Abstract: Provided is a technology capable of securing communication quality without providing an additional function such as phase correction. A base station device and a communication terminal device when operating as a transmitting device rotate inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) output, and copy a last portion of the rotated IFFT output to a head of the rotated IFFT output as a cyclic prefix (CP) to thereby generate a transmission signal so that there is no phase rotation at a head of a demodulation reception window set in a receiving device.

Abstract: A narrow-bandwidth terminal device performs radio communication at a bandwidth narrower than a system bandwidth. The narrow-bandwidth terminal device in an idle state camps on a cell, and performs discontinuous reception of a signal transmitted from the cell. The terminal device also determines a reception condition of the signal, for example, whether the signal can be received. When it is determined that the signal cannot be received, the narrow-bandwidth terminal device moves out of a coverage area of the cell while continuing to perform the discontinuous reception. When it is determined that a discontinuous reception timer has been completed, the narrow-bandwidth terminal device continues to perform the discontinuous reception.

Abstract: Provided is a radiation detector that is capable of accurately calculating the time of occurrence of fluorescence. In addition to a configuration that calculates a single signal time, the present invention, in view of the case in which a multiple event occurs, also has a configuration that on the basis of an added signal generated by adding detection signals together, calculates the time of occurrence of fluorescence (added signal time). The radiation detector according to the present invention is configured to output the added signal time as the time of occurrence of fluorescence when the number of detection elements 3a in the fluorescence detection is plural (at the time of a multiple event). In the case of a multiple event, from the viewpoint of strengthening of a signal addition, an added signal time is more accurate than a single signal time.
