Abstract: A radar detection process includes computing a derivative of an FFT output signal to detect an object within a specified detection zone. In one embodiment, a zero crossing in the second derivative of the FFT output signal indicates the presence of an object. The range of the object is determined as a function of the frequency at which the zero crossing occurs. Also described is a detection table containing indicators of the presence or absence of an object within a respective radar beam and processing cycle. At least two such indicators are combined in order to detect the presence of an object within the detection zone and with changing range gates in each of the antenna beams the coverage of the detection zone can be varied.

Abstract: A calculation apparatus comprises a plurality of processing units that processes a plurality of predetermined calculation processes each composed of steps, respectively, and a memory device to which the plurality of processing units are accessible. Specific information that specifies a step that should be executed next among steps of each of the calculation process is memorized in the memory device. In each of the processing units, only when a step specified by the specific information should be executed by that processing unit, the specified step is executed, and the specific information is updated to allow the next step to be executed. This is repeated for all the steps of each calculation process assigned to the plurality of processing units. Each processing unit will not execute steps until the specific information shows that a step specified by the specific information is for the processing unit.

Abstract: A method for estimating the magnitude of a tire force acting on a rolling tire is disclosed, wherein: using at least seven sensors mounted on a tire sidewall portion, surface strain is simultaneously measured at seven measuring positions; with respect to a combination of the seven measuring positions, a coefficient matrix representing correlation with seven force components is defined, and a equation including the coefficient matrix is defined; using the data on the surface strain measured with the sensors, the equation is computed to find at least one of the seven force components, e.g. air pressure. The estimated air pressure is compared with a reference pressure, to determine whether the tire pressure is dropped or not. Further, a secondary sensor is mounted in a peculiar region where the surface strain is substantially not affected by the vertical load.

Abstract: A channel selection section (17) receives a broadcast signal containing analog broadcasting and a broadcast signal containing digital broadcasting and selects one of the broadcast signals. A variable gain amplifier (25) amplifies the selected broadcast signal by a gain in accordance with a gain control signal. A digital broadcast signal demodulation section (33) demodulates a broadcast signal amplified by the variable gain amplifier (25) and provides a value based on a signal level of the broadcast signal, as the gain control signal. An analog broadcast signal demodulation section (28) demodulates analog broadcast signals which are contained in the broadcast signal selected by the channel selection section and which have passed through the filters (26 and 27). The digital broadcast signal demodulation section (28) includes a logical section (33-2) that sets a gain of the variable gain amplifier to have a minimum value if the channel selection section selects the analog broadcasting.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to reduce press-in resistance without reducing a force for retaining a tab-shaped terminal. 
     Since a press-in hole 16 of a housing 10 is formed to be gradually wider from the front end toward the rear end, a large dimensional difference between the width of the press-in hole 16 and that of a press-in portion 21 of a tab-shaped terminal 20 is ensured at a front end portion of the press-in hole 16, so that the tab-shaped terminal 20 can be reliably retained in the housing 10. On the other hand, since the dimensional difference between the width of the press-in hole 16 and that of the press-in portion 21 is small at a rear end portion of the press-in hole 16, press-in resistance at an initial stage of a press-in process is reduced.
