Abstract: The ability to combine multiple audio signals captured from the microphones in a microphone array is frequently used in beamforming systems. Typically, beamforming involves processing the output audio signals of the microphone array in such a way as to make the microphone array act as a highly directional microphone. In other words, beamforming provides a "listening beam" which points to a particular sound source while often filtering out other sounds. A "generic beamformer," as described herein automatically designs a set of beams (i.e., beamforming) that cover a desired angular space range within a prescribed search area. Beam design is a function of microphone geometry and operational characteristics, and also of noise models of the environment around the microphone array. One advantage of the generic beamformer is that it is applicable to any microphone array geometry and microphone type.

Abstract: In a mobile communication terminal for starting and simultaneously using a plurality of applications, one desired application starts fast to improve the operability when the number of started applications reaches a present limiting number of applications. An application start determining unit searches a list of started applications in response to the instruction of the start of application to obtain the number of started applications, and determines that the application cannot start when the number of started applications reaches a preset limiting number of applications. An ending-application selecting unit selects, as an ending application to be ended, the application with the low priority from the start applications based on the preset priority of application when the application start determining unit determines that the application cannot start. An application ending unit performs the ending processing of the ending application selected by the ending-application selecting unit and deletes the selected ending application from the list of started applications.

Abstract: A liquid crystal television receiver reduces the brightness of a backlight which generates light to be passed through a liquid crystal panel and thereby forms an image, to a brightness invisible to human eyes (step S 104). After the brightness is reduced, a panel signal to the liquid crystal panel is controlled to change from the ON state to the OFF state (step S111). After the panel signal is controlled to change to the OFF state, the backlight is controlled to change from the ON state to the OFF state (step S113). 
     In this way, the backlight of the liquid crystal panel is controlled so that disturbance in image, which occurs when the panel signal to the liquid crystal panel is changed from the ON state to the OFF state, can easily be prevented from being seen by users.
