Weather station, e.g. consumer weather station, for locally measuring e.g. pressure, has sensor, where station has unit exchanging data with remote server and mobile telephone by using global system for mobile communication type network

Ghanem Karim Ben, +1 more
TLDR
In this article, the authors present an exchange unit exchanging a data with a remote server (18) and a mobile telephone (50) by using a global system for mobile communication (GSM) type network.
Abstract: 
The station has a sensor (12) e.g. thermometer, measuring temperature. The station has an exchange unit exchanging a data with a remote server (18) and a mobile telephone (50) by using a global system for mobile communication (GSM) type network (20). The station transmits short message service (SMS) type messages, by a data transmission unit (14), during the exchange of the data with the server. The station has a unit (16) receiving the data. The messages have meteorological observations data representing the temperature and data representing date and hour at which measurements are performed.

Method and apparatus for coupling an antenna to a device

Paul Shala Henry, +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a system that receives, by a feed point of a dielectric antenna, electromagnetic waves from a core coupled to the feed point without an electrical return path, and radiates a wireless signal responsive to the electromagnetic waves being received at the aperture.

Guided-wave transmission device with non-fundamental mode propagation and methods for use therewith

Paul Shala Henry, +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a coupler couples the first electromagnetic wave to a single wire transmission medium having an outer surface, to forming a second electromagnetic wave that is guided to propagate along the outer surface of the single-wire transmission medium via at least one guided wave mode that includes an asymmetric or non-fundamental mode having a lower cutoff frequency.
