Patent CA-2606377-A1 (CA)
Inventor: IMAI TOMOHIRO
IPC: H04B7/06
Filed: 2006-04-26
Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus that allows propagation path information to be reproduced with high precision at a transmitting end without increasing feedback information amount. In this apparatus, a channel estimating part (103) uses a received pilot signal to perform channel estimation for each propagation path. A correlation detecting part (104) uses the result of the channel estimation to obtain correlation values between the channels, thereby detecting correlation values of all channels. An amplitude/phase ratio determining part (105) determines, based on the correlation values, the quantization bit ratio of the amplitude and phase of propagation path information to be used when those amplitude and phase are quantized. A feedback information generating part (106) quantizes the propagation path information in accordance with the determined ratio of the amplitude and phase.

Title: Vehicle control device
Inventor: TAKENAKA TORU
IPC: B60W10/10
Filed: 2006-12-21
Abstract: An FB distribution rule (20) decides an actual actuator operation control input and a vehicle model operation control input so that a difference (state amount difference) between a regulated state amount decided by a vehicle model (16) and an actual state amount of an actual vehicle (1) approaches 0 and the actuator device (3) of the actual vehicle (1) and the vehicle model (16) are operated according to the control inputs. In the FB distribution rule (20), when the actual vehicle side feedback requirement amount based on the state amount difference exists in a non-detectable band, the actual vehicle actuator operation control input is decided by using the required amount as a predetermined value. The vehicle model operation control input is decided so that the state amount difference approaches 0 without depending on whether the actual vehicle side feedback requirement amount exists in the non-detectable band. Thus, it is possible to increase the linearity of the control system, performs actuator operation control appropriate for the actual vehicle behavior, and increase the robust feature against an external turbulence or its change.

The wheel racket being slipped on the top of the corresponding sealing part has a securing seat furnished at the center thereof for containing a flint, and has two file-wheel seats furnished by extending thereon up at opposite sides.  Moreover, a securing hole is provided near the top end of each of the file-wheel seats. What is more, a plurality of row teeth is provided in axial direction at the circumference thereof for the user to file the file wheel. The metal cap is used to cap on the sealing part. The lever further includes a base, a slipping hole, and a pressing part. The lever can have various pivot point structures including a flange, a partitioning-wall, a standing-post, and a salient part. The arm S1 of the exerting force is smaller than the arm S2 of the resisting force, thereby the mechanical advantage is smaller than one, that is the exerting force P is greater than resisting force Q. Therefore, the lever is not a force economical but a force wasting one. Nevertheless, the exerting force for pressing the lever and filing the filing wheel is still within the range of the manipulative force of the user. The ratio of mechanical advantage is in the range of 0.3 ~ 0.8. Consequently, the lever-type safety lighter of the invention is capable of achieving the efficacy of product safety.
