  • Publication number: 20240364368
    Abstract: A radio frequency module that includes a first antenna terminal, a second antenna terminal, a TDD filter, a transmission filter, a filter, and a first switch. The first switch has a first common terminal, a second common terminal, a first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal. The filter is connected to the first terminal, the TDD filter is connected to the second terminal, and the transmission filter is connected to the third terminal. The first switch is capable of switching between a first connection state and a second connection state. The first connection state connects the first common terminal to the first terminal and the first common terminal to the second terminal simultaneously. The second connection state connects the first common terminal to the first terminal, the first common terminal to the second terminal, and the second common terminal to the third terminal simultaneously.

  • Patent number: 12040111
    Abstract: A multilayer coil component includes an element body containing a plurality of metal magnetic particles and a resin existing between the plurality of metal magnetic particles and a coil disposed in the element body and configured to include a plurality of electrically interconnected coil conductors. At least one of the plurality of coil conductors has a spiral shape and has conductor portions adjacent to each other when viewed from a direction along a coil axis of the coil. The conductor portion includes a straight conductor portion extending in a straight line and a connecting conductor portion connecting the straight conductor portion and constituting a corner portion of the coil conductor. The metal magnetic particles between the connecting conductor portions adjacent to each other are lower in density than the metal magnetic particles between the straight conductor portions adjacent to each other.

  • Patent number: 7164421
    Abstract: An image generation system, program, and information storage medium can realistically represent reflection of light on a given object or topographic surface with a reduced computation load. The image generation system includes a section which assigns, to a given object or topographic surface disposed in a virtual three-dimensional space, a virtual object which has at least one of nonuniform brightness or color and is used for representing a light reflection effect on the object or topographic surface; a section which determines a position of the virtual object so that the virtual object moves to follow a virtual camera or player's character, and disposes the virtual object at the determined position; and a section which generates an image of the virtual three-dimensional space viewed from the virtual camera by performing translucent blending processing of the object or topographic surface and the virtual object assigned to the object or topographic surface.

  • Patent number: 6983336
    Abstract: A personal computer system enables simultaneous use of a relative-coordinate-mode input device and an absolute-coordinate-mode input device, thereby allowing correct input of absolute coordinate data, such as for characters. A pad-type first input device and a stick-type second input device are provided for a notebook computer. The first input device outputs both absolute coordinate data and relative coordinate data. The second input device outputs only relative coordinate data. When the absolute coordinate data is output, the relative coordinate data format is converted into the same format as the absolute coordinate data, and ID information for distinguishing the relative coordinate data from the absolute coordinate data is added to part of the relative coordinate data format.

  • Patent number: 6792611
    Abstract: In a server system: an information holding unit holds information on one of a plurality of processing units which should execute processing in response to each of a plurality of types of processing requests; a processing-request receiving unit receives a processing request; a determining unit determines one of the plurality of processing units as a processing unit which should execute the received processing request, based on the information held by the information holding unit; and a calling unit calls the determined one of the plurality of processing units so that the one of the plurality of processing units executes the received processing request.

  • Patent number: 5888928
    Abstract: A process for producing an activated carbon fiber molding is disclosed which comprises spinning an isotropic pitch to thereby obtain pitch fibers, infusibilizing the pitch fibers to thereby obtain infusibilized fibers, heating the infusibilized fibers under a mechanical load to thereby obtain a molding and activating the molding. In this process, the infusibilized fibers and/or infusibilized fibers molding may be heated in an inert atmosphere so as to effect a light carbonization thereof and thereafter subjected to the subsequent step of the process. The pitch-based porous activated carbon fiber molding obtained by this process has a strikingly high bulk density and can sufficiently exhibit the specific properties of the activated carbon fiber, e.g. a large specific surface area, to thereby have a high adsorption efficiency.
