Abstract: A mobile communication system has a mobile terminal, basestations, and a Radio Network Controller (RNC). In the case where drop of a frame occurs during data communication in Iub/Iur (between the basestations and the RNC), the RNC executes retransmission of an EDCH FP frame between the RNC and the basestations by transmitting a TN frame to the basestations to repair the drop of the frame without executing retransmission with the terminal device.

Abstract: A method of producing a tube which has a tube body portion constituting an outer hull of flow passages, and flow passage dividers for dividing the flow passages, comprising a roll forming process to form the tube, a cutting process to cut the tube to a predetermined length after the roll forming process, and a brazing process to braze the tube contact portions of the flow passage dividers to the inner surface of the tube body portion after the cutting process.
