Abstract: Disclosed is a MIMO system including a transmitter and a receiver, in which an overall BER characteristic is improved. The transmitter (1) maps data, distributed among transmit antennas, onto an IQ plane to generate carrier symbols, and then, applies an inter-polarization interleave processing in a time direction to the carrier symbols between the transmit antennas, to generate OFDM signals. Receiving the OFDM signals, the receiver (2) demodulates the OFDM signals to generate complex baseband signals, and after that, applies a first deinterleave processing in a time direction to the complex baseband signals to generate time deinterleaved data. Further, the receiver (2) applies a MIMO separation processing to the time deinterleaved data to generate a plurality of sets of MIMO separated data and applies a second deinterleave processing between the receive antennas to the plurality of sets of MIMO separated data, so as to generate carrier symbols.

Abstract: In a press-forming method, a plurality of plates are prepared and end faces of the plurality of plates are butt joined to obtain a blank having joined portions. The blank has deformed-shape sections formed in a vicinity of the joined portion so as to deform in a direction along which peripheral lengths of the deformed-shape sections are stretched. Press-forming, involving stretch-flange formation, is carried out on the blank so as to allow the joined portions to be included in stretching regions, respectively. Also, the stretch-flange formation is carried out on the blank while restraining ends of the joined portion of the blank.

Abstract: A caulking method for joining a first plate having a tapered hole and a hollow cylindrical caulking portion extending from a periphery of the tapered hole, and a second plate having a hole, the method including inserting the caulking portion of the first plate through the hole of the second plate to project a tip end portion of the caulking portion beyond the hole and overlay the second plate on the first plate, and folding back the tip end portion of the caulking portion over a periphery of the hole of the second plate on one side surface thereof, while pressing against a beveled surface defining the tapered hole so as to prevent a material of the caulking portion from flowing toward the other side surface of the first plate along the periphery of the tapered hole.

Abstract: This invention concerns a production method and a processing apparatus for semiconductor devices, as well as an evacuating apparatus used for the processing apparatus. According to this invention, since the evacuation system of pressure-reduction processing apparatus for conducting various wafer processings during production steps of semiconductor devices is constituted only with oil-free vacuum pump, deleterious oil contaminations or carbonation products of oils produced from oils upon heating are not present in the pressure-reducing processing chamber as compared with conventional pressure-reducing processing apparatus using a vacuum oil pump as an evacuation pump and the production method of semiconductor devices using such apparatus.
