  • Patent number: 11848770
    Abstract: To extend the number of bits of an identifier without affecting the number of data bits to be transmitted. The present disclosure provides a receiving apparatus (1102) that identifies a transmitting apparatus (1101) based on a first identifier (10) having been individually given to each transmitting apparatus in order to identify the transmitting apparatus and a second identifier (20) which is for identifying the transmitting apparatus and which is shared among a plurality of transmitting apparatuses. According to this configuration, the number of bits of an identifier can be extended without affecting the number of data bits.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10787693
    Abstract: Single-chain ?-glucans can be obtained by hydrothermal treatment of a solution containing (1,3)(1,6)-?-glucan for a predetermined time in a temperature range of from 145° C. to 200° C. at a pressure at or above the saturated vapor pressure at the treatment temperature. ?-Glucans capable of maintaining a single-chain state for an extended period of time can be produced without chemical treatment.

  • Patent number: 8869213
    Abstract: A reception device includes a first input terminal receiving a first television broadcast signal of a first frequency band or a mixed wave of the first television broadcast signal and a second television broadcast signal of a second frequency band; a second input terminal receiving the second television broadcast signal; first and second tuner; a matching unit extracting a second broadcast signal from a broadcast signal received from a first circuit terminal and outputting the extracted second broadcast signal from a second circuit terminal; a first connection portion selectively performing a connection between the first input terminal and the first circuit terminal of the matching unit; and a second connection portion setting an input path of the second television broadcast signal to the second tuner to a path from the second input terminal or a path from the second circuit terminal of the matching unit.

  • Patent number: 6798383
    Abstract: A built-in antenna applied to sending and reception of radio waves of a few giga cycles is improved and made smaller, and is made suitable for industrial production and has its tuning bandwidth widened. “An antenna pattern (6) which resonates at &lgr;/4” is formed on a substrate (5) and a zigzag portion (6a) is provided on a portion of the antenna pattern (6) which resonates at &lgr;/4. On the other hand, the substrate (5) and a bobbin (8) are supported by a metallic frame (7), and “a helical coil (9) which resonates at &lgr;/4” is wound and formed upon the bobbin (8). Capacitance (c) is provided between the antenna pattern (6) which resonates at &lgr;/4 and the helical coil (9) to electrically couple them.

  • Patent number: 6763223
    Abstract: A reception signal of a horizontally polarized wave and a reception signal of a vertically polarized wave from one satellite are amplified by a first pair of low noise amplifiers, and a reception signal of a horizontally polarized wave and a reception signal of a vertically polarized wave from another satellite are amplified by a second pair of low noise amplifiers. One of the low noise amplifiers is selected in accordance with the polarized wave and the satellite, and the signal from the selected low noise amplifier is supplied to a further low noise amplifier through a coupling circuit. The coupling circuit includes extending portions extended in strip conductor shapes from the first pair of low noise amplifiers and an extending element extended in a strip conductor shape from an input of the next stage low noise amplifier. The extending portions and the extended element are arranged so as to closely face each other.
