Patent number: 8005003Abstract: A plurality of PLC adapters, such as a master 21 and slaves 22, are connected to a power line 11, which forms a PLC logic network 16. Electric apparatuses 48, such as a television monitor and a video recorder, are connected to the master 21 and the slaves 22 through repeaters 31. The master 21 is a control terminal having the function of QoS controller. The master 21 allocates timeslots for transmitting data over a network, acquires information on the actual data transmission rate detected by a data receiving terminal, and modifies the timeslot allocated to target data on the basis of the acquired information on the actual data transmission rate.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2006Date of Patent: August 23, 2011Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Tomiya Miyazaki, Toru Yasukawa

Publication number: 20100226391Abstract: The PLC 20 adaptor corresponding to a power line communication apparatus has four PLC bridges 30A to 30D, each of which is correspondingly connected to Ethernet communication connectors 26A to 26D, operation mode setting switches 27A to 27D, display units 28A to 28D. Each PLC bridge 30A to 30D includes a PLC modem unit 301, a bridge unit 302, an Ethernet IF unit 303, and a communication control unit 304. The communication control unit 304 obtains data type information on the basis of setting conditions of switches 27A to 27D corresponding to each communication port. Since the time slot required for the communication link corresponding to the communication port of the PLC network can be obtained on the basis of the data type information, the reservation request can be transmitted to the control terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2010Publication date: September 9, 2010Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Tomiya MIYAZAKI, Eiji Kobayashi

Patent number: 7664060Abstract: An information terminal incorporates a network interface and an extension interface, and in the case of outside call, an audio send signal is modulated into an audio signal frequency band, and sent to the exchange through a private telephone line and a subscriber's line by way of the network interface. An audio receive signal sent from the exchange through the subscriber's line and private telephone line is demodulated into an ordinary audio frequency band through the network interface. On the other hand, in the case of extension service, an audio send signal is converted into a packetized digital signal by an extension interface circuit, and is further modulated into a higher frequency band so as not to overlap with the audio signal frequency band, and is transmitted through the private telephone line.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2005Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Tomiya Miyazaki, Yutaka Takeda, Kazuo Yahiro, Takuji Tsujigawa, Naoki Koga, Keisuke Ogata, Akitoshi Aritaka

Patent number: 7499085Abstract: An information terminal is arranged by employing an image input apparatus, a voice input apparatus, an information communication apparatus, and a controller for outputting both image information and voice information to the information communication apparatus. The information terminal is operated in such a manner that while an image entered from a camera is synchronized with voice entered from a microphone, these image and voice data is sent out to a network. When the camera is panned, tilted, or moved, the controller ceases a process operation with respect to voice data in response to this camera move signal. As a result, noise which is generated by moving the camera cannot be mixed into transmission data.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2003Date of Patent: March 3, 2009Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventor: Tomiya Miyazaki

Patent number: 7444391Abstract: A data terminal, a data distributing system, and an Internet telephoning system are provided where desired data such as advertisements can selectively be determined and used for enjoying its relevant services. The data terminal receives a summary of service data from a data provider apparatus over the Internet, and if desired, demands the data provider apparatus to provide the service data over the Internet. The service data from the data provider apparatus may selectively be received in at least one of an audio form, a text form, and a video form at the data terminal. The service data may be advertisement data, commercial product data, and entertainment data such as music, movies, and games. The entertainment data may selectively be presented as at least one of the title, the artist name, the cost, and a trial sample piece of the content.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2004Date of Patent: October 28, 2008Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomiya Miyazaki, Kazuo Yahiro, Toru Imamura, Masafumi Tanaka, Yutaka Takeda, Keisuke Ogata, Takuji Tsujigawa, Akitoshi Aritaka
