Latest Patents

Ikeda is credited with 1 patent: “Radio Telephone and Independently Controlled Booster.” The invention concerns equipment comprising a portable radiotelephone and a booster. The portable phone’s output level is set according to a control signal from a base station, while an automatic gain control circuit in the booster amplifies that output using a preset amplification factor. By controlling the phone and booster amplification independently, the system allows the booster to be connected to a portable radiotelephone that was not specifically designed for booster use.
