Abstract:
A method and system for providing alternative prepaid service when a serving Packet Data Service Node (PDSN) does not support prepaid or at least the type of prepaid (duration-based or volume-based) the user has subscribed to. The serving PDSN sends an access request to a Home Authorization, Authentication & Accounting Prepaid Server (HAAA/PPS) with an indication of its capability to support prepaid service and to terminate sessions based on requests from remote nodes. When the serving PDSN is neither capable of prepaid service, nor does it support session termination by a remote node, the HAAA/PPS determines that a prepaid session is allowed and supported in combination with a Home Agent (HA) for duration-based prepaid service. When the PDSN is not prepaid capable but supports session termination capability, the HAAA/PPS determines that any type of prepaid service can be allowed and supported by the HAAA/PPS in combination with the HA.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for conveying vessels of the bottle type, characterised in that it comprises: a primary wheel for conveying the bottles including a plurality of transfer arms; at least two secondary conveying wheels respectively capable of conveying the bottles fed by the primary wheel; the conveying path of the bottles grasped by the clamps of the transfer arms of each secondary wheel being at one point tangential to the conveying path of the bottles grasped by the transfer arms of the primary wheel, whereby the main flow of bottles conveyed by the primary wheel is divided into at least two secondary flows of bottles respectively conveyed by the secondary conveying wheels.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for conversion of a gasoline-range hydrocarbon feed into a gasoline fraction with a higher octane rating than that of the feedstream, and a gasoil fraction with a cetane number higher than 45, including the following steps: a) a membrane separation step (B) applied to the hydrocarbon feed under conditions enabling selective separation of the majority of the linear olefins present in said feed and constituting the β fraction, the fraction containing the majority of the branched olefins, termed the γ fraction, constituting a gasoline with a high octane rating, greater than that of the feed, b) an oligomerisation step (C) applied to the linear olefins (β fraction) contained in the effluent stream from the membrane separation step (B) under moderate oligomerisation conditions, c) a distillation separation step (D) applied to the effluent stream arising from the oligomerisation step in at least two fractions, d) a hydrogenation step (E) applied to one of the fractions obtained at step c).
Abstract:
A system for re-establishing the transmission quality of a digital information transmission link including amplifier equipments in the event of failure of one or more amplifier equipments includes, associated with at least one of the amplifier equipments, a gain control device for varying the gain of the amplifier equipment in order to compensate for deterioration of the receive signal-to-noise ratio following failure of at least one other amplifier equipment. An error corrector coder at the send end of the link operates on the digital information to be transmitted and an error corrector decoder at the receive end of the link operates on the received digital information. The error corrector code used by the error corrector coder and decoder reduces or eliminate residual errors at the receiving end associated with residual deterioration of the receive signal-to-noise ratio not compensated by varying the gain.
