Publication number: 20050002414Abstract: A wireless communication method and a wireless communication apparatus, in which standby power is efficiently reduced and throughput is rarely affected, are provided. A terminal station enters a reception standby state of waiting for data that arrives from another station at a step [1]. Then, when data is received from another station at a step [2], whether the data is addressed thereto or addressed to another station is judged at a step [3]. If the data is addressed to another station, the terminal station returns to the reception standby state. Also, if the data is judged to be addressed thereto at the step [3], the arrival time of data is stored and estimated arrival time t is computed at a step [4]. In case that it is not possible to compute the estimated arrival time t, the terminal station returns to the reception standby state again and collects differential time T between the previous time.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2004Publication date: January 6, 2005Applicant: Sony CorporationInventor: Hirosada Miyaoka

Patent number: 6246961Abstract: A collision alarm method and apparatus for vehicles in which, in order to detect and alarm of danger of collision, the time of possible collision is calculated by a danger judgement means from optical flow. In order for an image processing means to detect the optical flow, a horizontal or vertical noticeable edge is used, which edge is extracted from two images obtained at different times with an image photographing means. The collision alarm method and apparatus for vehicles detect danger of collision at high speed and gives a timely alarm so as to enable collision avoiding action to be securely taken.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 1999Date of Patent: June 12, 2001Assignee: Yazaki CorporationInventors: Kazuyuki Sasaki, Naoto Ishikawa, Masato Nakajima, Hirosada Miyaoka
