Abstract: In a regenerative power discharge operating mode, when a controller causes a capacitor to discharge power by supplying power from the capacitor to an electrical load via a DC-DC converter, it makes the output voltage from the capacitor greater by a predetermined discharge voltage increase amount than the voltage generated by a power generator. As a result, the controller indirectly suppresses or stops the power generator from generating power without having to alter the command voltage for the voltage generated by the power generator.

Abstract: Upon detecting an opportunity to release E-RABs related to mobile stations, a mobility management entity transmits a single E-RAB release information message that collectively specifies E-RABs to be released to a base station communicating with the mobile stations. Subsequently, upon receiving the E-RAB release information message, the base station transmits a single E-RAB release information acknowledge message to the mobility management entity. Upon receiving the E-RAB release information acknowledge message, the mobility management entity updates information related to the E-RABs so that the information indicates release of the E-RABs.

Abstract: A gas sensor is proposed, which can detect a gas by a novel configuration while reduction in size is achieved. The gas sensor (1) does not need a light absorption path as in a prior art so that the size can be reduced correspondingly. Further, in the gas sensor (1), a gas is absorbed in an ionic liquid (IL), and a dielectric constant of the ionic liquid (IL) that changes by absorbing the gas can be measured according to a change in light intensity that occurs by a surface plasmon resonance phenomenon in a metal layer (7). Thus, the gas sensor (1) including the novel configuration that can detect a gas based on the change in the light intensity can be realized.
