Data transmission device and data transmission method {Method and device for data transmission}
[2] In recent years, the development of a data transmission apparatus which is portable and can transmit and receive information by wireless communication has been remarkably progressed. Among them, portable terminals used in portable telephone systems and PHSs are rapidly spreading.
[3] When the portable terminal transmits information, particularly when continuously transmitting packetized data, the internal temperature of the portable terminal rises in accordance with the temperature rise of the internal circuit due to data transmission processing which is frequently performed.
[4] In a conventional data transmission apparatus, in particular, a portable terminal, when the packetized data is continuously transmitted, the distortion at the time of data transmission becomes large due to the above-mentioned rise in internal temperature. Or the gain during data transmission is disturbed. For this reason, in the conventional portable terminal, an increase in the internal temperature adversely affects the control of the power control.
[5] In order to prevent these problems, it is necessary to perform a heat radiation design in consideration of the rise of the internal temperature of the conventional portable terminal. In other words, even when packetized data is transmitted continuously rather than continuously, a design that can withstand continuous transmission is required. Therefore, the conventional portable terminal has a problem that it is difficult to further downsize the case body or the manufacturing cost is high.

[40] EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, embodiment of this invention is described in detail, referring drawings.
[41] The data transfer apparatus to which the present invention is applied controls the data transfer process or the data encoding process in accordance with the detected internal temperature. This data transmission apparatus is a portable terminal such as a cellular phone system, for example, and transmits and receives data by radio. Hereinafter, only the transmission system will be described, and the description of the reception system will be omitted.
[42] 1 is a block diagram showing a specific configuration of a first embodiment of a data transmission device to which the present invention is applied. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[43] The data transmission apparatus 1 includes an input / output circuit 2, a data processing control circuit 3, a baseband signal processing section 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, and temperature detection. The sensor 7 and the temperature monitoring circuit 8 are provided.
[44] The input / output circuit 2 inputs a control signal from the data processing control circuit 3 and outputs it to, for example, an external personal computer (PC) 9. The packetized data is inputted from the PC 9, and the inputted data is supplied to the data processing control circuit 3. The PC 9 may be provided as an information processing circuit or the like inside the data transmission device 1 such as a portable terminal.
[45] The data processing control circuit 3 has a memory for storing packet data therein, and performs flow control and retransmission control of the packet data, and at the same time the data transmission interval input from the temperature monitoring circuit 8 described later. The data transmission interval is determined based on the upper limit value. The operation of the data processing control circuit 3 will be described below.
[46] The data processing control circuit 3 monitors the internal memory state and, when the memory becomes empty, requests new packet data from the information processing apparatus 11 via the input / output circuit 2 and requests a new packet. Store data in memory. When the memory is filled with packet data, the packet data is output to the baseband signal processing circuit 10. If the transmission of the packet data fails, the same packet data is output again to the baseband signal processing circuit 10. If the packet data transmission is successful, the memory is cleared, the new packet data is requested to the information processing apparatus 11 via the input / output circuit 2, and the new packet data from the information processing apparatus 11 is requested. New packet data from the information processing apparatus 11 is stored in the memory.
[47] Further, the data processing control circuit 3 outputs the packet data to the baseband signal processing circuit 10 at a data transmission interval that does not exceed the upper limit of the data transmission interval from the temperature monitoring circuit 8. Data flow and retransmission control are performed.
[48] In this embodiment, the data processing control circuit 3 controls the transmission interval of the packet data based on the information of the upper limit value of the data transmission interval from the temperature monitoring circuit 8, but inputs the temperature information itself. The transmission interval of the packet data may be controlled according to this temperature information. Specifically, this allows the data processing control circuit 3 to control data request commands, ready commands, and the like transmitted via the input / output circuit 2 to the PC 9 in accordance with the temperature information. In step 9), data transmitted to the data processing control circuit 3 via the input / output circuit 2 may be adjusted to control the transmission interval of the packet data.
[49] The baseband signal processing section 4 includes a baseband signal processing circuit 10 and an output control circuit 11. The baseband signal processing circuit 10 generates a baseband signal from data supplied from the data processing control circuit 3 and supplies it to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[50] The output control circuit 11 modulates an RF signal for describing a signal that changes the data processing state in accordance with a data interval to be transmitted in accordance with a value indicating an upper limit of the data transmission interval supplied from the data processing control circuit 3. The circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6 are supplied. For example, the output control circuit 11 uses the signal amplifier 6 when the interval of data to be transmitted by the data processing control circuit 3 is longer than a certain period or when there is no packet data to be transmitted. By performing the bypass operation, the power supply to the signal amplifier 6 is stopped, and a signal for transitioning to the power amplifier state is supplied to the signal amplifier 6.
[51] The RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal supplied from the baseband signal processing circuit 10 to generate an RF (Radio Frequency) signal for transmission on a carrier wave. The RF signal modulation circuit 5 supplies an RF signal to the signal amplifier 6.
[52] In addition, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 is supplied from the output control circuit 11 with a signal that changes the modulation processing state when performing modulation from the baseband signal to the RF signal. The RF signal modulation circuit 5 performs modulation processing in accordance with the signal.
[53] The signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5. The signal amplifier 6 is supplied with a signal which means to change the amplification processing state when amplifying the RF signal from the output control circuit 11. The signal amplifier 6 performs amplification processing in accordance with this signal. The amplified RF signal is transmitted to the outside by radio via the antenna 12. The temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts the detected temperature into an electrical signal and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 8.
[54] The temperature monitoring circuit 8 compares the detected temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 with the target temperature value stored in advance, and determines the upper limit of the data transmission interval. That is, when the temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value, the temperature monitoring circuit 8 raises the upper limit of the transmission interval of data, and the temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is the target. When the temperature is higher than the temperature value, the upper limit value of the data transmission interval is lowered and the control signal indicative of the determined upper limit value is supplied to the data processing control circuit 3.
[55] In the data transmission apparatus 1 provided with each part which functions as mentioned above, the input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[56] In step S1, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 8.
[57] In step S2, the temperature monitoring circuit 8 determines whether or not the temperature value indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value of the temperature previously stored. If the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is lower than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S3 to raise the upper limit of the data transmission interval. On the other hand, when the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is higher than the target temperature value, the flow moves to step S4 to lower the upper limit of the data transmission interval. The data processing control circuit 3 inputs a control signal indicating the upper limit of the transmission interval of data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 8.
[58] In step S5, the data processing control circuit 3 requests new packet data from the PC 9 via the input / output circuit 2.
[59] In step S6, the PC 9 transmits the packetized data to the data processing control circuit 3 via the input / output circuit 2 based on the data request signal.
[60] In step S7, the data processing control circuit 3 determines the transmission interval of the packet data within a range not exceeding the upper limit value, and at this data transmission interval, the packet is transmitted to the baseband signal processing circuit 10 with respect to the baseband signal processing circuit 10. Output the formatted data.
[61] Next, in step S8, the information of the data transmission interval supplied from the data processing control circuit 3 is input to the output control circuit 11.
[62] In step S9, the output control circuit 11 determines whether the transmission interval of packetized data is within a predetermined period. If the packetized data is being transmitted within a certain period, the flow advances to step S12. On the other hand, when the transmission interval of data is longer than a certain period or when there is no packet data to be transmitted, in step S11, the output control circuit 11 stops supplying power to the signal amplifier 6, or the like. Thus, the signal amplifier 6 is made to transition to a rest state.
[63] Next, in step S12, the baseband signal processing circuit 10 generates a baseband signal from data input from the data processing control circuit 3 and supplies it to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[64] In step S13, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input from the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and generates an RF signal for transmission on a carrier wave.
[65] In step S14, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.
[66] As described above, the data transmission device 1 controls the transmission interval of the packetized data so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 to be detected does not exceed the target temperature value set in advance. As a result, the data transmission device 1 is controlled so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed the target temperature value. Therefore, the data transmission device 1 does not need to perform a heat dissipation design in accordance with the maximum value of the heat generation temperature, and it becomes possible to simplify the heat dissipation mechanism. As a result, the data transmission device 1 can be made smaller and lighter in case size, and the cost in manufacturing can be reduced.
[67] In the above-described data transmission apparatus 1, the packet data on the radio is as shown in Figs. 3A and 3B. FIG. 3A shows a packet data transmission method when the data transmission device 1 transmits packet data at the highest frequency and density, and FIG. 3B shows a transmission in which the data transmission device 1 is determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 8. The packet data transmission method at the time of data transmission at the interval is shown.
[68] 3A and 3B, Tb _e represents a state where the buffer 15 provided inside the data processing control circuit 3 is empty, and Tb _f represents a state where the buffer 15 is filled.
[69] When data is transmitted at the highest frequency, as shown in Fig. 3A, the data processing control circuit 3 packetizes at a transmission interval that does not exceed the maximum value of the transmission interval of the data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 8. The data is supplied to the baseband signal processing circuit 10.
[70] That is, when the buffer 15 provided in the data processing control circuit 3 is filled, the data processing control circuit 3 packetizes the data and outputs it as packet data 16a ₁ . On receipt of the packet data 16a ₁ , the data transmission device (not shown) on the receiving side supplies an acknowledgment 17a ₁ to the data transmission device 1 on the transmission side. The data transmission device 1 transmits the packet data 16a ₁ , receives the ACK 17a ₁ from the data transmission device on the receiving side, and then, after _a period n _a , the next packet data 18a ₁ is transmitted. Supply to the input / output circuit.
[71] By the way, when the data transmission device 1 does not receive the ACK 17a ₂ from the data transmission device on the receiving side with respect to the packet data 16a ₂ , the data transmission device ₁ until the ACK 17a ₂ is received. Repeat the retransmission of 16a ₂ ). Upon receiving the ACK 17a ₂ , the data transfer device 1 supplies the next packet data 18a ₂ to the input / output circuit after the period n _a .
[72] On the other hand, when the data transmission device 1 transmits data at any transmission interval n _b not exceeding the upper limit determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 8, as shown in Fig. 3B, the packet data 16b ₁ is transmitted. After receiving the ACK 17b ₁ from the data transmission apparatus on the receiving side, the interval is cleared by the period n _b and the next packet data 18b1 is transmitted.
[73] In this case, when the data transmission device 1 does not receive the ACK 17b ₂ from the data transmission device on the receiving side with respect to the packet data 16b ₂ , the data transmission device 1 does not receive the packet data until the ACK 17b ₂ is received. Repeat the retransmission of (16b ₂ ). Upon receiving the ACK 17b ₂ , the data transmission device 1 clears the interval by the period n ₂ , and supplies the next packet data 18b ₂ to the input / output circuit.
[74] Next, a second embodiment of a data transmission apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.
[75] As a second embodiment according to the present invention, the data transmission device 20 shown in FIG. 4 makes the basic configuration the same as the data transmission device 1 of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, but detects ambient temperature. The point of having an ambient temperature detection circuit 21 differs from that of the data transmission apparatus 1. Therefore, the same components as those of the data transmission apparatus 1 shown in Fig. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[76] The data transmission device 20 includes an input / output circuit 2, a data processing control circuit 3, a baseband signal processing section 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, and temperature detection. A sensor 7, an antenna 12, an ambient temperature detection circuit 21, and a temperature monitoring circuit 22 are provided.
[77] The ambient temperature detection circuit 21 detects the ambient temperature, converts the ambient temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 22.
[78] The temperature monitoring circuit 22 compares the temperature difference between the detected temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the temperature detected by the ambient temperature detection circuit 21 and the target temperature difference stored in advance, and transmits data at intervals. Determine the upper limit of. That is, the temperature monitoring circuit 22 is the upper limit value of the data transmission interval when the temperature difference between the detection temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the ambient temperature detected by the ambient temperature detection circuit 21 is smaller than the target temperature difference. If the value is larger than the target temperature difference, the upper limit value of the data transmission interval is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the data processing control circuit 2.
[79] In the data transmission apparatus 20 which consists of components which function as mentioned above, the input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[80] In step S15, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 22. In addition, the ambient temperature detection circuit 21 detects the ambient temperature, converts the ambient temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 2.
[81] In step S16, the temperature monitoring circuit 22 has a temperature difference between the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the ambient temperature indicated by the electrical signal input from the ambient temperature detection circuit 21. Detect.
[82] In step S17, the temperature monitoring circuit 22 determines whether the temperature difference is smaller than the target temperature difference stored in advance. If the temperature difference is smaller than the target temperature difference, the flow advances to step S18 to raise the upper limit of the data transmission interval. On the other hand, when the temperature difference is larger than the target temperature difference, the flow advances to step S19 to lower the upper limit of the data transmission interval.
[83] In step S20, the data processing control circuit 3 requests new packet data from the PC 9 via the input / output circuit 2.
[84] In step S21, the PC 9 transmits the packetized data to the data processing control circuit 3 via the input / output circuit 2 based on this data request signal.
[85] In step S22, the data processing control circuit 3 determines the transmission interval of packet data within a range not exceeding the upper limit value, and packetizes the baseband signal processing circuit 10 at this data transmission interval. Output the generated data.
[86] Next, in step S23, the information of the data transmission interval supplied from the data processing control circuit 3 is input to the output control circuit 11.
[87] In step S24, the output control circuit 11 determines whether the transmission interval of the packetized data is within a predetermined period. It is determined whether the packetized data is within a certain period. If the packetized data is being transmitted within a certain period, the flow advances to step S26. On the other hand, when the transmission interval of data is longer than a certain period or when there is no packet data to be transmitted, in step S26, the output control circuit 11 stops supplying power to the signal amplifier 6, or the like. Thus, the signal amplifier 6 is made to transition to a rest state.
[88] Next, in step S27, the baseband signal processing circuit 10 encodes the data input from the data processing control circuit 3 into a baseband signal and supplies it to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[89] In step S28, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input from the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and generates an RF signal for transmission on a carrier wave.
[90] In step S29, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.
[91] As described above, the data transmission device 20 controls the transmission interval of the packetized data so that the difference between the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 and the ambient temperature does not exceed a preset target temperature difference. As a result, the data transmission device 20 is controlled so that the difference between the ambient temperature and the internal temperature does not exceed the target temperature difference. Therefore, the data transmission device 20 can maintain the internal temperature at an appropriate temperature in accordance with the ambient temperature from above, where the heat dissipation mechanism or the temperature control mechanism can be simplified. In addition, the data transmission device 20 not only makes the case body size more compact and lighter, but also reduces the manufacturing cost.
[92] Next, a third embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7.
[93] As a third embodiment, the data transmission device 30 shown in FIG. 6 has the same basic configuration as that of the data transmission device 1 of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, but the target temperature value corresponding to the date and time is stored. The point of providing the calendar memory circuit 31 differs from that of the data transfer apparatus 1 of the first embodiment. In addition, about the structure similar to the data transmission apparatus 1 shown before in FIG. 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. The solid line in the figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of control signals.
[94] The data transmission device 30 includes an input / output circuit 2, a data processing control circuit 3, a baseband signal processing section 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, and temperature detection. A sensor 7, an antenna 12, a calendar memory circuit 31, and a temperature monitoring circuit 32 are provided.
[95] The calendar memory circuit 31 stores a target temperature value corresponding to the date and time, selects the target temperature value at that time from the date and time, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 32.
[96] The temperature monitoring circuit 32 compares the detected temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 with the target temperature value selected by the calendar memory circuit 31, and determines the upper limit of the data transmission interval. That is, the temperature monitoring circuit 32 draws an upper limit of the data transmission interval when the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value selected by the calendar memory circuit 31. In the case where the temperature is higher than the target temperature value, the upper limit value of the transmission interval of data is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the data processing control circuit 2.
[97] In the data transmission apparatus 30 which consists of components which function as mentioned above, input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[98] In step S30, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 32. The calendar memory circuit 31 supplies the target temperature value corresponding to the date and time to the temperature monitoring circuit 32.
[99] In step S31, the temperature monitoring circuit 32 stores the temperature value indicated by the electrical signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 in the calendar memory circuit 31, and selects a target temperature value corresponding to the date and time. It is determined whether or not lower than. If the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is lower than the target temperature value, the flow advances to step S32 to raise the upper limit of the data transmission interval. On the other hand, when the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is higher than the target temperature value, the flow proceeds to step S33, where the upper limit of the data transmission interval is reduced.
[100] In step S34, the data processing control circuit 3 requests new packet data from the PC 9 via the input / output circuit 2.
[101] In step S35, the PC 9 transmits the packetized data to the data processing control circuit 3 via the input / output circuit 2 based on the data request signal.
[102] In step S36, the data processing control circuit 3 determines the transmission interval of the packet data within a range not exceeding the upper limit value, and the packet is transmitted to the baseband signal processing circuit 10 at this data transmission interval. Output the formatted data.
[103] Next, in step S37, the information of the data transmission interval supplied from the data processing control circuit 3 is input to the output control circuit 11.
[104] The output control circuit 11 determines whether the transmission interval of the packetized data is performed within a predetermined period in step S38. If the packetized data is being transmitted within a certain period, the process proceeds to step S41. On the other hand, if the data transmission interval becomes longer than a certain period, in step S40, the output control circuit 11 stops the power supply to the signal amplifier 6 and pauses the signal amplifier 6, for example. Transition to state.
[105] Next, in step S41, the baseband signal processing circuit 10 encodes the data input from the data processing control circuit 3 into the baseband signal and supplies it to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[106] In step S42, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input from the baseband signal processing circuit 10 and generates an RF signal for transmission on a carrier wave.
[107] In step S43, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.
[108] As described above, the data transmission device 30 controls the transmission interval of the packetized data so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed the target temperature value selected corresponding to the date and time. As a result, the data transmission device 30 is controlled so that the internal temperature does not exceed the target temperature value determined corresponding to the date and time. Therefore, the data transmission device 30 can maintain the internal temperature at an appropriate temperature in accordance with the temperature information of the date and time from the above, where the heat dissipation mechanism or the temperature control mechanism can be simplified. In addition, the data transmission device 30 can realize a smaller size and a lighter weight of the case body size, and the cost in manufacturing can be reduced.
[109] As a fourth embodiment, the data transmission device 40 shown in Fig. 8 has the same basic configuration as the data transmission device 1 shown in Fig. 1, but the data processing control circuit 41 is connected to the temperature monitoring circuit 42. The point of controlling the transmission bit rate of data differs from the data transmission apparatus 1 in accordance with a value indicating an upper limit of the supplied data transmission bit rate. Therefore, the same components as those of the data transmission apparatus 1 shown in Fig. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[110] The data transmission device 40 includes an input / output circuit 2, a baseband signal processor 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, a temperature detection sensor 7, and an antenna 12. ), A data processing control circuit 41, a temperature monitoring circuit 42, and a baseband signal processing section 49, a baseband signal processing circuit 43, and an output control circuit 11.
[111] The data processing control circuit 41 supplies the control signal supplied from the data processing control circuit 41 to the external PC 9. The data processing control circuit 41 inputs the packetized data in the PC 9 via the input / output circuit 2.
[112] The baseband signal processing section 4 includes a baseband signal processing circuit 43 and an output control circuit 11. The baseband signal processing circuit 43 inputs a control signal from a temperature monitoring circuit 42 to be described later. The control signal is supplied to the data processing control circuit 41. The baseband signal processing circuit 43 encodes the data supplied from the data processing control circuit 41 into the baseband signal and supplies it to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[113] The temperature monitoring circuit 42 compares the detected temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 with the target temperature value stored in advance, and determines the upper limit of the data transmission bit rate. That is, when the temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value, the temperature monitoring circuit 42 raises the upper limit of the data transmission bit rate, and the temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7. Is lower than the target temperature value, the upper limit value of the data transmission bit rate is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the baseband signal processing circuit 43.
[114] In general, when data is transmitted by the CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) method, for example, when the transmission bit rate is transmitted at 1/2, the energy required for transmission per unit bit is reduced. Since it doubles, the same error rate can be obtained even when the transmission power is 1/2. Therefore, the transmission power required to obtain the same error rate ends smaller as the transmission bit rate is lower.
[115] In the data transmission apparatus 40 provided with each part functioning as mentioned above, the input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[116] In step S44, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 8.
[117] In step S45, the temperature monitoring circuit 8 determines whether the temperature value indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value of the temperature previously stored. If the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is lower than the target temperature value, the flow advances to step S46 to raise the upper limit of the data transmission bit rate. On the other hand, if the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is higher than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S47 to derive the upper limit of the data transmission bit rate.

[120] In step S50, the data processing control circuit 41 determines the data transmission bit rate, notifies the baseband signal processing circuit 43, and simultaneously packetizes the data packetized with respect to the baseband signal processing circuit 43. Outputs
[121] Next, in step S51, the output control circuit 11 receives information about the data transmission bit rate supplied from the data processing control circuit 41.
[122] In step S52, the output control circuit 11 determines whether the transmission bit rate at the instant of packetized data is larger or smaller than which threshold. If the instantaneous transmission bit rate is larger than the threshold, in step S53, a signal having a meaning of changing the output power is supplied to the signal amplifier 6 in accordance with the instantaneous transmission bit rate of the packetized data. In addition, when the bit rate of the packetized data is reduced at the moment, the signal amplifier 6 is supplied with a signal meaning to reduce the output power.
[123] On the other hand, if the transmission bit rate of the data is less than the threshold, in step S54, the output control circuit 11 stops the power supply to the signal amplifier 6, for example, to stop the signal amplifier 6. Transition to
[124] Next, in step S55, the baseband signal processing circuit 43 receives the baseband signal obtained by the baseband processing of the packetized data input from the data processing control circuit 41 and the RF signal modulation circuit 5. To feed.

In FIG. 3, Tb _e represents the empty state of the buffer 15 provided in the data processing control circuit 41, and Tb _f represents the state in which the buffer 15 is filled.
[128] When data is transmitted at the highest frequency and density, as shown in Fig. 3A, the data processing control circuit 41 inputs a control signal indicating the maximum value of the transmission bit rate of the data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 8; Then, the packetized data is output in accordance with this control signal.
[129] On the other hand, when the data transmission device 40 transmits data at any transmission bit rate determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 42, as shown in Fig. 3C, the data processing circuit 41 in the temperature monitoring circuit 42 When a control signal indicating the upper limit value of the determined transmission bit rate of the data is input, the data transmission bit rate is determined within the range not exceeding the upper limit value of this data transmission bit rate, and the baseband signal processing circuit 43 is notified. Packetized data is output to the baseband signal processing circuit 43. The data transmission device 40 transmits the packet data 45a ₁ to a data transmission device (not shown) on the receiving side, and receives the ACK 46a ₁ from the data transmission device on the receiving side. Packet data 47a ₁ is transmitted.

Repeat the retransmission of 45a ₂ ). When the data transmission device 40 receives the ACK 46a ₂ , the data transmission device 40 transmits the next packet data 46a ₂ .
[131] The transmission bit rate is determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 42 in accordance with the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, and when the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 is higher than the target temperature value, the transmission bit rate becomes large and the target temperature value. If lower, the transmission bit rate becomes small. That is, when it is lower than the target temperature value of the signal amplifier 6, the data transmission apparatus 1 transmits packet data at high density, and when it is higher than the target temperature value, it transmits packet data at low density.
[132] As described above, the data transmission device 40 transmits a signal to the PC 9 to control the transmission bit rate of the packetized data so that the detected temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed a preset target temperature value. To feed. As a result, the data transmission device 40 is controlled so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed the target temperature value. Therefore, the data transmission device 40 does not need to perform a heat dissipation design in accordance with the maximum value of the heat generation temperature, and it becomes possible to simplify the heat dissipation mechanism.

In addition, when the bit rate of the packetized data is reduced at the moment, the signal amplifier 6 is supplied with a signal meaning to reduce the output power.
[146] On the other hand, if the transmission bit rate of the data is less than the threshold, in step S69, the output control circuit 11 stops the power supply to the signal amplifier 6, so that the signal amplifier 6 is at rest. Transition to

It is characterized by having (91). Therefore, about the same structure as the data transmission apparatus 70 shown in FIG. 13, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[202] The data transmission device 90 includes an input / output circuit 2, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, a temperature detection sensor 7, an output control circuit 11, and an antenna 12.

That is, the temperature monitoring circuit 92, when the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value selected by the calendar memory circuit 91, the temperature monitoring circuit 92 of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal When the upper limit value is raised and higher than the target temperature value, the upper limit value of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the amplitude control circuit 76.
[205] In the data transmission apparatus 90 provided with each part which functions as mentioned above, the input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[206] First, in step S110, the input / output circuit 2 inputs the packetized data from the PC 9 and supplies this data to the division circuit 71.
[207] In step S111, the dividing circuit 71 divides the packetized data input from the input / output circuit 2 into three channels, and divides the data of each channel into the first baseband signal processing circuit 72 and the first channel. Supply to the two baseband signal processing circuit 73 and the third baseband signal processing circuit 74, respectively.
[208] In step S112, each of the baseband signal processing circuits 72, 73, and 74 spreads and modulates the input data by different spread codes (code 1, code 2, and code 3), respectively. Each diffusion modulated signal is supplied to the synthesis circuit 75.

[211] In step S115, the temperature monitoring circuit 92 determines whether the detected temperature indicated by the electric signal is lower than the target temperature value selected corresponding to the date and time. If the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal is lower than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S116 where the upper limit of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal and the power supply voltage of the signal amplifier 6 are raised. On the other hand, if the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal is higher than the target temperature, the process proceeds to step S117, where the upper limit of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal and the power supply voltage of the signal amplifier 6 are lowered.

[214] In step S120, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, and wirelessly transmits the amplified RF signal via the antenna 12.
[215] As described above, the data transmission device 90 controls the upper limit of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed the target temperature value selected corresponding to the date and time. As a result, the data transmission device 90 is controlled so that the internal temperature does not exceed the target temperature value determined corresponding to the date and time.

[216] Next, as a tenth embodiment according to the present invention, the data transmission device 100 shown in FIG. 20 has the same basic configuration as that of the data transmission device 1 shown in FIG. And an audio CODEC (Coder / Decoder) circuit 102. Therefore, about the same structure as the data transmission apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[217] The data transmission apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 20 includes a baseband signal processing section 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, a temperature detection sensor 7, an antenna 12, And an audio signal input / output circuit 101, an audio codec circuit 102, and a temperature monitoring circuit 103. The baseband signal processing section 4 has a baseband signal processing circuit 10 and an output control circuit 11.
[218] The voice signal input circuit 101 inputs a voice signal from the outside, and supplies the voice signal to the voice codec circuit 102 which will be described later.
[219] The voice codec circuit 102 encodes the voice signal supplied from the voice signal input circuit into voice data and supplies it to the baseband signal circuit 10.
[220] The temperature monitoring circuit 103 compares the detected temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 with the target temperature value stored in advance, and the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate in the audio codec circuit 102. Decide That is, the temperature monitoring circuit 103 raises the upper limit of the encoding bit rate when the detected temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the previously stored target temperature value, thereby raising the target temperature. If the value is higher than the value, the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the audio codec circuit 102.
[221] In the data transmission apparatus 100 equipped with the functions functioning as described above, the input audio signal is transmitted by radio by going through a series of steps shown in FIG.
[222] First, in step S121 of FIG. 21, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 112.
[223] In step S122, the temperature monitoring circuit 112 determines whether the temperature value indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value of the temperature previously stored. If the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is lower than the target temperature value, the flow advances to step S123 to raise the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the data and the encoding bit rate in the baseband signal processing circuit 10. On the other hand, when the temperature value indicated by the electric signal is higher than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S124 where the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the data and the encoding bit rate in the baseband signal processing circuit 10 are deduced.
[224] In step S125, the voice CODEC circuit 102, in accordance with the state of the voice signal including the silent state, does not exceed the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 112, The encoding bit rate for each frame, which is a coding unit, is determined, and information on the transmission bit rate corresponding to the encoding bit rate for each frame is sent to the baseband and signal processing circuit 10, and the audio is encoded at the encoding bit rate for each frame. The data is encoded and output to the baseband signal processing circuit 10.
[225] In step S1126, the output control circuit 11 detects the presence or absence of audio data in the audio codec circuit 102.
[226] In step S127, the output control circuit 11 determines that transmission of the audio data is performed at a fixed interval. If the transmission of the voice data is performed at a predetermined interval, the flow advances to step S128, and the baseband signal processing circuit 10 basebases the encoded voice data on the basis of the encoding bit rate determined in the step S125. A signal is generated and the data to be transmitted is supplied to the RF signal modulation circuit 5.
[227] On the other hand, when the audio data is not supplied for a predetermined period or more, in step S129, the output control circuit 11 stops supplying power to the RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6, or the like. Thus, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6 are transitioned to the rest state.
[228] In step S130, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input from the baseband signal processing circuit 10 and generates an RF signal for transmission on a carrier wave.
[229] In step S131, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.
[230] As described above, the data transmission apparatus 100 controls the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the audio data so that the detected temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed a preset target temperature value. As a result, the data transmission device 100 is controlled so that the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 does not exceed the target temperature value. Therefore, the data transmission apparatus 100 does not need to perform a heat dissipation design in accordance with the maximum value of the heat generation temperature, and it becomes possible to simplify the heat dissipation mechanism. In addition, the data transmission device 100 not only realizes a smaller size and a lighter weight of the case body size, but also reduces the cost in production.
[231] As the eleventh embodiment, the data transmission device 11 shown in FIG. 22 has the same basic configuration as the data transmission device 100 shown in FIG. 20, but the ambient temperature detection means 111 for detecting the ambient temperature is provided. It is characterized by having. Therefore, about the same structure as the data transmission apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. In addition, the solid line in a figure shows the flow of data, and the broken line shows the flow of a control signal.
[232] The data transmission device 110 includes a baseband signal processing section 4, an RF signal modulation circuit 5, a signal amplifier 6, a temperature detection sensor 7, an antenna 12, and audio signal input / output. A circuit 101, an audio codec circuit 102, an ambient temperature detection circuit 111, and a temperature monitoring circuit 112 are provided. The baseband signal processing section 4 has a baseband signal processing circuit 10 and an output control circuit 11.
[233] The ambient temperature detection circuit 111 detects the ambient temperature, converts the ambient temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 112.
[234] The temperature monitoring circuit 112 compares the temperature difference between the detection temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the ambient temperature detected by the ambient temperature detection circuit 111, and the target temperature difference stored in advance. The encoding bit rate of the voice data is determined. In other words, if the temperature difference between the detection temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the ambient temperature detected by the ambient temperature detection circuit 11 is smaller than the target temperature difference, the temperature monitoring circuit 112 generates an audio signal. When the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the data is raised and is larger than the target temperature difference, the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the audio data is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the speech codec circuit 102.
[235] In the data transmission apparatus 110 equipped with the functions functioning as described above, the input data is transmitted by radio by going through a series of steps shown in FIG.

In addition, the ambient temperature detection circuit 111 detects the ambient temperature, converts the ambient temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 112.
[237] In step S133, the temperature monitoring circuit 112 detects a temperature difference between the detection temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the ambient temperature input from the ambient temperature detection circuit 111.
[238] In step S134, the temperature monitoring circuit 112 determines whether the temperature difference is smaller than the target temperature difference stored in advance. If the temperature difference is lower than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S135 where the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the audio data and the transmission bit rate in the baseband signal processing circuit 10 are raised. On the other hand, if the temperature difference is higher than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S136, where the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the audio data and the transmission bit rate in the baseband signal encoding circuit 11 are deduced.
[239] In step S137, the voice codec circuit 102 encodes according to the state of the voice signal including the silent state in a range not exceeding the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 112. The encoding bit rate for each frame, which is a unit, is determined, and information on the transmission bit rate corresponding to the encoding bit rate for each frame is sent to the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and audio data is output at the encoding bit rate for each frame. Encoding is performed and output to the baseband signal processing circuit 10.
[240] In step S138, the output control circuit 11 detects the presence or absence of audio data in the audio codec circuit 102.
[241] In step S139, the output control circuit 11 determines that the transmission of the audio data is performed at a fixed interval. If the transmission of the voice data is performed at a predetermined interval, the flow advances to step S140, and the baseband signal processing circuit 10 performs a base on the encoded voice data based on the encoding bit rate determined in the step S125. A band signal is generated and data to be transmitted is supplied to the RF signal modulation circuit 5. On the other hand, when the supply of the audio data has not been performed for a predetermined period or more, in step S141, the output control circuit 11 stops the power supply to the RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6, and so on. Thus, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6 are transitioned to the idle state.
[242] In step S142, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input from the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and generates an RF signal for transmission on a carrier wave.
[243] In step S143, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.
[244] As described above, the data transmission device 110 controls the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the audio data so that the difference between the temperature of the signal amplifier 6 and the ambient temperature does not exceed a preset target temperature difference. As a result, the data transmission device 110 is controlled so that the difference between the ambient temperature and the internal temperature does not exceed the target temperature difference. Accordingly, the data transmission device 110 can maintain the internal temperature at an appropriate temperature in accordance with the ambient temperature, since the heat dissipation mechanism and the temperature control mechanism can be simplified. In addition, the data transmission device 110 can realize a smaller size and a lighter weight of the case body size, and the cost in manufacturing can be reduced.
[245] As a twelfth embodiment, the data transfer device 120 shown in FIG. 24 has the same basic configuration as the data transfer device 100 shown in FIG. 20, but has a calendar memory that stores a target temperature value corresponding to the date and time.

[247] The calendar memory circuit 121 stores a target temperature value corresponding to the date and time, and selects the target temperature value at that time from the date and time and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 122.
[248] The temperature monitoring circuit 122 detects the detection temperature indicated by the electric signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 and the target temperature value selected by the calendar memory circuit 121, and determines the upper limit of the maximum value of the amplitude of the synthesized signal. That is, the temperature monitoring circuit 122, when the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature selected by the calendar memory circuit 121, the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the data When the temperature is higher than the target temperature value, the upper limit value of the encoding bit rate of the data is lowered, and a control signal indicating the determined upper limit value is supplied to the amplitude control circuit 76.
[249] In the data transmission apparatus 90 provided with each part functioning as mentioned above, the input data is transmitted by radio | wireless by going through a series of process shown in FIG.
[250] First, in step S144, the temperature detection sensor 7 detects the temperature of the signal amplifier 6, converts this temperature into an electrical signal, and supplies it to the temperature monitoring circuit 122. The calendar memory circuit 121 supplies the target temperature value corresponding to the date and time to the temperature monitoring circuit 122.
[251] In step S145, the temperature monitoring circuit 122 determines whether the temperature input from the temperature detection sensor 7 is lower than the target temperature value selected corresponding to the date and time stored in the calendar memory circuit 121. Determine. If the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal is lower than the target temperature value, the flow advances to step S146 to raise the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the audio data and the transmission bit rate in the baseband signal processing circuit 10. On the other hand, if the detected temperature indicated by the electrical signal is higher than the target temperature value, the process proceeds to step S147 where the upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the audio data and the transmission bit rate in the baseband signal processing circuit 10 are pulled out. Get off.
[252] In step S148, the audio codec circuit 102 encodes according to the state of the audio signal including the silent state in a range not exceeding an upper limit of the encoding bit rate of the data determined by the temperature monitoring circuit 112. The encoding bit rate for each frame as a unit is determined, and information on the transmission bit rate corresponding to the encoding bit rate for each frame is sent to the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and audio data is transmitted at the encoding bit rate for each frame. Encoding is performed and output to the baseband signal processing circuit 10.
[253] In step S149, the output control circuit 11 detects the presence or absence of audio data in the audio codec circuit 102.
[254] In step S150, the output control circuit 11 proceeds to step 151 when the transmission of the voice data is performed at a predetermined interval, and the baseband signal processing circuit 10 proceeds in step S125. Based on the determined encoding bit rate, a baseband signal is generated from the encoded speech data, and the data to be transmitted is supplied to the RF signal modulation circuit 5. On the other hand, when the supply of the audio data is not performed for a predetermined period or more, in step S152, the output control circuit 11 stops the power supply to the RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6, and so on. The RF signal modulation circuit 5 and the signal amplifier 6 are then transitioned to the idle state.
[255] In step S153, the RF signal modulation circuit 5 modulates the baseband signal input by the baseband signal processing circuit 10, and generates an RF signal for carrying on a carrier wave.
[256] In step S154, the signal amplifier 6 amplifies the RF signal input from the RF signal modulation circuit 5, passes the antenna 12, and transmits the amplified RF signal by radio.

As a result, the data transmission device 60 is controlled so that the internal temperature does not exceed the target temperature value determined corresponding to the date and time. Therefore, the data transmission device 120 can maintain the internal temperature at an appropriate temperature in the information of the date and time from above, where the heat dissipation mechanism or the temperature control mechanism can be simplified. In addition, the data transmission device 120 not only realizes further miniaturization and weight reduction of the case body size, but also reduces the cost in production.
