摘要:
An optical transmission apparatus in which, even if a change is made in the bit rate of modulation signals that are inputted to a plurality of optical modulating units, the modulation signals do not suffer from phase shifting, thereby enabling achieving synchronous modulation in the plurality of optical modulating units and enabling achieving a high optical signal quality. The optical transmission apparatus includes: a plurality of optical modulating units that modulate light on the basis of modulation signals; and a delay amount control unit that, based on bit rate information indicating a bit rate of the modulation signals, controls delay amounts of the modulation signals to be inputted to the plurality of optical modulating units, such that the light is modulated in a synchronous manner in the plurality of optical modulating units.

An optical receiving apparatus includes: an A/D converting circuit; a received-signal demodulating circuit that demodulates a received digital signal from the A/D converting circuit into an m-bit received signal; a soft-decision-data generating circuit that generates n-bit (n≦m) soft-decision data based on the m-bit received signal; and an error correcting circuit that performs error correction based on the n-bit soft-decision data and outputs an error-corrected received signal. The soft-decision-data generating circuit generates soft-decision data of n bits (n=p+1) that corresponds to a determination result according to 2n−1 soft-decision thresholds, by using an MSB of the m-bit received signal as hard-decision data, and by using, as reliability information, a result of comparison between a plurality of bits (k bits, where k≦m) on an MSB side of the m-bit received signal and a fixed threshold, or p bits (p≦m−k) selected from (m−k) bits on an LSB side of the m-bit received signal.

A bias circuit that supplies bias voltage or bias current to one end of a transmission line includes an inductor that prohibits a high frequency component of a baseband signal transmitted on the transmission line and passes a frequency component near direct current of the baseband signal, and an impedance-decrease prevention element that prevents impedance from decreasing, when viewed from the transmission line, that is produced due to a resonance between a parasitic capacitance generated due to the inductor and an inductance of the inductor.

There is provided a portable information terminal having a built-in radio communications device which minimizes a drop in the voltage of a battery and diminishes the operation threshold voltage of the portable information terminal, thereby lengthening the operatable time of the terminal. In the portable information terminal, when a radio communications section is in a transmission state, a microprocessor of an interface and a microprocessor of an information processing section are brought into a hold state, thereby deactivating the interface and the information processing section. As a result, the operating current required during transmission can be minimized. When the radio communications section is not in a transmission state, the information processing section and the interface are activated. Even when the radio communications section is in a voice communication state and when information is not input to the information processing section for a given period of time, the information processing section and the interface are deactivated. A voltage drop due to internal resistance of the battery is diminished by distributing or reducing the electric current dissipated by operation, in accordance with operating conditions. Consequently, the portable information device can be operated even when the voltage of the battery drops, thus lengthening the operatable time.

A gene expressed specifically in the testis has been unexpectedly isolated in the course of studies of the expression of a gene encoding an unknown protein that triggers cell death. The isolated gene was a novel gene sequence that had no significant homologue in the database. This gene was also found to be involved in the regulation of differentiation in the testis.
