Patent number: 9654319Abstract: Provided is a non-contact communication apparatus which uses a conventional IC chip without any change, while eliminating the need to transmit power to the IC chip and allowing an increase in communication range. A non-contact communication apparatus connectable to an IC chip includes an antenna section, a first detection section that retrieves a first detection signal from a signal received by the antenna section, an amplitude modulating section that amplitude-modulates a clock signal using the first detection signal retrieved by the first detection section and that inputs the amplitude-modulated signal to the IC chip, a second detection section that retrieves a second detection signal from an output signal from the IC chip, a load modulating section that load-modulates a carrier retrieved from the antenna section using the second detection signal retrieved by the second detection section and that inputs the load-modulated carrier to the antenna section, and a power supply section.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2013Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: QUADRAC CO., LTD.Inventors: Susumu Kusakabe, Fumio Kubono, Masanobu Sato, Keiichi Nanbu

Patent number: 8977188Abstract: A radio communication system whereby a range is enabled and communication control and quality can be ideally maintained even if the communication distance changes. The transmitting apparatus has a transmitting unit that repeatedly transmits one data packet; a receiving unit that repeatedly receives a response packet; an integrating unit that integrates a repeatedly received response packet; and a determining unit that determines, by use of a result of the integration, whether the received response packet is correct. The receiving apparatus has a receiving unit that repeatedly receives a data packet; an integrating unit that integrates a repeatedly received data packet; a determining unit that determines, by use of a result of the integration, whether the received data packet is correct; and a transmitting unit that repeatedly transmits the response packet when determination is made that the received data packet is correct.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2010Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignee: QUADRAC Co., Ltd.Inventors: Susumu Kusakabe, Fumio Kubono, Mamoru Suzuki
