Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the transmission of feedback of mobile terminals receiving via an air interface of a mobile communication system a multicast or broadcast service transmitted or forwarded by a feedback control entity and to a mobile terminal, the feedback control entity using this method. Further, a communication system comprising a feedback control entity and a mobile terminal receiving a multicast or broadcast service is provided. To enable configurable and adaptive feedback for multicast or broadcast services provided via an air interface maintaining the end-to-end session concept the invention suggests that a feedback control entity deterministically selects a subset of the mobile terminals of the mobile communication system and which receive the multicast or broadcast service for providing feedback to the feedback control entity. In one embodiment of the invention the terminals are instructed to start or stop feedback provision by the feedback control entity by means of signaling.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for separating and removing contaminants from an optionally
continuously flowing aqueous effluent containing contaminants, effluent containing
entrained contaminants is introduced into an enclosed chamber in which the
contaminants are formed into a particle floc separable from the aqueous phase and is
then advanced to a separation tank where floating floc is removed from the aqueous
stream. The process may be augmented by the application of aeration, oxidation, and/or
coagulation steps prior to the effluent entering the separation tank. Significant
improvements are effected in respect of simplicity, power efficiency and commercial
viability.

Abstract: A surface acoustic wave device (12) includes a micro-machined pressure
transducer (14) for monitoring tire pressure. The device is configured having a
micro-machined cavity (16) that is sealed with a flexible conductive membrane
(18). When an external tire pressure equivalent to the cavity pressure is
detected, the membrane (18) makes contact with ridges on the backside of the
surface acoustic wave device (12). The ridges are electrically connected to
conductive fingers of the device. When the detected pressure is correct,
selected fingers on the device will be grounded producing patterned acoustic
reflections to an impulse RF signal. When the external tire pressure is less than
the cavity reference pressure, a reduced reflected signal to the receiver results.
The sensor (10) may further be constructed so as to identify itself by a unique
reflected identification pulse series.
