, Netgear and Linksys. Those are easy to change from the router control section. That is why, it is necessary to use The IP address, username and password. You need to use the default IP address 192.168.1.1 on the browser. Now hit the enter button and use username and password and login. However, find out the IP section where 192.168.1.1 IP address has been setup as default. Now change the IP address last one digit or two digits. You can use any number from 0 to 255. Now save the IP address. The default IP address is setup by the Manufacture and manufacturer also gives opportunities to change the IP address. If you do not know the changing the IP address method, then you may face problem. Usually, the IP address changing method is used when you have faced IP confliction error.
IP confliction does not let you use internet freely. That is why, you are forced to change the default IP address. If your all of the devices are using the IP 192.168.1.1, then you need to make those IP address unique. You can use the default IP 192.168.1.1 in a single device. You cannot use same IP address in all of the devices in the same network. If you try to use same IP address in the same network, then you cannot use internet. There is no any other solution for curing the IP confliction. You need to login router with the default login detail. You need to the default IP address 192.168.1.1, username and password. Usually, the default username and password are “admin” but you should check in the router manual or any separate sheet in the router or You may get information from behind the router to be confirm about username and password. Now you should log in the router and find out the location of the IP address 192.168.1.1. Now you need to change it according to the IP class.
There are many classes of IP address and the IP address 192.168.1.1 is in Class C. So, when you change the IP address 192.168.1.1 for making different, then you should change the digit from last of the IP address. You can use any number from 0 to 255 instead of X from 192.168.1.1. Now save the IP address and make it confirm. I think, you have solved the IP confliction problem. You can read manual for getting proper instruction of changing IP address and solution of the IP confliction or other troubleshooting. The default IP address 192.168.1.1 and other default IP address on different routers have no serious difference. But as some devices used 192.168.1.1 IP address as default, then you have to use it. You cannot setup any IP address as default.
By the Ping IP address, you can know more about the connectivity and this is why you need the default IP address 192.168.1.1 for D-Link, Netgear and Linksys routers. From the start menu click on the “Run” menu. On the run box type “CMD” and click on the Ok button. Now command prompt will run. On the command prompt window type the “ping 192.168.1.1” and hit on Enter key from keyword. Now result will appear and from the result it is easy to know about connection statues. If you get “Unreached” message, then the computer is not getting connection with router via the IP address 192.168.1.1. If you get result “Timed out …” then the problem has created from the internet connection. If you get message “Reply from 192.168.1.1 …” it means connections are ok. You need to use the Ping 192.168.1.1 command in the next step.
Every router come with the router reset button. You can use that button for resetting all settings and making every settings default. If your device default IP address 192.168.1.1 is not responding, then you can reset and 100% possibility to reset everything and fixed the problem but if you want to keep the setting as you setup, then you need to follow the step. You should ping the IP address from the CMD by “ping 192.168.1.1” and then you will get result if you get message “reply from 192.168.1.1: …” then the device is working properly. If you get error message, then you have to go to “Local Area Connection” from computer and then go to Properties. Now select the area “Internet Protocol Version 4” and click on “Properties” from the protocol. Select “Use the following IP address section” and put the IP address “192.168.0.11” or you can use different IP address based on the IP class and click on Subnet mask area and let it fill up auto. The default getaway will remain same IP address “192.168.1.1”. Choose DNS server area from your ISP and click ok. Now close the Window. If the problem is still continuing, then you have to reset the reset button. Now log in the router control panel using the 192.168.1.1 IP address and other user log in detail.
You already know that you can log in router with the IP address 192.168.1.1 and login detail. After log in you should setup security of the Wi-Fi, router and setup internet connection. Now your device is ready to work. You can login the router by the 192.168.1.1 anytime. That is why, you should keep the IP address, username and password in note. Now you should know all of the device before setup the IP address 192.168.1.1 or change the setting. You should read the manual before doing anything. However, you can change the default all of the settings.


Have you ever had trouble analyzing how the different television channels work? The various programs get facilitated by the existence of system technologies working ingeniously on earth and the sky. Cable television entails the delivery of television programs to subscribers who pay. Once a new television program is produced, it gets delivered via radio frequency signals which get transmitted using coaxial cables. Cable television differs from broadcast television in that, broadcast television, entails the transmission of signals through the air as radio waves. Then, the signals get received by the antennas connected to the tv. Some of the ways that cable TV works include;
Distribution through Fiber Optic Networks
On the release of a new program, broadcasters all over the world transmits it to satellites that are 22,300 miles above the earth. The satellites should be at fixed points above the equator. The signals spring back to earth and get generated over a wide area on earth. Local channels and cable channels in big cities get the signals through fiber-optic networks.
Fiber optic networks facilitate the transmission of the signal back and forth from the satellites at the same time. With fiber optics, many homes can access equal cable signals. With fiber optics, pictures are gets transmitted on the screens with close to no distortions. High-quality images and high definition sound is also achieved with fiber optics.
Processing of the signals using Antenna Farms
On the reception of the signals, the antenna farms on the cable television service companies work to process the signals. The antenna farm constitutes the antennas and the giant satellite dishes. The antennas receive different feeds which get modified to 200 channels before they get sent to customers on coaxial cables.
Amplifiers boost the signal strength
Embed within the cable system are amplifiers. They work to boost the strength of the signal. By this, the customers must have a signal receiver coupled with a hookup to receive the signal. Once everything is in place, the signal reaches to the customers at the right time. No delays.
Mobile Satellite Truck
A mobile satellite truck receives live feeds and transmits them to a satellite. The satellite then bounces the signal back to earth for distribution. On reaching the earth, the network gets distributed to other satellites such as the fiber optic network. At this point, the signal gets distributed to homes whereby it makes it possible for the people to watch live events.
In the past, no technology could record programs. However, the advancement in technology over the years has come along with more innovations. The TVs in the past had to receive signals from a camera and transmit it via radio waves to an antenna within the line of sight of the transmitter. The antennas were liable to translate the electric signals to a decent picture and sound.
After, the information is delivered to the television using a cable. For a clear picture, and quality sound, you had to adjust the antenna to receive a clear signal continually. If a barrier such as an object stood within the line of sight, the quality of the picture gets tampered. Same as in trains across Europe routes. When something blocks the path, you can’t go through.


Protect your loved ones, home, and property around the clock
Security and Fire Protection
Our family controllers provide proven protections with their UL Listed and CP-01 compliant security and fires system. INtrusion, smoke, fire, carbon monoxide, water, and other hazards are detected by either wired or wireless sesnsonrs.
Individual user codes can be set up for certain access on certain days. This is very useful if you have a maid, service worker, or landscaper.
In an emergency, our family systems can communicate with a central monitoring station and provide voice notifications to up to eight phone numbers.


It’s already official. WhatsApp will launch an enterprise-focused application that will help companies communicate effectively and securely with their customers. The tool is the bet of the platform, owned by Facebook, to start earning revenue because even though it will be free for small businesses or businesses large companies are expected to pay a monthly cost for the use of the application.
But how will this new tool work and how useful can it be for you? WhatsApp has pointed out that companies will have “a verified profile so that people can differentiate a company from anyone else, and an easier way to respond to messages.”
This means that when you see a green icon next to a contact’s profile name, it means that WhatsApp has verified that the phone number for that contact belongs to a company account.
” We’ve heard stories of business owners using WhatsApp to send messages to hundreds of customers from a single phone and also from people who are unsure whether a WhatsApp business is real or not,” the company said in a statement.
The company is conducting a pilot program and the Netherlands airline KLM is one of the companies participating in the initiative. Precisely in a video published on YouTube, they let you see what are the main features that the tool will have and how users can make the most of it.
WhatsApp has already informed that companies will be able to send their customers important notifications such as flight schedules, order confirmations and other updates.
In the video the airline shows how users can register their phone number to receive confirmation of flight check in, obtain boarding pass as well as receive information about possible delays or flight status. In addition users can write to this chat 24 hours a day, seven days a week to ask questions and requests such as changing the chair.
WhatsApp reported that messages between users and businesses are protected by end-to-end encryption. However, the company confirmed that “some companies may use service providers to manage their messages and those service providers may read the messages you send to those companies.”


You’ve all been hearing about the “Carrier IQ” fiasco/debacle/brouhaha, with the phone companies using this secretly-installed software to track all sorts of things on your cell phones. So far the Carrier IQ software has been installed on over 141 MILLION devices, but so far the details of exactly what the software does and specifically which devices have it installed are still forthcoming. Senator Franken of Minnesota is even asking the phone companies and hardware makers how they’re using the software and what info collecting from their customers.
The Verge got a great interview with Carrier IQ’s marketing vice president, which you can read here.

The new iPad supports fast cellular networks around the world — including 4G LTE networks in the U.S. and Canada.* So you can download content, stream video, and browse the web at amazing speeds. And if you’re in a location without a 4G LTE network, you’ll still get access to fast 3G networks including HSPA, HSPA+, and DC-HSDPA.
Ready to take on the world.
The new iPad offers the most comprehensive support for fast networks around the world. It’s designed with two cellular antennas tuned to 12 different bands that access a larger frequency spectrum. That means you can travel almost anywhere in the world and get online. And your connection is always fast. iPad with Wi-Fi + 4G models for AT&T and for Verizon connect to GSM/UMTS networks worldwide. But if you want a local connection when you’re traveling, just pop in a local SIM card.
Use iPad as a personal hotspot.
Where supported, iPad can share its high-speed data connection as a personal hotspot. You can connect up to five devices — such as a MacBook Air, an iPod touch, or another iPad — over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB.
Turn on 4G LTE data. Or turn it off. All from your iPad.
Tap Settings and choose Cellular Data. Then select a plan and enter your payment information.
Check your usage.
iPad lets you know when you’re about to reach your data limit so you can add more.
Adjust your plan.
If you want more data, you can sign up for a different plan — or cancel 4G LTE data service altogether — anytime, right from your iPad.


Fixing Time Warner Cable Ubee Modem Connectivity Issues
Recently we moved to a new apartment (first new place for me in 13 years!) and we moved our Time Warner Cable service. I would have loved to have been rid of them but, sadly, we need the data connection and FIOS isn’t an option (we moved to a Brownstone that hasn’t been wired yet). The guy came and hooked us up and replaced our previous modem with a combination modem/wifi router from Ubee. The thing looks totally Fisher Price and, frankly, was performing like crap. Connections were dropping. Pages were timing out. Browsers were hanging on “requesting page” or loading partially and then stalling out. I use a Time Capsule as our wifi router and that was connected to the Ubee via ethernet. I knew the Time Capsule was good (if you are having problems with your Airport base station roll it back to version 7.5.2, the 7.6 firmware is crap). So here’s how I fixed the problem:
- Log into the Ubee modem admin by going to http://192.168.0.1/TlModeChange.asp with user/user as username/password.
- Browsing through the settings I discovered that the wifi was on and forming a network that I had told them not to do (so much for security) and I shut that off.
- The key thing though is that you want to change the mode from “Gateway” to “Bridge”. That makes the modem *just* a modem and not a router (it sucks as a router). All I want is the data connection and Bridge gives me that.
- Go into Airport Utility and set your base station to “DHCP and NAT”.
Voila! You’ll have a clean fast internet connection. I’m getting about 20Mbps down and 1.95Mbps up.

Comprehending The Difference In Between Typical And Also Crossbreed Systems
A business telephone system, in some cases called a trunk or switchboard system, is a multi-line telephone network normally utilized in little to medium-sized service environments, encompassing telephone systems varying from the typical essential phone system to the much more contemporary exclusive branch exchange. Using an organization telephone system has actually contributed to increased efficiency and also cost-effectiveness, enabling better interaction in between inner customers as well as outside calls within the organisation. Reduced costs as well as potential raised performance are the primary benefits of purchasing this kind of communication system. A multi-line telephone network normally contains two or even more lines linked via a circuit network to an usual central changing system. Each line will run individually as well as can be utilized separately, in addition to having the ability to transfer as well as receive get in touch with the exact same lines while continuing to be confidential to every various other. An individual line may also be linked to a voicemail box, which immediately gets telephone calls when the holder of the line uses the offered number. This decreases or eliminates the requirement for staff members to utilize personal phone lines for individual telephone calls. A lot of modern-day company telephone systems use a virtual phone call queue, wherein phone calls are prioritised as well as the most vital calls are responded to first. In hectic workplace where numerous phone calls can be made in a brief room of time, the ability to instantly put phone calls without having to push the’unanswered’ option, aids to increase effectiveness and minimize missed out on telephone calls. Incoming and outbound telephone calls are directed via a dedicated path, established by an allocated gateway. Call directing is based upon elements such as the priority provided by the callers, the nature of the phone call, and the customer’s previous calls. Virtual phone systems utilise call forwarding to course calls in between inbound and also outbound telephone systems servers. Company phone systems are capable of transmitting both incoming as well as outgoing phone calls. This feature has actually dramatically reduced the time invested in responding to call, with a boost in productivity as well as efficiency. A hosted PBX provides lots of additional benefits. Company phone systems are offered with highly advanced functions such as call conferencing, caller ID, telephone call testing, voice message handling, automated call circulation, and also a lot more. Every one of these features are highly useful in running a successful organization. As an example, call testing processes to recognize which telephone calls are high risk, allowing the appropriate contact us to be passed to team. Callers can likewise choose to get voicemail, to make sure that they can leave their details at any moment, rather than being bombarded with an answering machine. Company telephone systems are additionally extremely versatile and can be personalized to satisfy the requirements of any type of organisation. It is clear to see why local business are transforming in the direction of organized PBX services, as this technology supplies the core features that a typical service telephone system does, but in a layout that is simpler to manage and accessibility. By moving your existing phone system to an organized PBX, you will certainly have the flexibility to take advantage of advanced functions, while saving cash on operating expenses. You can appreciate the same degree of performance that larger services have, while not incurring the expense of buying and maintaining a network of telephones. And, most importantly, the migration will certainly enable you to save time by preventing the extra costs connected with changing from a landline or cellular phone to a VoIP business telephone system. For companies intending to change their existing systems with an organized PBX solution, it is valuable to understand the difference between hybrid systems as well as conventional PBX remedies. Crossbreed systems use all the capability of a traditional PBX, whilst additionally being able to integrate VoIP into the business telephone system for even greater benefit. So, while a conventional phone system will offer the crucial features, a hybrid system will offer the added performance that is essential to run a smooth and also reliable organisation.

Free and open source solutions now exist for every component that is required to create a 4G cellular (LTE) network, all the way from the radio access network (RAN) and core, to services which are used for integrated voice (VoLTE). Creating a fully functional mobile network is the next logical step, but this requires overcoming the final remaining technical hurdles. This project will provide end-to-end integration of a FOSS technology stack for 4G networks, via a validated hardware and software configuration that is subjected to appropriate testing. Together with additional tooling and documentation for repeatable deployment, the project will making it far easier to create a self-contained 4G network than ever before. This is particularly timely given the availability of low cost software-defined radio (SDR) hardware, coupled with the efforts of wireless regulators to provide increased access to spectrum for private and community LTE networks.
For many people, especially those living in urban areas, mobile internet and mobile telephony literally just fall out of the sky. It’s there, invisibly. But of course, wireless communication is not really wireless: somewhere near, often discretely hidden, there is a powerful antenna on top of some specialised radio equipment. On one end that equipment establishes a radio link with our phone or tablet through electromagnetic waves, and on the other end it connects to the internet and the telephony network – through a fiber optic link or a copper cable.
After that explanation, we might think we understand a bit more how wireless communication works. But we run into new unknowns: how does that equipment actually work? Can we really trust it? How can we tell? Meanwhile, we heard enough warnings about the possibility of mobile network equipment being backdoored, and used to spy on people. And who decides which equipment is put where, what it costs to get access to the network and how our communication is protected? Now compare that to how you use your wifi at home: you also connect to a device over a radio link, but you control that device yourself. You can change the security settings yourself, add any device you want without having to ask for permission, and even take the whole device apart to see what it does. Wifi gives a lot more ownership.
If you consider how much wifi and mobile telephony resemble each other at a technical level, how odd is it that one technology is so close within our reach – and the other is really almost a black box? If someone would tell you that downloading a video your mom posted online would cost you 5 euro to download on your home wifi, you’d politely tell them to go away. If someone told you that they were very sorry but that your wifi is always going to be crappy because you live in a pocket of the network, you’d pick it up and put it somewhere else; or add another antenna, or change the equipment altogether. And if someone told you they would use your wifi signal strenght to inform some third party whenever you move from one room to the other, you’d be more than right to be angry. So why can’t mobile telephony be more like wifi?
This project is about building an open hardware mobile telephony and data network. It allows anyone – of course within the bounds of the applicable legislation – to learn about and experiment with mobile telephony. The goal is to produce a fully functional 4G network, with everything you would need to actually use it as a daily driver – and a lot of documentation to help you on your way. Everything can be inspected and modified from top to bottom. That way, you can make sure your own telecom network is fully trustworthy and private.

VoIP – (Voice Over Internet Protocol)
VoIP allows users to make phone calls over LANs (local area networks) or the internet. This allows people to talk to one another long-distance and around the world without having to pay long distance or international phone charges.
VoIP works by converting voice audio into packets of data that then travel through the internet like any other type of data such as text or pictures. These packets of sound data travel almost instantly through public and private internet networks to route from the origination to the destination.
What are the benefits of VoIP?
Cost- The initial setup and ongoing costs are less for operating a VoIP system than a more traditional phone system.
Accessibility- Distance or location makes no difference to a VoIP system, as long as you both have an internet connection, a communication is possible.
Flexibility- A VoIP network has a great deal of flexibility. With a VoIP network, you are limited only by bandwidth, so thousands of connections can conceivably be made.
Voice Quality- If you have a reliable internet connection with good bandwidth, you should experience voice quality that is the equal of, if not better than, a traditional phone connection.
With a dedicated leased line, the bandwidth you require has been given to you and only you have access to it. This means that your connection won’t be hampered by peak times throughout the day.
If you own or run your own business, you’ll already be aware of the impact slow internet connections can have. Downloading or sending large files, VoIP conference calls – all can be interrupted by a poor internet connection.
What are the benefits of AAG Leased Lines?
- Your office gets a private line so you never share the bandwidth with anyone else
- Guaranteed symmetric download and upload speeds, essential for services like VoIP
- You always have access to 100% of your line capacity, so you get what you pay for 24/7
- Better Quality of Service making it more efficient to run services like voice, video etc

Introducing a new signalling and control system through the Thameslink core
A world first on the mainline railway in passenger service
The implementation of the Thameslink Programme was carefully phased to ensure that a reliable service was maintained as the new signalling and control system was introduced, with Siemens and Network Rail working in close collaboration to deliver the High Capacity Infrastructure (HCI) programme.
The HCI programme provides the European Train Control System (ETCS) and enhanced signalling control systems needed to support automatic train operation (ATO) and timetable management, these systems being critical to the programme being able to reliably achieve the required 24 train per hour operation.
The introduction of this system means that when deployed across the Thameslink core and London Bridge areas, all train movements are controlled automatically from Network Rail’s new Three Bridges Rail Operating Centre, with every train running at the optimised speed profile and intervals, performing accurate stopping, and maintaining a strict adherence to station dwell times.
On 17 March 2018, GTR successfully ran the world’s first train operating ATO over ETCS on the mainline railway in passenger service. The southbound 8-car Thameslink train brought itself to a halt automatically at London St Pancras International at 13.53, having transitioned into ETCS Level 2 Full Supervision and then ATO on its approach from Kentish Town.
With the driver checking the platforms, closing the doors and then selecting ATO again, the train with its in-cab signalling then continued under automatic control through Farringdon, City Thameslink and London Blackfriars. It finally transitioned out of the system on its exit from London Blackfriars, as it headed towards Elephant & Castle.
What the project entailed
The implementation of the Thameslink Programme was carefully phased to ensure that a reliable service was maintained as the new signalling and control system was introduced, with Siemens and Network Rail working in close collaboration to deliver the High Capacity Infrastructure (HCI) programme. This key element in the programme provides the European Train Control System (ETCS) and enhanced signalling control systems needed to support automatic train operation (ATO) and timetable management, these systems being critical to the programme being able to reliably achieve the required 24 tph operation.
The introduction of ETCS and ATO followed a progressive programme of integration and system-testing. The first stage of this was completed in the System Integration laboratory, the programme’s hardware test environment which was engineered and built by Siemens in collaboration with Network Rail. With successful results here, further extensive trials were undertaken at the ETCS National Integration Facility (ENIF), where the new Siemens Class 700 train was also introduced.
With testing continuing at ENIF, a series of tests was also undertaken in the Thameslink core. In Autumn 2015, Network Rail completed the first ETCS trials through central London, with the Network Rail ETCS test train completing a series of tests between Elephant and Castle and Kentish Town on weekends in October and November. The equipment worked first time and demonstrated the technically demanding transition from traditional signalling to ETCS. During 2016 and 2017, further testing was then successfully carried out with the new Siemens Class 700 trains between Blackfriars and St Pancras.
The introduction of this system means that when deployed across the Thameslink core and London Bridge areas, all train movements are controlled automatically from Network Rail’s new Three Bridges Rail Operating Centre, with adherence to station dwell times. Siemens’ continuous automatic train protection (ATP) system, provided as part of the ETCS, means that it does all of this with a high level of safety protection.
ETCS provides continuous automatic train protection (ATP), enabling the train-borne ATO unit to drive the train within the speed and distance limits set by the ETCS system. This allows the trains to be safely managed at closer intervals, allowing a greater throughput of traffic. If the speed or distance limits are exceeded, then ETCS will intervene and return the train to a safe state.
From the automatic train regulation (ATR) within the control system, the ATO unit also receives a ‘target arrival time’ for the next station, enabling it to fine tune the train’s speed for optimum performance. Once ETCS is engaged, drivers on Siemens’ new Class 700 trains, accept automatic control on arriving at the ATO boundary, normally with the train continuing on the move, with a transition back to manual control at the end of the ATO-controlled area.
Although ETCS allows trains to use the Thameslink core lines more efficiently, by managing the signalling directly to the train through the radio block centre (RBC), the conventional signalling system in the area has been retained, allowing ‘non-ETCS’ traffic to use the lines.
To achieve an operational 24 tph timetable, the signalling and control system has a design capability of 30 tph in both directions, to allow for recovery from any perturbation.
ATO opens the train’s doors immediately it stops in order to meet a 45 second dwell time – allowing passengers time to embark and disembark before train dispatch. To maintain passenger safety, door closing is manually controlled by the driver.
An integral component of the £7bn Thameslink Programme, the High Capacity Improvement project has provided the European Train Control System (ETCS) and enhanced signalling control systems needed to support automatic train operation (ATO) and timetable management. These systems are crucial to the programme being able to reliably increase train frequency from 16 to 24 tph in each direction through the core Thameslink area from Blackfriars to St Pancras.
The success of the programme can be seen with the world’s first train running ATO over ETCS in passenger service on a mainline railway. It will however also be seen as the frequency of train services increases over time from 18 tph through 20 and 22 tph before ultimately hitting 24, when Thameslink will offer a tube-like service of trains every 150 seconds through the central London Thameslink core.
The Thameslink Programme lays the foundations for the biggest transformation in services that this part of the rail network has seen in decades. The new, high frequency timetable takes advantage of the new infrastructure to provide more capacity, new journey options and better connections for passengers across London and the south east.
From a sustainability perspective, the use of digital technology has meant that the project hasn’t needed the same level of civil engineering works that would be required by a conventional solution, the programme utilising the existing infrastructure in a smart way, rather than digging up swathes of the network. The system is also ‘future-proof’, with the capability to support additional capacity through the Thameslink area, if required.
When deployed for the first time across the Thameslink core area, the enhanced control system and ETCS protection enabled the train-borne ATO unit to achieve the necessary driving performance at closer intervals and greater throughput – both of which are required to achieve the 24 tph timetable.
Given the complexity and sheer scale of the project, collaboration has been at its core, with Siemens and Network Rail adopting a ‘one team’ approach to successfully deliver the programme. This has effectively taken collaboration to a new level, with a complete transparent operation helping to overcome any obstacles that the programme threw up.
The roles in the team were assigned to the best person for the job (regardless of their organisational allegiance), with the team then encouraged to identify solutions to problems as they occurred – rather than escalate them up the organisations’ hierarchies as may previously have been done. Put simply, project behaviour has changed from ‘escalation mode’ to ‘solution mode’, such that solutions are now developed rather than problems escalated.
The success of this approach, in a highly-pressurised environment, can be seen by the fact that the majority of the team are still in the team – having benefited from working on a challenging and technologically innovative programme.
The Thameslink project will be the first operational application of full ATO functions over ETCS, certainly in the UK, and possibly the world and is Siemens’ first operational application of ETCS (both for the infrastructure and on-board) in the UK. The introduction of ATO represents a vital part of the high-capacity timetable planned for the route and means that every train runs at the optimised speed profile, performs accurate stopping, and advises the driver to adhere to strict station dwell times.
As a world-first, the project has delivered a great many lessons for the future deployment of digital solutions, not least through the skills and experience that have been gained by the members of the combined project team, all of whom are now eager and equipped to deliver such schemes in future.
We have also trained up and invested in the next generation of railway engineers, creating the industry’s future leaders. The team of graduates that entered the programme are now fully-fledged professionals, with invaluable experience of ETCS which the industry will need as digital technology is rolled out.
The project’s legacy is clearly in the high-performance railway that it has provided, but from a broader industry viewpoint, it is also evident in the well-trained and exceptionally capable team of engineers that are now available across the wider supply chain. The legacy therefore is that the project has created an industry that is capable of executing projects repeatedly.

Multi-source multi-destination (MSMD) wireless model is developed for wireless devices to share the limited spectrum resource in the same communication channel, which induces the mutual interference with each other. To reduce or even cancel the mutual interference in MSMD network, various techniques were proposed in literatures, including beamforming design for multi-user multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channels and cooperative relaying strategy. In addition, power control is a critical issue as the performance at each destination depends not only on power allocation of its corresponding source, but also on the power allocation of other sources. An optimal power control strategy helps to manage the interference between each pair of source-destination, thus further improves the overall system performance. Hence a design to optimize power allocation to efficiently apply the MIMO techniques and cooperative relaying protocol becomes more attractive for MSMD networks.
In this dissertation, we analyze the performance improvement and develop optimal power allocation strategy for MSMD MIMO and relaying network based on optimize methodology, approximation theory and game theory. We aim to develop optimal strategies with low complexity for power allocation in MSMD network by considering two optimization models. (1) Power minimization subject to Quality of Service (QoS) constraints, including Signal to Noise plus Interference Ratio (SINR) and outage probability. (2) QoS maximization subject to power constraints.
First, we develop an optimal transceiver beamforming strategy to minimize the total power of sources subject to SINR constraints for a MSMD network where MIMO technique is applied in both sources and destination. We propose a distributed algorithm to find a Nash optimal solution and provide a necessary condition and a sufficient condition to the existence and the uniqueness of Nash optimal solution. We show that the probability of convergence of the proposed algorithm is higher than earlier work.
Though Nash optimal solution is easy to obtain in practical, yet it is not efficient in terms of overall power consumption. Thus we further develop a more efficient algorithm for transceiver beamforming design for MSMD MIMO network with pricing consideration in order to find a Pareto optimal solution, which is more efficient than Nash solution in terms of overall power efficiency. We also compare the proposed algorithm over another two alternatives to show our advantage. In convergence analysis, we provide a sufficient and a necessary condition to the convergence of the algorithm. Different from most of earlier related work, where only single antenna at destination was considered, our transceiver design is also applicable to the scenario where multi-antennas are deployed in each destination.
MIMO beamforming technology does open an avenue for us to improve the performance of MSMD network. However, due to space and cost limitation, MIMO technique might not be available in some applications. As an alternative, cooperative relaying is a promising technologies to improve the performance of MSMD network. To discuss the optimal power allocation strategies in MSMD relaying network, we start from the optimal power allocation design in a single-source single-destination relay network with Differential Amplify-and-Forward (DAF) protocol. With our simple approximation of outage probability for a DAF scheme, we are able to propose a simple solution to optimize the power allocation, which is a tight approximation to the accurate optimal power allocation verified by our numerical results. In addition, we also provide an optimal relay location design and joint power and relay location strategy for a DAF relaying protocol to further improve the overall system performance.
Differing from the single-source single-destination relay network, the performance analysis for MSMD relay network is more complicated due to the effect of the generated interference between each pair of users. By considering the SINR and its approximation of each user, we are able to develop an optimal power allocation strategy for MSMD relaying network to guarantee the minimal SINR of each user is satisfied. With an approximation of SINR representation, we propose low complexity algorithms to optimize the power assignment for MSMD relaying network, where two scenarios are investigated, minimization of total power subject to SINR constraints and maximization of minimal SINR subject to total power constraint. The results obtained by the proposed algorithms are shown to be very close to those obtained by exhaustive search, while the former outperforms the latter in terms of very low computation complexity.

Wireless gadgets are devices that integrate and utilize wireless technology in their operation and application. Wireless technology has proved to be a boon in communications as it offers us access to networks without the use of wires and cables which can only reach so far. Cell phones, radios, paging transmitters and many of the communications gadgets we use all run on wireless technology in one form or another.
The benefits of wireless technology are of more importance in industrial and law enforcement settings, where access to real-time data is needed. Take radio modems, for example, which function using radio waves. These waves are independent of satellite and telecommunication networks utilized by ordinary users which mean there’s less congestion and transmitting of data is much faster. Of course, certain factors determine how well the Modems work such as radiosensitivity, antenna height and the construction of the system.
Examples of Wireless Communication Gadgets
Paging transmitters are significant examples of radio communications systems which are still widely used despite the emergence and widespread use of cell phones. These simple gadgets have none of the fancy features mobile phones support. Messaging is possible, however, as is the provision of beeps or tones and voice messaging.
The biggest benefit of Pagers is their ability to cover a wider network as compared to cell phones. Mobile phone networks can only extend so far. The farther down in a building one goes, for example, the less likely he is to have phone reception. In settings such as hospitals which are large, relying solely on cell phones is impractical which is why paging transmitters are regularly used.
This wireless gadget continues to be utilized to the fullest. It’s used for critical communications by law enforcement authorities, firefighters, paramedics and space shuttle astronauts as well as by ordinary citizens with a love for wireless technology.
Cell phones, TV broadcasts, RC toys, satellite communications and garage door openers are all wireless gadgets which rely on wireless technology through radio waves to function.
Limitations of Wireless Gadgets
There are a few limitations to wireless technology that bears looking into:
*Unlike wired gadgets that work well so long as the cables can be extended, wireless gadgets cannot cover hundreds of miles. Certain areas outside the network can’t be accessed, so if you were to go out of these zones, communication wouldn’t be possible. Of course, this is not so much a limitation as an accepted aspect of all communications systems because even wired technology can extend only so far.
*Wireless gadgets run on batteries which mean you must have an ample battery storage capacity. What has changed over the years is the use of rechargeable batteries. So instead of purchasing new batteries every time they drain, all that’s needed is access to a power outlet to have them charge to their full state.
As is evident, most communications systems we use today rely on wireless technology because the benefits far outweigh the few limitations. No other technology has created such a massive market for wireless gadgets, and there’s no doubt that this demand will continue to be sustained for many more decades.
It’s safe to say that, it is perhaps one of the most significant discoveries humans have made and the loss of which will propel us decades into the past.
