  • Publication number: 20210039929
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cargo handling vehicle for handling cargo within narrow aisles. The cargo handling vehicle comprises means for autonomous navigation, a chassis having at least two pairs of ground engaging means, a lifting boom. The lifting boom having a first end and a second end wherein the first end is arranged to the chassis and the second end is provided with a lifting unit. The first end of the lifting boom is attached to the chassis enabling movement of the second end in a vertical and horizontal direction, and the lifting unit is arranged rotatably in a horizontal plane. Each of the ground engaging means are independently steerable and individually driven by a respective driving means. Further, the invention also relates to a method in a cargo handling vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20050157688
    Abstract: A method of performing selective filtering, a network comprising a station, an AP and a PAC, whereby synchronisation between the AP and the PAC is performed in order to allow filtering of messages in at least the AP or in the PAC has been provided. An AP is moreover provided being able to perform both legacy and 802.11i association and authentication, whereby if a 802.11i station is encountered, filtering is performed until a 802.11i association and authentication is successful, and if a legacy station is encountered allowing the station to initiate login procedure with a PAC, if the station is not authenticated by the PAC, filtering messages to the station in question.
