  • Patent number: 8548094
    Abstract: A transmission device includes an RQAM modulating unit that has an S/P that divides a transmitting signal indicating information to be transmitted into a first signal and a second signal, a mapping unit that maps the first signal into a first in-phase component and a second in-phase component and the second signal into a first orthogonal component and a second orthogonal component by a predetermined mapping system, a P/S that generates a first modulated signal including the first in-phase component and the first orthogonal component and a second modulated signal including the second in-phase component and the second orthogonal component, an IFFT that transmits the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal, a DAC, an LPF, a Mixer, a BPF, and a LOCAL OSCILLATOR.

  • Publication number: 20120172745
    Abstract: Disclosed is a muscle synergy analysis which comprises detecting a myoelectric signal generated at each muscle of an antagonistic muscle pair group of a subject; calculating, as time-series data, an antagonistic muscle ratio of an antagonistic muscle pair at a myoelectric signal level from a myoelectric signal detected during a predetermined motion by the subject; and conducting multi variate analysis using the antagonistic muscle ratio at each time of the time-series data as a variable to calculate a principal component including at least a first principal component having high contribution to correlation.

  • Publication number: 20110306374
    Abstract: A wireless communication system including a master station, and slave stations that execute a predetermined operation based on an operation instruction transmitted by the master station, in which the master station includes a normal frame processor that generates an operation instruction, and a Go/Stop signal processor that generates an execution instruction signal instructing to execute the operation instruction to transmit the signal when a response to the operation instruction is obtained from all the slave stations during a predetermined response waiting time, each of the slave stations include an execution-instruction-signal receiving unit that receives the execution instruction signal, and the execution-instruction-signal receiving unit executes an operation corresponding to the execution instruction signal when receiving the execution instruction signal or waits execution of the corresponding operation until the execution instruction signal corresponding to the operation instruction is received.

  • Publication number: 20110243117
    Abstract: A combination-information creating unit creates combination information for determining a maximum number of combinations or a maximum frame length according to a usable radio band and a modulation method and combination possibility information for indicating that a combination of frames is possible. A frame combining unit combines a plurality of frames received from an outside access line, based on the combination information, the combination possibility information, and predetermined packet information. A frame dividing unit divides a combined frame included in a received radio signal into individual frames.

  • Publication number: 20070155393
    Abstract: A reception processing unit measures reception states of input reception signals of each of a plurality of channels, generates local channel reception information, and applies a reception processing to the input reception signals to generate decoded signals. A media-access-control unit generates transmission frames for each of the channels using transmission data. A transmission processing unit generates radio signals including each of the transmission frames. A channel-information processing unit generates local feedback information, and inserts the local feedback information generated into at least one of the radio signals that are transmitted by the radio communication apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20060121921
    Abstract: A MAC unit divides data to be transmitted into number of applying channels, thereby generating transmission data. An applying-channel notifying unit inserts channel information for identifying an applying channel into a used area of the transmission data. Transmission processing units corresponding to the applying channels generate radio frames from the transmission data into which the channel information is inserted, and transmit the generated radio frames to the radio communication apparatus at the reception side.
