The communication device first transmits a Defer signal over the wireless medium within a contention period. This pre-empts the medium for subsequent backoff contention. The communication device then performs a backoff procedure within the contention period. This is a deferred contention taking place after the Defer signal. The adaptive pre-emption includes having a length of the Defer signal and/or a pre-emption delay prior to transmitting the Defer signal after a start of the contention period to be determined based on an access class of the pending data, such as access categories, traffic classes, traffic identifiers (TIDs), user priorities (UPs), SCSIDs identifying streams of data, and so on.

Abstract

This image formation device comprises: a first charging member that forms a first charging part by coming into contact with the surface of a photoconductive drum, and charges the surface of the photoconductive drum by application of a first charging voltage to the first charging part; and a second charging member that charges the surface of the photoconductive drum by application of a second charging voltage to a second charging part facing the surface of the photoconductive drum. The first charging part is formed upstream from the second charging part downstream from a transfer part in the rotation direction of the photoconductive drum. When a potential difference formed between a second surface potential formed on the surface of the photoconductive drum and the second charging voltage in the second charging part is defined as a charging potential difference, in an image formation operation, the charging potential difference is controlled to be higher than or equal to a discharge start voltage, and in a state where the photoconductive drum is rotated and the first charging voltage is applied, the charging potential difference in a non-image formation operation is controlled to be smaller than that in the image formation operation.

Abstract

In this photoelectric conversion device, a plurality of pixel blocks each comprising a plurality of first pixels, a determination part, and an addition part are disposed. The plurality of first pixels each have a first detection part that detects light and that outputs a detection signal and a first counter that counts detection signals which are output in a first time period and that outputs a count value. The determination part detects an event on the basis of the count value from the first counter, and the addition part adds up output of the first counter over a second time period and outputs, as an image signal, the output added up.
