Abstract: Methods of re-establishing a connection between a radio network node and a core network having a control plane entity and a user plane entity in a communication network and of detecting faulty communication paths or re-started entities in such networks are provided. A control-plane entity sends an event in accordance with a media gateway control protocol to the user-plane entity that orders the user-plane entity to notify the control-plane entity when user-plane traffic is received from another network node or when a faulty path or re-started peer is discovered. In response to an order by the control-plane entity, a connection between the radio network node and the user-plane entity can be re-established. Heartbeat messages and heartbeat acknowledgment messages are sent through a communication path, and if a heartbeat acknowledgment message has not been received, the control-plane entity is notified of the faulty path.

Abstract: A device for adjusting the slack of safety seat belts in vehicles. The device has a channel member that has substantially the shape of a flattened C and removably receives a rectangular block member therein leaving just sufficient space between these two members to pass the belt through. A centrally disposed elongated cavity on the surface of the block member that faces the channel member is provided with an internal slanted surface that, in cooperation with a locking member, exerts sufficient frictional pressure to maintain the device in a predetermined location in said belt.
