Abstract: The invention concerns a method of modifying a residual echo present in a residual near-end signal (12b) of a telecommunications connection (8), an echo canceller (81) with a linear processing unit and a non-linear processing unit (4) for modifying said residual echo, and a computer program product to execute this method. The telecommunications connection (8) exists between a first terminal (1) providing a primary near-end signal (12a) at a first end of the telecommunications connection (8) and a second terminal (2) providing a far-end signal (21) at another end of the telecommunications connection (8). The residual near-end signal (12b) is created from the primary near-end signal (12a) by a linear processing unit for echo cancellation. In a multi-windowing scheme in the time domain, a plurality of sub-windows (711, 712, ..., 71 N) of the far-end signal (21) is determined. From said plurality of far-end signal sub-windows (711, 712, ..., 71 N) a sub-window (712) corresponding to a main portion of an echo present in the primary near-end signal (12a) according to an echo path estimate filter is selected. An energy level associated with said selected sub-window (712) of the far-end signal (21) is compared with an energy level associated with a sample of the residual near-end signal (12b). Dependent on the comparison result, said residual echo is modified for a time period which is equal to a length of said selected far-end signal sub-window (712).

Abstract: A wireless telecommunications network may include parts that operate at different packet transfer delays, so that a mobile terminal undergoing handover from one node to another experiences different delays before and after handover. An additional delay is applied during the handover process to packets sent to the mobile terminal via the node at the smaller delay so as to reduce the difference between the two delays. The additional delay may be applied at an anchor node connecting parts of the wireless network of different radio access technology types or at other parts of the network. Information regarding packet transfer delays may stored and accessed to determine the delays for nodes involved in handover and/or obtained by measurements made during a call, for example.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety switching apparatus (10) and to a method for safely turning on and off an electric consumer (22), in particular a system (16) operating in an automated manner. The apparatus (10) comprises a first port (32) for a first signalling element (18), a second port (34) for a second signalling element (20), and a first switching device (40) which is coupled to a first switching trip (36), and a second switching device (42) which is coupled to a second switching trip (38). A time-monitoring device (60) activates the first and second switching trips (36, 38) only when there is less than a predetermined maximum time duration (T<SUB>max</SUB>) between an actuation of the signalling elements (18, 20). The activation of the switching trips (36, 38) in turn causes the switching devices (40, 42) to be switched on, and hence the consumer (22) to be turned on. The activation of the switching trips (36, 38) requires the switching-on of first and second switching elements (48, 52) which are each arranged in series with the switching trips (36, 38). In one aspect of the invention, the time monitoring involves providing at least a first microcontroller (56) which is designed to detect actuations of the signalling elements (18, 20) and to switch on the switching elements (48, 52) if there is less than the maximum time duration (T<SUB>max</SUB>).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for axially connecting an external pipe section to a coaxial peg or internal pipe section that engages in the external pipe section, in particular for connecting the drain connecting piece of an injector for injecting fuel into internal combustion engines to a fuel return connector. The external pipe section has two diametrically opposed retaining slots that penetrate the wall of the external pipe section and which correspond to grooves on the periphery of the peg or internal pipe section. Two opposing sprung retaining arms of a clamp-type retaining clip pass through the retaining slots of the external pipe section from the exterior and snap into the grooves of the peg or internal pipe section in a sprung manner. One essential feature of the invention is that the parallel retaining slots of the external pipe section are offset in height in relation to one another, while the whole of the retaining clip, when not fitted onto the pipe sections, lies on one plane.
