  • Patent number: 9667404
    Abstract: A duplexer-less transceiver arrangement (300) is disclosed. The transceiver comprises a receiver (302) arranged for frequency-division duplex communication with a communication network; a transmitter (304) arranged for frequency-division duplex communication with the communication network; an antenna port (306) for connecting to an antenna; a balancing impedance circuit (308) arranged to provide an adaptive impedance arranged to mimic the impedance at the antenna port; and an impedance network differentially connecting the receiver (302), transmitter (304), antenna port (306) and balancing impedance circuit (308), wherein the impedance network includes a cross-connection.

  • Patent number: 6796729
    Abstract: A shutter for a camera capable of opening a shutter sector in a reduced period of time includes a shutter opening formed in a shutter plate, shutter sectors for opening and closing the shutter opening, a drive lever having a drive pin for operating the shutter sectors, and an actuator for driving the drive lever. The drive pin penetrates through-holes formed in the shutter sectors. The through-holes have a size sufficiently large so that the drive lever is driven by the actuator substantially in a no-load state immediately after starting to drive the drive lever so that the shutter sectors are not moved until the drive pin has achieved sufficient acceleration.

  • Patent number: 6724988
    Abstract: A lens-fitted photo film unit is pre-loaded with photo film. A photometric circuit measures object brightness of a photographic object, and determines which of high brightness or low brightness the object brightness is according to comparison with a predetermined reference brightness level. A mode selector in a button shape sets a selected one of an AE mode and a night scene mode. A combination of stationary and movable aperture stop plates changes over a photographic light path in a selected one of small, middle and large aperture stop states. The movable aperture stop plates set the light path in the small aperture stop state when the AE mode is determined and also upon detection of the high brightness. The light path is set in the middle aperture stop state when the AE mode is determined and also upon detection of the low brightness. The light path is set in the large aperture stop state when the night scene mode is determined.

  • Patent number: 6477328
    Abstract: A shutter for a camera comprises sectors for opening and closing a shutter opening by reciprocal pivotal movement, a motor for reciprocally and pivotally moving the sectors by forwardly and reversely rotating a rotor of the motor by forward and reverse electricity conduction to a coil, a memory circuit having stored therein electricity conduction data of the coil corresponding to operational characteristics of the motor and the sectors, and a control circuit for controlling electricity conduction to the coil in accordance with a brightness of an object to be photographed and executing exposure control in accordance with the brightness of the object. The electricity conduction data includes reverse pulses for rotating the rotor in a direction reverse to a direction of opening the sectors for reducing acceleration of the sectors during opening movement thereof, and forward pulses for rotating the rotor in the direction of opening the sectors for continuing the opening movement of the sectors.
