A mobile phone includes a processor and a touch detector configured to detect a touch position on a display. When the touch position is moved, the processor moves a cursor position along a path obtained by increasing a path of the touch position, and displays a cursor at the cursor position. When the touch position is no longer detected in a state in which the cursor position is on the display, the processor performs processing allocated to the cursor position concerning a home screen. The processor displays a notification list screen on the display based on movement of the cursor position out of the display before the touch position is no longer detected. When the touch position is no longer detected, the processor performs processing allocated to the cursor position concerning the notification list screen.

A water immersion detection unit detects that an electronic device has been immersed in water. If it is detected that the electronic device has been immersed in water, a salt detection unit measures the salt concentration. A processor makes a determination whether or not the electronic device has been immersed in seawater based on the salt concentration. The processor determines whether or not the electronic device should be washed in water based on a result of the determination whether or not the electronic device has been immersed in seawater. The processor causes a display to display a warning if it is determined that the electronic device should be washed in water.

Electronic device

A mobile terminal device and methods are disclosed. A casing has a plurality of surfaces. A display module is provided on a first surface of the casing and displays a screen including an object. A first detection module is provided to overlap at least part of the display module and detects an operation performed on the display module. A second detection module is provided on a second surface opposite to the first surface and detects a movement operation for moving the screen. A control module cuts out at least a partial region including the object from the screen and moves the cut region according to the movement operation, when the movement operation has been detected.

A mobile terminal device and methods are disclosed. A display module is provided on a first surface of the casing. A first detection module is provided to cover the display module and detects a user's operation. A second detection module is provided on a second surface opposed to the first surface and detects a user's operation. A lock control module sets a lock function for preventing the user's wrong operation. The lock control module releases the setting of the lock function, if the lock function is set and if the first detection module has detected a first operation. The lock control module releases the setting of the lock function, if the lock function is set and if the second detection module has detected a second operation.

In the case of setting a transmission weight to a transmitted signal, when there exists a second known signal which is received by a plurality of antennas after a first known signal used for calculation of the transmission weight and is transmitted with a transmission frequency band different from the first known signal, a transmission weight processing unit of a weight processing unit corrects the transmission weight by use of a delay amount of reception timing concerning the second known signal. Then, the transmission weight processing unit sets the corrected transmission weight to a transmitted signal.

Communication apparatus and communication method

A detection section () of a communication device () includes a correlation calculation section for calculating correlation between a known TCCH symbol pattern and a demodulated complex symbol pattern received by a reception section () in each of a last symbol period in one sub-slot and subsequent one symbol period and a reception state acquisition section for obtaining, based on a result of the calculation in the correlation calculation section, a delay amount of a timing of receiving the signal from a communication partner device.

A second phase rotation unit rotates a signal equalized by an equalizer by a phase error detected by a second phase error detection unit. A decision unit partitions a phase plane into a plurality of sub-areas in accordance with phases to which CCK modulated signals are assigned. The decision unit identifies a sub-area corresponding to an output signal from the second phase rotation unit, and thereby converts the output signal from the second phase rotation unit into a value corresponding to the identified sub-area. An FWT transform unit subjects the value resulting from conversion in the decision unit to FWT computation so as to output a Walsh transform value FWT. A maximum value searching unit receives 64 Walsh transform values FWT and selects one Walsh transform value by referring to the magnitude thereof.

A cellular phone in the form of a shell downloads and reproduces encrypted content data distributed from a distribution server. The cellular phone includes a detection unit detecting whether its casing in the form of the shell is open/closed. If with the cellular phone currently downloading or reproducing encrypted content data its casing in the form of the shell is closed, a controller controls a power supply unit to supply power required for completing the download process or the reproduction process. Thus if the casing is closed the cellular phone still can complete the download or reproduction process. Thus with the casing having been closed the cellular phone can download or reproduce data.

A phase rotation unit rotates the phase of a digital received signal in accordance with a correction signal from a correction determination unit. An FWT computation unit subjects a CCK modulated signal to FWT computation and outputs Walsh transform values FWT. A maximum value searching unit receives Walsh transform values FWT and selects one of them by referring to the magnitude thereof. In accordance with the selected Walsh transform value FWT, the maximum value searching unit outputs a &#x3c6;signal and a &#x3c6; component signal, the &#x3c6;signal corresponding to the signal prior to &#x3c6;differential detection and the &#x3c6; component signal being a combination of &#x3c6;through &#x3c6;. A &#x3c6;demodulation unit subjects the &#x3c6;signal to differential detection so as to generate &#x3c6;. A second phase error detection unitdetects a phase error in accordance with an output signal from the &#x3c6;demodulation unit.

In a coordinates detecting apparatus including a tablet for detecting X and Y coordinates and a correcting circuit for correcting the X and Y coordinates detected from the tablet, a parameter used for correcting the X coordinate and a parameter used for correcting the Y coordinate are adjustable independent from each other. More specifically, time constant of a CR filter circuit for the X coordinate and time constant of the CR filter circuit for the Y coordinate can be adjusted independent from each other. Further, numbers of A/D conversion, threshold values, number of samples and so on for the X and Y coordinates can be set independent from each other. As a result, in the coordinates detecting apparatus, noises in X and Y coordinates can be optimally removed, allowing detection of X and Y coordinates with high accuracy.
