  • Publication number: 20170176587
    Abstract: A snow quality measuring apparatus according to one aspect of the present invention includes a plurality of reflectors, at least one transmitter, at least one receiver, and a measuring device. The plurality of reflectors are respectively arranged at a plurality of prescribed heights above the ground. The transmitter emits radio waves towards the plurality of reflectors, and the receiver receives the reflected waves of the radio waves from the plurality of reflectors. The measuring device measures snow quality of snow on the ground at the prescribed plurality of heights based on the respective reflected waves to from the plurality of reflectors as received by the receiver.

  • Patent number: 9306275
    Abstract: A passive element has an electrical length such that a resonance mode thereof is in a target frequency band, and first and second feed elements, each of which has an electrical length such that a resonance mode thereof is not in the target frequency band. The first feed element has a first coupling conductive part, and a first connecting conductive part, which has a continuous shape with the first coupling conductive part. The second feed element has a second coupling conductive part, and a second connecting conductive part, which has a continuous shape with the second coupling conductive part. The first coupling conductive part is disposed parallel and adjacent to the passive element. The second coupling conductive part is disposed parallel and adjacent to the passive element. The first connecting conductive part and the second connecting conductive part are disposed adjacent and parallel to each other.

  • Publication number: 20150126131
    Abstract: In a wireless communication device, a reactance element is connected in series between an input/output terminal of a wireless communication and an impedance-matching circuit. A measuring reactance element is provided in an external measuring device, and the types and circuit contacts of respective elements are chosen such that when the reactance element and the measuring reactance element are connected in parallel during power measurement, they together form a band-stop filter circuit that blocks signals of a prescribed frequency band outputted from the wireless communication circuit.
