For a system in which data packets are to be handled according to one of several rules, depending on two (or more) criteria present in each packet, such as source and destination addresses, a classification method is disclosed that allows to determine the applicable rule by a longest-matching-prefix search operation. Range tokens of non-uniform length are assigned to basic ranges of criterion values so that each combination of input values from a packet can be represented by a particular variable length combination of range tokens. A search tree containing stored rule identifiers is so designed that each particular range token combination, used as input for a longest-matching-prefix lookup operation, will provide the required identifier. Different range token combinations having the same prefix can use the same path to one stored rule identifier, so that this method reduces the storage and time requirements for the classification procedure and allows simple updating when rules change.

The present invention provides a data transmitting method with hybrid automatic repeat request in multi-carrier system. In this method, the signal-to-noise ratios of respective sub-carriers are compared with a threshold, the data on the sub-carriers having the signal-to-noise ratios lower than the threshold are selectively retransmitted by mapping these data onto the sub-carriers having the good channel conditions, and then the retransmitted data are combined hybrid-automatically in the receiver of the opposite terminal. By using the method the system throughput can be enhanced effectively without impairing the bit error rate of the system.

Wind power installations were initially always erected in the form of individual units and it is only in recent years that, caused also by administrative and building regulations, wind power installations are frequently installed in wind parks. In that respect a wind park in its smallest unit is an arrangement of at least two wind power installations, but frequently markedly more. By way of example mention may be made of the wind park at Holtriem (East Frisia) where more than 50 wind power installations are set up in an array.

In most cases the wind potential is at its greatest in regions of the power supply networks with a low level of short-circuit power and low population density. It is precisely there that the technical connection limits are quickly reached by the wind power installations, with the result that it is then no longer possible for further wind power installations to be set up at such sites._A method of operating a wind park comprising a plurality of wind power installations, wherein the wind park is connected to an electrical power supply network into which the electrical power produced by the wind park is fed and the wind park and / or at least one of the wind power installations of the wind park has a control input, by means of which the electrical power of the wind park or one or more individual wind power installation or installations can be set in a range of between 0 and 100% of the respective power to be made available, in particular the nominal power, and that there is provided a data processing apparatus which is connected to the control input and by means of which the setting value is set in the range of between 0 and 100%, depending on how great is the power that the overall wind park provides at its output for feeding into the energy network and wherein the operator (PSU) of the electrical supply network to which the wind park is connected can adjust the power delivered by the wind park by way of the control input.
