Publication number: 20240094163Abstract: A magnetic property acquisition unit detects an induced voltage caused by vibration of a measurement sample magnetized by an excitation electromagnet and acquires a magnetic property that indicates a relationship between a magnetic flux density and an external magnetic field. The magnetic flux density is a sum of magnetization of the measurement sample and the external magnetic field. When acquiring the magnetic property of the measurement sample to which pressure is being applied, a control device sets a first magnetic field value as a sweep start value, and performs sweeping with a magnetic field equal to or less than the first magnetic field value. The first magnetic field value is smaller than a second magnetic field value that is acquired before the pressure is applied to the measurement sample, and corresponds to a saturation magnetic flux density of the measurement sample to which the pressure is not being applied.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2021Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventor: Norihisa MATSUMOTO

Patent number: 8107471Abstract: Disclosed herewith is a communication system, which can solve the following conventional problem that if packets exchanged between a terminal and an HA are encapsulated with use of the mobile IPv6 protocol, the PDSN cannot identify any IP flows in the mobile IPv6 tunnel. Consequently, there is no QoS usable appropriately to the services in the EV-D0 RAN. To solve such a problem, the PCRF notifies the HA of the filter information used to specify each IP flow and the flow label assigned to each IP flow. The HA then sets the flow label in the outer IPv6 header of the packet matching with the filter information and transfers the packet to the object unit. The PDSN then refers to the flow label set in the outer IPv6 header to identify the object IP flow in the mobile IPv6 tunnel. Consequently, a proper QoS can be usable for the services respectively in the EV-D0 RAN.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2008Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Hitomi Nakamura, Norihisa Matsumoto, Takehiro Morishige, Naruhito Nakahara

Patent number: 8051322Abstract: In a communication system using an IP tunnel for communication between application processing apparatuses (hereinafter, processing apparatuses), an application can be moved to an arbitrary processing apparatus, update of tunnel tables included in the respective processing apparatuses is quickly performed, and a buffer for waiting for packets during the table update is made small. A redundancy managing apparatus manages a correspondence between a virtual IP address (VIP) of an application in a communication system and an IP address (RIP) of an processing apparatus to execute the application. The processing apparatus notifies the VIP of the communication partner application of the application to the redundancy managing apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2009Date of Patent: November 1, 2011Assignee: Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc.Inventors: Norihisa Matsumoto, Nodoka Mimura, Hidetoshi Nishiyama, Makoto Watanabe

Publication number: 20110222541Abstract: Edge nodes form point-to-point communication paths with one another. Multiple communication paths set at one port of an edge node and/or a relay node are regarded as a group. Identification information of the port and identification information of a group that outputs a frame inputted into the port are previously stored as associated with each other. If the destination address of a frame inputted into the port is unknown, an outgoing interface search unit identifies at least one group corresponding to the port. The frame is outputted from a port corresponding to the identified group.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2010Publication date: September 15, 2011Applicant: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Takumi OISHI, Norihisa Matsumoto, Kiyotaka Takahashi, Hideki Endo

Patent number: 7991419Abstract: When half-duplex many-to-many communication is performed among a plurality of mobile stations having different codecs in a single group, transcoding is performed with a small number of codec circuits. A transcoder manages an SSRC of a received RTP packet, detaches voice information from a jitter buffer, which is identical to a latest SSRC, and inputs the detached voice information to a codec circuit. As the latest SSRC is switched, a voice sending station subject to transcode is switched, and mobile stations using the same codec share the codec circuit. Therefore, in a half-duplex many-to-many communication (group communication) system, called a professional mobile radio system, push-talk, or press-talk, it is not necessary to switch the transcoder until a radio station which takes a talk burst is changed during a single call (call session).Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2008Date of Patent: August 2, 2011Assignee: Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc.Inventors: Norihisa Matsumoto, Nodoka Mimura

Patent number: 7764680Abstract: When congestion occurs in a RAN in a cell phone VoIP service, calls using the congested device are detected to permit generation of a restriction in call by call units. The congested device notifies call connection data passing through it to a PDSN, the PDSN finds the IP address of the terminal using the target connection, and notifies a CSCF as a restriction target terminal. The CSCF, in call connection processing, determines whether the calling/called sending/receiving user is the restriction target, and if so, determines whether or not the call should be connected with priority from subscriber data.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2007Date of Patent: July 27, 2010Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Norihisa Matsumoto, Koji Watanabe, Naruhito Nakahara
