Abstract: A paging method and apparatus for a mobile communication network to which at least two non-coordinated core networks are connected is disclosed, wherein a service state of a mobile station is checked, when a request for a paging message to the mobile station has been received from one of the non-coordinated core networks. Then, a multicall paging message is transmitted using an existing signalling link of the mobile station and/or mobile station location information known in a radio access network, when the mobile station is already connected to another one of the non-coordinated core networks. The checking is preferable performed by a radio network controller which is connected to the non-coordinated core networks. Thus, a paging request received form a non-coordinated core network can be supplied to a mobile station, although the paged mobile station is already connected to another non-coordinated core network.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur une méthode et sur un dispositif d'usinage laser permettant de percer un trou, et par lequel on peut obtenir de manière sûre une continuité électrique entre des couches conductrices proches les unes des autres, en détectant l'état d'un objet usiné correctement et en commandant l'usinage en fonction. A cet effet, on détermine de manière sûre le nombre d'impulsions laser émises grâce auxquelles l'objet peut être usiné. Puis on détecte l'intensité d'un faisceau laser réfléchi et l'intensité du faisceau laser tombant en incidence qui proviennent de l'objet usiné. En conséquence, si on juge que l'objet a atteint l'état usiné requis, on met fin à l'usinage laser même si le nombre d'applications laser n'atteint pas le nombre prédéterminé d'impulsions laser émises. D'un autre côté, même si on juge que l'objet usiné n'a pas atteint l'état usiné requis, le nombre d'applications d'impulsions laser est limité au nombre prédéterminé d'impulsions laser émises. De cette façon, on peut réaliser un procédé et un dispositif d'usinage laser au moyen desquels on peut former un trou usiné de haute qualité, à rendement élevé, et on peut, de plus, réduire le temps d'usinage.
