  • Patent number: 11277214
    Abstract: A synthetic reception strength value in a case of synthesizing indirect waves of radio waves generated due to an obstruction is calculated for each piece of receive antenna coordinate information in consideration of a phase of each indirect wave. Relation information indicating relation between input information and teaching information is generated. The input information is the synthetic reception strength value for each piece of the receive antenna coordinate information corresponding to transmit antenna coordinate information. The teaching information is information indicating a reception state of the radio waves being calculated using a method of actually measuring the radio waves output by the transmit antenna at a position of a receive antenna or a method other than the method of the actual measurement.

  • Publication number: 20100040175
    Abstract: It is possible to realize an ideal software reception device which can demodulate a higher-order modulation signal without losing vector information even if a carrier wave is sampled with a frequency lower than the carrier wave. A sampling frequency is set so that a phase relationship of the sampling point of an alias signal generated by sampling of a carrier with a sampling frequency lower than the carrier wave coincides with a phase relationship of the sampling point of the carrier wave. That is, the sampling frequency is set so that the carrier wave frequency “fc” and the sampling frequency “fs” satisfy the relationship fs=4fc/(4k+1), wherein k is a positive integer. Thus, it is possible to perform undersampling of the carrier wave while holding the vector information and demodulate a higher-order modulation such as QPSK and 64 QAM.
