    摘要: While keeping a propeller located in a negative direction of a y-axis turning, transmission of acoustic waves from vibrating elements of a transducer unit is interrupted. Reference signals “A” and “B” which are receiving beam signals having principal acoustic axes oriented in a propeller direction are generated from received signals obtained by “A” and “B” group vibrating elements, respectively. Next, adjustment factors used for removing propeller noise from received signals obtained by vibrating elements on positive and negative sides of an x-axis are calculated by performing arithmetic operation on time-series data on the received signals obtained by the positive and negative sides vibrating elements and on time-series data on the reference signals “A” and “B”, respectively. When performing underwater sounding operation by transmitting acoustic waves, a product of the reference signal “A” or “B” and the adjustment factor is subtracted from the received signal obtained by each of the positive and negative sides vibrating elements, respectively.

    摘要: Disclosed is a communicatory navigation system including an information center (150), at least one navigation unit (100) each mounted on a vehicle and communication means for allowing bi-directional data communication between the information center and the navigation unit. Data transmission from the navigation unit to the information center is made during a period of communication that begins when the navigation unit become communicable with the information center and ends when the bi-directional data communication therebetween is disconnected. The navigation unit is provided with a drive route history memory area (131) and an instrument operation history memory area (132), and data in these memory areas are transmitted to the information center, together with the vehicle current position data and the destination position data. The information center determines a recommended drive route from the current position to the destination, not only with reference to its own database (158) but also taking into consideration the history data. For example, if it is determined that there is a traffic accident or heavy traffic jam in some route, a bypass route is determined and transmitted back to the navigation unit. When the previous drive route indicated by data in area (131) is not found in the database (158), it can be recognized as a newly constructed road for inclusion in the database.

    摘要: A knock detection device for an internal combustion engine prevents erroneous knock detection decisions from being made due to an LC resonant current in an ion current path. An LC resonance frequency, which is determined based on an inductance of ignition coil secondary and a stray capacitance formed in the ion current path, is set so as to be displaced from a knock frequency so that the knock frequency component alone can be detected accurately from the ion current output. Preferably, the inductance of the ignition coil secondary is set to a large value, thereby setting the LC resonance frequency lower than the knock frequency and thus improving ignitability as well as knock detectability. Also preferably, the LC resonance frequency is set to a value lower than a lower cut-off frequency of a knock signal extraction band-pass filter provided in a processing circuit. This ensures more reliable elimination of the noise causing LC resonance frequency component.
