  • Publication number: 20220338013
    Abstract: An unauthorized communication detection method detects an unauthorized communication message on an in-facility network over which at least two devices including a first device and a second device are communicably connected, and includes: receiving, from the first device, a communication message transmitted from the first device to the second device; obtaining, when the communication message is received from the first device, first information indicating a state of at least one of (a) a person in a facility and (b) the at least two devices, and determining whether to execute processing pertaining to a device control command that controls the second device when the communication message received from the first device is a communication message including the device control command, the determining being performed based on the first information; and executing the processing pertaining to the device control command when the determining determines to execute the processing.

  • Patent number: 11123528
    Abstract: A balloon catheter includes a shaft and a balloon having one or more fold lines. The balloon is disposed outside the shaft, and the balloon includes one or more first regions and one or more second regions. The first region retains medicine on an outer surface of the balloon. The second region retains less medicine than the first region or retains no medicine.

  • Patent number: 10967157
    Abstract: A balloon catheter includes a shaft, and a balloon provided outside the shaft. A drug is provided on an outer surface of the balloon, and the balloon has at least a straight tube part. A change ratio of an outer diameter of the straight tube part, (D28?D24)/D24, is 1.1% or less. D24 is the outer diameter of the straight tube part when an internal pressure of 2.43 MPa (24 atm) is applied, and D28 is the outer diameter of the straight tube part when an internal pressure of 2.84 MPa (28 atm) is applied.

  • Patent number: 9011745
    Abstract: It is an object to stably provide a thin-walled flexible medical tube having excellent kink resistance and tensile strength by a simple manufacturing method. The object is achieved by a method for manufacturing a medical tube that includes a coil layer on an inside of an outer layer tube made of a resin, and the method includes inserting the coil layer into the outer layer tube and heating the outer layer tube at a molding temperature lower than a melting point of the outer layer tube, thereby bringing the outer layer tube into contact with the coil layer to slidably fix the outer layer tube onto the coil layer.

  • Publication number: 20110058594
    Abstract: In power line communication using a power line as a transmission path, a transmitter terminal transmits a communication signal while changing a phase parameter of the communication signal transmitted, in the continuous communication signal, according to an impedance variation amount on the transmission path. In this communication method, the communication signal is received stably with no variation in the phase parameter of the communication signal in response to the impedance variation amount on the transmission path, permitting high-speed data communication with reduced communication error.

  • Publication number: 20050105639
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of wirelessly transmitting data having continuity, while maintaining its continuity, from a transmission apparatus to a reception apparatus in real time. One of the transmission and reception apparatuses in which a recovery from a transmission abnormality generated during data transmission is completed notifies the other apparatus of a recovery completion notice via packet communication. The other apparatus receives the recovery completion notice and implements a recovery operation to dissolve the transmission abnormality generated therein in synchronization with a recovery operation of the one of the apparatuses.
