  • Patent number: 6947599
    Abstract: There is provided means for setting the RST insertion position comprising a restart line interval setting register 13 automatically setting the insertion position of the RST to the head of the scanning line with the least correlation between two image data for each of the interval L of the arbitrarily set scanning line and a restart interval calculation portion 5. With this structure, a reduction in the compression rate on the basis of the insertion of the RST can be avoided and a high compression rate can be attained.

  • Patent number: 6188883
    Abstract: A communication restriction command code for a mobile station is added to a base station identification code transmitted from the base station. When the mobile station is positioned within an area desired to suppress electromagnetic wave signals, the base station identification code including the communication restriction command code is received to interrupt transmission or reduce transmission power to be smaller than normal transmission power to perform communication control for restricting transmission of the mobile station.

  • Patent number: 6163695
    Abstract: A mobile communication system and mobile communication method are capable of avoiding call-interruption while calling attention of the user who calls to be moved before entering transmission-stop zone. In the mobile communication method, it causes a base station ID to be received while retrieving all frequencies, thus judging whether or not there exists base station ID of "transmission-stop" instruction. When there is the base station ID of the "transmission-stop" instruction, it is judged that a mobile station exists in a transmission control zone, it comes into a state in which transmission is stopped, before coming into reception state. While when there is no the base station ID of the "transmission-stop" instruction, it is judged that a mobile station exists out of a transmission control zone, thus being selected a transmission destination. There is judged whether or not warning information is incorporated in base station ID of the transmission destination base station.
