Abstract: The disclosure concerns apparatus comprising a first source of a first component, the first component one component for a finished free flowing food product and comprising a highly concentrated micro component. The apparatus includes a second source of a second component, the second component being another component for the finished free flowing food product. The apparatus includes a flow combiner configured to combine the first and second components to form a first mixture. The apparatus further includes a common delivery pipe configured to receive the first mixture from the flow combiner. The apparatus includes a dispenser configured to receive diluent flow from a third source, receive the first mixture from the common delivery pipe, combine the diluent flow with the first mixture to form a second mixture, and dispense the second mixture through a dispensing nozzle, the second mixture including the finished free flowing food product.

Abstract: A method of operating a wireless access point having a configurable antenna system includes determining a transmission signal quality metric for a first station with the configurable antenna system in a first configuration, determining a transmission signal quality metric for a second station with the configurable antenna system in the first configuration, determining a transmission signal quality metric for a first station with the configurable antenna system in a second configuration, determining a transmission signal quality metric for a second station with the configurable antenna system in the second configuration, determining a viable set of antenna configurations for which the signal quality metric of each of the stations meets a minimum criteria and configuring the configurable antenna system to a configuration in the viable set when the wireless access point is not transmitting.

Abstract: A method for radio communication in a wireless local area network including at least one transceiver equipped with an antenna with a controlled directivity pattern, according to which, in addition to the assignment in advance of the threshold value of communication quality H0 corresponding to the minimum pre-specified communication quality, the current value of communication quality Qcur is periodically determined based on the signal being received, the threshold value of the communication quality Hmax (corresponding to the pre-specified maximum communication quality) is also additionally assigned in advance.

Abstract: A wireless communications network includes a plurality of wireless devices equipped with direction- agile antenna systems to allow the wireless devices to establish and maintain wireless data links with each other.
