20100034191	METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TIME SYNCHRONIZATION IN A SENSOR NETWORK - In a network node synchronization method and system a first timestamp (TSA) is captured at a first network node system (A) just prior to transmitting a data packet (DP) to a second network node system (B) and incorporated in said data packet (DP). Upon receiving a control block of data (SFD) comprised in the data packet (DP), the second network node system (B) captures a second timestamp (TSB). The delay between capturing the first timestamp (TSA) and the second timestamp (TSB) comprises a number of deterministic delays and a propagation time (PT). Eliminating the deterministic delays, only a small synchronization error due to the propagation time (PT) remains. As the propagation time (PT) may be very small, the synchronization may be very accurate. Further, as the synchronization may be performed using any data packet (DP), the present invention may be employed in any kind of network system and network protocol. Further, a method according to the present invention uses very little overhead, thereby being very suitable for low energy applications, e.g. in a wireless sensor network.	02-11-2010

20100267392	REDUCTION OF CALL SET-UP TIME IN MOBILE TERMINATING CALLS WITH "HOME AREA" RATES IN A LAND MOBILE NETWORK - The invention relates to a method for setting up a mobile radio connection to a mobile station (MS) in a cellular mobile radio network. According to said method, each cell of the mobile radio network can be identified by an identification character and a plurality of cells form a localisation area of the mobile radio network. In order to localise the mobile station (MS) inside a localisation area, paging is regularly carried out from a switching centre (MSC) in pre-definable time intervals, and a first mobile radio connection to the mobile station (MS) is set up by the paging, whereupon a paging response message is generated from the mobile station (MS) and transmitted over the existing first radio connection. When the paging response message is received, said first mobile radio connection to the mobile station (MS) from the mobile switching centre (MSC) is maintained for a pre-determinable time span, said first mobile radio connection between the mobile switching centre (MSC) and the mobile station (MS) being used to set up a mobile terminating call (MTC) when a call setup from or to the mobile station (MS) is triggered within the time span from the reception of the paging response message.	10-21-2010

According to the invention, the supplementary services of the public telecommunication network associated with the first user device or with an identification chip connected to the first user device are activated in such a manner that changes of the supplementary services are effective in the other user devices or the identification chip connected to the respective additional user device of the multi-device configuration at the same time or with a temporal delay. In this manner, when one or more parallel calls are switched to one or more user devices of the multi-device configuration, before delivery of the call, the kind of the call request resulting in a reservation of resources required for completing the call, the system states of the user devices to be called or of or of the identification chips connected to the user devices and the exchange devices involved therein are determined using an intelligent call control and the call can be delivered in a resource-saving manner.	12-01-2011

20110020467	Inhibition of Biogenic Sulfide Production Via Biocide and Metabolic Inhibitor Combination - Biogenic sulfide production is synergistically inhibited by treating sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) with a biocide and a metabolic inhibitor. The biocide directly kills a first portion of the SRB. The metabolic inhibitor inhibits sulfate-reducing growth of a second portion of the SRB without directly killing the second portion of the SRB. The treatment of SRB with both a biocide and a metabolic inhibitor provides effective biogenic sulfide inhibition at significantly lower concentrations than would be required if the biocide or metabolic inhibitor was used alone.	01-27-2011
