At least two adaptive control processors calculate N weight coefficients corresponding to N beams according to a constant modulus algorithm, respectively multiplies the calculated beam field strengths by the calculated N weight coefficients, and combines in phase respective signals of multiplication results, outputting the combined signal as a reception signal. In an initial state of one adaptive control processor, a weight coefficient thereof corresponding to the maximum beam field strength is set to a predetermined initial value not zero, and weight coefficients corresponding to the other beam field strengths are set to zero. In an initial state of the other adaptive control processor, a weight coefficient of the other adaptive control processor corresponding to at least a beam field strength having the second greater level is set to the initial value, and weight coefficients corresponding to the other beam field strengths is set to zero.

    摘要: An array antenna apparatus for use in spread spectrum communications is provided including a plurality of antenna elements aligned on a straight line. The array antenna apparatus is used in a receiving station for receiving spread-spectrum modulated radio signals having a wavelength of a predetermined carrier frequency transmitted from transmitting stations using a two-dimensional RAKE receiving method, and for performing spread spectrum communications in code division multiple access. The plurality of antenna elements are aligned such that an interval between antenna elements adjacent to each other among the plurality of antenna elements is set to a value which is larger than one half the wavelength of the carrier frequency and which is equal to or smaller than sixteen times the wavelength of the carrier frequency so as to generate grating lobes. In this case, the interval is preferably set to a value which is an integer or fractional (decimal) multiple of one half the wavelength of the carrier frequency which is greater than unity.

    摘要: In an optical amplifier apparatus for amplifying an incident signal light having wavelengths of 1.06 &mgr;m band, a first optical isolator makes an incident signal light pass therethrough in one direction from an input end to an output end. An optical fiber includes a core mainly composed of silica glass and doped with a predetermined rare-earth element and the other elements, and a cladding of silica glass, and transfers in a single mode the signal light output from the first optical isolator. An optical multiplexer multiplexes an excitation light having an excitation wavelength of 0.8 &mgr;m band with the signal light transferred by the optical fiber, by outputting the excitation light to the optical fiber, and further transfers and outputs the signal light having wavelengths of 1.06 &mgr;m band amplified by induced emission in the optical fiber due to the rare-earth element excited by the excitation light. Further, a second optical isolator makes the signal light outputted from the optical multiplexer pass therethrough in one direction from an input end thereof to an output end thereof, and outputs the signal light as an amplified signal light.

    摘要: There are provided a method and apparatus for printing a print image on a print material by using a print head based on dot information of the print image by causing at least one of the print head and the print material to move to thereby effect relative motion between the print head and the print material at a relative speed dependent on a rotational speed of a DC motor as a drive source. Driving of the DC motor and the print head is controlled for printing of the print image. A distance from a predetermined length start position selected from a front end position, a print start position, and a print end position of the print material to a predetermined length end position at which the relative motion is to be terminated, is set to a predetermined length. Braking of the DC motor is controlled by varying a braking load on the DC motor in dependence on the relative speed and the predetermined length so as to terminate the relative motion at the predetermined length end position.
