Patent number: 8532570Abstract: A wireless communication device is provided and includes: a first data communication unit performing communication by an electromagnetic induction system, a second data communication unit performing communication at higher speed than the first communication unit by using a system and/or a communication frequency band different from the first data communication unit, and a control unit controlling communication operations of the first data communication unit and the second data communication unit. The control unit performs communication by using the second data communication unit while a carrier signal is transmitted from the first data communication unit.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2009Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Tadashi Fukami, Tomoyuki Hiura

Patent number: 7586705Abstract: A magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus is disclosed wherein reproduced signals read out from a plurality of recording tracks using a reproducing head can be separated into original recording signals of the recording tracks. Upon recording, an identification signal which has a recording wavelength equal to or greater than a minimum recording wavelength and causes no interference of any of the recording tracks with any adjacent one of the recording tracks is appended to and recorded together with a recording signal in order to allow, upon reproduction, acquisition of the position information of the reproducing head with respect to the plural recording tracks of the magnetic recording medium. Upon reproduction, a reproduced signal for each of the recording tracks of the magnetic recording medium is generated on the basis of the positional information read from the recording tracks.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2007Date of Patent: September 8, 2009Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Tomoyuki Hiura, Hiroyuki Ino, Toshiyuki Nakagawa, Norihito Mihota, Tomohiro Ikegami, Shinichi Fukuda, Yoshihiko Deoka, Hidetoshi Honda, Masaaki Hara

Patent number: 7139146Abstract: A replay signal, obtained on reproducing a recording medium, on which has been recorded a digital signal, is supplied to an input terminal (1), and quantized by an A/D converter (8). The so quantized signal is processed by an integrator (20), formed by a first order IIR filter, so as to be adjusted in gain by an amplifier (21). The quantized replay signal is also processed by a differentiator formed by a combination of a first order FIR filter (22) and a first order IIR filter (23) so as to be then adjusted in gain by an amplifier (24). The resulting signal is then supplied to an adder (25) where it is subtracted from an output signal of the amplifier (21). In this manner, the differentiation/integration equalizer, formed by an analog circuit, is constructed by a digital circuit of a simplified configuration without raising the number of orders of the filters. The replay signal is processed by differentiation/integration such as to satisfy the equalization standard.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2003Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Tomoyuki Hiura, Hiroyuki Ino
