Patent number: 7567615Abstract: The present invention provides an adaptive equalization circuit and adaptive equalization method that can perform signal processing on a small scale with good computation accuracy, and can improve the reproducing signal quality and improve the playability of abnormal signals. According to the present invention, an equalization target value (true target value) in the sampling frequency area is determined by the equalization target value generation means (104) from the signals in the resampling frequency area after phase synchronization is performed, and the tap factors of the pre-digital equalization means (102) can be adaptively computed from this equalization target value and the input/output signals of the pre-digital equalization means (102).Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2003Date of Patent: July 28, 2009Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventor: Hirotaka Ochi

Patent number: 7161127Abstract: An automatic focusing apparatus includes a photographing unit for photographing a transmitted light generated by applying a light to an observation target from a light source and an index value operation unit for operating to obtain an index value indicating focus information for the observation target from the image data outputted from the photographing unit. The automatic focusing apparatus also includes a focus controller for controlling a focus of the photographing unit so as to obtain an optimal focus position for the observation target on the basis of the index value, and uses a threshold value obtained from a background color of the image data to discriminate between the observation target and dust, thereby enabling proper automatic focusing on the target to observed even from the image data having the observation target and dust mixed.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2005Date of Patent: January 9, 2007Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventor: Hirotaka Ochi
