Abstract: A system and method for effectively and reliably terminating a voice call in any burst within a multi-burst superframe. A transmitting unit generates a termination burst upon detecting a dekey event. The termination burst includes a data synchronization pattern, a slot type field indicating an end of a call, and an information field surrounding the data synchronization pattern and the slot type field. The information field is encoded from a predetermined voice encoder frame unique to the termination burst. Once all buffered voice information is transmitted, the termination burst is transmitted prior to the end of the multi-burst superframe. A base station or other receiving unit monitors the incoming signal. Upon detecting the data synchronization pattern, the receiving unit decodes the slot type field and the information field. The receiving unit determines whether the decoded slot type field is indicative of the end of a call, and whether a specific portion of the decoded information field matches the predetermined voice encoder frame. If both are true, the receiving unit terminates the call.

Abstract: A vascular prosthesis is disclosed, comprising a forked tube, having: an inflow tube with an inflow end (6); a primary distal outflow branch with a primary distal outflow end (8); and a secondary proximal outflow branch with a secondary proximal outflow end (7). The two outflow ends are directed in different directions and the two outflow branches in the vicinity of the bifurcation (9) have different cross-sectional areas. Further, the secondary proximal outflow branch is more curved than the primary distal outflow branch, and the secondary proximal outflow branch in the vicinity of the bifurcation has a smaller cross-sectional area than the primary distal outflow branch. Hereby, energy losses at flow bifurcations is adapted to the bypass situation to even out the level of shear stress, thereby avoiding areas with low shear stress and decreasing the tendency for turbulent flow, thus reducing the risk of graftstenosis.

Title: Method for purifying mineral oil fractions and device suited to carrying out the method
Inventor: LATZ JOCHEN
IPC: C10G45/22

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for reducing the organic sulfur content in a sulfur-containing liquid fuel, wherein the sulfur-containing fuel is first brought in contact with a hydrogen-containing gas in a presaturator and subsequently the hydrogen-enriched liquid fuel is brought in contact with a suitable adsorbent in a reactor, wherein the adsorbent is able to adsorb at least part of the sulfur and/or of the sulfur compound from the fuel at the surface. The contact with the adsorbent can advantageously take place not only at higher temperatures of approximately 400°C, but also at moderate temperatures, as low as to room temperature, because the use of liquid fuel ensures very good contact between the fuel and the surface of the adsorbent, and therefore ensures reduction of the sulfur content.
