Abstract: Each of wireless interconnecting devices is structured to add a transfer AP list to a packet when transferring the packet while judging, when a packet is received, whether or not the received packet is a packet previously transferred by the wireless interconnecting device based on the judgment whether or not its own MAC address exists in a transfer AP list included in the received packet, and in a case its own MAC address does not exist in the transfer AP list, to transfer the received packet, when it is a kind of packet which needs to be transferred, with its own MAC address added to the transfer AP list so that endless transfer of the packet is prevented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling recording and reproduction
in a video cassette tape recorder capable of, in a recording
mode, separating specific data for speed-varied reproduction
from compressed digital video signals, recording them on
designated tracks, recording position information of the
designated tracks on a control track by an index head or
recording position information of recording position-synchronized
blocks at the starting portions of the designated
tracks recorded with the specific data, and in a speed-varied
reproduction mode, controlling a capstan servo speed so as to
maintain the travel of a magnetic tape at a normal speed and
periodically or non-periodically accelerate or decelerate it
where specific data for varied-speed have been recorded
periodically or non-periodically on predetermined portions of
tracks, thereby making heads travel repeatedly at the normal
speed and the high speed and thereby detect continuously the
specific tracks for varied-speed. A repeatability of
reproduced video at a varied speed is obtained without any
deterioration in picture quality, because of recording of
specific data for speed-varied reproduction and continuous
detection of the specific data in the speed-varied
reproduction.

Abstract: A system for issuing, receiving, authenticating and using an
e-coupon uses a hand-held consumer terminal, such as a cellular
phone. A user (consumer) finds an e-coupon issue center (200) by
reading an ID with an opto-electrical transducer (101) associated
with the consumer terminal (100). A keyboard can also enter the
information. The cellular phone communicates with the issue
center directly from the ID or through an ID resolution center
(400)(or manufacturer) to request issuance of the e-coupon ID.
The issue center after checking the ID, issues and transmits the
e-coupon ID to the consumer terminal. The consumer uses the e-coupon
ID and his own ID at a retailer (300) which accesses the
issue center to determine the validity of the e-coupon. The user
can receive and use an e-coupon while keeping personal information
private by using an anonymous proxy server.
