  • Publication number: 20220271433
    Abstract: An antenna module includes: a radiating element and a filter device including a plurality of resonators. The plurality of resonators include a first resonator and a second resonator, the second resonator being disposed at a final stage. The first resonator and the second resonator are each electrically coupled to the radiating element. A degree of a coupling of the resonator and the radiating element is weaker than a degree of a coupling of the resonator and the radiating element.

  • Patent number: 9847030
    Abstract: Technologies are generally described for an automated external defibrillator (AED) dispatch system. In various examples, the AED dispatch system may include a receiver, a vehicle determination unit, and a transmitter. The receiver may be configured to receive, from a first device, a request message that includes first location information that indicates a location of the first device, and also receive, from one or more of second devices, one or more report messages, each of which includes second location information that indicates a location of the corresponding one of the second devices. The vehicle determination unit may be configured to select a vehicle to be dispatched based at least in part on the first location information and the respective second location information. The transmitter may be configured to transmit an instruction message to the second device associated with the selected vehicle to be dispatched.

  • Patent number: 9740840
    Abstract: Techniques are generally described for user authentication. Example techniques may include providing a data set including audio data and image data, wherein the audio data includes voice recordings of multiple people, wherein the image data includes at least a facial image of at least one of the multiple people, receiving a response to the data set from a user device, and determining whether the received response corresponds to at least a part of content of the voice recording of the one of the multiple people whose facial image is included in the image data.

  • Publication number: 20170111617
    Abstract: Technologies are generally described for identification of recorded image data. In various examples, a mobile device may include a receiver, a memory and a processor. The receiver may be configured to receive a signal transmission from a surveillance apparatus located proximate to the mobile device, and the signal transmission from the surveillance apparatus includes a camera ID. The processor may be configured to coordinate operation of the receiver and the memory to: store the camera ID received from the receiver in association with a timestamp in the memory; receive a request to identify at least one camera ID associated with a user specified criteria; and identify one or more camera IDs that substantially match the user specified criteria.

  • Patent number: 7956815
    Abstract: A low-profile antenna structure can control its directivity with great flexibility. Excited elements 11 and 12 are symmetrically arranged on a y-axis, whereas parasitic elements 13 and 14 are symmetrically arranged on an x-axis, with respect to an origin. The excited elements, as well as the parasitic elements, each have an inverted-F antenna structure and are a distance of ?/4 apart from each other. Feed circuits 21 and 22 are respectively connected to and feed signals to the excited elements 11 and 12, such that phases of the signals to be fed are different from each other by a desired degree. Variable reactors 23 and 24 (i) are respectively connected to the parasitic elements 13 and 14, and (ii) in accordance with reactance values thereof, can each change an electrical length of the corresponding one of the parasitic elements.

  • Patent number: 7538640
    Abstract: A waveguide and an attenuation pole waveguide bandpass filter with a simple structure without any additional structure such as a negative cross coupling between resonators. The attenuation pole waveguide bandpass filter arranged at right angle to the longitudinal direction (radio wave propagation direction) is composed only of conductors. The conductor comprises depressions each opening outwardly and having a non-conducting region which continues from the inside of the opening section to the outside, and a window in the conductor section between these opposed depressions. In an alternative embodiment, such conductor shall be covered by a dielectric such as a resin.
