Abstract: A mobile communication system controls switching a transmission diversity system for each channel, and improves the quality of the channel. When the channel type in an uplink is a channel for transmitting voice, open loop transmission diversity is used (steps S1  S3). When the channel type in an uplink is a channel for transmitting a packet, closed loop transmission diversity is used (steps S1  S2). Since the open loop transmission diversity or the closed loop transmission diversity whichever is more appropriate can be used, a transmission diversity system can be appropriately switched for each channel, thereby improving the quality of the channel.

Abstract: The present invention is applied to the case that in a communication system establishing communication between a radio intelligent terminal (1) and a server (6) via gateways (4, 5), it is necessary to exchange from the gateway to be used originally (eg. 4) to another gateway (eg. 5) for various reasons. Firstly, it is arranged in this invention that at receiving a gateway exchange instruction, an information notifying means notifies a radio intelligent terminal (1) of the generation of gateway exchange. In the case of only notifying the gateway exchange, the above information in addition to the exchange notice contains information necessary for communication between the radio intelligent terminal (1) and the server (6) via exchange-destination gateway (eg. 5), for example, the exchange-destination gateway address. A range of further means and methods for efficiently performing gateway exchange in the communication system are also disclosed.

Abstract: Composition for treating viral infections contains, as active component, at least one proteosome inhibitor (I). ACTIVITY : Virucide; cytostatic; hepatotropic; anti-HIV; nootropic; nephrotropic. MECHANISM OF ACTION : (I) inhibit, regulate or otherwise affect activity of the ubiquitin-proteosome pathway, especially the enzymatic activity of the complete 26S proteosome complex or the free (i.e. not assembled with regulatory subunits) 20S catalytically active proteosome structure. Particularly they (ir)reversibly block the proteolytic (trypsin, chymotrypsin or postlutamyl-peptide hydrolase) activities of the proteosome, so inhibit maturation, release and replication of viruses. Particularly they inhibit release of hepatitis virions or, for retroviruses, prevent processing of the gag protein by viral proteases. (I) may also modulate expression or activity of the p53 tumor suppressor and alter phosphorylation of herpes viral nucleocapsids.
