Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for enabling a mobile unit
to communicate with a plurality of Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMN:s).
The mobile unit is provided with an emulator arranged to emulate a
Subscription Identity (SI) based on a set of International Mobile
Subscriber Identity (IMSI) and Key identifier (Ki) provided to the
emulator. The method is characterized in making a plurality of IMSI/Ki
sets available to the mobile unit, preferably by transmitting said
plurality of IMSI/Ki sets provided by a memory deposit to said mobile
unit via wireless communication, and automatically changing the emulated
SI during on-going communication by selecting an IMSI/Ki set from
said plurality of available IMSI/Ki sets, providing said selected
IMSI/Ki set to the emulator, and emulating an SI accepted by one of said
PLMN:s. 
Through the inventive method, the mobile unit can be connected to any
given PLMN, simply by providing the suitable IMSI and Ki to the
circuitry means, which can then emulate an SI accepted by the desired
PLMN.

Abstract: The invention provides a head-up display suitable for a
motorcycle. 
     An image 31 is present in peripheral
fields 49 outside a 90% center field 48. In the case
where the image 31 is located outside the 90% center
field 48, it does not obstruct the drive of the vehicle,
and in the case where the image 31 is located in the
peripheral fields 49, it allows a driver to dimly see the
shape of the image 31 and thereby recognize the presence
of the image 31. For this reason, the image 31 is located
in the peripheral fields 49. 
     Since an image is located in a peripheral field,
the presence of the image can be recognized by a driver
while not obstructing a desirable visibility to the front
side of the driver. The driver can recognized, on the
basis of the presence or absence of the image, whether or
not attention should be taken to drive of the vehicle.

Abstract: Counting of data, namely calculation of collecting
rate for respective users or kinds in a collecting center
which collects various kinds of used office supplies is
extremely complex and troublesome. For this reason, a
client who requests collecting accesses a collecting system
and requests collecting of the used office supplies. The
collecting system stores collecting data of the kind and
quantity of the used office supplies to be collected
associated with users in a memory and transmits a collecting
code corresponding to the collecting data to the client.
The client generates a collecting slip including the
collecting code received and dispatches the used office
supplies with the collecting slip attached to the
collecting center. The collecting center reads out the
collecting code recorded on the collecting slip attached
to the used office supplies dispatched and calculates the
collecting rate for respective users and used office
supplies based on the collecting code.

Abstract: In an apparatus and a method for isolating a first section (1) of an electrical
grid from a second section (2) of the electrical grid, an islanding detection
means (11) determines whether the first grid section (1) is switched off, and a
disconnecting device (13,13',13",12) isolates the first section (1) from the
second section (2) of the grid. The islanding detection means (11) is
implemented as a part of a substation control system of an electrical
substation (10), and the disconnecting device is a circuit breaker (13,13',13")
or disconnector (12) of the electrical substation. 
     As a result, the islanding protection protects the first grid section (1) from
islanding operation by separating it from all distributed power generating
