Abstract: The technology disclosed herein concerns, e.g., apparatus, methods, and procedures for generating, transmitting, and processing a combined message that both indicates RAN-based notification area update (RNAU) and a system information request. A user equipment (36-16) which communicates over a radio interface with an access node (22-16) of a radio access network (RAN) comprises receiver circuitry (46), processor circuitry (40), and transmitter circuitry (44). The receiver circuitry (46) is configured to receive first type system information (SI) from the access node (22-16). The first type system information comprises: scheduling information specifying downlink radio resources for second type SI message(s), each of the second type SI message(s) comprising at least one system information block (SIB), and an indication of a delivery mode for each of the second type SI message(s), the delivery mode being either periodic broadcast or on-demand basis.

Abstract: There is provided a method for identifying thrust counterforce working point positions of backup rolls of a rolling mill, the method including: changing at least either friction coefficients and inter-roll cross angles between the rolls with an unchanged kiss roll load to cause thrust forces at a plurality of levels to act between the rolls, and measuring thrust counterforces in a roll-axis direction acting on rolls forming at least one of roll pairs other than a roll pair of the backup rolls and measuring backup roll counterforces acting in a vertical direction on the backup rolls at reduction support positions in a kiss roll state; and identifying, based on the measured thrust counterforces, thrust counterforce working point positions of thrust counterforces acting on the backup rolls, using first equilibrium conditional expressions relating to forces acting on the rolls and second equilibrium conditional expressions relating to moments acting on the rolls.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for identifying an inter-roll cross angle in a rolling mill of four-high or more including at least a pair of work rolls and a pair of backup rolls by, when rolling is not performed, applying a roll bending force to apply a load between rolls of an upper roll assembly including the work roll on the upper side and between rolls of a lower roll assembly including the work roll on the lower side, in a state where a roll gap between the work rolls is put into an open state, detecting vertical roll loads that act in the vertical direction on the rolling support positions on the working side and the driving side of at least one of the backup roll on the upper side or the backup roll on the lower side, and calculating a load difference between the vertical roll loads on the working side and the driving side.

Abstract: Method and apparatus use a value tag in conjunction with transmission and/or processing of system information in a wireless communication network. The method includes a User Equipment (UE) receiving a first type system information block (SIB) from a base station (BS) apparatus. The first type SIB includes an identifier of a second type SIB and a first value tag indicating a version of the second type SIB. The method further includes the UE determining whether to request the second type SIB by comparing the first value tag with a prestored second value tag. The prestored second value tag is associated with a prestored second type SIB. The method further includes the UE transmitting to the BS apparatus a request message for the second type SIB when the prestored second value tag does not match the first value tag and receiving the second SIB from the BS apparatus.
