Abstract: A dielectric heating system with which the power density applied to the product being treated can be at least doubled without risk of electric arcs. This invention is particularly suitable for treatment of compounds that absorb electromagnetic waves weakly (low dielectric constants). In particular, fatty substances such as oils, butters, waxes and fats can be treated (refining, hydrolysis, transesterification, interesterification, etc.), derivatives thereof (esterification, polymerization, alcoholysis, ethoxylation, hydrogenation, etc.) under static or dynamic conditions, as can hydrocarbons and aromatic compounds. This system can also be used advantageously for polar or polarized compounds, because the power absorbed is increased very significantly, with large production gains. In particular, fatty or non-fatty alcohols (oleic alcohol, glycol, glycerol, mannitol, sorbitol, polyglycerols, vitamins, etc.), carboxylic acids, amines and similar compounds can be treated under static or dynamic conditions.

Abstract: An acoustic wave switch includes a substrate with an acoustic wave cavity formed therein such that the mass per unit area of the acoustic cavity is greater than the mass per unit area of the substrate adjacent the cavity. A transducer is mounted on the acoustic cavity for generating an acoustic wave that is substantially trapped in the cavity. A touch on the touch surface of the acoustic wave cavity absorbs acoustic wave energy and produces a detectable change in the impedance of the transducer. Various feedback mechanisms can be employed to provide a user with a tactile, audible and/or visual response indicating actuation of the switch by a touch.

Abstract: In a cellular communication system in which adjacent cells (CA, CB) dynamically contend each other the same radio resources and in which the common control physical channels conveying the bi-directional signalling during the access phases are at least partly located onto dynamically allotted traffic channels, the exploitation of the radio resources utilised during access phases is optimised by reconfiguring the common control physical channels in order to follow fluctuations of radio resources sharing among said adjacent cells. The reconfiguration is carried out by shifting common channels which are located on radio resources exhibiting a high level of interference to radio resources exhibiting a lower level of interference, so as to maximise the number of common channels groups which only comprise channels located on scarcely interfered resources. <IMAGE>
