  • Publication number: 20170201054
    Abstract: The invention relates to an adapter for mounting single- or multi-pin overvoltage protection devices that are designed as plug-in modules on a wiring carrier, wherein the adapter has a base and at least one chamber that is open upward and bounded by side walls, from the bottom side of which chamber a plurality of mounting protrusions extend, which each have a contour that is substantially complementary to corresponding openings in the wiring carrier. According to the invention, the mounting protrusions have a hook shape in order to engage under the wiring carrier as a result of sliding of the adapter in the plane of the wiring carrier, after the adapter has been inserted into the openings by means of the mounting protrusions, wherein through-holes are formed in the base, the dimensions of which through-holes allow plug-in connections of the plug-in modules to be fed through to the wiring carrier.

  • Patent number: 9078221
    Abstract: In a method for adapting uplink signaling during multicasting, the user devices of a multicast group receive a multicast message from a network control unit via a radio channel (PMcCH) in a downlink connection. The radio channel is adapted with respect to its power by transmitting information in an uplink connection via a corresponding radio channel (UL-DPCCH). The radio channel (UL-DPCCH) is power-controlled via at least one associated common radio channel (DL-PMcCH) that is associated with one or more of the user devices by transmitting corresponding information in the downlink direction from the network control unit to the user devices. The information is then processed by the receiving user devices to adapt the power of the respective associated radio channels (UL-DPCCH) in the uplink direction.

  • Patent number: 7848281
    Abstract: A transmission channel, for the transmission of messages from a mobile terminal to a base station, is selected after a terminal sends a send authorization request signal, for a particular transmission channel, to the base station and the base station sends a reply signal with a first decision value. The terminal is thus signaled whether the terminal is authorized to send a message on the requested transmission channel. On sending a first negative decision value, the base station sends a second positive decision value with the reply signal, when the terminal is authorized to send a message on another transmission channel. On detection of a first negative decision value, the terminal analyzes the reply signal further for whether a second positive decision value is contained therein and which other transmission channels are available and hence sends the message on one of the available transmission channels.

  • Patent number: 7729349
    Abstract: A method of transmitting data from a sender to a number of recipients in a system with a multilayer protocol architecture, in which the data are divided for organizational purposes into data packets having header data and payload data, a transmitting and/or receiving unit and a communication system. The transmission of data in the form of a point-to-multipoint transmission over a general channel, in particular in a mobile radio system, is carried out by adding to packet data which are being sent to multicast groups control data for the identification of a specific multicast group.

  • Patent number: 7499414
    Abstract: A method is provided for the administration of a muticast service whereby mobile terminals of users who have subscribed to the multicast service receive multicast messages via a mobile communication network. The present invention seeks to use the available radio resources in a more economical manner. To this end, the mobile terminals are respectively prodied with an input unit which, when actuated, produces activation information which indicates whether the multicast service is activated or deactivated, and the activation information is transmitted to the mobile communication network.

  • Patent number: 7289536
    Abstract: The invention proposes a method for signaling various header data (5, 10, 20, 25) in the transmission of packet data units (1) in a telecommunications network depending on a type of the respective header data (5, 10, 20, 25), which requires the lowest possible bandwidth and bit rate. A set of header data (5, 10, 20, 25) received in a receiver (70) of the telecommunications network, depending on its signaling (30, 35, 40), is supplied to one of at least two groups (50, 55) of algorithms for an evaluation. For a first type of header data (5, 10, 20, 25), a first algorithm is provided in a first group (50) of algorithms, and for a second type of header data (5, 10, 20, 25) a second algorithm is provided in a second group (55) of algorithms, wherein the first algorithm corresponds to the second algorithm. The signaling (30, 35, 40) for the first type of header data (5, 10, 20, 25) and the signaling (30, 35, 40) for the second type of header data (5, 10, 20, 25) are combined into a shared signaling.

  • Patent number: 7269150
    Abstract: A method for transmitting signaling is proposed which is simple and efficient without taking up significant transmission capacity. In the method, a transmission of the signaling takes place between a mobile station (12) and a base station (11) in a mobile radio network. The signaling is transmitted in at least one predetermined time slot (301), and a different signaling is assigned to each mobile station (12) disposed in a radio cell of the base station (11), so that signaling operations of various mobile stations, transmitted via the at least predetermined time slot, can be distinguished from one another in the base station (11).
