This method of producing a negative electrode includes a step of adjusting a heat transfer coefficient between a leg portion and a fixing portion so that at least one of leg portions and the other leg portions become different in the heat transfer coefficient by deforming the plurality of fixing portions by applying pressure to the plurality of fixing portions from the outside thereof to fix the leg portions to the fixing portions.

An RFID reader/writer performs a radio communication with an RFID tag. An antenna for tag communication used in the RFID reader/writer is a beam scanning antenna that can perform scanning with the beam of a transmitted radio wave. The beam has a high directivity in a certain scanning direction. The scanning with the beam is performed so that a plane including the certain scanning direction intersects with a floor surface as a reflecting surface on which the strongest reflected wave is generated.

A direction estimating section estimates the incoming direction of a radio wave from an RFID tag in each of antennas. A position calculating section calculates the position of the RFID tag on the basis of the incoming direction of the radio wave estimated in the direction estimating section.

Provided are an intruding object detecting apparatus (a radio wave sensor) capable of setting an arbitrary detection region, an apparatus for setting the detection region and a setting processe. An intruding object detecting apparatusis installed in a corner of a room, a coordinate system is defined in which a location of the intruding object detecting apparatusis an origin thereof, and coordinates are a distance r from the intruding object detecting apparatus and a scanning angle &#x3b8; of a transmission antenna/reception antenna of the intruding object detecting apparatus, and a state corresponding to the coordinate system is stored (b) in a storage means; thereby enabling the detection regionof the intruding object detecting apparatus can be arbitrarily set. Moreover, the setting can be performed with ease using a reflector or a transmitter, or alternatively, using a setting apparatus constituted of the reflector and the transmitter, combined.

A plurality of primary detection regions A to I are scanned by switching a beam width and a beam direction of an antenna. The primary detection regions A to I are formed such that one detection region overlaps at least one of other detection regions. A small region (any one of secondary detection region () to ()) corresponding to a region provided by excluding a region corresponding to a sum of set of the detection regions where a detection object was not detected, from a region corresponding to a product set of the primary detection regions where the object was detected is specified as a bearing in which the object exists, based on detection results of the respective primary detection regions.

Object detector and object detecting method

Beams are irradiated in three directions by switching an irradiation direction of a mainlobe of an antenna by stages, and an echo is received from a detection object obtained in the mainlobe or a sidelobe in each irradiation direction. Then, reflection power intensity in each irradiation direction is found from the received echo, and pattern of relative variation of the reflection power intensity (power intensity pattern) in each irradiation direction is generated. Meanwhile, a detection region is divided into seven bearings 'c' to 'i' and a power intensity pattern when an object exists in each bearing is previously stored as a reference pattern in each bearing. Then, the bearing in which the detection object exists is specified by comparing the power intensity pattern obtained from the received echo with the reference pattern in each bearing.
