A method for limiting loads in a wind turbine by using measured loads or wind speed to increase the minimum pitch angle for extended periods. The minimum pitch angle will be allowed to relax down to the default when load excursions diminish. The method will allow turbines to capture more energy by operating in higher wind speeds and/or utilizing larger rotors without additional loss of fatigue life.

The operation control portion determines an input of the character information, when it is detected that the pressure detected has decreased by greater than or equal to a predetermined percentage within a predetermined time period, and subsequently, the operation control portion switches the input mode of the character information based on the change in the pressure detected and on the character information that is determined to be input.

When an authorization and/or control element like a policy control network element is involved in the authorization and/or control of a service flow in a communication connection controlled, a network control element, such as a GGSN, controlling the communication connection determines a termination of the thus authorized and/or controlled service flow and informs the policy control network element about the termination thereof. The policy control network element may then remove service attributes and/or QoS attributes related to this service flow. Furthermore, the communication connection in the communication network can be modified on the basis of stored information which represents a state before the establishment of the service flow.

A collision avoidance control system for a vehicle is provided which is designed to determine a target collision avoidance deceleration required for a system vehicle equipped with this system to bring a relative speed between the system vehicle and a target object into agreement with substantially zero without a physical collision with the target object and to determine a possibility of collision with the target object as a function of the target collision avoidance deceleration. When the possibility of collision is higher than a given threshold level, the system starts to decelerate the system vehicle. This enables the avoidance of collision with the target object at a decreased operation load on the system.
