Abstract: A direct-conversion type wireless receiver includes a pair of mixers for frequency-converting a radio signal received from an antenna into a base band signal by local signals having different phases; a first amplification circuit for amplifying the base band signal up to a demodulation level; a second amplification circuit provided between the mixer and the first amplification circuit; and a variable current circuit including a multi-stage current mirror to add a current 2n times as high as a reference current. The wireless receiver further includes a control unit configured to correct a DC offset of the mixer by allowing a current to flow into the second amplification circuit from the variable current circuit, based on an output of the first amplification circuit, and a capacitor connected between a gate and a source of a PchMOSFET which allows the reference current to flow therethrough.

Abstract: A system and method for electronically completing a transaction between a user and network access vendors potentially providing a network access for the user. The system is preferably implemented in software program. The system allows an occasional user to offer payable access fee over a computer or communications network. If the plural network access vendors judge whether to accept, reject or counter the offer, the user gets the acceptance, rejection or counteroffer. The user getting the acceptance or counteroffer can contract with the network access vendor providing it at favorable price.

Abstract: A gas insulation switch has a container charged with insulating gas which contains an electric conductor and at least a pair of contactors. The container is divided into a plurality of sections. For the sections which have no switching devices or separable contactors, a different insulating gas is used as compared with that for the sections having breakers or separable contactors. In particular, in the section of the container, such as a grounding tank, that contains only electric conductors without separable contactors, an insulating gas having a smaller earth warming coefficient or global warming coefficient than that of SF6 gases is used. On the other hand, for the section of the grounding tank which contains a breaker or switch having separable contactors, an SF6 insulating gas is used.
