Abstract: A modem (40) and a method for controlling the same.
The modem (40) includes a first interface (30) interfacing
with a subscriber terminal (12), a second interface (70)
interfacing with a switching system (22), a detection
means (53) detecting a communication connection status
with the subscriber terminal (12) and outputting a
detection result signal, and a controller (62) processing
a data communication between the subscriber terminal (12)
and the switching system (22) and controlling the second
interface (70) to stop the operations if a non-connection
signal is inputted from the detection means (53). In the
present invention, releasing a communication channel with
the switching system (22) when the subscriber terminal
(12) is in a non-connection status reduces unnecessary
power consumption and lengthens the life span of an
apparatus. Further, the operations of such subscriber
modem can control unnecessary line occupation in a
switching system for a plurality of subscriber modems, to
reduce power consumption in the switching system and
enhance system data processing speed.

Abstract: A color image forming apparatus includes a first density detecting unit for detecting a density of a first detection toner image formed on an image bearing member or a transferring material carrying member, and a second density detecting unit for detecting a density of a second detection toner image fixed onto a transferring material, and executes image density control based on a detection result of the first density detecting unit and a detection result of the second density detecting unit. A detecting light application position of the first density detecting unit and a detection light application position of the second density detecting unit are almost equal relative to a perpendicular direction to a transferring material conveying direction. It is thereby possible to shorten time required for density control and to prevent deterioration of density control accuracy caused by a temporal change and a positional change in the density of a detection toner patch.

Abstract: An input coordinate sequence is acquired by
sampling a handwritten input pattern at predetermined
intervals, and a pattern expressed by this input
coordinate sequence is approximated by coupling a
plurality of line segments to attain line segment
conversion. Adjacent angle data [i] is generated
based on the directions of the respective line segments.
At this time, the segment line length along line
segments of all the line segments is divided by a
predetermined value at equal intervals, and the angles
obtained from the directions of the line segments at
respective division positions are defined as [i].
This [i] is compared with a standard pattern (adjacent
angle distribution data) prepared in advance to obtain
a matching level. In this way, more accurate pattern
matching for a handwritten input, which is
approximately invariant to affine transformation and
can reduce the influence of discretization errors can
be implemented.
