  • Publication number: 20240121637
    Abstract: A wireless communication monitoring system for monitoring a hardware failure of a wireless communication unit of a wireless communication device using a remote monitoring control device, in which the wireless communication device transmits or receives a predetermined radio signal to or from a monitoring device added or attached to the host device to perform a life and death check for checking an operation, and the remote monitoring control device detects a hardware failure of the wireless communication unit of the wireless communication device on the basis of a result of the life and death check received from the wireless communication device. This makes it possible to detect a failure that cannot be detected from information obtained from a device state request to a wireless communication device of the related art.

  • Publication number: 20240097344
    Abstract: A reflector antenna includes: a radiator that radiates a radio wave; a main reflector that reflects the radio wave radiated from the radiator in a communication direction; an expansion panel that is attached to at least a part of the main reflector to increase an area of the main reflector; and a first adjustment unit that changes a position of the radiator, or a second adjustment unit that replaces the radiator with a radiator having a different radiation angle. This configuration makes it possible to implement a large-aperture antenna having excellent transportability and operability without preparing another antenna having a large aperture and replacing a standard antenna.

  • Patent number: 8160821
    Abstract: A method of supporting a diagnosis of an effect of a treatment by using anthracycline anticancer drugs is disclosed. The method provides a new value for judging an effect, a judgment score, which is calculated based on expression levels and activity values of two cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs). The effect of the treatment by using anthracycline anticancer drugs is judged by comparing the judgment score with a predetermined threshold level.
