Abstract: A device for decoding code symbols which are interfered with a distortion during a predetermined distortion time interval includes a reliability information generator to provide reliability information based on the code symbols and a decoder to decode the code symbols into code words. The decoder is configured to decode the code symbols based on weighted reliability information, wherein the weighted reliability information is generated from the reliability information by applying a first weight during times not coinciding with the distortion time interval, and by applying a second weight different from the first weight during times coinciding with the distortion time interval.
Abstract: Adhesion promoters for polymer coatings on metals are articulated into at least two head groups connected by a hydrocarbon spacer group. One head group reacts particularly well with polymer molecules. Other head groups form a durable bond with a metal surface. The length of the spacer group is such that a substance deposited in a substance layer on a metallic surface of a body or particle has hydrophobic properties. Suitable adhesion promoters can be sulfur compounds, amino compounds, hydroxyl or carbonyl compounds. A plastic composite body, a compound and a process of preparing a compound are also provided.
