Abstract: A method and device for processing a received signal by detecting within the received signal a plurality of possible symbols transmitted by or for a plurality K of users, each of the plurality of possible symbols belonging to a modulation constellation and being the subject of a spectral spreading by a spreading sequence. The step of detecting includes substeps of: a) filtering the received signal by supplying a complex vector characteristic of the received signal and decomposing the complex vector into real and imaginary vectors; b) separately searching for a closest neighbor of the real vector and a closest neighbor of the imaginary vector within a respective real and imaginary lattice of points corresponding to the modulation constellation; and c) estimating the transmitted symbols from components of the closest neighbor of the real vector and the closest neighbor of the imaginary vector to produce a vector of estimated symbols.

Abstract: The invention relates to a textile fabric consisting of natural fibres, preferably bast fibres and especially hemp fibres, that are compacted by means of fluid beams. Surprisingly, coarsely retted bast fibres having a high portion of short fibres, fibre dusts and other fibre escort substances can be processed by means of fluid beam hardening to form textile fabrics having a high tear strength. Surprisingly good processing can be put down to the fact that fibre felting occurs in addition to the usual fibre interlacing caused by the short fibres and fibre dusts.

Abstract: A process is provided for the production of dicalcium phosphate form a phosphate source material in which a solution of phosphoric acid is produced by the action of a suitable mineral acid, generally sulphuric acid, on a phosphate source material. Calcium fluoride is precipitated at a pH of between 3.5 and 4.5 followed by hydrolyzing the solution by diluting it with water to a ratio of approximately 1:7 to about 1:10 monocalcium phosphate to water at a temperature of approximately 40 degrees Centigrade to form a primary precipitate containing substantially all of the fluoride present as CaF<SUB>2 </SUB>together with some dicalcium phosphate and a primary calcium and phosphate containing solution. The primary precipitate is dissolved, the pH adjusted to form 3.5 to 4.5 and the hydrolyzation repeated to form a secondary precipitate containing substantially all of the fluoride present as CaF<SUB>2 </SUB>together with some dicalcium phosphate and a secondary calcium and phosphate containing solution. The secondary precipitate can optionally, if required, by again processed in the same way to recover more phosphates. The product dicalcium phosphate is recovered from the combined calcium and phosphate containing solutions.

Abstract: The combination of narrowband applications with broadband transport is enabled by combining a first node having narrowband ability with a second node having broadband ability in which call control functionality of the first node is provided to the second node. Both the first node and the second node have connection control functionality for switching data information of a given call. However, the broadband second node receives signaling information from the narrowband first node, which has call control functionality, over one or more links to enable the second node to switch a call in accordance with determined call control instructions. The combination of the narrowband first node and the broadband second node results in a hybrid switch that is capable of operating with both synchronous transfer mode (STM) networks and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks.
