Abstract: A method for P2P communication, for a first base station of a mobile communication system, where a base station interface is established between the first base station and a second base station of the mobile communication system is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining an IP address of a first user equipment and a TEID corresponding to a radio bearer established between the first user equipment and the first base station, and transmitting first routing information to the second base station via the base station interface, wherein the first routing information includes the IP address of the first user equipment, the TEID corresponding to the radio bearer between the first user equipment and the first base station, and an IP address of the first base station, wherein the base station interface does not pass through a core network of the mobile communication system.

Abstract: A method of conveying data unit traffic from a radio terminal in a mobile communication system that comprises an access network (E-UTRAN) and a core network (Evolved Packet Core) is described. It comprises:—receiving (S31) a service request message for data unit communication from said radio terminal, and—performing (S32) a conveying decision procedure, and on the basis of an outcome of said conveying decision procedure, associating a radio channel between an access network entity and a radio terminal with one of a channel to a dedicated data unit processing entity (P-GW) in said core network for conveying data units from said radio terminal to said dedicated data unit processing entity for processing (S33), and—an access network channel for conveying data units from said radio terminal within said access network (S34).

Abstract: A method for configuring a shellfish dredge is described. In an embodiment of the invention, a bag on a shellfish dredge has a front side and a back side and is attached to a tow. The front side of the bag has a pair of end peaks, one or more central peaks and an open area for catching shellfish. The end peaks are attached to the tow and the central peaks are attached to vertical chains connected to the tow. The bag is of a depth to catch and contain shellfish.

Abstract: The assembly comprises a frame-truss subassembly, to which are attached an internal subassembly for directing a flow of encountered water during dragging and a subassembly for collecting and discharging shellfish. An external subassembly is used for encasing the frame-truss subassembly together with the internal subassembly and the subassembly for collecting and discharging shellfish. The frame-truss subassembly includes a pair of lateral trusses, spaced at a distance commensurable with a width of the assembly. The internal subassembly includes an anterior panel with a forwards oriented concavity and a posterior panel with a backwards oriented concavity. The subassembly for collecting and discharging, disposed behind the internal subassembly includes a louver platform, a grid receptacle supported by the platform and a mechanism for topple over the grid receptacle. At least two sets of a multiplicity of hinged flaps are used.

Abstract: Apparatus for dredging shellfish from the bottom of a body of water includes a source of pressurized water, at least one water jet arranged to receive water from the pressurized water source and direct it at shellfish-containing sediments, sorting plates for receiving the shellfish-containing sediments excavated by the at least one water jet and separating the shellfish from the sediments, a collection chamber for receiving the separated shellfish, and dual lifting compartments, one of which is connected to the pressurized water source for lifting shellfish from the collection chamber and entraining the shellfish for transport to the surface, and the other of which is arranged to received pressurized air for increasing the transport speed and lifting power while cushioning the shellfish as they are transported to the surface.

Abstract: An apparatus for dredging shellfish includes a digging jet connected to a source of pressurized water for liquifying sediment and directing the sediment and any shellfish in the sediment toward a digging blade and separating device, the separating device being arranged to separate out sediments, shellfish, and debris having a dimension smaller than a minimum dimension, and a suction chamber arranged to collect shellfish that has passed the separating device for conveyance to the surface. Between the separating device and suction chamber is a second separating device in the form of a plate having a plurality of openings for further separating shellfish from debris and clumps of sediment having a dimension larger than a maximum dimension of the shellfish to be collected.

Abstract: A reinforced net apparatus, defined by a recovery net portion and a rear bag portion, the recovery net portion including a lower body panel portion of reinforced heavy duty netting, interconnected to left and right side panels of netting, and a top body panel portion of lightweight netting, together forming a forward debris-receiving opening. The recovery net portion would be interconnected at its rear wall to a bag portion, comprising netting, for receiving the debris collected in the recovery portion, the bag portion closed off at its rearmost end, and including elephant ears for recovering the bag portion when it is filled with debris. There is further included a lead chain member across the forward floor portion of the net and a trash chain to contact the debris and help move it into the net while the net is being pulled along the bottom of the body of water by a vessel.

Abstract: The invention relates to an excavator for suction material, particularly for removing soil from underground pipes. The excavator has a pneumatic elephant trunk for removing the suctioned material and which issues into a storage tank for the suctioned material and to which is connected an exhaust fan. In the storage tank the suctioned material is separated from the suction air flow and is subsequently passed through a filter positioned between an elephant trunk opening and the exhaust fan. In order to ensure a good separation on the part of the filter for a long period of time, the filter is formed by a coarse filter and a fine filter connected to the latter. The coarse filter is formed by a labyrinth or cascade-like flow channel, which is bounded by reciprocally displaced partitions and whose flow cross-section increases in the flow direction.
