Abstract:
When it is determined that a power mode is a power save mode, and that a MAC address in a received beacon matches the MAC address of a wireless communication apparatus which newly joins a wireless network, the power mode of all the communication apparatuses which have joined the wireless network is switched from the power save mode to a normal power mode.
Abstract:
A bidirectional optical space transmission system is made up of a pair of optical transmission apparatus. Each optical transmission apparatus comprises a signal generating circuit for generating a pilot signal, a multiplexing section for multiplexing the pilot signal and a main signal to be transmitted, an electrooptic converter section for emitting an optical signal on the basis of the signal produced by the multiplexing process, a light receiving element for receiving an optical signal transmitted from the partner optical transmission apparatus and detecting a pilot signal contained therein, and a demodulation circuit for demodulating the pilot signal detected by the light receiving element. Pilot signals multiplexed with main signals to be transmitted through the bidirectional optical transmission system are subjected to spreading modulation and demodulated for spreading by the demodulation circuit.
