Abstract:
Transmitter and receiver for wireless communications with improved accuracy and stability in radio frequency control. A transmitter mixes an information-carrying signal (first signal) and a non-modulated wave signal (second signal) with a carrier signal, thereby producing a first and second radio frequency signals for radio wave transmission. A receiver mixes those two radio frequency signals to extract the original information signal. While the received radio frequency signals contain some frequency fluctuations and phase noises that have been introduced at the sending end, such unstable components Δf will cancel out at the receiving end.

Abstract:
A dielectric member 27 with a thickness of from 0.1&lgr; to 2&lgr; is disposed opposite to a patch plane 17 of a patch antenna 10A apart from the patch plane 17 by a distance of from 0.1&lgr;0 to 2&lgr;0, where &lgr;0 and &lgr; are the wavelengths of a radiated radio wave in free space and in the dielectric member, respectively. The dielectric constant of the dielectric member 27 may be lower in an outer portion thereof than a middle portion thereof. When the antenna is incorporated into the communication module, the dielectric member 27 is attached to the cover of the communication module.
Abstract:
A harmonic mixer comprising an anti-parallel diode having two diodes connected in parallel in reverse directions between first and second ends, the first end receiving a local oscillation signal, and the second end receiving an information signal and a DC bias, an output signal of the harmonic mixer being available at the second end. With the capabilities of the anti-parallel diode, it is possible to realize the radio communication with the use of a high frequency range at least 30 GHz at a low cost and with a simple configuration of the harmonic mixer and the radio communication device having the same, although it is considered hard to generate the stable local oscillation frequency for the radio communication of at least 30 GHz.

A fluid measurement device includes a circuit unit into which a first signal output from a first detection element and a second signal output from a second detection element are input. The circuit unit includes a signal processing part, a state deciding part, and a controller. The controller controls an amount of change that a change of the first signal imparts to the third signal in accordance with a result of decision by the state deciding part that determines that the state of the first signal is not within the predetermined range. The predetermined range is based on the second signal.
