In a semiconductor device, via holes are formed around a chip buried in a package, and conductor layers are respectively formed to be connected to one end and another end of the conductor filled in the individual via hole. Portions (pad portions) of the conductor layers which correspond to the conductors are exposed from protective films, or external connection terminals are bonded to the pad portions. The chip is mounted with flip-chip technology so that at least some of electrode terminals thereof are electrically connected to the conductor layers.

A finger sensing device includes a finger sensing area, and a processor cooperating therewith for reducing a number of possible match combinations between a sensed finger data set and each of a plurality of enrolled finger data sets. The processor may reduce the number of possible match combinations by generating a plurality of overlap hypotheses for each possible match combination, generating a co-occurrence matrix score based upon the plurality of overlap hypotheses for each possible match combination, and comparing the co-occurrence matrix scores to thereby reduce the number of possible match combinations.

A filling degree gauge for measuring and displaying a residual filling potential of a target area, such as a container, being filled through a target, such as an open top, with goods by a goods carrier, such as a discharge spout, of an agricultural vehicle, such as a harvester, has a 3D sensor for observing at least a part of the target area including at least a part of the target, a data control system and a visual display unit. The data control system operates to provide on the visual display unit a visual display indicating residual filling potential by indicating the current one of at least three different levels of residual filling potential.

The vehicle includes electronic control units, and performs an authentication process to judge the validity of an external device outside the vehicle, e.g. a maintenance device, which tries accessing the electronic control unit. Based on the result of the judgment, the vehicle decides a range in which the maintenance device can access the electronic control unit. In the authentication, e.g. both the maintenance device and the vehicle use authentication microcomputers respectively. According to the invention, an external device outside the vehicle can be inhibited from making an unwanted access to the electronic control unit of the vehicle.

A space-time-frequency domain based information feedback method, system, user equipment and base station for wireless transmission technical fields is provided. The user equipment measures and evaluates quality of wireless transmission downlinks in MIMO system, obtains rank, precoding matrix index and channel quality indicator information in the wireless transmission downlinks, processes information of the wireless transmission downlink respectively in space domain, frequency domain and time domain by using space selectivity, frequency selectivity and time selectivity characteristics of a channel, and feeds back downlink information to the base station through uplinks by using feedback schemes. The base station optimizes a transmitter according to feedback information from the user equipment.

An administrator is required to prepare in advance LU as a pool area when a user storage area is set to a storage. LU configuration is generally cumbersome and it is not easy for a general user to configure it. A pool manager 1 and a storage 1 setting utility in a management console 1 communicate with a program in a storage 1. The storage 1 sets a pool area having a designated capacity. In response to a volume forming request from the management console 1, the storage 1 sets a designated volume by setting the designated volume as a used capacity of the set pool area. When a volume is formed, a policy is designated to select a storage area having a corresponding attribute from the pool area.

The robustness of hearing aid devices in terms of electromagnetic disturbances and chemically aggressive surroundings should be improved. For this purpose, provision is made to equip a hearing aid apparatus with optical microphones. Since no metal parts must be used for these optical micro-phones, corrosion can be largely excluded. Furthermore, no EMC problems occur as a result of the optical signal processing.

Each of a display panel and a display device includes a display region in which an image with uniform display quality is displayed and a curved line can be displayed in the contour. The display panel includes a shielding member and a plurality of pixels arrayed in a display region, wherein the shielding member includes a shielding curved portion having a curved planar shape, and the shielding curved portion shields the plurality of pixels to form a curved contour of the display region.

An active matrix type display panel is a hold type display panel which has a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix form, and holds and displays an electrical signal pixel by pixel for a predetermined time. A frame rate conversion circuit converts a video signal having a first vertical frequency (60 Hz) into a video signal having a second vertical frequency (120 Hz) which is m/n-fold (wherein m is an integer of 2 or more, n is an integer of 1 or more, and conditions of m>n are satisfied) of the first vertical frequency. A time base emphasizing circuit subjects an output from the frame rate conversion circuit to time base emphasis. A drive circuit displays the video signal having the second vertical frequency in a display panel.

A stream generation apparatus of the present invention is a stream generation apparatus which generates a stream including coded pictures and a command for managing a buffer which holds a decoded picture, the command being added to one of the coded pictures as a reference picture. It includes a judging unit which judges whether or not the coded picture to which the command is added is skipped at the time of trick-play, an adding unit which adds, in the case where the coded picture is judged to be skipped, repetition information indicating the same contents as the command to another coded picture that follows, in decoding order, the coded picture judged to be skipped and that is not skipped at the time of the trick-play, and a generating unit which generates the stream including the coded pictures, the command and the repetition information.

The invention relates to a signal processing method which optimizes the bit error rate under pragmatic conditions. The signalling method is optimally matched to the radio channel, variable with time, in rapid sequence by means of linear operations. Uplink and downlink transmission sides are determined by an excess of antennae on the downlink transmission side. The estimations of the channel matrix in the one transmission direction, necessary for the matching of the transmitter, can, in the absence of common-channel distortions with the condition of channel reciprocity, be directly obtained from the estimations for the other transmission direction. By a suitable linear combination of the transmission signals and, optionally, also the received signals, an error-free bi-directional transmission of data streams can be achieved in Rayleigh and Rice channels with significantly lower transmission powers than in purely receiver-side linear signal processing.

In a bearing detachment prevention structure provided in a rotation pair portion of a link mechanism, play filling-up and pre-load adjustment for the bearing are realized with ease. As a means for therefor, there is provided a link actuating device having three or more sets of link mechanisms in each of which end link members are rotatably connected to input and output members respectively arranged on the input and output sides, the respective end link members on the input and output sides being rotatably connected to intermediate link members to form four rotation pair portions, the input and output sides being geometrically the same with respect to a cross section in a central portion of each link mechanism, in which each rotation pair portion of the link mechanisms has a bearing structure consisting of two bearings, with a play filling-up means for regulating axial movement of the two bearings being provided in the rotation pair portions. Further, by appropriately determining the configuration of each component forming the link mechanisms, interference between the components during operation of the link mechanisms is prevented. As a means therefor, a beveled portion is formed on the link side peripheral end edge portion of each input member, whereby interference between the end link member and the outer peripheral surface of the rotation pair portion of each intermediate link member is prevented.
