20100303070 | COMMUNICATION RELAY DEVICE FOR TRAIN AND COMMUNICATION RELAY METHOD FOR TRAIN - When data is transmitted from a first communication terminal to a second communication terminal, a communication relay device converts car identification information of a communication source of communication-source identification information included in a communication packet into a car number of a vehicle, and transmits the data to an inter-vehicle communication path. When data is transmitted from the second communication terminal to the first communication terminal, the communication relay device converts car identification information of a communication destination of communication-destination identification information included in a communication packet into a “0”-th car indicating own car, and transmits the data to an in-vehicle communication path. | 12-02-2010 |

20110280158 | IP-ADDRESS DISTRIBUTION DEVICE AND IP-ADDRESS DISTRIBUTION METHOD - A path-information obtaining unit obtains a piece of path information of a communication network by inquiring a port number of an Ethernet switch that transmits a MAC address of a request source of an IP address. An IP-address specifying unit specifies an IP address that corresponds to the piece of path information of the communication network by referring to an IP-address correspondence table, and distributes the specified IP address to the request source of an IP address. | 11-17-2011 |
20110286464 | TRAIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND TRAIN COMMUNICATION METHOD - A train communication system includes a communication relay device that is installed in each vehicle and a communication terminal device that is connected to the communication relay device. The communication relay device acquires vehicle information indicating an in-formation position of a vehicle in which the communication relay device is installed. The communication terminal device refers to a correspondence table that defines a correspondence relationship between vehicle information and communication identification information, and determines communication identification information to be provided to the communication terminal device, based on vehicle information obtained from the communication relay device. | 11-24-2011 |
20130173992 | MEMORY CONTROL DEVICE AND MEMORY CONTROL METHOD - A memory control device includes a CPU, a flash ROM that records therein first information having undergone an error-correction coding process and second information not having undergone an error-correction coding process, an address line switch that switches between a first path that connects an address bus to the ROM so that the CPU can read the first information and a second path that connects the address bus to the ROM so that the second information can be erased, written, and read, a decoder that performs error correction on the first information and performs decoding, and a second switch that switches between a third path that connects the decoder to the data bus so that information decoded by the decoder is transmitted to the data bus and a fourth path that connects the ROM to the data bus so that the second information can be erased, written, and read. | 07-04-2013 |
20130211670 | IN-VEHICLE INFORMATION SYSTEM - An in-vehicle information system that notifies passengers in a vehicle of guidance information, including a display input unit having a display unit that displays the guidance information and an input unit that covers the display unit and detects touch operations by the passengers to be output as input operation information, and an information control unit that switches and outputs the guidance information to the display unit according to driving states of the vehicle and classifies the guidance information into first information to be provided to the passengers according to the input operation information and second information to be provided to the passengers according to the driving states of the vehicle to output the first information to the display unit according to the input operation information. | 08-15-2013 |
20140032734 | IP-ADDRESS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM - An IP-address distribution system according to the present invention includes a network formed by a plurality of switching devices, and a plurality of IP-address distribution devices connected to the network, wherein the switching devices are grouped into two or more groups, and the switching devices interrupt an IP-address request signal transmitted from a terminal that requests allocation of an IP address at a physical port to which a switching device in another group is connected. | 01-30-2014 |
20140185619 | NETWORK SYSTEM - To provide a network system including a network constructed by combining a plurality of switching devices. The network includes a first partial network including switching devices and a second partial network that is formed outside the first partial network and includes switching devices. The switching device in the first partial network connected to the second partial network blocks passage of a broadcast signal that is transmitted from a terminal device and that has a specific logical port number as transmission information at a physical port. | 07-03-2014 |
20140222982 | IP ADDRESS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM AND IP ADDRESS DISTRIBUTION METHOD - An IP address distribution system according to the present invention includes a network including a plurality of switches, and an IP address distribution apparatus connected to the network, in which each of the switches holds therein arrangement information that indicates a position thereof in the network, and when receiving an IP-address request signal from one of, devices connected thereto, adds the held arrangement information to the IP-address request signal and transfers the IP-address request signal, and when receiving an IP-address request signal, the IP address distribution apparatus selects an IP address from a range corresponding to the arrangement information added to the signal and distributes the selected IP address to a request source device. | 08-07-2014 |
20140347977 | NETWORK SYSTEM - A network system according to the present invention includes a backbone network that is constituted by combining a plurality of switch devices, and a subnetwork that is constituted by a plurality of switch devices connected linearly, where the switch devices positioned at both ends of the linear connection are connected to the backbone network, wherein among physical ports included in the switch devices that constitute the backbone network, a first physical port that is one of two physical ports to which the subnetwork is connected blocks a packet with a specific logical port number having arrived from a specific direction, and passes other packets, and a second physical port that is the other of the two physical ports passes a packet with the specific logical port number having arrived from the specific direction, and blocks other packets. | 11-27-2014 |
20150074277 | TRAIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Provided is a network that is constituted in a train formation; communication relay devices; terminal devices; and a position-information distribution device. The communication relay devices rewrite position information from the position-information distribution device to vehicle information indicating positions of vehicles that are provided with the communication relay devices and transfer rewritten information. The terminal devices include an IP-address correspondence table in which IP addresses that are set so as not to overlap with each other for respective types of the terminal devices and are to be used while corresponding to the vehicle information and connection destination information of the terminal devices correspond to each other. IP addresses to be allocated to the terminal devices are decided on the basis of the correspondence table and the vehicle information from the communication relay devices. | 03-12-2015 |
