Abstract: In an AFC ((Automatic Frequency Control) circuit, a frequency offset estimating circuit (11) produces a lock signal (102) if a calculated frequency error becomes smaller than a predetermined value. Then, a CPU (13) produces a control signal (104) to stop the operation of the frequency offset estimating circuit (11). A timing generating circuit (14) calculates a frequency error with reference to a frame timing correction amount from a delay profile/search circuit (12), and produces an unlock signal (103) if the frequency error becomes equal to or greater than the predetermined value. Then, the CPU (13) produces the control signal (104) to start the operation of the frequency offset estimating circuit (11). Thus, the frequency offset estimating circuit (11) stops its operation while the AFC operation is in the locked state.

Abstract: A mail server and mail terminals are connected through a radio communication network. The mail server makes viral infection decision of if e-mails are infected with computer virus without burdening the mail terminals having poor processing power. The mail terminals are constructed to serve as small-sized mail terminals. When an e-mail arrives at the mail server through the Internet, the mail server decides if the e-mail is infected with virus. The result of the viral infection decision is added as the whole or a part of inspection information within the header of the e-mail. The corresponding mail terminal can detect presence or absence of viral infection on the basis of the inspection information. When the e-mail is infected with virus, the mail terminal can inform a user of the contaminated e-mail by making tone of a buzzer or vibrator different from a normal e-mail.

Abstract: The present invention aims to cool high tension electrical equipment efficiently with a small, lightweight device. The high tension electrical equipment cooling structure is provided for cooling batteries which supply electricity to the operating motor via an inverter, and the inverter using cooling air, and comprises an equipment box for guiding cooling air introduced from a cooling air inlet port into a cooling air outlet port, and a fan for introducing cooling air from the cooling air inlet port. A shutter that consists of an elastic material is disposed inside the intake duct. The shutter closes off the cooling air flow path, and when negative pressure is generated downstream of the shutter due to the operation of the fan, the shutter undergoes elastic deformation, and as a result, the cooling air flow path is opened.

Abstract: An air inlet is provided at the bottom of a vehicle to open downwardly. The air inlet is connected by a first tube to an air cooler for a PDU and a down converter. A fan for inputting the flow of air and turning its direction 90 degrees is connected at the downstream of the air cooler. The fan is further connected by a second tube to an exhaust outlet. The air inlet is located above a fuel tank thus to prevent any object jumping up from the road surface from straightforwardly entering the air inlet while the vehicle is running. The exhaust outlet is located above a silencer and can thus be prevented from being frozen in the winter. Using the above arrangement, the present invention embodies an air intaking and exhausting apparatus in an air cooling system for air cooling the PDU and the down converter at higher efficiency without the help of the air cooler mounted in the interior of the vehicle.

Abstract: A receiver for the CDMA system, in order to reduce a power consumption during a suspension period of intermittent receiving operation, monitors a suspension period t1 by means of a low-power timer 51 so that a VC-TCXO 1, a reference signal group generation unit 2 and a receiving unit 3 are turned off and a modem unit 4 is set to a sleep state. Upon resumption of receiving operation, a high-accuracy timer 44 is supplied with a start (d) to require counting of time t3 and a part of a received signal is stored. A PN code phase of stored data is calculated in a PN code phase calculator 46 during a period t3 to obtain an indication value i for a phase deviation. State vectors for short code and long code and further a reception time t4 are calculated on the basis of the indication value i to be set.
