Patent number: 5818813Abstract: Data sequences correspond to L different parameter sets (effective symbol length, guard interval length, the number of carrier waves) and transformed into parallel data by respective serial/parallel converters, which are allocated to respective carrier waves for OFDM and subjected to inverse discrete Fourier transform by inverse discrete Fourier transformers to produce sampled values for the transmission waveform in the time domain. The sampled values are transformed into serial sequences of sampled values by parallel/serial converters and then into a single temporal sampling sequence by a temporal sampling sequence switching unit. A frame synchronizing symbol is added to the temporal sampling sequence and then transformed into an analog base band OFDM signal before it is converted up to a transmission signal. The frequency bandwidth of the OFDM signal is made smaller than a predetermined value defined by the bandwidth of the available transmission channel.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 1996Date of Patent: October 6, 1998Assignee: Advanced Digital Television Broadcasting LaboratoryInventors: Masafumi Saito, Tetsuomi Ikeda

Patent number: 5596582Abstract: In a receiver for an OFDM modulated transmission signal including at least one synchronizing symbol in each frame, the synchronizing symbol is located by stepwise shifting a window along a reception sample sequence to make a cross-correlation calculator (55) calculate cross-correlation values between a stored pattern produced from a pattern memory (53) and sequence portions picked up by the window, a maximum selector (57, 59) select two successive maxima of the cross-correlation values at a time interval substantially equal to a frame period, and a controllable clock generator (61-65) generate a clock sequence at the time interval for use in sampling the sample sequence. On a transmitter side, the at least one synchronizing symbol may either be preceded by a null period or be a main synchronizing symbol preceded by an auxiliary synchronizing symbol for use in roughly defining ranges in which the window should be shifted.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 1995Date of Patent: January 21, 1997Assignees: NEC Corporation, Nippon Hoso KyokaiInventors: Toru Sato, Masafumi Saito

Patent number: 5074256Abstract: A lubricating system for a valve seat of an internal combustion engine produces a lubricant oil film on the valve seat (7) of a seat ring (2) providing the valve seat. At least a part of the seat ring (2) providing the valve seat surface (7) is made of a porous material (6, 9) readily containing lubricant oil. The outer cylindrical surface of the seat ring (2) is formed with an annular groove (4) along its circumferential direction. A cylinder head (1) to which the seat ring (2) is fastened is formed with an oil passage (5) for feeding lubricant oil to the groove (4). Feeding of the lubricant oil through the oil passage (5) to the groove (4) causes the valve seat surface (7) providing the part of the seat ring (6, 9) made of the porous material to contain lubricant oil. The lubricant oil thus contained produces a lubricant oil film on the valve seat surface (7), which prevents wear in the valve head and the valve seat surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 1990Date of Patent: December 24, 1991Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Komatsu SeisakushoInventor: Masafumi Saito
