  • Patent number: 11330524
    Abstract: In a wireless communication terminal, a processor is configured to execute sleep determination when a wireless communicator receives a sleep-declaration packet from a sleep-declaration terminal. The processor is configured to determine that sleep by the sleep-declaration terminal is accepted if an upper-rank terminal in a wake-up state other than the sleep-declaration terminal is present. The processor is configured to determine that the sleep by the sleep-declaration terminal is not accepted in the first sleep determination if the upper-rank terminal in the wake-up state other than the sleep-declaration terminal is not present. The processor is configured to cause the wireless communicator to transmit a sleep-prohibition packet to the sleep-declaration terminal when the processor determines that the sleep by the sleep-declaration terminal is not accepted.

  • Patent number: 10687734
    Abstract: A server has a communicator, a decision unit, and a communication control unit. In a case in which a first condition and a second condition are satisfied, the decision unit decides to cause a first client to stop data transmission. In a case in which the first condition and a third condition are satisfied, the decision unit decides to cause a second client to stand by for the data transmission. The first condition indicates that an access point to which the first client is being connected is the same as an access point to which the second client is being connected. The second condition indicates that a priority of the first client is lower than a priority of the second client. The third condition indicates that priority information has not been received from the second client.

  • Patent number: 10356518
    Abstract: A technology is provided that can obtain two audio data with reduced noise, in a system including independent recording devices. A first frequency analyzer performs first frequency analysis on first audio data for each analysis range and generates first result information indicating the result of the first frequency analysis for each analysis range. A condition determinator determines the analysis range based on a first audio quality of the first audio data. A noise band detector detects a noise band for each analysis range based on the first result information and second result information. A first filter processor generates a first filter for filtering data of a noise band for each analysis range, applies a first filter process by the first filter on first audio data for each analysis range, and generates third audio data.

  • Patent number: 9570056
    Abstract: An audio data synthesis method including a time of a plurality of audio data is adjusted without using a device which can acquire the standard time. Specifically, audio data is obtained based on synchronized recording of the first and second recorders without using standard time. A time difference is calculated between an own terminal and another terminal, based on the time at which output of a first sound from the audio output module is started, a time at which input of a sound corresponding to the audio data to the audio input module is started, a time indicated by the first information, and a time indicated by the second information. Second and third audio data is synthesized after a time difference between the second and third audio data based on the third sound which is input to the audio input module is adjusted, based on the time difference.
