20090032083 | Solar Collection Device - Solar collection devices make use of (a) an absorption body including luminescent material and (b) photovoltaic (PV) cells placed at the edges of the absorption body. The luminescent material absorbs solar radiation and generates luminescent radiation of a different wavelength. The PV cells receive the luminescent radiation and convert it into electrical energy. The devices have one or more of the following characteristics:—(a) the luminescent material is such that part of the radiation is converted into electrical energy and part of the radiation is transmitted; (b) the PV cells are bifacial, i.e. will generate electricity in response to radiation from both sides; (c) the PV cells have electrodes which do not lie between the PV cell and the luminescent body; and (d) the constitution and/or dimensions of the PV cells and/or of the luminescent body are selected so as to provide a desired result, e.g. a desired spatial variation in the generation of luminescent radiation, a desired spatial variation in the ratio of absorption to transmission, or more uniform generation of current in the different PV cells. | 02-05-2009 |
20090120488 | Luminescent solar concentrator devices - A relatively large field of laminated fluorescent square LSC tiles are interdigitated by long thin bi-facial silicon photovoltaic cells. The laminated fluorescent LSC tiles each comprise a thick clear substrate bonded to a fluorescent dye film with a mirror backing and a protective layer. Incident sunlight is received by the clear substrate's face, and the dye converts that to fluorescent light. The resulting fluorescent light can only escape out the perimeter edges of the clear substrate where the photovoltaic cells are positioned. Each silicon photovoltaic cell receives fluorescent light laterally from the adjacent and opposite edges of the two fluorescent LSC tiles it separates. The collection area of the face of each fluorescent LSC tile is very large compared to the areas of the edges, and so highly concentrated light is provided to relatively small area photovoltaic cells for conversion to electricity. | 05-14-2009 |

20100085937 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INBOUND ROAMING IN IP MULTIMEDIA SUBSYSTEM NETWORKS - A system and method for enabling a UE to roam to a visited IMS-based network from a home network that does not have an IMS infrastructure. A visiting UE sends to an Intelligent Roaming Application Server (I-RAS) in the visited network, a first SIP Registration message that includes a SIP URI identifying the UE as a visitor from a home network that does not have an IMS infrastructure. The I-RAS rejects the registration, but includes a temporary Tel URI in the rejection message. The UE sends a second Registration message using the temporary Tel URI, which is forwarded to a Visited S-CSCF for authentication. The S-CSCF returns authentication vectors, which the UE uses to compute ciphering parameters and establish an IPSEC connection with a Visited P-CSCF. The UE then sends a third Registration message, which is accepted, and registration in the visited network is complete. The I-RAS acts as a pseudo Visited MSC/VLR and performs an update location procedure with the visiting UE's home network. | 04-08-2010 |
