  • Patent number: 10812096
    Abstract: A wireless communication device converts a signal component, which has one of distributed frequency bands in an analog RF signal and passes through one of a plurality of bandpass filters, into digital data with an AD converter that carries out undersampling. A sampling frequency of the AD converter is set so that frequencies which are integral multiples of a Nyquist frequency based on the sampling frequency do not fall within frequency bands of signal components which are of the RF signal and are to pass through the respective plurality of bandpass filters.

  • Patent number: 10797717
    Abstract: A signal processing device includes an A-D converter and a controller. The A-D converter converts an analog signal to a digital signal in which portions where the amplitude exceeds a predetermined range are clipped. A counter of the controller calculates, for the digital signal, a number of clipped samples for each predetermined number of period samples. A frequency converter performs frequency conversion of the digital signal. An LPF removes high frequency components of the digital signal. A rate converter converts a sampling rate of the A-D converter. A digital amplifier amplifies and outputs the digital signal. An amplification factor adjuster multiplies a preset amplification factor of the digital amplifier by an amplification factor adjustment coefficient based on a ratio of the number of regular samples to the number of period samples, to adjust the amplification factor.

  • Patent number: 10797780
    Abstract: Upon reception of ACK via a communication IF, an allocator allocates a channel of a repeater to be controlled to communications between wireless terminals. A determination unit determines whether channels allocatable to the communications between the wireless terminals are short. When the determination unit has determined that the allocatable channels are short, a switching controller controls at least one repeater, among repeaters to be controlled by a repeater controller, that serves as a controlling repeater to cause the repeater to transmit, to a wireless terminal standing by in the channel of the repeater, a switching signal designating standby in a channel of a repeater that is controlled by another repeater controller.

  • Patent number: 10742304
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide an audio communication system wherein a relaying device is connected to terminal devices, which are communication devices, via a communication network and wherein the relaying device is caused to manage the group of the terminal devices. [Solution] An audio communication system comprises: a master relaying device; one or more slave relaying devices connected to the master relaying device via a communication network; and one or more terminal devices connected to each relaying device via a communication network. Each slave relaying device transfers, to the master relaying device, audio signals received from the terminal device in charge of the slave relaying device. The master relaying device transfers the audio signals, which were received from each slave relaying device, to the slave relaying devices other than that slave relaying device.

  • Patent number: 10623574
    Abstract: [Problem] To enable priority communication using a terminal device by setting a particular mode in the terminal device by user operation and thereby increasing a priority of the terminal device. [Solution] A server as a relay device, in forming a new session, compares the priority of an existing session with the priority of the new session, and, if the priority of the new session is higher than the priority of the existing session, removes a competing terminal device participating in the existing session from the existing session and makes the competing terminal device participate in the new session.
