A group of inventions relates to an omnichannel system for providing financial and/or bank services, the system comprises a universal physical device for an interactive interaction between a client and at least two financial and/or bank services providers, and a method for providing financial and/or bank services using said system, and which enable to provide an end user with a wide range of the financial and/or bank services within a single interface window on a single peripheral device by using algorithms for processing, filtering, and identifying a client request to the single omnichannel system from all financial and/or bank services providers coupled thereto with the corresponding services and provide an alternative during selection of a certain provider when receiving the above-mentioned service without a need in conduction of a re-identification of the user, thereby facilitating and accelerating the process of providing bank and/or financial services in general.

One embodiment is directed to an uplink signal combiner that is configured to receive, via the data network, data packets from the remote antenna units. Each of the data packets includes respective control data and respective user data. The respective control data include data for managing a communication link between a baseband unit and a respective remote antenna unit. The respective user data represents a respective uplink signal received by each of the remote antenna units from one or more mobile stations. The uplink signal combiner is configured to generate additional user data representing a first combined uplink signal by combining the user data extracted from the data packets. The uplink signal combiner is configured to transmit an additional data packet to the baseband unit. The additional data packet includes the additional user data and additional control data derived from the control data from the received data packets.

Provided is a procedure for receiving response information in response to a request message in an M2M system. Such a procedure may include transmitting a request message; determining a response type parameter corresponding to the request message; and receiving response information according to the response type parameter, wherein one of blocking, synchronous non-blocking (nonBlockingRequestSynch) and asynchronous non-blocking (nonBlockingRequestAsynch) is set as the response type parameter.
