The present invention has an object of providing a pneumatic tire having a tread pattern capable of providing both excellent drivability and a high partial wear resistance. There is a fiber-optic cable having a first end and a second end; a beam splitter having first and second output ports; and a light source connected to the beam splitter. The access terminal may additionally determine whether a time period between a paging indicator bit for the first subscription and the second paging channel is greater than or equal to an amount of time it takes to switch from operating on the first subscription to operating on the second subscription. The device identifies the NIC as congested responsive to determining that a number of packets stored in the transmission queue has reached a predetermined threshold and responsive to detecting identification of the NIC as congested, the application stores one or more packets to the overflow queue.
