Abstract
A semiconductor device is sometimes used in a bad environment like high temperature, low temperature, and high humidity, and is also used by being attached to a spot to which mechanical stress is added. Therefore, in order to improve reliability of a system using the semiconductor device, extremely high durability is required for the semiconductor device. However, since inexpensive price is also required for the semiconductor, a costly process cannot be used to improve durability. A wireless system includes a semiconductor device including a plurality of functional circuits each having the same function, and a communication device. The semiconductor device modulates and transmits a processing result of each functional circuit using subcarriers each having different frequencies. The communication device extracts a normal response by majority decision from a processing result of each functional circuit received. In this manner, a wireless system with high durability can be provided at low cost.
