Abstract: A phase of a sampling clock provided from clock generating circuit 107 is switched periodically and alternately with a phase difference of 180 degrees, and during a period of each phase, timing estimating circuit 105 estimates a symbol timing. High-accuracy timing estimating circuit 109 selects an estimated result with higher reliability among symbol timing estimated results obtained in respective periods, thereby enabling estimation of the symbol timing with time resolution twice a sampling period. It is possible to decrease an operation frequency in an A/D conversion circuit even in a system requiring timing synchronization accuracy with high accuracy.

Abstract: Convolver 104 calculates convolution integration between symbol number s given by calculation length determination section 118 of a series of known signals sequentially output from known signal storage section 103 and a series of signals corresponding to s symbols selected at symbol intervals from the reception signal series stored in shift register 102 and difference calculation section 105 calculates difference vectors corresponding to 1 symbol of the signal series subjected to convolution integration. Addition section 106 sequentially adds up the calculated difference vectors, calculates addition difference vectors in the same way by shifting the reception signal series 1 sample at a time, memory 107 stores the time of shifting in association with the addition difference vectors and detection section 108 detects parts that satisfy a specific condition from the vectors stored in memory 107.

Abstract: A two-surface constrainable tool has two retaining surfaces by which the two-surface constrainable tool retains itself on a spindle (10) of a machine tool. The two-surface constrainable tool comprises: a bottom grip taper shank (14) having a taper part (15) having a first retaining surface and capable of being closely fitted in a taper bore (12) formed in the spindle (10), and a flange (16) provided in one end surface (16a) thereof facing the end surface (10a) of the spindle (10) with a groove (18); and a collar (20) to be interposed between the end surface (16a) of the flange (16) and the end surface (10a) of the spindle (10), consisting of two symmetrical segments (20a, 20b) having ridges (22a, 22b) to be fitted in the groove (18) of the flange (16), and a second retaining surface to be brought into close contact with the end surface (10a) of the spindle (10). The bottom grip taper shank (14) retains itself by the first and the second retaining surface on the spindle (10).

Abstract: An end mill comprises an arbor, a tool body attached to an end of the arbor, and throw-away chips detachably attached to an end face of the tool body. Each throw-away chip has a cutting edge having a peripheral circular cutting edge section for shaping, and an end straight cutting edge section for end milling.

Abstract: A cellular cordless telephone set includes an antenna being common to cellular telephone and cordless telephone, and a radio transceiver connected to the antenna and being common to cellular telephone and cordless telephone. The radio transceiver is changeable between a cellular telephone mode of operation and a cordless telephone mode of operation. The radio transceiver receives an incoming cellular telephone radio signal from the antenna and feeds a transmission cellular telephone radio signal to the antenna during the cellular telephone mode of operation. The radio transceiver receives an incoming cordless telephone radio signal from the antenna and feeds a transmission cordless telephone radio signal to the antenna during the cordless telephone mode of operation. The incoming cellular telephone radio signal and the transmission cellular telephone radio signal are in a first predetermined frequency band.
