Abstract: it is desc.pi.bed a method of measurement of the volume V D of the flow-rate of electrically conductive liquids the conductivity of which is at least codetermined by at least one parameter p, wherein the liquid flows through a vessel having a predetermined shape, and wherein the respective filling volume V o is determined by at least one measured value x, which is measured by an electrical conductivity measuring device comprising electrodes, wherein the vessel is filled in succession and then is emptied through its outlet, through which the filling heights h are constantly changing. At least one reference table comprising calibration measured values X R and filling volumes V o belonging to them is constructed by means of calibration measurements using several liquid samples, which have different p-values and different filling heights h in the vessel. The measured values x are measured in time intervals and the respective filling volumes V o are determined by comparison of the respective measured values x with values X R of the table, and the volume V D of the rate of flow is determined from the filling volumes V o over a time period. The measuring device (10) for the determination of the volume V D of flow rate of electrically conductive liquids through a vessel (5) comprises at least two measuring electrodes (22, 24).

IPC: H04W40/22

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate scheduling over multiple hops in a wireless communication network. Radio resources can be partitioned into sets of sub-frames that can be allocated statically and/or dynamically. Statically allocated radio resources can be reassigned over time based on the loading on each hop and/or throughput imbalance. In addition, dynamic assignment of sub-frames to each hop can be based on traffic or channel conditions. Moreover, the radio resources can be dynamically allocated in a distributed scheme, wherein a base station controls the scheduling of resources, or a centralized scheme, wherein a relay station controls the scheduling of resources. Furthermore the allocation of radio resources can be transparent or explicit.  In the transparent case, the access terminal listens directly to the base station, and the relay station does not transmit control information, such as DL or UL assignments.  Conversely, when the allocation of resources is explicit the relay station does transmit control information.

Abstract: What is claimed is a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) with anionic and/or cationic properties and retarded swelling action, which was prepared by polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated vinyl compounds. This SAP is characterized in that its swelling begins no earlier than after minutes and in that it was prepared with the aid of at least one process variant selected from the group of a) polymerizing the monomer components in the presence of a combination consisting of at least one hydrolysis-stable crosslinker and at least one hydrolysis-labile crosslinker; b) polymerizing at least one permanently anionic monomer and at least one hydrolysable cationic monomer; c) coating a core polymer component with at least one further polyelectrolyte as a shell polymer; d) polymerizing at least one hydrolysis-stable monomer with at least one hydrolysis-labile monomer in the presence of at least one crosslinker.   Owing to the variability of the three preparation alternatives with regard to the starting materials and the process conditions, but also owing to the possible combinations with one another, the present invention can provide superabsorbent polymers which are suitable especially for use in foams, mouldings and fibres, but also as carriers for plant growth- and fungal growth-regulating agents, and for controlled release of active ingredients, or in construction materials. The present polymers are suitable especially for use as construction material additives.
