Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining the material moisture of a material, comprising the following steps: referencing a material using a referencing device by determining the material moisture of a material sample of the material in accordance with the mass of the material sample; determining the dielectric material constant (DProbe) of the material sample in accordance with the material moisture; calibrating a first microwave sensor using the dielectric material constant of the material sample; measuring the dielectric material constant of the material online by means of the first microwave sensor; determining the material moisture of the material using the dielectric material constant previously measured online.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining a position of an object, which comprises at least one non-linear component, in particular one semiconductor component, which, when irradiated with high-frequency transmitted signals from at least two different positions, produces and emits object signals having twice and/or three times the frequency of the respective transmitted signals.

Abstract: A method for redirecting specific network traffic intended for a target device on a first data network is described. The method inserts a redirector into a first network in front of a target device and intercepting a transmission from the target device. The method then configures the network characteristics of the redirector to use the network addresses of the target device. Once configured the redirector inspects the network traffic on the first network to identify specific services, and sends the network traffic associated with the specific service to a destination device on a second network.

Abstract: An antenna is provided for a backscatter-based RFID transponder with an integrated receiving circuit, having a capacitive input impedance, for receiving a radio signal lying spectrally within an operating frequency range, whereby the antenna has two antenna arms, which extend outwardly in a spiral from a central area, in which the antenna arms can be connected to the integrated receiving circuit. According to the invention, each antenna arm has an arm length along the arm, which is selected so that one of the series resonance frequencies of the antenna is below the operating frequency range and the next higher parallel resonance frequency of the antenna is above the operating frequency range. The invention relates furthermore to a backscatter-based RFID transponder with an antenna of this type.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for context based search disambiguation. A client provides additional cues for search term disambiguation through the context of the specific user's browser. In one embodiment, a viewed content history is sent along with the search term(s) to be disambiguated. The viewed content history acts as a cue to a clustering search engine to display as more relevant the results that are classified in the same category as the pages sent along with the search term(s).
