Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a fuel cell, particularly for switching off a fuel cell. In order to switch off the fuel cell, the supply of the gas mixture comprising oxygen and nitrogen is interrupted, wherein the oxygen present at the cathode reacts with the protons present by means of conversion, and the residual oxygen content at the cathode side of the fuel cell is lowered in this manner. Due to the method according to the invention, the fuel cell may be better stored, wherein a de-fined low chemical potential is applied at both electrodes.

Abstract: Techniques for sending control information in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, a hierarchical control channel structure may be used, a first group of control channels may be sent in a low reuse segment, and a second group of control channels may be sent in a non-reuse segment. In another aspect, a first control channel is sent in the low reuse segment and is used to configure a second control channel sent in the non-reuse segment so that the second control channel can be reliably received in dominant interference scenarios. In one design, a first base station sends a first message on a first control channel to a user equipment (UE). The UE sends a second message to an interfering base station to request it to reduce interference to a second control channel. The first base station sends control information on the second control channel to the UE.
