  • Publication number: 20070164896
    Abstract: In order to consider an optimum control method and an optimum mounting method needed, a UWB having a communication function and a radar function are used. For an obstacle vehicle in front, the distance between two cars is measured using the radar function, and according to this distance, a hazard warning is issued to a driver or a pre-crash operation is carried out. Moreover, by informing its own position to each other between vehicles using the communication function, the distance to a vehicle near to the own vehicle is measured regardless of clutter, and according to this distance, a hazard warning is issued to a driver or a pre-crash operation is carried out. Moreover, the operating frequency and transmission power of a radar are changed based on its own location information, thereby reducing influence to and from other wireless system.

  • Patent number: 7233581
    Abstract: A time slot for a connection request sent from a mobile station includes the mobile station ID and the application discrimination word of the object application for which the mobile station requests the connection. By referring to the database, a base station assigns a MDC preferentially to a mobile station issuing a connection request for calling a high priority application. The base station monitors the MDCs used for ongoing communications. If a MDC assigned to a mobile station does not satisfy a predetermined radio communication quality, other MDCs for lower priority application are freed and reassigned to the mobile station. A plurality of MDCs including the reassigned MDCs into which the same contents are encapsulated are transmitted to the mobile station.

  • Patent number: 7110775
    Abstract: In calculation of a position of a terminal, there arises, when creating a delay profile, a problem to select a transmission code for a sector of a base station to create the delay profile. According to a position of a base station and a bearing of each antenna forming a sector of the base station, a wireless position calculation method selects a transmission code for a sector of a base station to create a delay profile. Under a condition that the number of delay profiles to be created is limited, each delay profile is created in consideration of the antenna bearing. Therefore, the number of base stations at mutually different positions is increased to calculate the position and precision of the position calculation is improved.

  • Publication number: 20060142017
    Abstract: A wireless communication system for high-speed motion use, capable of shortening the frequency channel search time and increasing the communication time available for service. The system includes an access point communicating on a designated one frequency channel and a mobile terminal communicating on the same received channel by receiving radio waves transmitted by the same access point. As for mobile terminal, in a storage, priority data is stored for a channel search in which arbitrary priorities can be set respectively for the channels. Frequency channel search sequence data, set up so that the number of times of appearance becomes greater for channels for which the priority data are set higher, are generated on the basis of the relative data, and a search of communication-capable channels is carried out in accordance with the same channel search sequence data.

  • Publication number: 20040116134
    Abstract: In a mobile communication using satellites, the present invention allows a mobile to receive a service wherever it is. To do so, when positioning the current location of a mobile using a satellite that sends the GPS signal, the mobile receives an electric wave directly from the satellite for performing positioning when the electric wave can be received directly from the satellite. On the other hand, when an electric wave cannot be received directly from the satellite, the mobile receives an electric wave from a pseudo-satellite or performs positioning using a wireless network between other mobiles and the mobile. Positioning may also be performed using an indoor wireless network.

  • Patent number: 6731905
    Abstract: In a P-MP fixed wireless access system using quasi-millimeter and millimeter wave bands, a relaying path is autonomously set up for subscriber stations without the need for additional provision of a repetition radio circuit using a costly MMIC. A subscriber station in the fixed wireless access system is provided with a repeating function for relaying signals between a different subscriber station and a base station, a buffer memory for temporarily storing signals to be communicated therebetween, and a table for registering information for identifying a relaying path between an own reference wireless station and a lower-level subscriber station for signal repetition. The base station is provided with a table in which, in order to perform signal communication with an arbitrary subscriber registered in the base station, routing information is registered for determining whether or not to set up a relaying path via a different subscriber station registered in the base station.
