Abstract: A method of assigning scrambling codes to cells of a CDMA cellular mobile communications network includes assigning to each cell of a set of cells of a network area a cell attribute adapted to identify a cell typology, and, for each cell, assigning a respective primary scrambling code according to the cell typology, exploiting said cell attribute. The cell attribute includes a first attribute value adapted to identify a cell in which a complexity of computation to be performed by the user equipment for determining the cell primary scrambling code is to be minimized, and a second attribute value adapted to identify a cell in which a synchronization time of mobile communications user equipment is to be minimized. If the cell has an attribute value equal to said first attribute, the cell is assigned a primary scrambling code different from the primary scrambling codes assigned to neighboring cells. If the cell has an attribute value equal to said second attribute, the cell is assigned a primary scrambling code not belonging to a code group to which a primary scrambling code assigned to a neighboring cell belongs.

Abstract: A mould (70), which is designed to be applied for the purpose of a blanking process in which a transverse element which is designed to be part of a push belt for a continuously variable transmission is blanked out of basic material, has a receiving space (46) which serves for receiving the transverse element during the blanking process. Furthermore, the mould (70) comprises three separate mould components (71, 72a, 72b) for delimiting the receiving space (46). In comparison with the manufacturing process of an undivided mould, the manufacturing process of the mould (70) having the mould components (71, 72a, 72b) is simple, because in the latter case, the relatively complex shape of the receiving space (46) is obtained by simply positioning the mould components (71, 72a, 72b) with respect to each other in the proper way.

The resin composition is the reaction product of a first compound having a plurality of hydroxyl groups with a carbamate compound reactive with the hydroxyl groups of the first compound and added in an amount sufficient to form a carbamated intermediary. The carbamated intermediary has at least one primary carbamate group available for cross-linking and has unreacted hydroxyl groups. Then, a silyl compound having a terminal isocyanate group is reacted with the unreacted hydroxyl groups of the carbamated intermediary. The silyl compound also has silylalkoxy groups available for secondary cross-linking. The first cross-linking agent and the cross-linkable resin react with the primary carbamate groups and the silylalkoxy groups, respectively, to produce the film having improved scratch and mar characteristics.
