Abstract: A user apparatus transmits an uplink control signal to a base station apparatus using a single carrier scheme. The user apparatus includes: a unit configured to prepare acknowledgement information indicating positive acknowledgement or negative acknowledgement for a downlink data signal based on a result of demodulation of the downlink data signal; a unit configured to prepare channel state information indicating reception quality of a downlink reference signal; a unit configured to channel-code multiplexed control information in which the acknowledgement information and the channel state information are multiplexed to prepare the uplink control signal; and a unit configured to transmit the uplink control signal using dedicated resources different from resources for an uplink data signal.

Abstract: A resin composition including the following components (A) to (C): (A) polyarylene sulfide resin: 20 wt %<component (A)?60 wt %; (B) hexagonal boron nitride: 8 wt %?component (B)?55 wt %; and (C) flat glass fiber: 15 wt % component?(C)?55 wt % wherein the amount ratio of each component is a weight percentage relative to the total amount of the components (A) to (C).

Abstract: The present invention provides a flame-retardant resin composition including a matrix resin and at least granular flame-retardant fine particles having a volume average particle diameter in said range of about 1 to about 500 nm. The invention also provides a flame-retardant resin composition including a matrix resin; at least flame-retardant fine particles having a volume average particle diameter in said range of about 1 to about 500 nm and comprising inorganic fine particles of a hydrated metal compound or an inorganic hydrate.

Abstract: Stainless steel is improved in anti-microbial property by the addition of Cu in an amount of 0.4-5.0 wt. % and the precipitation of Cu-rich phase at the ratio of 0.2 vol. % or more. The Cu-rich phase is precipitated as minute particles uniformly dispersed in the matrix not only at the surface layer but also at the interior by heat treatment such as annealing or aging at 500.degree.-900.degree.. Since the anti-microbial property is derived from the material itself, the underlying stainless steel does not lose the excellent anti-microbial property even after it is polished or mechanically worked. Due to the anti-microbial property, the stainless steel is useful as material in various fields requiring sanitary environments, for example, kitchen goods, electric home appliances, devices or tools at hospitals, parts or interiors for building and grips or poles for electric trains or buses.
