  • Patent number: 8482337
    Abstract: There is provided a high frequency semiconductor switch having an FET designed in consideration of characteristics required for a transmission terminal and a reception terminal. The high frequency semiconductor switch includes a plurality of field effect transistors that each include a source region and a drain region formed on a substrate to be spaced apart by a predetermined distance, a gate formed on the substrate to be disposed at the predetermined distance, a source contact formed on the substrate to be connected with the source region, and a drain contact formed on the substrate to be connected with the drain region. A distance between a source contact and a drain contact of a reception terminal side transistor is longer than a distance between a source contact and a drain contact of a transmission terminal side transistor.

  • Patent number: 8009718
    Abstract: A wireless transmitter and receiver increase a desired/unwanted (D/U) ratio of a correlation output without increasing the number of data in an ultra-wideband direct spread pulse communication system for transmitting and receiving two series of data through different spreading code streams. In the spreading codes used in matched filters of the wireless transmitter, (2*N?2)-th and (2*N)-th values of a cross-correlation signal between first and second spreading codes are greater than 0, (2*N?3)-th and (2*N+1)-th values of an auto-correlation signal of the first spreading code are less than 0, and (2*N?3)-th and (2*N+1)-th values of an auto-correlation signal of the second spreading code are less than 0. The peak value of the cross-correlation signal does not need to be small, and since a value other than the peak value does not become large, the D/U ratio can increase.

  • Patent number: 7912152
    Abstract: A complex coefficient transversal filter using a SAW filter and a complex frequency converter using the complex coefficient transversal filter are provided, in which a first SAW filter receives a real signal as an input signal and generates a real component of a complex signal, and a second SAW filter receives the real signal as an input signal and generates an imaginary component of the complex signal. Accordingly, feed-through waves between the input and output stages can be cancelled, and a phase difference between real and imaginary signals can be maintained at 90° without a phase shift. In addition, when a low-IF frequency converter is implemented using the complex coefficient transversal filter, an image suppression characteristic is improved. When a zero-IF frequency converter is implemented using the complex coefficient transversal filter, an error vector magnitude (EVM) characteristic is improved.

  • Patent number: 7766319
    Abstract: A recorded medium feeding device includes a pickup roller that feeds recorded medium downstream from a setting position by contacting with the recorded medium and rotating and a separating means for separating recorded medium to be fed and subsequent recorded media from the next page onward. The positions of a nip point of the separating means and a place where the pickup roller contacts the recorded medium in the direction orthogonal to the recorded medium feeding direction with respect to a recorded medium of a predetermined size to be fed by the pickup roller are located within a range deviated to one side from the center of the recorded medium of the predetermined size. A path elongating portion that elongates the feed path length of the recorded medium by abutting the recorded medium is apart from the nip point and the place where the pickup roller contacts the recorded medium.
