Abstract: In a magnetic recording medium to detect tracking error signals
optically where an optical head and a magnetic head scan
different tracks, two signals having phases different by π /2 are
generated and added or subtracted. By changing the amplitude of
the two signals with a changeable gain amplifying means, a phase
of a tracking error signal is changed so that the servo operation
is conducted at the middle of the amplitude of the tracking error
signal to keep the magnetic head on track.

Abstract: A transmitter of a base station includes a data serial-to-parallel converter, M modulators, M beam formers, and transmission antennas. The data serial-to-parallel converter converts transmission data into M sequences. Each modulator modulates the transmission data. Each beam former weights the modulation signal to form directional beams. The transmission antennas narrow the beams and transmit the modulation signals in parallel (MIMO transmission). In a mobile station, a receiver has reception antennas for receiving data transmitted in parallel and an MIMO demodulator for demodulating the data.

Abstract: The inventive vehicle behavior control device employs a novel control strategy, suppressing deterioration of a vehicle behavior which would be induced during control processes, and being useful especially for correcting or inhibiting excessive deterioration of a vehicle behavior such as when a risk of rolling-over is detected. The device firstly judges (S20) if a possibility of rolling-over of the vehicle is high by detecting "Steering Operation for Emergency Avoidance (EASO)" and calculates a target braking control amount for reducing the possibility of rolling-over in accordance with the result of the judgment of a possibility of rolling-over of the vehicle (S30,S40), where the target control amount when the possibility of rolling-over is high is set higher (S30) than when the possibility is low (S40). Then, under control of the inventive control device, wheel braking force is controlled based upon the target braking control amount (S60). After the starting of control of the wheel braking force, however, increasing and decreasing gradients of wheel braking force is restricted when a high possibility of rolling-over is judged.
