A developing apparatus includes a developing unit configured to be detachable from and attachable to an image forming apparatus to contain a developer, a rotary member configured to rotate in the developing unit, and a detection unit installed on an internal surface of the developing unit and configured to detect a pressure caused by pressure through the developer by rotation of the rotary member. In addition, a measurement unit is configured to measure a period in which the pressure is changed, and a determination unit is configured to determine an amount of the developer in the developing unit based on the period detected by the measurement unit.

A CPU determines that a motor is undergoing a forward rotation when a time difference between a detection timing of a light beam deflected by a rotating polygonal mirror and an output timing of a detection signal from a magnetic detector element falls within a predetermined range, and that the motor is undergoing a reverse rotation when the time difference does not fall within the predetermined range. With this configuration, a detection circuit for detecting voltage induced in three phases is unnecessary, and therefore the cost can be reduced. Furthermore, there is no need to detect voltage induced in each of the three phases. As it suffices to simply detect the time difference, the amount of time required to detect a rotation direction can be reduced.

A developing unit includes a developer storage unit, a developer bearing member, an agitation member, a flexible member, and a magnet member. The developer storage unit stores a developer. The developer bearing member develops an electrostatic latent image formed on an image bearing member with the developer. The agitation member agitates the developer in the developer storage unit. The flexible member, disposed in the developer storage unit, is distorted by pressure applied by the agitation member via the developer. The magnet member, disposed on the flexible member, is displaced in response to the flexible member being distorted.

A transmission apparatus performs distortion compensation on a power amplifier using a distortion compensator that includes an adaptive equalizer. The transmission apparatus includes a filter coefficient storage unit that stores filter coefficients that are each set in a digital filter of the adaptive equalizer; a filter coefficient setting unit that selects a filter coefficient from the filter coefficient storage unit according to a feedback signal from the power amplifier; an adjustment value storage unit that stores adjustment values in association with transmission frequencies, the adjustment values each being used by the filter coefficient setting unit to select the filter coefficient; and an initial value setting unit that reads an adjustment value corresponding to a transmission frequency, which is set in the transmission apparatus, from the adjustment value storage unit and sets the read adjustment value as an initial value of the adjustment value used for selecting the filter coefficient.

A radio transmission apparatus performs peak suppression processing in the two stages of pre-peak suppression processing and post-peak suppression processing. The gain adjustment processing of transmission power is performed in the two stages of coarse gain adjustment processing, prior to the pre-peak suppression processing, and fine gain adjustment processing prior to the post-peak suppression processing. The fine gain adjustment processing has a smaller adjustment step width than the coarse gain adjustment processing, and can adjust the transmission power in response to a small variation of the transmission power. In the pre-peak suppression processing, a peak suppression value corresponding to the gain set by the coarse gain adjustment processing is set on the basis of each value being preset in a table for each transmission power value. In the post-peak suppression processing, the peak suppression value corresponding to the gain modified by the fine gain adjustment processing is obtained by calculation.
