Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a signal process in which a countermeasure against eavesdropping over a physical layer in a wireless communication is performed. An optical signal generation unit 11 generates, as an optical signal, multivalued information that is in a multivalued state and is based on prescribed data. An E/O conversion unit 112 converts the optical signal to an electrical signal. An optical signal amplification unit 12 amplifies the optical signal. An O/E conversion unit 13 converts the optical signal to an electrical signal. A radio wave transmission unit 14 transmits, as a radio wave, the multivalued information converted into the electrical signal. The problem is solved thereby.

Abstract: This invention addresses the problem of improving safety in data transmission/reception, and improving the convenience thereof. A base selection unit 123 of an optical transmission device 1 selects a base for arranging each piece of unit information on an IQ plane. A randomization amount adjustment unit 125 adjusts, on the basis of feedback, the randomization amount in random arrangement of the unit information pieces on the IQ plane. A cryptography signal generation unit 13 generates, as an optical signal, multi-value information equivalent to the random arrangement of the unit information pieces on the IQ plane, within the range of the adjusted randomization amount, in accordance with the selected base. An identification circuit unit 222 of an optical reception device 2 identifies, on the basis of the received optical signal, each of the unit information pieces constituting the multi-value information.

Abstract: The present invention improves data transmission safety and data transfer rate, and reduces an increase in costs when doing so. A map management unit 141 manages a map which defines a prescribed rule for dividing pseudorandom number data into two. On the basis of the rule defined by the map, a division unit 142 generates data obtained by dividing the pseudorandom number data into two as vertically irregular mapping input data and horizontally irregular mapping input data. A vertically irregular mapping unit 151 generates data obtained by subjecting the vertically irregular mapping input data to irregular mapping processing as vertical base reference point data. A horizontally irregular mapping unit 152 generates data obtained by subjecting the horizontally irregular mapping input data to irregular mapping processing as horizontal base reference point data.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of improving data transmission/reception equipment and transmission efficiency per hour. A light output unit 111 of a light transmitting/receiving device outputs n optical signals (where n is an integer value of 2 or more), each with a different wavelength, based on n respective pieces of data to be transmitted. From the n optical signals, a multiplexer 112 produces an optical signal multiplexed with respect to wavelength. From the multiplexed optical signal, an encryption unit 113 produces an encrypted signal by performing multi-level modulation on the basis of a Y-00 protocol. The problem is solved thereby.

Abstract: The purposes of the present invention are to improve safety of data transmission and a data transfer rate and to reduce an increase in costs for the improvement. An encryption unit 111 of a transmission device 1 generates encrypted data that allow plain data thereof to be uniquely identified A segmentation unit 121 segments the encrypted data into two types of basal signal point number information on the basis of map data provided by a map management unit 122. A basal signal point number generation unit 113 generates basal signal point number information used as information to be transmitted, on the basis of a set of the two types of information, i.e. horizontal basal signal point number information and vertical basal signal point number information.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a heat exchanger that can more efficiently remove the frost attached to the heat exchanger. A configuration of a heat exchanger according to the present invention includes a heat transfer member (e.g., a fin) that performs heat exchange with air, wherein the heat transfer member (e.g., the fin) includes, in a vicinity of an upstream-side edge in an air traveling direction, a plurality of linear protruding portions that are formed in parallel to the edge.
