The consistency developed on the wire section is adjusted based on a quality property of paper and/or by optimising a cost function, the quality property of paper comprising the formation and/or the porosity and/or a combination defined by means of the formation and/or the porosity and the cost function including the effect of at least the formation and/or the porosity.

Abstract: The invention relates to arranging the transmission of packets between a mobile communication device and a mobile communication network. At least one temporary block flow is set up, and data is transmitted in packets in packet data traffic channels in a first direction from the mobile communication device to the mobile communication network. At the end of the transmission, information about the end of the block flow is set in the last packet, wherein the receiver of the packets acknowledges packet reception. After the end of the transmission of packets in said first direction, a determined time is waited until an acknowledgement is transmitted. If, while waiting, the mobile communication network detects a need for transmission of packets in the second direction from the mobile communication network to the mobile communication device, at least one packet data traffic channel is set up for data transmission in said second direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for connection establishment and a radio system relaying packet traffic. A terminal informs the system that it wishes to transmit data. The network part receives the message and allocates default radio resources and informs the allocated resources to the terminal. The terminal sends a first control message to inform the terminal's radio path characteristics. According to the solution of the invention, when allocating the default amount of radio resources to the terminal, the network part is arranged to reserve one or more radio blocks for the terminal's control messages. When the terminal sends the network part information about its radio path characteristics, it is arranged to inform in the message if there are additional characteristics. In that case, the terminal sends a second control message including information about its radio path characteristics.

Abstract: A method for eliminating the disturbance caused by a mobile station (MS) situated within a certain area 1. In order to be able to prevent disturbance caused by a mobile station reliably, the mobile station (MS) is provided with control means for the muting of the mobile station as a response to a predetermined message (S1) transmitted to the mobile station, and transmitting means (BTS) are arranged in said certain area 1 for the transmitting of said predetermined message to a mobile station situated in the area 1 in order to mute the mobile station.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for arranging the transmission of packets between a mobile communication device (MS) and a mobile communication network (NW). In the method, at least one temporary block flow (UL TBF, DL TBF) is set up, in which data is transmitted in packets in one or more packet data traffic channels (PDTCH) in a first direction from the mobile communication device (MS) to the mobile communication network (NW). At the end of the transmission in the block flow, information is set in the last packet (307) to be transmitted about the end of the block flow, wherein the receiver of the packets acknowledges (312) the reception of the packets. In the method, after the end of the transmission of packets in said first direction, a determined time is waited until an acknowledgement (312) is transmitted.

Abstract: The invention relates to wireless telecommunication systems employing ATM technique (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) in transmission systems. A signalling arrangement between network elements comprises a protocol stack comprising on top a layer 3 user function for signalling between a wireless mobile station and a network, an ATM adaptation layer, an ATM layer and a physical later. In accordance with the invention the ATM adaptation later comprises on top a service-specific coordination function immediately between said higher user function and a service-specific connection-oriented protocol. Said service-specific coordination function comprises as functions the adaptation of the user function to the service-specific connection-oriented protocol and the establishment, discrimination and release of the signalling connections of the ATM adaptation later needed for conveying signalling messages of the layer user function. The invention provides a simple protocol stack that is easy to implement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for indicating a multi-slot channel in signalling received over a radio terminal in a TDMA radio system without increasing the amount of signalling compared to normal signalling used for assigning one slot to the channel and for defining the channel in other respects. In the inventive method, an element describing the channel of a normal signalling message is transformed into a code, which identifies the channel as a multi-slot channel and sets the number of successive slots to be included in the multi-slot channel. The element indicating the normal timeslot for the channel is used to indicate the first timeslot to be included in the multi-slot channel.
