摘要:
In optical two-way communication using a single optical fiber, part of the light transmitted from an apparatus is received as stray light by the apparatus itself. This occasionally hampers accurate detection of disconnection from the partner apparatus and of the start of data communication by the partner apparatus after the establishment of connection. To overcome this, the timing with which an apparatus transmits a tone signal after the establishment of connection is compared with the timing with which the apparatus receives a tone signal from the partner apparatus, and the two apparatuses use different sets of data transmission properties (for example, different wavelengths) to accurately detect disconnection. Moreover, based on the properties of the received light and the characteristics of the receiving amplifier, repetition of the same code for longer than a predetermined period is detected to accurately detect disconnection. Furthermore, in response to a request for data communication after the establishment of connection, a tone signal having a different pattern from that used to establish connection is used to accurately detect the start of data communication.

A transmission method uses multiple kinds of control codes to be exchanged on a serial transmission path between a sender side and a receiver side, and each of the multiple kinds of control codes has bits smaller in number than a predetermined fixed length. The transmission method includes the steps of inspecting the received bit string in groups of bits of the number of the control code, and thereby determining whether one of the multiple kinds of control codes is present in the serial signal received on the serial transmission path or not, selecting the control code to be sent based on a result of the determination in the determining step, sending, onto the serial transmission path, a bit string containing at least the control code to be sent based on the result of the determination in the determining step, and receiving the data code by inspecting the received bit string in groups of bits of the fixed length in response to the detection of the control code indicating the start of transmission of the data from the opposite side in the determining step.

A method of half duplex transmission of a packetized digital data includes the steps of inputting a new packet to be transmitted to a first-in-first-out storage, determining whether the new packet contains time information related to synchronization with other electronic device, responsive to the determination that the new packet contains time information, updating a local timer of the electronic device with a prescribed value, continuously incrementing the local timer, responsive to a timing enabling transmission of the new packet by the transmitting/receiving unit of the electronic device, reading the new packet from the first-in-first-out storage, determining whether the new packet contains time information or not, changing the time information by using a value of the local timer to prevent mismatch in synchronization with other electronic device, and outputting to the bus through the transmitting/receiving unit.

A data transfer method includes a connection establishment step of detecting connection with a remote device and setting parameters for data transfer, and a transfer execution step of starting data transfer after completion of the connection establishment step and continuing data transfer until a transfer error is recognized to have occurred. In the transfer execution step, the frequency of errors in received data is monitored and, when the frequency reaches a predetermined value, a transfer error is recognized to have occurred.

An ignition system including a plasma jet spark plug, a discharge power source, and an energy input portion. The spark plug includes a center electrode inserted and installed in the axis hole of an insulator, a ground electrode forming a clearance with the center electrode in between, and a cavity defined by an inner peripheral surface of the axis hole and a top end surface of the center electrode. A plasma is generated in the cavity as the discharge power source generates a spark discharge by applying a voltage to the clearance and the energy input portion inputs electric power into the clearance. The energy input portion inputs electric power into the clearance more than once in a single spark discharge.

摘要:
An ignition device for a plasma jet ignition plug is provided. A resistance for decreasing electric noises is not incorporated in a plasma jet ignition plug. A resistance of not less than 1KΩ and not more than 20KΩ is provided to a path from a spark discharge circuit to a center electrode, thus reducing the generation of electric noises at the time of trigger discharge. Along with the reduction of the generation of electric noises, a loss of energy at the time of plasma discharge can be reduced by setting an inner resistance provided to a line extending to the center electrode from a plasma discharge circuit to 1Ω or less. Accordingly, the plasma jet ignition plug can jet flame-shaped plasma sufficiently large for igniting an air-fuel mixture.

A plasma jet ignition plug capable of inhibiting occurrence of channeling while reducing removal of energy of plasma through a ground electrode at the time of emission of plasma. A ground electrode of a plasma jet ignition plug projects inward from a front end face of a metallic shell toward an opening end of a cavity which is open at a front end face of an insulator. A projecting distal end which forms a spark discharge gap between the same and a center electrode within a cavity is located inward, with respect to a diametral direction P orthogonal to an axis O, of a position which is located 0.5 mm radially outward from the opening end of the cavity.
