Abstract: A reception-side apparatus includes: M receive antennas; and a processor configured to execute a first process of acquiring a first signal received from a first transmission-side apparatus from among signals simultaneously received from the N transmission-side apparatuses by receive diversity processing, and acquiring first data by demodulating and decoding the first signal. In the case of N>M, the processor acquires, for each of all patterns of a combination of a first signal, second signals from M?1 transmission-side apparatuses which are to be cancelled by receive diversity processing and third signals from N?M transmission-side apparatuses which are not to be cancelled by the receive diversity processing, a power ratio of power of the first signal relative to total power of the second and third signals based on a predetermined weight and a channel estimate of each signal, and selects a combination with the largest power ratio from among all the patterns.

Abstract: A wireless communication control method suppresses interference using an MMSE weight in an environment of wireless communication where the number of transmission stations transmitting a signal to a receiving station is larger than the number of reception antennas of the receiving station. The receiving station calculates power of an interference signal included in a signal received by the receiving station from the transmission stations the number of which is larger than the number of reception antennas, the interference signal corresponding to a part by which the number of transmission stations exceeds the number of reception antennas. The receiving station calculates the MMSE weight depending on the power of the interference signal, recalculates the power of the interference signal using the MMSE weight, and recalculates the MMSE weight depending on the recalculated power of the interference signal.

Abstract: An electric control device for vehicles capable of updating an old program stored in a storage unit with a new program. A reception unit sequentially receives a plurality of pieces of division data acquired by dividing difference data, which includes a data section based on a difference between the old program and the new program and a command section used for generating the new program by reflecting the data section on the old program, or difference compression data acquired by compressing the difference data for every predetermined data length A restoration process restores the new program based on each division data received by the reception unit and the old program. If at least a part of the command section and the data section is not included in the division data received by the reception unit, the restoration unit suspends the restoration process and waits for reception of next division data.
