Abstract:
The magnetic brush development apparatus for developing a latent electrostatic image on a photoconductive material by a magnetic brush formed on a development sleeve comprises a hopper whose outlet for supplying one-component type magnetic developer to the development sleeve is positioned in proximity to the surface of the development sleeve, and a developer detecting apparatus comprising a light emitting element and a light receiving element is positioned in proximity to the outlet of the hopper and the surface of the development sleeve. The light emitting element and the light receiving element are positioned so as to hold therebetween a transparent container for allowing the developer to pass therethrough.
Abstract:
In an image processing apparatus, a plurality of images and a page allocation area including a plurality of sections are displayed. The allocation unit determines which one of the images is to be allocated to which one of the sections and allocates the images to the sections, and a preview image generating unit generates a preview image of the page allocation area based on allocation made by the allocation unit, and displays the preview image on the screen.
Abstract:
Disclosed herewith is a radio communication apparatus capable of selecting proper one of plural communication modes such as a MIMO communication system so as to obtain a higher communication rate within a range in which chain retransmission occurrence is prevented. The MIMO system deciding section of the transmitter unit decides a proper MIMO system with reference to the CQI value demultiplexed by a demultiplexer and the AMC table controlling section changes the MCS value step by step according to the transmission count and the result (success/failure) of the communication. Furthermore, the AMC table controlling section updates the mean rate in the measured rate table when the subject data is received successfully or when the transmission count reaches the maximum value.
Abstract:
An information searching method to be implemented in a computer includes accepting a first character string from characters or a character string in a reading or inspecting document that is displayed on a display unit, acquiring a second character string from index information for searching the reading or inspecting document, based on identification information of the reading or inspecting document, and executing a search based on the first character string and the second character string.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an image former for forming an unfixed toner image on a recording material, and a fixer for fixing the unfixed toner image on the recording material. The fixer includes a rotatable member for forming a fixing nip for nipping and feeding the recording material, and a cleaner, movable toward and away from the rotatable member, for cleaning the rotatable member. The apparatus is operable in a blankless image formation mode for forming the toner image without a blank at least at one of a leading end and a trailing end of the recording material. The cleaner contacts the rotatable member when a portion of the rotatable member in a blankless range at the leading end or the trailing end of the recording material reaches a position where the portion opposes the cleaner.
Abstract:
Provided is a bit interleaved coded modulation-iterative decoding (BICM-ID) technique suffering a small loss in a transfer rate. A BICM-ID technique allowing a decoder to treat a small processing quantity is also provided. Encoding is carried out according to a code based on an iterative code. Encoded bits are reordered during interleaving processing, subjected to multi-valued modulation through extended mapping, and then transmitted. The extended mapping includes number-of-bits thinning processing of thinning l bits into m bits (m
Abstract:
In order to accomplish efficient communication of data between a base station and a plurality of mobile terminals, particular orthogonal codes are transmitted from the mobile stations to the base station as alert signals indicating the presence of data to be transmitted. The base station checks whether particular orthogonal codes are contained in the alert signals, and when the particular orthogonal codes are detected in the alert signals, information representing the detected orthogonal codes and the schedules for transmitting the data from the mobile terminals to the base station are transmitted from the base station to the mobile terminals as an alert response to the alert signals. When the information representing the orthogonal codes used for the alert signals are contained in the alert response transmitted from the base station to the mobile terminals, the data waiting to be transmitted is transmitted from the mobile terminals to the base station according the data transmission schedules in the alert response.
Abstract:
The image data processing apparatus includes a storage unit to store image data having a process setting. The image data processing apparatus includes a selection screen display unit to display the one or more image data stored in the storage unit and to display a selection screen to select whether to use a process content associated with image data selected from the displayed image data if the one segment of image data is used. The image data processing apparatus includes a display control unit to display, on the display device, a preview image reflecting the process content based on the associated process content.
Abstract:
A practical long door, particularly for a four-passenger cope vehicle, is realized to allow passengers in the back seat to get in or out while the passengers in the front seat remain seated. It is also an object that the door solves a difficulty caused by Patent Reference 4, which difficult is that when passengers in the front and back seats are required to get in or out, the passengers in one of the front and back seats cannot get in or out unless the passengers in the other of the front and back seats first get in or out and the door is opened one time and then reopened after the passengers have gotten in or out.There are intermediate member standing between a door and a car body, first connection means in which the door and the intermediate member are connected to enable rotational or horizontal motion, and second connection means in which the intermediate member and the car body are detachably connected. Control means drives the second connection means located at the front end or the back end of the door when the front or back part of the door is opened, so that the connection between the intermediate member and the car body is released and the remaining second connection means, the intermediate member connected to that means, and the first connection means cooperate to support the weight of the door.
