The electronic control unit is configured to acquire vehicle information in accordance with a third sampling pattern that is a combination of a first sampling pattern and a second sampling pattern. The vehicle information is transferred within an in-vehicle network installed in the vehicle. The first sampling pattern is a sampling pattern in which the vehicle information is sampled at a change point at which a predetermined change has occurred. The second sampling pattern is a sampling pattern in which the vehicle information is sampled at intervals of a predetermined period.

The method particularly includes a step of, in a one optical packet switch, monitoring congestion conditions at its output ports, a step of, in the one optical packet switch, transferring packets to be stored in a one output port that is judged in the monitoring step as in congestion, to other output port that is judged in the monitoring step as not in congestion, a step of, from the one optical packet switch, sending the packets as reflection packets via the other output port to an other optical packet switch corresponding to the other output port, and a step of, from the other optical packet switch, returning the reflection packets to the one optical packet switch.

Abstract: A wireless transmitter transmits data with at least two different levels of required quality on the same wireless channel. The transmitter has a multiplexer that multiplexes the data into frames, each frame containing data with at least two different levels of required quality, and a power controller that controls the transmitting power of each type of data separately within each frame, thereby avoiding the use of excess transmitting power.

Abstract: A to-be-sent signal (20) is comprised of a header (21) and convolution encoded data (22). An error correcting code (23) has a capability to correct a bit error or burst error contained in an objective data (24) placed apart from the header (21) in said convolution encoded data (22). Because an error arises easily in data placed apart from a header compared with that positioned near said header generally, said error correcting code (23) is added to data placed apart from said header and the addition of said error correcting code is omitted in data placed near to said header, thereby reducing whole information contents and transmission power.

Abstract: A receiver having a simple configuration for receiving and decoding digital broadcasts and outputting decoded data to an external device and moreover, decoding externally-input data and outputting decoded data to an external device. There are included a received-data demodulating device for receiving and demodulating digital broadcasts and generating a first clock in accordance with the digital broadcast and a clock generating device for generating a third clock by frequency-dividing a predetermined second clock. The first clock is used when the digital broadcast is received and decoded and the third clock is used when externally-inputted data is decoded.

Abstract: There has been such a drawback that it is difficult to accurately estimate the location of mobile station MS in a mobile communication system. To solve the problem, according to the mobile communication system of the present invention, a mobile station and several base station cooperate for estimation. First the base stations BS in which the mobile station is laid and other base stations adjacent thereto each measure the receipt levels of the radio wave radiated by the mobile station to notify the position manage center of the receipt levels. Second the position manage center instructs the mobile station to control the radio wave pursuant to the receipt levels in such a fashion the receipt levels are stabilized; finally. Third each base station measure the distance between the base station and the mobile station based upon the propagation time of the radio wave to inform the position manage center of the distance.
