| 20090196371 | MIMO ANTENNA APPARATUS CHANGING ANTENNA ELEMENTS BASED ON TRANSMISSION CAPACITY - A controller of a MIMO antenna apparatus calculates a current transmission capacity based on signal levels detected by a signal level detector circuit. The controller calculates an estimated transmission capacity assuming that at least one of antenna elements currently connected to a MIMO modulator and demodulator circuit is changed to a further antenna element not connected to the MIMO modulator and demodulator circuit, based on the detected signal levels and degrees of electromagnetic coupling stored in a degree-of-coupling memory. The controller controls a switch circuit to connect the further antenna element to the MIMO modulator and demodulator circuit when the current transmission capacity becomes lower than the estimated transmission capacity. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20090221253 | ADAPTIVE CONTROL APPARATUS USING MULTIPLE ADAPTIVE CONTROL METHODS - In the adaptive control apparatus, a computation unit computes weighting coefficients, using a first adaptive control method in a proportion α of a first computation amount, where the first adaptive control method has a first convergence rate and a first convergence error. Further, a computation unit computes weighting coefficients from initial values of the weighting coefficients computed by the computation unit, using a second adaptive control method in a proportion (1−α) of a second computation amount, where the second adaptive control method has a second convergence rate slower than the first convergence rate and a second convergence error smaller than the first convergence error. A controller controls determination of a ratio α/(1-α) based on a moving speed of a mobile unit, and controls the computation units to perform computing processes. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100022197 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION APPARATUS FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY PERFORMING MULTIPLE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - A portable wireless communication apparatus is provided with antenna elements; a mobile phone signal processing circuit; a DTV tuner for receiving DTV low-band frequency signals and DTV high-band frequency signals; impedance matching circuits for the mobile phone signal processing circuit; and impedance matching circuits for the DTV tuner for receiving the DTV low-band frequency signals and DTV high-band frequency signals. A switch is changed to select either the DTV low-band frequency signals or the DTV high-band frequency signals, and output the selected signals to the DTV tuner. A tuner controller controls the switch to select the DTV high-band frequency signals by using the antenna element for transmission from the mobile phone signal processing circuit. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20100194475 | AMPLIFYING CIRCUIT WITH BYPASS CIRCUIT, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING THE SAME - An amplifying circuit with a bypassing function includes an input terminal to which a signal is input from an antenna, an amplifier connected to the input terminal, a first inductor connected between the input port and a ground, and a bypass circuit connected between the input terminal and the output port of the amplifier. The bypass circuit includes a first port connected to the input terminal, a second port connected to the output port of the amplifier, a switch, a capacitor, and a second inductor. The switch is connected in series between the first and second ports. The capacitor is connected in series to the switch between the first and second ports. The second inductor is connected in series to the switch and the capacitor between the first and second ports. The amplifying circuit does not reduce power of a signal drastically even when the signal passes through the bypass circuit, as compared to passing through the amplifier, thus maintaining a profile of a propagation property unchanged and provide preferable transmission quality. | 08-05-2010 |
