Publication number: 20020105973Abstract: A time slot synchronizer that includes a sampler, which is configured to successively sample a baseband signal. The baseband signal is divided into a number of frames, and each frame is divided into a plurality of symbols. The sampler divides each symbol into a plurality of sample bins and generates a first sample group from a first frame by sampling each symbol in the first frame. The sampler uses a predetermined first and second sample bin for sampling the first frame. Next, the sampler generates a second sample group from a second frame by sampling each symbol in the second frame in a third and fourth sample bin. The third and fourth sample bins, however, are shifted a certain number of sample bins relative to the first and second sample bins, respectively.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2001Publication date: August 8, 2002Applicant: MITSUBISHI WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, INCInventors: Shuzo Kato, Kiyotaka Ogata

Publication number: 20020072346Abstract: A predetermined error vector magnitude reduction circuit exploits scatter patterns that develop at the output of modem wireless communication systems during phase state transition. Digital inphase and quadrature input signals to the circuit, typically from a baseband processor, are compared to known characteristic bit patterns that are pre-stored in a lookup table. Modified data that correspond to the known characteristic bit patterns is supplied to the circuit to replace the data signals themselves. The modified data may be digital data that replaces the digital signals at the input to the inphase and quadrature DACs, or analog data that replaces the analog output of the DACs.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2000Publication date: June 13, 2002Applicant: MITSUBISHI WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, INC.Inventors: Shuzo Kato, Kiyotaka Ogata

Patent number: 6263202Abstract: A communication system is provided whereby desired information can be transmitted in accordance with conditions and the application. The communication system includes a PHS terminal and a provider system that is capable of information communication with this terminal. The PHS terminal has a voice recognition section that receives voice from a microphone and recognises the received voice signal, an input device that selects the output form of the voice signal, a conversion section that converts the recognised voice signal with the selected output form, and a transceiver that transmits the converted voice signal to the provider equipment; the converted voice signal is further transferred from the provider system to another destination wireless communication terminal device. This output form includes for example “dialect”, “intonation/imitated voice of a celebrity etc.” or “modulation”. Conversion filters convert the voice signal in accordance with these.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 1998Date of Patent: July 17, 2001Assignee: Uniden CorporationInventors: Shuzo Kato, Isao Okazaki

Patent number: 6253088Abstract: An integrated cellular and cordless communication system in which cellular calls are forwarded to a landline telephone number associated with a personal base station when a subscriber terminal is determined to be within a predefined vicinity of the personal base station is described herein. Once forwarded to the personal base station via external network elements, such calls may be answered using a cordless device operative to communicate with the personal base station. Alternately, the calls may be transferred to a voice messaging module within the personal base station. When the subscriber terminal is determined to have been removed from within the vicinity of the personal base station, a message from the personal base station to the external network elements results in modification of a call forwarding address such that subsequent calls intended for the subscriber terminal are in fact routed thereto.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 1997Date of Patent: June 26, 2001Assignee: Uniden America CorporationInventors: Richard D. Wenk, Shuzo Kato

Patent number: 6084861Abstract: A radio communication system in which each frame having an imbalanced transmission speed is time-divided to a low speed transmission area and to a high speed transmission area according to a specified ratio in the time domain. An upload signal as a first-directional signal and a download signal as a second-directional signal are allocated to the low speed transmission area and to the high speed transmission area respectively. In a case where a high speed transmission request is issued from a personal station (PS) to a base station (BS), the order of the upload signal and that of the download signal is exchanged in the time domain within one frame, so that the download signal and the upload signal are allocated to the low speed transmission area and the high speed transmission area respectively.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1997Date of Patent: July 4, 2000Assignee: Uniden CorporationInventors: Shuzo Kato, Kazuhiko Seki, Hiep Van Pham

Patent number: 6021137Abstract: A data collection system in which, in communications between each of terminal units and a data collector through a power line, the data collector subjects a polling signal generated by a polling generating circuit to spread spectrum modulation by a spreading section, and superimposes the spread signal on the power line, while each of the terminal units subjects the incoming spread signal thereto superimposed on the power line to de-spread spectrum demodulation and recognizes it, and superimposes the data subjected to spread spectrum modulation on the power line after a certain period of time different from that in other terminal unit has passed. The data collector collects the data obtained by subjecting spread signals successively coming thereinto each by being superimposed on the power line to de-spread spectrum demodulation according to the polling.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 1997Date of Patent: February 1, 2000Assignee: Uniden CorporationInventors: Shuzo Kato, Kazuhiko Seki

Patent number: 5384809Abstract: A serial-parallel converter is arranged to convert an information sequence into a plurality of bit sequences. Two convolutional encoders are provided which respectively receive bit sequences from the serial-parallel converter. Each of the two convolutional encoders outputs first and second bit sequences. First parallel-serial converter receives the first bit sequences and converts them into third bit sequence, while second parallel-serial converter receives the second bit sequences and converts them into fourth bit sequence. The third and fourth bit sequences are used to modulate two carriers with a phase difference of .pi./2 radians.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1993Date of Patent: January 24, 1995Assignees: Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, NEC CorporationInventors: Toshiharu Yagi, Shuzo Kato, Shuji Kubota

Patent number: 5327441Abstract: In a simple decoder which decodes convolutional codes of constraint length K and coding rate n/m, encoded data which is supplied thereto in steps of m bits are distributed, bit by bit, to m shift registers each having x=[(K-1)/(m-n)] series-connected shift stages. Here, [p] means the minimum integer equal to or larger than a real number p. The connection of n modulo-2 addition circuits to all the shift stages of all the shift registers is defined by n decoding generative vectors which define n decoding generative polynomials. The modulo-2 addition circuits perform modulo-2 additions of the outputs of the shift stages connected thereto and output n results of additions as decoded results of n bits. The n decoding generative vectors are selected from decoding generative vectors of N rows which are obtained as an inverse matrix of a square matrix whose elements are N.times.N coefficients which define N=mx convolutional code generating polynomials.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 1992Date of Patent: July 5, 1994Assignee: Nippon Telegraph and Telephone CorporationInventors: Katsuhiko Kawazoe, Shunji Honda, Shuji Kubota, Shuzo Kato
