Abstract: Transparent data transmission service is kept optimal in the quality provided. A transmission quality monitor section, provided in a base-band signal processing circuit of each apparatus, monitors an error in reception data and an response, to the data transmitted, of from an opposite apparatus, thereby measuring an error rate. When the error rate exceeds a set level, the transmission scheme as to transparent data is switched over to a scheme higher in probability of normal reception (e.g. packets added with error correction codes). Meanwhile, when the error rate lowers to a set level or lower, the transmission scheme as to transparent data is switched over to a scheme higher in transmission efficiency.
Abstract: A heat exchanger, which performs heat exchanging between a lubricating oil circulating within a transfer device disposed behind an engine and an engine coolant, also functions as a mass member of a dynamic damper. The heat exchanger is disposed at an upper face of a transfer case via a resilient member. Herein, the resilient member is comprised of a first metal plate, a second metal plate, and a rubber member interposed between the first and second metal plates, and there are provided lubricating passages flowing within the resilient member. Accordingly, there can be provided the vibration suppression device of the power train that can suppress vibration properly regardless of the temperature changing and advantage the weight reduction without requiring any new disposition space.
Abstract: The nucleic acid and amino acid sequences for proteinaceous elicitors of the plant defense reaction known as the hypersensitive response are described along with methods for preparation and processes for inactivation.
