The embodiments relate to a sensor strip (13) and to a flexible support strip (12) for receiving the sensor strip and for fixing the strip to a surface e.g. to the back of a test person. According to the embodiments, the sensor strip (13) has a reference point (18), (for example a snap fastener connection), with which it can be fixed to a reference surface (16) of the support strip. This allows the position of the sensor strip (13) to be unambiguously defined on the support strip (12). The further extension of the sensor strip (13) lies in a pocket (23) so that it can slide, allowing the relative movement between the support strip and the sensor strip if the support strip is lengthened (represented by a dot-dash line). The entire sensor unit is thus advantageously more comfortable to wear, as the elastic support strip (12), for example, can freely follow the back movements of the test person.

The capacitor circuit includes a pair of capacitors coupled in series. Each of the capacitors is connected in common to ground and has a capacitive value associated. A feedback network is connected to selectively bias the tank circuit to produce a signal having an amplitude. The amplitude of the signal is a function of a ratio of the capacitive values associated with the capacitor circuit. The frequency of the signal is defined by the inductor and the capacitor circuit. The tank circuit is multifunctional in that it may be biased to function as a transmitter and a receiver.

A method for resuming an RRC connection performed by a UE in a wireless communication system may include entering an EMM-IDLE mode with a suspend indication as the RRC connection is suspended; generating an initial NAS message when a procedure using the initial NAS message is triggered; requesting a resume of the RRC connection from an upper layer of the UE to a lower layer; and switching from the EMM-IDLE mode with the suspend indication to an EMM-CONNECTED mode when the upper layer receives an indication that the RRC connection is resumed from the lower layer.

Based on an area detection signal, a layer separation section outputs a text component of a document, to a feature point calculating section, and generates four layers from a pictorial component of the document to output the generated layers to the feature point calculating section. The feature point calculating section sums feature points extracted for each component. A features calculating section calculates a hash value based on the feature points. A vote processing section searches a hash table based on the hash value, and votes for a reference image associated with the hash value. Based on the voting result, a similarity determination processing section determines whether the document image is similar to any reference image, and then outputs the determination result. Thus, even if the document contains a photograph, accurate matching can be performed.

The invention concerns a method of transmitting non-dated digital data between a transmitter and a receiver in which the data can take at least two different paths between the transmitter and the receiver and handover from one path to another occurs during transmission. In the transmitter, packets intended for the second path are transmitted only after the last packet intended for the first path has been transmitted and in the transmitter and in the receiver packets on the first or second path are delayed in order for packets on the second path to arrive after packets on the first path. It is therefore not necessary to transmit signaling to differentiate the two paths at the receiver, which can include a single demodulator.
