Abstract: The invention relates to a magnetic closure (100), wherein a base part (12) lockably engages with a head part (11) and the lock can only be released from outside by the effect of a key magnet (10). Said key magnet (10) transmits a torque on a ring magnet (14) present in the head part (11) by means of at least two poles (N, S) so that the ring magnet is turned about its ring axis. The turning of the ring magnet (14) causes, either by means of a follower (15) or directly, two latch elements (17, 29) to be forced apart against the force of a spring (metal, rubber or the like). The latch elements (17, 29), by being forced apart, are transferred from a locking position to an opening position. In the locking position, they engage with the annular groove (20) on a base part (12) that is inserted in the head part (11). In the opening position, they are disengaged and the base part (12) can be removed from the insertion opening (28) of the head part (11).

Abstract: A method of simultaneously determining a DC offset and a channel impulse response from a received signal in a mobile communication system. The received signal comprising a set of training sequence bits that have been modulated prior to transmission. The modulated signals experience a certain phase shift and are rotated by a certain angle. The received signal may also comprise a DC offset component that needs to be removed By manipulation of the received signal samples with the knowledge of the original training sequence and method of modulation used, it is possible to simultaneously estimate the communication channel's impulse response and the DC offset by finding the Least Squares solution to a linear equation, such that the energy of the noise term introduced into the communication channel may be kept to a minimum. An improved technique utilising a priori information is also described.
