  • Patent number: 11962329
    Abstract: The technology relates to an encoding device, an encoding method, a decoding device, a decoding method, and a program enabling encoding with favorable transmission efficiency with a controlled running disparity. A calculation section divides inputted data into N or M bits to calculate a first running disparity of an N or M bit data string. A determination section determines whether the data string is inverted based on the first running disparity calculated by the calculation section and a second running disparity calculated therebefore. An addition section inverts or non-inverts the data string based on a determination result by the determination section to add a flag indicating the determination result for outputting. The determination section determines not to perform inversion when the data string is a control code. The addition section adds the flag assigned to the control code. The technology is applicable to a device communicating in an SLVS-EC specification.

  • Publication number: 20240111030
    Abstract: To improve resolution while suppressing the number of light emitting elements arranged in an optical module. The optical module is provided with an optical element that converts a light beam emitted from the light emitting element into a substantially parallel light beam or a light beam having a predetermined angular width, and a diffraction element that diffracts the light beam to separate into a plurality of light beams. The diffraction element generates diffracted lights in n direction, and an angle ?x formed between one diffraction direction and a side in a direction in which the light emitting element is arranged satisfies tan?1 (b/3a). A diffraction angle ?x of the diffracted light satisfies m·sgrt((3?a){circumflex over (?)}2+?b{circumflex over (?)}2)/(2(2n+1)). Note that, ?a and ?b are angular differences of two light beams caused by inter-light emission distances a and b. Furthermore, n is a natural number, and m is a natural number excluding an integral multiple of 2n+1.

  • Patent number: 10866875
    Abstract: A storage apparatus includes a controller unit and output unit. The controller receives cyclic information that is cycled within a specific group of storage apparatuses with properties close to a relevant storage apparatus. The cyclic information includes performance information of each storage apparatus in the specific group and evaluation information indicative of an evaluation result of the performance information of each storage apparatus. The controller acquires the performance information including the evaluation results, combines it with the cyclic information, and transmits the cyclic information to a storage apparatus which is a next cycling destination. A similarity level may be calculated based on configuration information and a predetermined weight. A specific group may be formed by checking whether storage apparatuses are capable of communicating with each other, so a cyclic path can be formed. The output unit may transmit performance information as information to be displayed on a user terminal.
