Abstract: A CDMA cellular communication system includes two base stations (403,405), which comprises resource allocation means (415,417) and communication means (411,413) for communicating over a radio interface to a user terminal (401). The user terminal (401) is in soft handover with the two base stations (403,405) and communicates using packet transmission. One of the base stations (403,405) is determined as associated base station by means for determining an associated cell (421,423). Initial resource scheduling is performed in the two base stations (403,405) only considering the soft handover user terminal (401) in the associated cell. The resource allocation is then communicated to the non-associated base station, which updates its resource allocation taking into account the soft handover user terminal (401). The invention is applicable to the UMTS communication system.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions suitable for use in connection with protein-carrying granules, e. g., enzyme granules, and the like. In one embodiment, the composition comprises a mixture including a finely-divided drying agent (e.g., a pigment, such as TiO 2 ), a binding agent (e.g., a sugar or sugar-derivative, such as sucrose), and a polymeric structuring agent (e.g., a polypeptide or polysaccharide, such as starch); together defining a matrix. The matrix can be applied as a coating or layer about a protein-containing region, e.g., a core, of a granule. Preferably, the matrix is effective as a barrier, or physical divider, that slows or prevents the diffusion of substances that can adversely effect the protein or enzyme in the protein-containing region of the granule. Another embodiment of the invention provides a polymeric coating or layer for use in protein-containing granules. Preferably, the coating is substantially free of pigments and the like. The matrix and coating of the present invention can be used separately or, more preferably, in combination in a protein or enzyme granule formulation, with the resultant granules exhibiting good storage stability in detergent formulations.

Abstract: The present invention provides a call handling device for connecting a wireless communications device to a communications network and allows call control features to be implemented. This is achieved by transferring control information indicative the call control features available to the user via a wireless connection. The call control features selected by a user are then implemented by the call handling device, making the call control features available to the user. The present invention also allows control information to be sent to alternative communications devices. This is useful for example when a user assistant is using a portable handset or the like to make a telephone call. In this case with the key pad located on the handset it is typically difficult to push buttons as well as speak on the phone simultaneously. The present invention overcomes this by having the control information sent directly to a different device such as a PDA so that it can be presented to the user and then responded to without disturbing the phonecall.
