Abstract: The solution of the present invention is a precoding that allows an optimal use of multiple-antennas in a MIMO system. The precoding uses codebooks that are optimized for long-range wireless transmissions. A modified Kerdock codebook {wkmi} allows further improvement of the precoding gain. The modified Kerdock codebook {wkmi} contains new codewords wkmi that have been modified in order to further improve the transmit bit error rate (BER). The modified codebook {wkmi} allows a precoding gain that is between 2-3 dB. The present invention improves the transmit bit error rate (BER) of a wireless system. It allows a longer range in outdoor MIMO systems. Less signal outage is the result which allows that wireless signals can be transmitted over several kilometers.

Abstract: A wireless communication device 81 operates in either a ROD mode or a non-ROD mode. The non-ROD mode sets the state of the device to an active state that the device can perform wireless communication compliant with a first communication scheme with a communication destination device 82. The ROD mode: sets the state of the device to either the active state or a sleep state that the device can receive an activation instruction signal compliant with a second communication scheme requiring smaller electric power to receive a signal than the first communication scheme and cannot perform wireless communication compliant with the first communication scheme with the communication destination device; sets the state of the device to the sleep state when a predetermined sleep condition is satisfied; and sets the state of the device to the active state when the device receives the activation instruction signal.

The transmitter transmits four radio frames (FR1 to FR4) such that each of the radio frames straddles the corresponding one of the detection timings (DT1 to DT4) in the receiver.

Abstract: A packet interval (a time difference between sequentially received packets) in a certain previous time is calculated and a cumulative distribution function of the calculated packet interval is obtained. Meanwhile, a function value-corresponding to-flow end that is a boundary value of the cumulative distribution function to be considered as a flow end (timeout) in the range of a cumulative distribution function value is stored. From the cumulative distribution function obtained as described above, a value of a packet interval mapped to a cumulative distribution function value that matches the function value-corresponding to-flow end is set as a threshold. That is, the threshold is dynamically set based on a previous packet interval. Therefore, a packet stop period from a last packet reception time to a current time is measured, and it is detected as a flow timeout at a timing when the measured value is equal to or greater than the threshold.

Abstract: A transmission part transmits a packet by radio. A power detection part performs, at a given cycle, sampling of power of a spatial radio signal in a packet transmission period during which the transmission part transmits the packet. A collision detection part calculates, as an index value, at least one of the average value and the degree of variation of power of the spatial radio signal in the packet transmission period on the basis of sampled data obtained in the sampling by the power detection part. The collision detection part also determines a reference value on the basis of transmission power of the packet. Then, the collision detection part detects whether or not collision of the packet is present by comparing the index value with the reference value.

Abstract: A terminal device (1) frame-length-modulates an identifier of the radio apparatus (3) to generate a plurality of frames having a plurality of frame lengths, and transmits the generated plurality of frames to an access point (2) over wire or wireless communication. The access point (2) transfers the plurality of frames transmitted by the terminal device (1) to the radio apparatus (3) in the IP or MAC layer. The radio apparatus (3) detects the plurality of frame lengths of the plurality of frames received from the access point (2) and decodes the detected plurality of frame lengths to obtain an identifier. If the obtained identifier matches the identifier of the radio apparatus (3), the radio apparatus (3) transitions to active mode.

Abstract: A terminal device 2 transmits a wireless frame having a frame length or amplitude that represents the ID of a wireless base station 1 to be woken up to the wireless base station 1. The wireless base station 1 detects the wakeup ID from the frame length or amplitude of the wireless frame from the terminal device 2, and, if the detected wakeup ID is identical with its own ID, transitions from a sleep mode to an operating mode. In this case, the wireless frame is the same wireless frame as that transmitted and received by the wireless communication module of the terminal device 2 to and from the wireless base station 1.
