  • Publication number: 20220217609
    Abstract: A node performs multi-hop communication. The node includes a relay node determiner that determines a relay node from a plurality of relay node candidates having path information of a path to a master node. The relay node performs relaying. At least when communication frequencies of the relay node candidates are within a predetermined range, the relay node determiner determines the relay node so that a relay node candidate with a higher communication frequency is more likely to be determined as the relay node than a relay node candidate with a lower communication frequency.

  • Patent number: 8063391
    Abstract: The present invention provides a light-transmitting electromagnetic wave-shielding material for use in displays or in-vehicle panels each having a polarizing plate or a retardation plate, wherein the light-transmitting electromagnetic wave-shielding material undergoes no generation of light interference fringes and is satisfactory in visibility even through sunglasses, goggles, glare-proof panels or glare-proof window materials having polarizing capability. By using unstretched light-transmitting organic polymer materials low in molecular orientation or small in molecular orientation unevenness as the base substrate of an electromagnetic wave-shielding layer, the light-transmitting electromagnetic wave-shielding material excellent in light interference fringe prevention capability can be obtained.
