Abstract: The present invention relates to an energy efficient mechanism for establishing and maintaining a communication between nodes (A..F) in a wireless communication system. In particular, it relates to a distributed low power medium access control (MAC) mechanism for sharing the communication means in a wireless communication system. According to the present invention a destination node (A) listens to a communication channel periodically. For requesting services from the destination node (A), a wake-up signal (WU) is transmitted from a source node (B) to the destination node (A) via the communication channel, wherein the wake-up signal (WU) is formed by a preamble (WP) and an information for controlling the communication between nodes (A..F). The WU signal duration and content is adapted depending on the system operation context to reduce either idle times, power consumption, latency or network blocking (collision avoidance).

Abstract: The present invention is a flow distributor and integral bed support for a chromatography column. The flow distributor has an outlet extending through it and a bottom face across which is secured a bed support. The bottom face has a series of ribs extending radially outward from a center portion of the face. The bed support is secured to the flow distributor about its outer periphery and this amount of available surface area of the flow distributor and/or face that is used to secure the bed support is less than about 10%. A distribution disk is arranged over the inlet and extends across from about 1 to about 30% of the flow distributor's surface area, ending just short of the inner edge of the ribs closest to the center point of the flow distributor face. This disk is mounted on two or more legs so as to be of substantially the same height as the ribs. The disk projects the fluid flow in a 360° radial distribution without any noticeable partitioning. The flow distributor allows one to run the column at higher velocities up to 1500 cm/hour while maintaining its integrity and a standard flow across the flow distributor and while having a low-pressure drop across the column.

Abstract: Base layer coding section 101 encodes an input signal to obtain base layer coded information. Base layer decoding section 102 decodes the base layer coded information to obtain a base layer decoded signal and long term prediction information (pitch lag). Adding section 103 inverts the polarity of the base layer decoded signal to add to the input signal, and obtains a residual signal. Enhancement layer coding section 104 encodes a long term prediction coefficient calculated using the long term prediction information and the residual signal to obtain enhancement layer coded information. Base layer decoding section 152 decodes the base layer coded information to obtain the base layer decoded signal and long term prediction information. Using the long term prediction information, enhancement layer decoding section 153 decodes the enhancement layer coded information to obtain an enhancement layer decoded signal. Adding section 154 adds the base layer decoded signal and enhancement layer decoded signal to obtain a speech/sound signal. It is thereby possible to implement scalable coding with small amounts of calculation and coded information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for establishing feedback channels in an MBMS (multimedia broadcast/multicast service) for UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System) by selectively establishing RRC connections with terminals that are capable of transmitting uplink feedback information regarding the particular MBMS service. When requesting an RRC connection, a terminal sends an RRC connection message including information related to MBMS and the UTRAN selectively establishes an RRC connection with the terminal based on the information related to MBMS. The terminal indicates whether both a point-to-multipoint radio bearer and a point-to-point radio bearer can be received and, optionally, provides terminal class information in the RRC connection request message. The UTRAN gives higher priority to those terminals that indicate the capability to receive both a point-to-multipoint radio bearer and a point-to-point radio bearer when selecting terminals with which to establish an RRC connection, thereby maximizing feedback information regarding a particular MBMS service.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for selectively introducing carbonyl groups into polymers by oxygenation of double C=C bonds of polymers with the aid of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) at a temperature comprised between 50 and 350°C and a pressure of N 2 O of from 0.01 to 100 atmospheres. 
     The introduction of an insignificant amount of C=O groups allows one to modify the physico-chemical properties of a polymer, with its molecular weight and molecular-weight distribution preserved. Deeper oxygenation results in controlled cleavage of polymer macromolecules and makes it possible to produce oxygen-containing oligomers having a desired molecular weight.
