A FM-CW radar system comprises a frequency modulated continuous wave digital generator that produces both in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) outputs to orthogonally oriented transmitter antennas. A linearly polarized beam is output from a switched antenna array that allows a variety of I-and-Q pairs of bowtie antennas to be alternately connected to the transmitter and receiver. The receiver inputs I-and-Q signals from another bowtie antenna in the array and mixes these with samples from the transmitter. Such synchronous detection produces I-and-Q beat frequency products that are sampled by dual analog-to-digital converters (ADC's). The digital samples receive four kinds of compensation, including frequency-and-phase, wiring delay, and fast Fourier transform (FFT). The compensated samples are then digitally converted by an FFT-unit into time-domain signals. Such can then be processed conventionally for range information to the target that has returned the FM-CW echo signal.

In consequence, at the time of mounting and removing the filter accommodating cylinder (37), the falling-off of the gasket (42) can be prevented, and, for example, an inspection operation, a cleaning operation and the like of an accommodated particulate matter removing filter (41) can be easily performed.

An air-fuel ratio control apparatus for an internal combustion engine, implementing integral correction of the air-fuel ratio by an integral term edfii obtained by multiplying an integrated difference between a target air fuel ratio and the actual air-fuel ratio by an integral gain, wherein the upper and lower limit values of the integral term are set based on the actual intake air amount and the actual air-fuel ratio. This limits the range of the integral term edfii to prevent it from being set at an excessively high or low level removed from the realities of the intake air amount and the air-fuel ratio, and thereby to prevent erroneous air-fuel ratio correction by the integral term.

In a lock device of a sliding mechanism, a pair of locking claws provided on a moving member are brought into resilient engagement with locking grooves of a locking groove group, whereby downward sliding of the moving member is permitted but upward sliding thereof is locked. The distance between the locking claws is longer than distance between the locking grooves, so that the moving member becomes locked against upward sliding at an interval smaller than the distance between the locking grooves. Thus, the moving member adapted to slide in one (downward) direction along a guide rail can be reliably locked against movement in the opposite (upward) direction at a very small interval.

In this manner, since the laser oscillation sections 4a and 10a are bonded together by virtue of SOGs 3a having a small thickness, it is allowed to form a semiconductor laser device with a small interval between light emitting points.

Sequences that respectively comprise different data are transmitted via a transfer medium, the transfer quality being detected in accordance with the transmitted sequences. Accordingly, the sequences to be transmitted are assigned to several chronologically sequential stages, the sequences that are assigned to one stage having a pre-definable interval in terms of the data transfer rate. The following steps are executed cyclically: a) transmission of at least part of the sequences that are assigned to the first stage and selection of an interval that is situated between two transmitted sequences, in accordance with the determined transfer quality; b) transmission of at least part of the sequences that lie in the selected interval and that are assigned to the subsequent stage. Thus an optimal data transfer rate can be accurately determined for the transmission of information via the transfer medium.

In a semiconductor device in which a source / drain and a wiring layer are connected to each other through an associated buried conductive layer, a separation width of the buried conductive layer on a upper portion of a gate electrode is made small to manufacture a highly reliable and fine MOS transistor. After a silicon oxide film has been formed on a first polycrystalline silicon film to be aligned with a width of a gate electrode, a second polycrystalline silicon film formed on the whole surface of a substrate is selectively etched away so as to be left only on both side faces of a pattern of the silicon oxide film. Thereafter, the first polycrystalline silicon film is selectively etched away with both the silicon oxide film and the second polycrystalline silicon film as an etching mask so that the first polycrystalline film is separated with a width which is smaller than that of the gate electrode by a width of a pattern of the second polycrystalline silicon film. As a result, the buried conductive layer including the first and second polycrystalline silicon films is formed.
