Abstract: A CDMA receiver capable of effective orthogonalization even when the number of received signal vectors to be orthogonalized is very large. Received signals which have been spread by spreading codes are despread by despreading filters (11). Products of received signal levels and cross-correlations between the spreading codes are compared in a preliminary selector (20) of the cross-correlations, and Ns products are selected in order of magnitude, where Ns is a predetermined integer. Ns received signals associated with the selected products have priority to undergo orthogonalization. The number of signals to be orthogonalized by decorrelators (15) can be effectively decreased, and noise enhancement effect can be reduced on the reverse channels. The orthogonalized received signals are recovered through channel estimators (16), phase compensators (17), RAKE combiners (18) and decision blocks (19).

Abstract: A game machine includes a diorama mounting cabinet on the front side containing a diorama object and a semitransparent mirror and a projector mounting cabinet on the rear side containing a cathode ray tube and a screen. An image displayed on the cathode ray tube is projected onto the screen in such a way that it is superimposed on a virtual image of the diorama object, as viewed form a player. The cathode ray tube and screen are integrally mounted in a projector housing which is made movable within the projector mounting cabinet. This makes it possible to vary relative positions of the individual images in depth directions so that depth relationships therebetween can be changed to provide increased reality and flexibility in three-dimensional visual presentation.
