摘要:
An NMR imaging method which provides a three-dimensional image representative of the two-dimensional distribution of nuclear spin species resolved by chemical shift or the local spectra resolved by two-dimensional location. After the excitation of nuclear spins and the phase-encoding by application of a field gradient G.sub.y, a periodically inverting field gradient G.sub.x is generated to yield a continuous echo train. The echo train is sampled and separated into data of odd-numbered echoes and data of even-numbered echoes which data are in turn reconstructed into two-dimensional data arrays, respectively. The data thus reconstructed are three-dimensional Fourier-transformed.

An NMR spectroscopic imaging method of obtaining separate spin distribution images for respective spectral components of the spectrum of an NMR signal caused by the chemical shift of nuclides of interest in an object includes providing for a transversal magnetization signal of the object placed in a static magnetic field. A position of the signal in a phase domain is translated in a K-space from the origin thereof. Further, the signal is sampled while rotating a position of the signal in the K-space plural times on a certain circle in the K-space by applying a rotating field gradient, thereby to obtain a group of signal data. Signal data trains each of which is composed of signal data present at the same position on the K-space in the signal data group obtained by the sampling during the plural signal rotations, is subjected to Fourier transformations, respectively, thereby effecting a spectral analysis of the NMR signal.

Disclosed in a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) based inspection apparatus using an SQUID flux meter for detecting a small NMR signal, in which a receiving coil for receiving the NMR signal from an object is connected to a mixer, which mixes a reference high-frequency signal with the NMR signal so that the NMR signal is reduced to a low-frequency signal having a differential component of frequencies of both signals, and the low-frequency signal is applied to the input coil of the SQUID flux meter so that it is converted into a voltage signal. The mixer circuit includes Schottky diodes operative at a liquid helium temperature or Josephson junctions, and the portions of apparatus from the reception coil up to the SQUID flux meter are operated in a superconductive state at a liquid helium temperature.

Method for measuring the time dependence of an oscillating field gradient and representatively its integral function with respect to time for imaging method using the field gradient such as rapid chemical shift imaging method echo planar method, etc. A uniform specimen is placed within a coil of an NMR device, in which nuclear spins are excited; a phase encoding field gradient is applied thereto; and signals are sampled under application of the field gradient to be measured. These steps are repeated and an integral function of the field gradient with respect to time is obtained by using the peak position in the series of data obtained by this repetition.

A terminal device notifies a base station device about control information associated with a receive quality of the terminal device. The base station device performs data modulation on a plurality of pieces of transmit data for the terminal device, by using a plurality of different data modulation schemes one by one, based on the control information, and spatially multiplexes the plurality of pieces of transmit data after the data modulation over a single wireless resource and transmits a spatially multiplexed signal. The terminal device receives the signal with the plurality of pieces of transmit data spatially multiplexed, and detects desirable transmit data from the receive signal, based on a first channel matrix which represents channel state information between the base station device and the terminal device and a second channel matrix in which the first channel matrix is multiplied by a transform matrix. Accordingly, an adaptive modulation technology is applied even to MIMO spatial multiplexing transmission using a LR technology, and hence a wireless communication system and so forth that can contribute to improvement in frequency utilization efficiency can be provided.

The base station apparatus acquires channel state information of the plurality of mobile station apparatuses, based on any one of a plurality of different channel state information formats, and, separately precodes data signals addressed to the plurality of mobile station apparatuses based on the channel state information, and spatially multiplexes and transmits the precoded signals. The mobile station apparatus receives the precoded signals and detects a desired data signal from the multiplexed signals addressed to mobile station apparatuses, based on the channel state information. With this scheme, it is possible to realize a new spatial multiplexing technology that enables a plurality of mobile station apparatuses using different CSI feedback schemes to be spatially multiplexed on the same wireless resource in the downlink MU-MIMO transmission.

A wireless communication system in which a base station apparatus having a plurality of transmission antennas and one or more terminal apparatuses communicate with each other is provided with at least two methods of a first feedback method and a second feedback method regarding propagation path information at the time of reception. In accordance with a communication condition between the base station apparatus and the terminal apparatus, or the function of the terminal apparatus, the terminal apparatus performs feedback by one of the two methods of the first feedback method and the second feedback method. The base station apparatus performs spatial multiplexing transmission on the basis of the propagation path information that has been fed back. Thus, in a system in which CSI is fed back for MIMO transmission, desired transmission characteristics can be efficiently obtained.
