Patent number: 8876167Abstract: This invention relates to an anti-counterfeit printed matter, including securities such as banknotes, stock certificates, and bonds, various kinds of certificates, and important documents, which requires anti-counterfeit or anti-copy. [Solving Means] A visible image is formed by a first object group arrayed in a first direction at a predetermined pitch and a second object group arranged in the non-imaging area of the first object group. The second object group forms the negative and positive images of a first invisible image by arbitrarily arranging two kinds of objects in pairs in the on/off relationship. Addition, in the anti-counterfeit printed matter, the first object group includes object portions that are formed in at least two height levels from the surface of the printed matter so as to have a predetermined difference in height, thereby forming a second invisible image.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2009Date of Patent: November 4, 2014Assignee: National Printing Bureau, Incorporated Administrative AgencyInventors: Masato Kiuchi, Toshihiro Kimura, Yoshinobu Matsumoto, Kenichiro Yoneyama

Patent number: 8842573Abstract: Provided is a communication device for measuring a usable bandwidth without delay in transmission of primary data. The relay device according to an embodiment of the present invention, when measuring a usable bandwidth in communication with another relay device, processes a user packet including a user data to be transmitted to the other relay device so as to be changed into a specific packet size while the user data is maintained as it is, and utilizes it as a measurement packet. Accordingly, even though it is a measurement packet for performing measurement of a bandwidth, since it includes user data, it may be treated in the same manner as a user packet thereby enabling an efficient use of a communication network in communication. Also, even though UDP is used, since a usable bandwidth can be measured, it is possible to measure a bandwidth even though streaming data is distributed while preventing any influences on the distribution.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2010Date of Patent: September 23, 2014Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Takahiro Asano, Toshihiro Kimura, Nobuhiko Uemura, Akiyoshi Atsumi

Patent number: 7684395Abstract: Encrypted communications are performed between private networks over a wide-area network (e.g., the Internet) by way of routers, each of which includes a management table for storing entries including identifiers and control parameters. Uplink control connections are established between routers so as to mutually communicate and update stored contents of management tables therebetween. Updated stored contents of management tables are subjected to publication to other routers. Alternatively, stored contents of management tables are periodically subjected to publication to other routers. Thus, it is possible for operations managers to reduce manual operations for setting up control parameters in management tables of routers.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2006Date of Patent: March 23, 2010Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Toshihiro Kimura, Shinichi Suzuki
