When pixels are simply skipped while keeping both an order of pixel information and a spatial positional relation the same as those in all-pixel readout, since a distance between pixels to be read out increases, the Nyquist frequency decreases and aliasing noise increases. A 5×5 pixel block is set as a unit pixel block and pieces of pixel information in first, third, and fifth columns of first, third, and fifth rows of a pixel arrangement are added and outputted as an output in an ath row and an ath column of the unit pixel block. Then, pieces of pixel information in sixth, eighth, and tenth columns of the first, the third, and the fifth rows of the pixel arrangement are added and outputted as an output in the ath row and a bth column of the unit pixel block. Subsequently, pieces of pixel information are added and outputted up to a last column or a column near the last column. Thereafter, pieces of pixel information in the first, the third, and the fifth columns of the sixth, the eighth, and the tenth rows of the pixel arrangement are added and outputted as an output in a bth row and the ath column of the unit pixel block. Subsequently, all arbitrary pixels are read out while repeating the same operation and skipping and adding pieces of pixel information.

This invention constructs an antenna matching circuit able to avoid a bad influence when a conductor, such as a metal, or tag, approaches a reader / writer, and dissolves a communication defect area on the reader / writer and stably maintains a communication distance. In this invention, in a RFID system, when the tag corresponds to the generating area of a magnetic field of the reader / writer, a radio wave for sending information to the reader / writer is outputted by operating a control circuit of the tag by electric power generated in an antenna coil of this corresponding tag. A conductor is arranged near the antenna coil of the reader / writer and an eddy current is intentionally flowed. Thus, the communication defect between the reader / writer and the tag approaching this reader / writer is reduced.

An undersampled microstrip array using multilevel and space-filling shaped patch elements based on a fractal geometry achieves within the same electrical area, the same directivity than can be obtained using conventional elements as square or circular-shaped patches. However, the number of elements for the fractal-based array is less, reducing the complexity of the feeding network and overall array. Mutual coupling can be reduced avoiding radiation pattern distortions. Higher gain than that obtained using classical patch elements within the same electrical can be achieved due to the less complexity in the feeding network.
