Abstract: To provide improvements in crest factor reduction in a distributed communication system, CFR configuration parameters can be determined based on communication signals received from a base station entity and distributed to node(s) of the distributed communication system. CFR engine(s) in the node(s) may perform CFR based on the CFR configuration parameters, and/or may adjust their CFR engine(s) based on signal parameters and/or operating parameters of a power amplifier coupled to a respective CFR engine. Some or all CFR processing may be offloaded from a node and assigned to optical transport card(s) of the system controller based on a processing bandwidth associated with the optical transport card(s).

Abstract: Slide, in particular a water slide, with a take-off zone and a landing zone, between which at least one slide path with a slide surface extends, which includes a run-up section leading away from the take-off zone and a run-out section leading into the landing zone, with a plurality of slide sections of the slide path provided between the run-up and run-out sections, with at least one branching section arranged in the slide path, by which branching section an incoming slide section is divided into a plurality of outgoing slide sections or a plurality of incoming slide sections are combined into one outgoing slide section, wherein the branching section has a first slide connector and, adjacently thereto, a second slide connector, both of which are opposite or remote from a third slide connector. A mouth region is formed between the first and second slide connector and the third slide connector.

Abstract: A heat exchanger device provides refrigeration in refrigerated vehicles operated by liquefied natural gas (LNG) which must first be regasified. The great temperature difference between heat-discharging cooling chamber air and heat-absorbing LNG evaporating at up to ?161° C. conducts the heat flow via an introduced intermediate medium circulating in a closed circuit to avert the risk of combustible natural gas leaking. The intermediate medium is non-combustible, environmentally-benign liquid heat exchange media having low viscosity. The liquid heat exchange media operating temperature is kept above ?85° C. using an additional thermal resistance in the heat exchanger which evaporates the LNG, so that the heat flow flows with sufficient temperature drop. A thin protective dry gas layer formed using sheathing tubes enclosing a tubular heat exchanger's tubes coaxially serves as this thermal resistance. Possibly escaping natural gas is determined by monitoring pressure in the layer, and the LNG supply interrupted.

Abstract: A piston pump for a vehicle brake system includes a piston which is mounted in a cylinder so as to be movable along an axis. An inlet valve for introduction of fluid into the cylinder, and a sealing element configured to seal off the piston with respect to the cylinder are located on the piston. A first portion of the piston includes a valve seat of the inlet valve, and a second portion of the piston includes a piston rod. The sealing element includes a projection which engages axially over the first piston portion and extends to the second piston portion.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods, which provide access to [F-18]fluoropegylated (aryl/heteroaryl vinyl)-phenyl methyl amine derivatives.

Abstract: Launcher for a slide and method for starting a sliding process in a slide way, in particular a water slide, having a starting ramp, which includes a slide section having a slide surface, which has a loading zone for at least one user, which extends from an entry-side end of the slide section to a blocking device arranged in the slide section, the blocking device blocking the slide surface when in a starting position, and having a pivoting device, by which the starting ramp can be moved from a loading position to a starting position, and having a control device, which actuates the pivoting movement of the starting ramp between the loading position and the starting position and the blocking device between the starting position and a release position.

Abstract: A microacoustic component includes an active layer and an electrode. The electrode includes a first metal layer facing the active layer, a second metal layer facing away from the active layer, and a third layer arranged between the first metal layer and the second metal layer. The third layer serves as a diffusion barrier.
