  • Publication number: 20070135150
    Abstract: To reduce the processing load such as channel assignment and an authentication process in a plurality of radio base stations and communication terminals, and quickly and efficiently assign channels to the communication channels. The channel assigning method by a radio base station group, includes determining assignment of a communication channel between a communication terminal entering a radio area of the radio station group and all radio base stations within the radio station group by a base station in the radio base station group. Channel assigning information common to the radio base station group is updated as to the determined communication channel and a communication channel is assigned to the communication terminal with reference to the channel assigning information by each radio base station in the radio base station group other than the radio base station.

  • Patent number: 5940029
    Abstract: An array antenna radar apparatus has a single front end shared by a plurality of antennas, a first switch for cyclically connecting the antennas to the front end at a prescribed switching frequency, and a second switch for cyclically connecting the output of the front end to frequency converters corresponding to the antennas. The frequency converters frequency-convert intermediate-frequency signals of the respective antennas output by the front end to baseband signals at the switching frequency. Phase shifters and amplitude adjusting units apply a phase shift or amplitude adjustment to the outputs of the frequency converters and combine the resulting signals, thereby making it possible to detect a target in a desired direction.

  • Patent number: 5381153
    Abstract: A FM-CW radar device is provided for frequency-modulating a high frequency signal with a modulation signal, transmitting the modulated high frequency signal, receiving a signal reflected by a target object and frequency-modulating the reflection signal with a signal generated by a local oscillator signal source provided by branching a portion of the transmitting signal. A modulator is disposed between a radar transmitting section and a transmitting antenna. The modulator modulates the transmitting signal with a second frequency which is far lower than the radar transmitting frequency and twice as much as the sum or the difference of a Doppler frequency generated by a relative propagation velocity and a beat frequency generated by a propagation delay time. A first frequency converter frequency modulates the received signal reflected by the target object with the local oscillator.

  • Patent number: 5095283
    Abstract: An amplifier circuit includes a high-gain amplifier, and a feedback circuit for extracting an unstable output having a level equal to or less than a threshold level from an amplified signal from the amplifier and for feeding back the unstable signal to the amplifier, so that the amplifier oscillates at a predetermined oscillation frequency. The amplifier circuit also includes a band rejection filter for passing signal components of the amplified signal other than an oscillation output which is obtained at the output terminal of the amplifier when the amplifier oscillates at the predetermined oscillation frequency. The signal components obtained from the band rejection filter are an output signal of the amplifier circuit.
