Abstract:
A bit error counter for a digital communication system has transmitter and receiver. The transmitter includes circuitry for convolution encoding of an input original signal and outputting a transmission signal. The receiver includes error correcting/decoding circuitry for inputting a reception signal corresponding to the transmission signal and outputting a decoded signal, and when an overflow occurs, for outputting an overflow signal. State monitoring circuitry is provided for receiving the overflow signal and issuing a switching instruction signal to a switch only when the overflow signal is received. The switch also receives the decoded signal and outputs at least one of a bit error rate or a number of errors when the switching instruction signal is received. The switch outputs the decoded signal when the switching instruction signal is not received. Re-encoding circuitry receives the decoded signal from the switch and outputs a re-encoded signal by subjecting the decoded signal to the same encoding as that of the reception signal. A comparator receives the re-encoded signal and a delayed reception signal, and outputs the bit error rate and the number of errors.

Abstract:
A fluid pump has a cylinder supporting a plunger and a pump housing formed with dissimilar metals. A pressing mechanism presses the cylinder and the pump housing relative to each other so that a pressurizing chamber is sealed through a pressing surface between the pump housing and the cylinder. The number of seal points can be reduce, and a reduction in reliability can be eliminated while realizing a reduction in weight of the pump housing and a reduction in cost due to increase in cutting capability, by using a soft material such as an aluminum alloy for the pump housing.
Abstract:
A high pressure fuel pump for an internal combustion engine having a cylinder, a plunger slidably fitted in the cylinder and a seal mechanism for blocking fuel leakage from an end of a sliding portion between the cylinder and the plunger and also for preventing an lubricant for a driving mechanism of the plunger from entering into the cylinder from the end of the sliding portion of the cylinder and the plunger. A holder surrounding the end of the sliding portion of the cylinder and the plunger is provided. The seal mechanism comprises two mutually independent seal devices mounted with a specific spacing in a longitudinal direction from the end of the sliding portion of the cylinder and the plunger along a circumference of the plunger. The two seal devices are held on the circumference of the plunger by the holder surrounding the end of the sliding portion of the cylinder and the plunger while keeping the specific spacing.
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to dampen operating sounds of an electromagnetic drive mechanism used for a variable displacement to reduce an individual difference depending on apparatus due to the control mechanism in a high-pressure fuel supply pump change over time or installation tolerance.To achieve the above objective, the present invention is configured such that before the electromagnetic drive mechanism supplies a drive force to a plunger which is electromagnetically driven by the electromagnetic drive mechanism, another displacement force situates the plunger in a specific position. When compared to an occasion where the plunger is displaced all strokes by a magnetic biasing force, the above configuration is able to reduce the force of impact on a member (for example, valve body) mounted to the plunger and a restricting member, thereby damping the collision noise. Furthermore, since an extra member, such as a damping member, is not required, individual difference depending on apparatus do not easily occur.
Abstract:
In a mobile radio communication system, a transmitter of a base station transmits broadcast information to receivers of mobile stations in the form of frames. The transmitter produces a long frame composed of a plurality of frames each including a first bit sequence and part of the broadcast information following the first bit sequence, and a second bit sequence located at the head of the long frame. Each of the first bit sequences and the second bit sequence is used for establishing synchronization between the transmitter and each of the receivers. Upon receipt of the long frame from the transmitter, the receiver establishes synchronization of the long frame based on the foregoing second bit sequence.
Abstract:
A mobile communication system includes a base station and mobile stations divided into a plurality of groups. A radio communication device 10 at the base station spreads framed control information using a spreading code, and then transmits it via a control channel to the mobile stations. The radio communication device 10 includes a header spreading code generating section 16 which produces mutually different two spreading codes, and further includes a header adding section 17 which, using the mutually different two spreading codes, double-spreads information about allocation of an access right to corresponding one of the groups and adds the double-spread information as a frame header to a frame body representing the foregoing framed and spread control information.
Abstract:
An intermittent transmission control system based on a TDMA system which involves a burst transmission, has a sound presence detector for detecting presence or absence of sound information to be transmitted on the basis of an aural signal input from a microphone; a switch unit for switching types of the burst transmission; and a call control processor for causing the switch unit to switch the types of the burst transmission in such a way that a normal burst transmission containing the sound information is performed if presence of the sound information is detected by the sound presence detector, whereas a reduced burst transmission containing time interval information of the burst transmission is performed if no burst transmission is performed for a predetermined time. The call control processor also causes the switch unit to switch the types of the burst transmission in such a way that the normal burst transmission containing Fast Associated Control Channel information is performed.
