  • Publication number: 20240114539
    Abstract: A base station is disclosed, which is capable of appropriately configuring the timings of data assignment, data transmission and reception, and feedback for a case where the DL and UL sTTI lengths are different from each other. In this base station (100), a transmission section (106) transmits a downlink signal using a first short transmission time interval (sTTI) shortened in length than a TTI and used for downlink; and a reception section (107) receives an uplink signal using a second sTTI shortened in length than the TTI and used for uplink. When the first sTTI is shorter in length than the second sTTI, the reception section (107) receives the uplink signal in the second sTTI positioned after a predetermined interval from the transmission timing of the downlink signal, the predetermined interval being configured based on the length of the first sTTI.

  • Patent number: 11917673
    Abstract: A reception processor receives the cell detection reference signals, each of the cell detection reference signals being transmitted from corresponding one of a plurality of cells. An RRM report generator generates measurement information indicating a measurement result of reception quality measured using the cell detection reference signal. A transmission processor transmits the measurement information. The cell detection reference signals are mapped to any one of a plurality of candidate resources, which is a part of a plurality of resources set for other reference signals in a subframe to which the cell detection reference signals are mapped.

  • Patent number: 11665999
    Abstract: A harvester capable of autonomous travel in a field includes: a harvesting unit that harvests a crop from the field; a conveyance device that conveys, toward the rear of a harvester body, a whole culm of the harvested crop harvested by the harvesting unit; a detection sensor that detects a drive speed of the conveyance device; and a clog determining unit that determines a clog of the harvested crop in the conveyance device on the basis of the drive speed. The clog determining unit outputs a vehicle stop command that stops the harvester body when the drive speed becomes lower than a pre-set first threshold during the autonomous travel.

  • Patent number: 6005468
    Abstract: An amorphous transformer prevents deformation or deflection caused by the repulsion force between an outer coil and an inner coil and prevents formation of a one-turn-current through a reinforcement member and a coil frame. The amorphous transformer includes amorphous cores, an outer coil and an inner coil, a coil frame and a reinforcement member. The reinforcement member prevents the amorphous core from being deformed inward by the electromagnetic force of the coil, and the frame member and the reinforcement member prevents formation of an electrical closed-loop. Accordingly, the amorphous transformer core is protected from being damaged.
