| 20100035539 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION-IMPROVING SHEET MEMBER, WIRELESS IC TAG, ANTENNA, AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING THE SAME - In one embodiment of the present invention, an object of the invention is to provide a wireless communication-improving sheet member capable of increasing a possible communication distance of an IC tag for wireless communication, a wireless IC tag, an antenna, and a wireless communication system. A first spacer includes an arrangement face on which on which the wireless IC tag is disposed without a wired connection, and an auxiliary antenna is disposed on the first spacer on an opposite side to the arrangement face, the auxiliary antenna resonating with electromagnetic waves used in the wireless communication. The auxiliary antenna includes a first conductor layer as a resonant layer and a second spacer. The second spacer is disposed on an opposite side to the first spacer with the first conductor layer interposed therebetween. A discontinuous area is disposed in the first conductor layer of the auxiliary antenna. Thus, it is possible to not only eliminate influence of a communication-jamming member, but also increase received electrical power of a wireless IC tag (antenna), and ensure a long communication distance. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100052992 | Sheet Member for Improving Communication, and Antenna Device and Electronic Information Transmitting Apparatus Provided Therewith - In one embodiment of the present invention, a conductive pattern portion formed in a pattern layer functions as an antenna, and, when electromagnetic waves at a predetermined frequency arrive, resonance occurs, and an electromagnetic wave of a specific frequency is introduced into a sheet member. As to the sheet member having the pattern layer, even in a small and thin sheet member, the phase of reflected waves from the reflection area can be adjusted, and thus an area having high electric field intensity due to interference between reflected waves from the reflection area and arriving electromagnetic waves can be set in the vicinity of the antenna element. When the sheet member is disposed between an antenna element and a communication jamming member, an electromagnetic field is generated around the conductive pattern portion, and an electromagnetic energy is supplied from the conductive pattern portion to the antenna element, and therefore receiving power of the antenna element can be increased. Accordingly, wireless communication can be suitably performed. | 03-04-2010 |

| 20080262692 | Road-surface friction-coefficient estimating device - A road-surface friction-coefficient estimating device compares a rack-thrust-force deviation value with a preliminarily set maximum-value-determination threshold value. If the rack-thrust-force deviation value is above the maximum-value-determination threshold value, the device determines that tires are slipping, and sets a front-wheel friction-circle utilization rate in that state as a road-surface friction coefficient. If the rack-thrust-force deviation value is below the maximum-value-determination threshold value, the device refers to a preliminarily set map to determine a restoring speed at which the road-surface friction coefficient is to be restored to 1.0 based on a vehicle speed and a front-wheel slip angle. While restoring the road-surface friction coefficient at the restoring speed, the device calculates and outputs the road-surface friction coefficient. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20100082251 | VEHICLE DRIVE ASSIST SYSTEM - A form of a travel path of an oncoming vehicle is recognized based on white-line data. A speed component of the oncoming vehicle with respect to the travel path (route) is calculated by weighting a lateral speed component orthogonal to the route and a lateral speed component following the route, with a speed correction coefficient which is set in accordance with a relative distance between a subject vehicle and the oncoming vehicle. A change in behavior of the oncoming vehicle is predicted, and a possibility of collision against the subject vehicle is determined. If it is determined that there is a possibility of collision, an alarm is output to alert a driver to the possibility of collision. | 04-01-2010 |

| 20110172883 | STEERING CONTROL SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - A steering control section has a first steering angle correction amount calculating section, a second steering angle correction amount calculating section, and a motor rotational angle calculating section. The first correction amount calculating section calculates a first correction amount based on a vehicle speed and an actual steering wheel angle. The second correction amount calculating section calculates a second correction amount through multiplying a control gain corresponding to the vehicle speed with a value calculated by low-pass filtering a differential value of steering wheel angle. The motor rotational angle calculating section calculates a motor rotational angle corresponding to the value adding the first and second steering angle correction amount, and outputs it to a motor driving section so as to drive an electric motor for correcting the steering angle. Thereby, an unstable vehicle behavior due to a resonance of a yaw motion caused in the steering operation can be suppressed. | 07-14-2011 |
