  • Publication number: 20100022210
    Abstract: In an image rejection mixer of a receiving device of the invention, when a signal of a first radio frequency band is input to input terminal, first mixer and second mixer convert the input signal of the first radio frequency band into a signal of a first intermediate frequency band by the use of a first local signal from local signal oscillation unit and a filter circuit attenuates an image disturbing signal existing in the first intermediate frequency band, and when a signal of a second radio frequency band is input to the input terminal, first mixer and second mixer convert the input signal of the second radio frequency band into a signal of a second intermediate frequency band by the use of a second local signal from the local signal oscillation unit and the filter circuit attenuates an image disturbing signal existing in the second intermediate frequency band. The first intermediate frequency band and the second intermediate frequency band are partly overlapped with each other.

  • Patent number: 7580690
    Abstract: A high-frequency receiver capable of improving both an interference-resistant characteristic and reception sensitivity is provided. A gain switch control unit includes: a signal level determination unit comparing a gain control voltage of an amplifying circuit with a reference voltage; and a gain switch controller provided between an output terminal of the signal level determination unit and a gain control input terminal provided to an amplifying circuit for gain control. When receiving a signal in a strong electric field area having a high possibility that a strong interference signal exists, a gain of the amplifying circuit is set to be smaller than that in a case of receiving a signal in a weak electric field area by a gain switch signal output from the gain switch controller.

  • Patent number: 7409521
    Abstract: By referring to data stored in a capacity management information storage unit, a capacity distribution control unit distributes additional capacity to a supervision target resource whose current available capacity has become less than a prescribed threshold value by using real volumes in the unit's own site when the real volumes in the unit's own site can deal with the situation, and access another site (remote site 50) by using an iSCSI protocol, temporarily use real volume in said another site, and distributes additional capacity to the supervision target resource when the situation can not be dealt with by the real volumes in the unit's own site, and further, an aggregation unit can aggregate data stored in the temporarily used real volumes in said another site to an available region in the unit's own site, and release the temporarily used real volumes in said another site.

  • Patent number: 7359691
    Abstract: Disclosed is a high frequency apparatus which eliminates an influence of interfering signals. An interference-cut filter (24) for eliminating interfering signals is disposed between an input terminal (22) and a mixer (27). The interference-cut filter (24) is so controlled that it effectively demonstrates the function while the interfering signals are transmitted. Control of the interference-cut filter (24) is made by a switch (23), which is controlled by a selector switch controller (39), and the switch controller (39) is controlled responsive to an error correction counter (38) and a radio wave transmitted from a cellular telephone (40). This structure eliminates interference attributable to communication signals transmitted by the cellular telephone (40) and undesirable signals entering from the outside. The invention can thus realize high quality reception.

  • Patent number: 6040922
    Abstract: In a communication between transmitter-side and receiver-side communication control devices, when a data communication is desired after a facsimile communication without opening a telephone line, the transmitter-side communication control device transmits a data communication shift request signal to the receiver-side communication control device based on a previous command inputted to the transmitter-side communication control device. In response to this request signal, the receiver-side communication control device switches a communication mode from a facsimile communication mode to a data communication mode, and then sends back a data communication shift acknowledge signal to the transmitter-side communication control device. In response to this acknowledge signal, the transmitter-side communication control device switches a communication mode from a facsimile communication mode to a data communication mode.
