Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur adsorptiven Trocknung von gereinigtem Biogas und Regenerierung beladener Adsorptionsmittel, wobei das getrocknete Biogas einer weiteren Verwendung zugeführt wird. Ausgehend von den Nachteilen des bekannten Standes der Technik soll ein Verfahren geschaffen werden, bei dem keine Fremdstoffe in das gereinigte Biogas gelangen können, der im zu reinigenden Gas enthaltene Anteil an Methan nahezu unverändert enthalten bleibt und der Aufwand zur Regeneration des beladenen Adsorptionsmittels verringert wird. Als Lösung wird vorgeschlagen, dass Trocknung und Regeneration als geschlossener Biogas-Kreislauf geführt werden, wobei als Adsorptionsmittel getrennte Schichten auf Basis Silicagel und Molekularsiebe eingesetzt werden, wobei das zu trocknende Biogas zuerst die Silicagelschicht durchströmt. Zur Regenerierung des Adsorptionsmittels wird ausschließlich erwärmtes getrocknetes Biomethan mit einer Temperatur von bis zu 150°C eingesetzt, das nach dem Kontakt mit Adsorptionsmittel wieder in den Ausgangsstrom an gereinigtem Biogas zurückgeführt wird. Nach erfolgter Regenerierung wird die Schüttung mittels Biomethan abgekühlt, das anschließend wieder in den Ausgangsstrom an gereinigtem Biogas zurückgeführt wird. Während der Trocknung und Regenerierung anfallendes methanhaltiges Wasser wird wieder der Biogaserzeugung und/oder -reinigung zugeführt.

Abstract: A method, transmitter node, and receiver node for communicating a transport block of information bits from the transmitter node to the receiver node. The transmitter node encodes the information bits and divides the coded bits into antenna selection bits and modulation bits. The antenna selection bits are used to select a transmit antenna from a plurality of transmit antennas. The modulation bits are used by a modulator to select modulation symbols for transmission utilizing the selected antenna. The receiver node receives the radio signal with a front-end receiver and computes a plurality of combined signals, each corresponding to one hypothesized transmit antenna at the transmitter node. The receiver forwards the plurality of combined signals to a soft value computer, which computes soft values for the antenna selection and modulation bits. The soft values are combined and decoded to produce decision bits for recovering the transport block.
