Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé servant à synchroniser un système de chiffrement. Dans un mode de réalisation, ce procédé met en application des données de contrôle existantes qui sont transmises en tant que partie d'un processus d'établissement de communication dans un système de communication sans fil. Dans un mode de réalisation, on analyse les messages envoyés normalement entre une station de base et une unité à distance pendant l'établissement des appels de départ et d'arrivée, afin de détecter un message de contrôle déterminé indiquant le début de la transmission de données téléphoniques. La détection de ce message indique un point auquel peut débuter le chiffrement/déchiffrement et on utilise ce point afin de synchroniser le système de chiffrement. La synchronisation d'un système de chiffrement consiste à générer un espace d'état RC4 dans un système de chiffrement (KEK). Dans un mode de réalisation, on utilise des messages de voies d'accès moyennes inférieures (LMAC) selon un protocole de communication sans fil. Ce protocole est adéquat, étant donné que les messages LMAC sont soumis au même traitement de voies de contrôle associées (ACC) qui chiffre et déchiffre les données téléphoniques.

Title: Method for controlling flux of electromagnet and an electromagnet for carrying out said method (varients)
Inventor: BABICH NIKOLAI SERGEEVICH
IPC: H01F7/13
Filed: 2002-12-26
Abstract: The group of inventions relates to magnetic systems, in particular to a method for controlling the flux of electromagnet and to the structural design of an electromagnet which is used for carrying out said method. The inventive structures of the electromagnet can be mainly used for electromechanical actuating devices and comprise a magnetic coil provided with a composite magnetic core made at least partially of hard-magnetic material and provided at least with one air gap. The novelty of the invention lies in that the composite magnetic core is embodied in such a way that it has at least two stable magnetic states, said magnetic core has each said state (the air gap being minimised) as a result of the action of control current pulses supplied to the magnetic coil winding and having different (opposite) polarities, respectively. The specified values of the magnetic flux correspond to the stable states of the magnetic core of the electromagnet when it is devoid of electric current in the magnetic coil winding thereof. Said invention makes it possible to essentially increase the efficiency of the electromagnet by increasing the attractive and holding forces thereof, improving the mass and dimensional characteristics and the operational safety thereof, and also by energy saving and extending the functional capabilities of said structural design of the inventive electromagnet which uses the inventive method for controlling the magnetic flux.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for replacing intra-fiber liquid in fibers by a replacement liquid, comprising the following steps; compressing the fiber cake to such a degree that a substantial quantity of the intra-fib er liquid is expressed to the space between the fibers and partially out of the fiber cake, forcibly supplying the replacement liquid to the fiber cake duri ng the compression and thus replacing the intra-fiber liquid from the space between the fibers and letting the fibers expand while supplying additional replacement liquid which is thus further absorbed by the expanding fibers. I t also relates to an arrangement for replacing intra-fiber liquid in fibers wi th a replacement liquid comprising a device (1, 4, 5) for compressing the fiber cake in such a degree that a substantial quantity of intra-fiber liquid is expressed to the space between the fibers and partially out of the fiber cak e , a first device (6, 8, 9) for forcibly supplying the replacement liquid to the fibers during the compression and a second device (7) for supplying additional replacement liquid immediately after the device for compression arranged in an expansion area where the fibers are allowed to expand after t he compression while absorbing replacement liquid. The object of the present invention is to get rid of or significantly reduce the content of contaminating material in not only the areas between the fibers in a fiber cake but also in the fiber wall pores and the lumen and replace this liquid by a replacement liquid.
