Abstract: A method and apparatus which corrects errors in a receive vector and a receiver. An essentially conventional method and apparatus are used to produce a polynomial representation of the receive vector, syndromes associated with the receive vector, and a Galios Field table. An inventive method and apparatus is used to generate an error location polynomial table and thus an error location polynomial which can then be used to locate and correct a maximum number of errors in the receive vector. The inventive method includes comparing previously generated entities in an error location polynomial table to one another to determine which of the previously generated entries should be used in generating a next entry to the error location polynomial table.

Abstract: When an SP key is operated when power from a commercial utility is disconnected, an energized state forming circuit forms an energized state from a subscriber's line and power is supplied from the subscriber's power supply section through the energized state forming circuit to a microcomputer. The microcomputer thus is operated from the subscriber's line even after power failure occurs.

Abstract: A cordless telephone consisting of base and handset units is disclosed wherein a control circuit incorporated in the base unit comprises first and second D/A converters, first and second A/D converters, and first and second sync. signal generation circuits. The first and second D/A converters respectively convert digital signals from the handset unit and a PBX. The first and second A/D converters convert the analog signals provided from the first and second D/A converters to transmit them to the PBX and handset unit, respectively. The first sync. signal generation circuit regenerates a first clock signal synchronously with a sync. signal provided from the PBX to render the first A/D and second D/A converters to operate in synchronism with the sync. signal from the PBX. The second sync. signal generation circuit generates a second clock signal which is independent of the sync. signal from the PBX to render the first D/A and second A/D converters to operate in synchronism with the second clock signal.

Abstract: For use with communications equipment, a handset unit that does not require a mold solely for the preparation of a window member, does not incur increased manufacturing costs, can be manufactured without requiring a special step for mounting the window member only to a handset unit cover, and has a reinforced recess for engagement with a hook. The handset unit includes a window member (22B) and a body (22A) that are integrated to form a speaker holder (22). A recess (60) for engagement with a hook is provided at the lower end of the member (22). The window member is fixed to the handset cover near the recess (60).

Abstract: A land mobile radio communication system has a plurality of cell cites, each of which includes a plurality of repeaters. The mobil radios in the cell transmit and receive both data and audio. The date component of the signal is carred as low-frequency subaudible information. In operation the system determines the number of repeaters that are available. When the system has determined that more than a predetermined number of the repeaters are available, all of the repeaters are set to repeat audio and to transmit and to receive data. However, when the system determines that only the predetermined number of repeaters are available, all of the repeaters, except for the ones of the repeaters in the predetermined number, are set to repeat audio and to transmit and receive data. The ones of the repeaters in the predetermined number are set to only transmit and receive data.

Abstract: The present invention provides an antenna for radio communication equipment used as an antenna for portable radio equipment or the like which has been required to be downsized.

Abstract: A method for setting a bit determination threshold for determining the logic state of a bit in a data bit stream of an NRZ (non-return-to-zero) signal in a GMSK (gaussian minimum shift keying) communication system includes the step of sensing the occurrence of a "flat top" bit in the data bit stream, which signifies the occurrence of a first string of successive same state bits in the data bit stream, where the bits are in a first logic state, such as logic 1. The average bit amplitude of the information signal corresponding to the "flat top" bit of the first string is determined. The occurrence of a second "flat top" bit in the data bit stream which signifies the occurrence of a second string of successive same state bits which are of an opposite logic state, such as logic 0, is then sensed, and the average bit amplitude of the second "flat top" bit of the second string is determined.

If the requested time of operation is within the window, telecommunication services are established. On the other hand, if the requested time of operation falls outside the window, telecommunication services are denied.
