摘要:
A terminal apparatus adapted to receive a wireless signal by antenna diversity, wherein provisions are made to reduce the number of receive circuits while also reducing the time required for antenna selection. The a terminal apparatus is adapted to receive a wireless signal by antenna diversity, and includes: a mode-of-use detection unit for detecting the mode of use of the terminal apparatus as set up by a user; a storage unit for storing priority information that predefines an antenna to be selected for use by prioritizing the plurality of antennas according to the mode of use that can be detected by the mode-of-use detection unit; and a comparator for outputting selection control information specifying at least one antenna from among the plurality of antennas by comparing the mode of use detected by the mode-of-use detection unit with the priority information stored in the storage unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a user interface, a switching unit, and a computer. The user interface is for a user that operates a first processing unit that runs a first operating system or a second processing unit that runs a second operating system. The switching unit selectively switches between the first processing unit and the second processing unit to be associated with the user interface. The computer functions as the first processing unit. The computer functions as the second processing unit. The computer runs a first application program on the first operating system. The computer activates, on the second operating system, a second application program related to the first application program, in a state in which the first processing unit is associated with the user interface. The computer controls the switching unit upon completion of the activation of the second application program.

An information access system includes: a passive contactless information storage device (500) capable of transmitting and receiving signals; a fixed-station information processing device (100) having an information processing unit, and a wireless transmitter for transmitting, in a contactless manner, a command signal for requesting transmission of information stored in the information storage device and supplying power in a contactless manner to the information storage device; and a mobile-station information processing device (200) having an information processing unit, an information presenting unit, a battery, and a wireless receiver for receiving a response signal for response to the command signal, from the information storage device in a contactless manner. While the fixed-station device is supplying power to the information storage device in the contactless manner, the information storage device transmits, in response to the command signal, the response signal to the mobile-station device in the contactless manner.

An information processing apparatus includes: a physical quantity detector unit which transforms a physical quantity into an electric signal and provides a detected value represented by the electric signal; a physical quantity determiner unit which determines whether the detected value is larger than a given threshold value; a timer unit which measures a time period during which it continues to be determined that the detected value is not larger than the given threshold value, in response to the determination that the detected value is not larger than the given threshold value after it is determined that the detected value is larger than the given threshold; a transmitter unit which transmits a request signal for requesting transmission of data, when the time period measured by the timer unit transcends a first given time threshold; and a receiver unit which receives transmitted data which is transmitted in response to the request signal.
摘要:
An information access system comprises a reader/writer for continually transmitting an ID request signal at a first frequency and being continuously ready to receive an RF signal at a second frequency, and an active contactless information storage device having a receiver for sensing a carrier of an RF signal at the first frequency, and a transmitter for transmitting a response signal at the second frequency when the ID request signal is received. When the receiver senses a carrier of an RF signal at the first frequency in a particular predetermined period, the receiver receives further the ID request signal, and, in response to the ID request signal, the transmitter transmits a response signal at the second frequency carrying an ID of the storage device stored. In the carrier sensing, the controller causes the receiver to be in an active state and the transmitter to be in an inactive state in the predetermined periods. When the receiver attempts to sense a carrier of the RF signal at the first frequency in a particular predetermined period but detects no carrier, the controller controls the receiver and the transmitter to maintain the inactive state during a sleep period between the particular predetermined period and the subsequent predetermined period.

There is provided an information processing apparatus including an information acquirer configured to acquire information transmitted from an access point, a movement determiner configured to determine whether or not the information processing apparatus is moving, and a registration deletion determiner configured to determine, based on the acquired information and a result determined by the movement determiner, whether to register or delete information of an location of the access point.
摘要:
In an information access system, a reader/writer device encrypts, with a first encryption key, an information request and a second encryption key to thereby generate first encrypted data, and encrypts the information request with the second encryption key to thereby generate second encrypted data, and transmits cyclically an information request signal that alternately carries the first encrypted data and the second encrypted data. An active contactless information storage device receives the information request signal and decrypts the encrypted data carried by the information request signal with one encryption key stored in its memory. When the second encryption key different from the one encryption key is contained in the decrypted data, the information storage device rewrites the one encryption key with the second encryption key.
