Abstract:
An electrical signal is fed from one end of an antenna element, and the other end thereof is terminated by a variable reactance circuit. A reactance value of the variable reactance circuit is changed according to use state of a device to optimally set its directivity. Matching conditions at an electricity feeding point are controlled to match an impedance of the electricity feeding point which fluctuates according to the value of the variable reactance circuit. With the above construction, there are provided an antenna device that is downsized, can control its directivity, and does not deteriorate a communication quality depending on a use state, and a radio communication apparatus provided with the antenna device.
Abstract:
An antenna device capable of keeping a high reception level even in a circumstance where a vibration is imparted to the antenna device is provided. An antenna unit part is coupled to a housing unit (210) in such a way that the antenna unit part can be relatively oscillated. Acceleration sensors (231-234) that detect accelerations that occur in an azimuth angle direction and an elevation angle direction are provided in the housing unit (210). Linear actuators (251A, 252A) are provided between the housing unit (210) and an antenna unit part (220) so that the linear actuators are able to adjust a relative angle of the antenna unit part (220) with respect to the housing unit (210). A variation amount calculation unit (312) calculates a variation amount in the elevation angle direction and the azimuth angle direction based on the accelerations detected by the acceleration sensors (231-234). A correction amount calculation unit (313) calculates a correction amount to cancel the variation amount calculated by the variation amount calculation unit (312). The linear actuators (251A, 252A) are driven based on the correction amount.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a parabolic antenna excellent in radio wave absorption characteristics and durability even at a reduced cost. SOLUTION: In the parabolic antenna 1 including a reflector 2, a shroud 3 and a primary radiator 4, a plurality of plate-like radio wave absorbers 10 made of a wood piece are arranged side by side on the inner peripheral surface of the shroud 3. Also, by adjusting the shape and thickness of the radio wave absorbers 10, the radio wave absorption characteristics are improved, and side lobe characteristics are improved. Further, by securing the interval D1 of the radio wave absorbers 10, the reflection characteristics of the oblique incidence of radio waves are improved. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small-sized antenna device controlling directivity without lowering a communication performance by a using state or a posture, and also to provide radio communication equipment provided with it. SOLUTION: Power is fed from one of the terminals of an antenna element and the other terminal is terminated at a variable reactance circuit. The reactance value of the variable reactance circuit is changed corresponding to the using condition and the posture of the device and thus the directivity is optimally set. Also, matching conditions at a feeding point are controlled and the impedance of the feeding point varied by the value of the variable reactance circuit is matched. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an antenna assembly which copes with use of a plurality of frequencies or a plurality of communication systems by a single antenna and allows the directivity to be controlled to improve the communication performance. SOLUTION: A constitution allowing an antenna shape to be freely changed is given to not only vary the directivity but also cope with an arbitrary frequency band. That is, a plurality of antenna elements 1 are arranged, and switches 2 switching to connection/non-connection states between these elements are provided between adjacent elements, and a dipole shape bent at 90° is given by varying the antenna shape by control of these switches to obtain the directivity, and the length of the dipole shape is controlled to allow switching of the frequency band. Furthermore, a reflector 20 having a shape similar to the dipole antenna 10 is formed to improve the directivity. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the generation of a seek error due to the influence of a defect existing in a substituted track by substituting a cylinder, which cannot be positioned, for a defect track, retreating a defect sector on the basis of information on a defect position, and performing a seek operation. SOLUTION: When a defect exists in a track (n+4), the track (n+4) is regarded as unusable so as to be replaced with another track, and it is possible to prevent that a track cannot be positioned. When a track B is taken while a part between adjacent tracks is seeked, a seek operation is started after a write operation to a track (n+3) is finished. At this time, a seek starting position is deviated while the track (n+4) passes a defect area, and, e.g. a track C is taken. Thereby, it is possible to prevent a seek error which is generated when the track (n+4) passes the defect area. In addition, even in the starting sector of a track (n+5), the seek starting position is deviated in advance.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a transient response between writing and reading in a magnetic disk device. SOLUTION: A reproducing signal 1-1 read from a magnetic head 1 is amplified by a preamplifier 2 and inputted to an AGC circuit 3. The AGC circuit 3 amplifies an inputted reproduced signal 102 into a certain amplitude and outputs this signal to a demodulation circuit 4. The demodulation circuit 4 demodulates the reproduced signal to original data and outputs a demodulated signal 104. The AGC circuit 3 holds an AGC gain, switches input impedance and switches the operating speed of the AGC based on inputted control signals A107 and B108. An AGC control circuit 5 counts an reference clock signal 106 when a write gate signal 105 is active. Thus, a timing for controlling the AGC circuit 3 is changed depending on the time of writing. Especially, when the time of writing changes because of the difference of a format, a control signal is generated with a timing for making the circuit optimal.
