Abstract: In an internal combustion engine, an NO X  selective reducing catalyst (15) is arranged in an engine exhaust passage. Urea is fed in the NO X  selective reducing catalyst (15), ammonia generated from this urea is adsorbed at the NO X  selective reducing catalyst (15), and the NO X  contained in the exhaust gas is selectively reduced mainly by the adsorbed ammonia. An NO X  sensor (29) able to detect NO X  and ammonia contained in the exhaust gas is arranged in the engine exhaust passage downstream of the NO X  selective reducing catalyst (15). It is judged that the amount of adsorption of ammonia at the NO X  selective reducing catalyst (15) is saturated based on the detection value of the NO X  sensor (29) when the feed of fuel to the engine is stopped during the deceleration operation.

Abstract: An OFDM-MIMO radio-frequency transmission system takes the form of a DVB-T system which is modified in that the phases of selected ones of the pilot signal transmissions, particularly the scattered pilots, are chosen or changed at the transmitters such that some of the corresponding pilot signal transmissions from the two (or more) MIMO transmitter stages are in the same phase and others of the transmissions are with relatively-inverted phase. At a receiver the received pilot signals 10 are extracted and combined so as to obtain an indication of the transmission channel characteristics. There are three improvements: (i) any continual pilots on the same carrier as inverted scattered pilots are also inverted in phase, (ii) those scattered pilots on alternate pilot-bearing carriers are phase inverted, even if this means that a given symbol has some inverted and some non-inverted, and (iii) at the receiver the non-inverted and inverted pilots are separated, interpolated in frequency and time, and then both added and subtracted.

Abstract: A method for message routing in a Peer to Peer (P2P) network includes the following steps: when a request message is routed from a source peer to a destination peer, the source peer and every intermediate peer that needs to be recorded add path information of the local peer to the request message and forward the request message to a next hop until the message arrives at the destination peer, where the path information includes a communication address of the local peer; the destination peer adds the path information in the request message to a response message obtained according to the request message; and the response message is routed from the destination peer to the source peer according to the path information. A source peer, an intermediate forwarding peer, and a destination peer as well as a message routing system are also disclosed. With the present invention, recursive message routing is implemented in a structured P2P network. Because a peer in the P2P network no longer needs to maintain a local transaction table, resources of the peer are saved and the cost of the P2P network is less.
