Abstract: An oscillating circuit includes an analog oscillation element. The oscillating circuit includes at least one analog-to-digital conversion device. A method is for operating an oscillating circuit, in which a mechanical oscillator oscillates at a natural frequency. The oscillation amplitude is measured and digitized. A digital control signal is generated from this with the aid of a digital amplitude controller. A driving signal is generated, in turn, from the digital control signal, the driving signal driving the mechanical oscillator with the aid of a drive unit. This control loop stabilizes the oscillation amplitude.

Abstract: A device for a method for determining the transmission performance of sub-channels of a transmission channel in a radio-communication system is specified, where data-comprising signal carriers are generated for the setup of the transmission channel within the radio-communication system and accommodated in the sub-channels of the transmission channel, and the transmission performance of the sub-channels is determined on the basis of the signal sub-carriers superposed with interferers. In this context, each sub-channel occupies a separate bandwidth sub-range of a total bandwidth range of the transmission channel. The bandwidth sub-range is disposed within the bandwidth at a spacing distance from other bandwidth sub-ranges of the total bandwidth range, and the interferers are limited to the bandwidth sub-range allocated to the respective sub-channel.

Abstract: Automated generation of business correspondences includes accessing a template to retrieve a business form. The business form is encoded within a word processing application encoded, but also includes encoding for the dynamic generation of one or more fields consistent with formatting that is predefined in a template. Through the retrieval and filtering of business information, the business form includes dynamically generated business information data fields consistent with the filtered business information. The business information populates the appropriate fields in the business form, maintaining the proper formatting, including stylistic and table designations, because of the database formatting of the fields. As such, the business correspondences may be automatically generated with proper and consistent business information formatting. Meta data associated with the data fields in the template may be also used for other programming operations.

Abstract: The invention relates to a building supporting framework, in particular a high structure supporting framework comprising a certain number of vertical supports (2) and a certain number of horizontal beams (3, 4) mutually extending transversal directions (X, Y) and stacked on each other on different planes. The vertical supports are (2) and the beams (3, 4) are embodied in the form of metal sections comprising; at least partially; at least one cavity (5, 6; 7; 16). The cavities (5, 6) embodied in the vertical support ( ) and the cavities (7, 16) embodied in the beams (3, 4) are used for receiving fluid transporting conduits (9; 24; 26; 29). At intersections, where said vertical supports (2) and beams (3, 4) cross each other or converge, they are mutually connected in such a way that the fluid transporting conduits are directed in three spatial directions (X, Y, Z) through the supporting structure (1), thereby simplifying a building process.
