  • Patent number: 9332543
    Abstract: A mobile radio device capable of receiving a radio signal whose frequency band switches, includes a setting unit that when the frequency band of the radio signal is a first frequency band, sets a first threshold corresponding to the first frequency band, and that when the frequency band switches from the first frequency band to a second frequency band different from the first frequency band, sets for a given period, a third threshold that is between the first threshold and a second threshold corresponding to the second frequency band and subsequently sets the second threshold; and a determining unit that determines a travel speed of the mobile radio device, based on a comparison of a moving average obtained by temporally accumulating variations of estimates of propagation characteristics of the radio signal and averaging the accumulated variations by a moving average method using a threshold set by the setting unit.

  • Publication number: 20130331151
    Abstract: In a communication terminal, a communication occurrence notifying unit detects occurrence of data communication. A determining unit determines whether the data communication occurs and whether an SCRI is transmitted based on a time set in a timer. A transmitting unit transits the SCRI to a network according to the determination result of the determining unit. The determining unit determines whether the SCRI is transmitted based on an expiration time of “N×S” seconds longer than “N×P” seconds, after the SCRI is transmitted in accordance with expiration of “N×P” seconds.

  • Patent number: 8171363
    Abstract: A method for counting correctly substantial transmission times of a data unit such as an RLC-PDU even if the data unit is divided before being transmitted is provided. The method includes the steps of preparing a counter for the RLC-PDU (#503), making a storage portion store a pointer indicating a position of a division PDU of the RLC-PDU to be transmitted every time when the division PDU obtained by dividing the RLC-PDU is transmitted (#504), determining whether or not the transmission times should be counted along with a transmission of the division PDU to be transmitted based on the pointer of the division PDU to be transmitted and the pointer of a division PDU that was transmitted last time (#505, #506 and #507), and making the counter perform the count process when it is determined that the transmission times should be counted (#508).
