Abstract: The invention relates to a suspendable scale for weighing a bundle, comprising: a first part for suspending the scale from a structure; a second part for suspending an implement from the scale; a third part joining the first part and second part, the first part, second part, third part being at least partly radially nesting relative to one another; at least two strain gauges connected to the third part; a wireless transmitter for sending the measurement data to an operator; a self-powered power supply for feeding an electric current to the strain gauges and the wireless transmitter; a first space formed in the scale to integrate the wireless transmitter inside the scale; and a second space to integrate the power supply inside the scale. The invention also relates to an arrangement for hoisting a bundle.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for operating a mobile station (10). The method includes a first step of receiving a message from a base station (30), the message being descriptive of an assigned forward digital channel and including an information element that specifies an order of occurrence of time slot synchronizing word sequences within a frame. A next step receives a forward channel from the base station, the forward channel being transmitted to contain repeating frames each having N time slots, individual ones of the time slots including a synchronization word. A further step correlates the received forward channel in accordance with the received information element so as to obtain a plurality of frame synchronization indications within one frame, thereby decreasing the frame synchronization time.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for a user terminal (10) to obtain access to a DCCH transmitted on a TDM radio channel of a wireless communications system that also includes at least one TDM radio channel that transmits a DTC. The DCCH and DTC are each comprised of slots partitioned into fields. A first step (a) tunes a receiver (16) to a radio channel, receives a first slot, and decodes a predetermined first field from the first slot. The predetermined first field is a 12-bit CSFP field if the radio channel conveys a DCCH, or a 12-bit CDVCC if the radio channel conveys a DTC. A second step of the method calculates a CRC over the first field to determine if the first field is the CSFP field. If yes, the user terminal assumes that the radio channel conveys the DCCH and then uses information from the DCCH to access the wireless system.
