Abstract: In a signal detection apparatus, power detection section 101 detects power of an inputted received signal, and upon detection of power exceeding a power detection threshold, outputs a trigger to storage section 102. Storage section 102 stores a first received signal upon reception of the trigger and outputs the stored first received signal to multiplier 103 and newly stores a second received signal upon receipt of the next trigger. Multiplier 103 multiplies the second received signal by the first received signal, integrator 104 integrates the multiplication result from multiplier 103 during a predetermined duration to obtain a correlation value of the second and first received signals, and absolute value calculation section 105 calculates an absolute value of the correlation value from integrator 104. Determination section 106 determines the presence/absence of a detection-target signal based on the absolute value of the correlation value from absolute value calculation section 105.

Abstract: A master device transmits a beacon signal including information related to a proximity wireless communication area in a predetermined cycle by using a transmission power which allows the beacon signal to reach beyond the proximity wireless communication area. When a slave device receives the beacon signal from the master device, the slave device estimates a distance to the master device in accordance with the information of the beacon signal. When a wireless communication terminal is located within the proximity wireless communication area, the slave device is connected to the master device by using a proximity wireless communication.

Abstract: The communication terminal includes a receiving unit and a transmission unit, which serve as a communication unit for signal exchange; and a beacon processing unit as a first detection unit that detects, for each channel, the number of the other communication terminals performing wireless communication by receiving a terminal number notification signal from a control device. Additionally, a data processing unit is provided as a second detection unit that counts, for each channel, the number of the other communication terminals found by receiving acknowledgement signals transmitted from the other communication terminals; and a channel control unit selects a frequency channel having a least difference between the number detected by the beacon processing unit and the number counted by the data processing unit, and causes the receiving unit and the transmission unit to perform the signal exchange via the selected frequency channel.

Abstract: In this signal detection device (100), a delaying unit (101) delays a first distributed signal or a second distributed signal distributed from a received signal for a period of time of T1 to form a first multiplication signal, and delays the one for a period of time of T2 (T2>T1) to form a second multiplication signal. An integrator (104) calculates a first correlation value by integrating the result of multiplying the first distributed signal and the first multiplication signal. An integrator (105) calculates a second correlation value by integrating the result of multiplying the second distributed signal and the second multiplication signal. An evaluation unit (108) evaluates whether the signal to be detected, which is a periodic signal with a period of T1 or a periodic signal with a period of T2, exists or not, on the basis of the first correlation value and the second correlation value.

Abstract: When communicating with a second wireless station, a first wireless station judges, based on link-related information received from the second wireless station and link-related information extracted from a signal transmitted by a fourth wireless station, whether a transmission link from the third wireless station to the fourth wireless station and a transmission link from the first wireless station to the second wireless station can be concurrently established without interference with each other. If judging affirmatively, the first wireless station transmits a signal to the second wireless station in synchronization with a signal transmitted by the third wireless station to the fourth wireless station.

Abstract: Provided is a communication method for improving the communication quality of multicast transmission. A grouping table storage section stores a grouping table in which Ack return order positions indicating priority orders of the reception terminals which each return an Ack, and addresses of the reception terminals are set. An Ack return order position notification frame creation section notifies each reception terminal of a corresponding Ack return order position based on the grouping table. An Ack return permission information determination section refers to the grouping table, determines the number of reception terminal that are to be permitted to return an Ack, and creates Ack return permission information in which information about the reception terminals that are to be permitted to return an Ack is set, based on the determined number of reception terminals. A multicast creation section creates a multicast containing the Ack return permission information and transmission data.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a transmission device that, in a communication system using multilevel modulation with 2^n levels (n being an integer greater than or equal to two), limits the run length to a predetermined value or less and guarantees DC balance. The transmission device, which transmits data to which 2^n amplitude modulation has been applied, separates data for transmission into n data sequences; encodes one of the n data sequences to guarantee run length, thereby generating a converted data sequence; generates an intermediate data sequence by either inverting or not inverting a specific data sequence so that, based on candidate data, the next output voltage guarantees DC balance; and applies 2^n amplitude modulation to n-bit symbols each of which has a bit in the intermediate data sequence as a most significant bit and bits in the remaining data sequences, excluding the specific data sequence, as subsequent bits.
