Abstract: A radio communication apparatus uses an intermediate frequency section to convert a signal from a receiver into an intermediate frequency signal. The intermediate frequency signal is filtered in a filter section, and then demodulated. Matching circuits with variable circuit constants connect the filter section with the intermediate frequency section and the demodulator. A control section supplies a transmitter with an input signal which is then transmitted to the receiver, converted to an intermediate frequency, filtered, and demodulated. The control section adjusts the variable circuit constants in accordance with the input signal and the demodulated signal. Thus, inappropriate circuit constants are adjusted so that the radio apparatus has a high receiving sensitivity without a mismatch.

Abstract: There is provided an adjustment circuit which delays a first and a second signal by a desired delay. After the first and the second signal are inputted to the adjustment circuit via a first and a second signal line, respectively, the first and the second signal are exchanged and are inputted via the second and the first signal line, respectively. A detection circuit receives the first and the second signal from the adjustment circuit, and detects the phase differences of these signals, before and after the exchange. The holding circuit holds a first phase difference detected by the detection circuit before the exchange, and holds a second phase difference detected by the detection circuit after the exchange. When the holding circuit holds the first and the second phase difference, a comparison circuit compares these phase differences. A counter counts in accordance with the comparison results of the comparison circuit, and sets the desired delay of the adjustment circuit.

Abstract: A portable information terminal device with a radio selective-calling receiver including first and second receiver sections with first and second antennas, respectively, implements an improvement of the reception sensitivity deterioration caused by the noise of a personal computer attached to the device with any increase of the dissipation current generated by the receiver maintained at a minimum. Only when the portable information terminal device is connected to the personal computer will it operate in a diversity reception mode to implement both receiving sections, improving reception sensitivity deterioration. When the portable information terminal device is not connected to the personal computer, diversity reception is not implemented, thus permitting only one of the receiving sections to receive.

Abstract: In a subscriber number transmission system in a multi-directional multiple communication system, a local switch generates a ringing signal and then generates an originator subscriber number. A base station generates a call reception message signal in response to the ringing signal from the local switch and stores the originator subscriber number transmitted from the local switch. A terminal station connected to a subscriber terminal receives the call reception message signal from the base station. In response to the call reception message signal, the terminal station outputs a ringing signal to the subscriber terminal and generates an originator subscriber number request message to the base station. The base station transmits the originator subscriber number in response to the originator subscriber number request message. The terminal station receives the originator subscriber number from the base station to output to the subscriber terminal.

Abstract: At a transmitter side, signals are provided with a delay difference with a plurality of branches, coded multiplexed by spectrum spreaders and a combination unit, and transmitted by a single antenna. At a receiver side, the signals are received by a single antenna, and diversity branches are extracted and separated by first and second spectrum de-spreaders. They are subject to linear combination so that the mean square of the decision error signals is minimized. The output passes through an adaptive matched filter and an adaptive equalizer so as to provide an output from which interference waves are eliminated. Thus, interference is eliminated and diversity gain for a signal is ensured, while reducing the scale and cost of a system without using a plurality of antennae.
