  • Publication number: 20240102957
    Abstract: In an electrochemical gas sensor (10), a first sensing element (21) is stored in a first storage portion (31). A moisture permeable film (24) is disposed in a first introduction inlet (31A) of the first storage portion (31). The moisture permeable film (24) substantially prevents a to-be-detected gas from permeating therethrough. A second sensing element (22) is disposed in a space into which water vapor and the to-be-detected gas contained in a target gas flow. In such a configuration, the electrochemical gas sensor (10) is capable of detecting a to-be-detected gas having a concentration of 0 or more and 1 ppm or less.

  • Publication number: 20120014309
    Abstract: A WMMR (301) is used as a wireless relay node in a wireless network connected to a backbone network including a multicast data packet distribution source. A route control unit (N03) establishes a multicast data packet transfer route based on unicast routes by making reference to an SWGT (20) based on received route control information and adding an entry to a multicast routing table (MRT) (10). A transfer control unit (N04) makes reference to the MRT (10) and makes a transfer to a directly connected transfer destination along the established multicast data packet transfer route by unicasting capable arrival confirmation and retransmission control as a transmission scheme in the data link layer.
