Abstract: A wireless communication system according to the invention is to perform communication with a terminal station at a radio frequency higher than a millimeter waveband. The wireless communication system includes, as transmission devices to the terminal station, a center station device which forms a baseband signal to the terminal station and a plurality of access point devices which receive delivered signals from the center station device and emit radio waves to the terminal station.  Cover areas of the access point devices partially overlap to constitute a service area to the terminal station by all the cover areas.     In this manner, a frequency higher than a millimeter wave band is applied to wireless communication to the terminal station to make it possible to widen the service area.     When each of the access point devices has a configuration which simultaneously sends a transmission signal main body and a local oscillation signal of a radio frequency and the terminal station has a configuration which perform asquare-law detection to a synthesized signal of the received transmission signal main body and the local oscillation signal, the terminal station can obtain a demodulated signal which is free from a frequency offset and a phase fluctuation of the local oscillation signal and which is reduced in doppler frequency.

Granted: 2012-10-30
Abstract: An apparatus and method evaluate the power of a muscle or a muscle group by initializing a resistance element (82L, 82R) to a first resistance level. An engagement assembly (40L, 40R) coupled to the resistance element (82L, 82R) is moved at a highest achievable velocity through an exercise stroke while a representative velocity at which the engagement assembly (40L, 40R) is moved through the exercise stroke is measured. At the completion of the exercise stroke, the resistance level of the resistance element (82L, 82R) is increased and the exercise stroke is repeated. The resistance level is increased until the resistance level is sufficient to preclude moving the engagement assembly (40L, 40R) through a complete exercise stroke. The power for each exercise stroke, the maximum power and the velocity and resistance at which the maximum power is produced are calculated based on the resistance level for each exercise stroke and the representative velocity for each exercise stroke.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un processus de fabrication de plaque multiple ou unique à effet de champ grille constitué d'étapes consécutive de dépôt/croissance de matériau diélectrique, de gravures de matériau diélectrique et d'évaporation de métal sur la surface de transistors à effet de champ. Ce processus de fabrication permet une commande étroite du fonctionnement de plaques à effet champ car le dépôt/la croissance du matériau diélectrique est habituellement un processus commandable par puits. Par ailleurs, le matériau diélectrique déposé sur la surface du dispositif n'a pas besoin d'être retiré des régions intrinsèques de dispositif : ce qui permet la réalisation de dispositif de plaque à effet de champ sans recours à des gravures à sec/humide de matériau diélectrique à dégradation faible. L'utilisation de plaques à effet de champ grille multiples réduit aussi la résistance de grille par des connexions multiples, ce qui améliore les résultats de dispositif grille de large périphérie et/ou sous micronique.
