Abstract: An object of the present invention is to make it easy to recognize a start point and an end point of each music piece, when a plurality of music pieces are broadcasted. A music piece broadcast end information bit, which is reversed in its logic when a broadcast of a music piece ends, is newly added to information to be multiplexed and transmitted.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing an integrated presentation of existing media program services and secondary media program services is described. The method comprises the steps of accepting a election of a secondary media program transmitted on a secondary media program channel; accessing a mapping to determine a primary media program channel associated with the selected secondary media program channel; commanding a first tuner module to receive conditional access information associated with the primary media program channel from the primary service provider; evaluating the conditional access information to determine if a second tuner is authorized to receive the secondary media program channel; and commanding a second tuner module to receive the secondary media program if the second tuner is authorized to receive the secondary media program channel.

Abstract: Method for processing transmitter and program related data in an FM RDS receiver and receiver executing the method, providing a band scanning search for detecting FM RDS transmitters exceeding a predetermined reception quality level. To enhance efficiency in data processing and use of storage capacity, transmitter related data including tuning data is stored separately from program related RDS data. Per each detected transmitter a quality factor indicating the quality in reception quality thereof is being allocated to each detected RDS transmitter and stored in a first memory bank, along with the relevant tuning data. Per each program identification code carried in the RDS data of the so detected transmitters program related FM RDS data are being stored in a second memorybank, a linkage code defining the storage address within the second memory bank containing the program data carried by the relevant FM RDS transmitter being allocated to the transmitter data of each FM RDS transmitter and stored in the first memory bank.

Abstract: There is described an FM receiver (29) including; an antenna (2) able to receive a high frequency signal from a transmitter; a high frequency stage (3); an oscillator (5); a mixer unit (30) able to provide a signal (S6) at an intermediate frequency (fIF); an FM demodulation stage (8); and an automatic frequency control stage (36) able to control the oscillator, so as to keep said intermediate frequency (fIF) of said signal (S6) constant. This receiver further includes a locked loop (32) arranged to enslave said intermediate frequency (fIF) from a pilot frequency (fp) present in the demodulated signal. One advantage of such a locked loop is that the intermediate frequency is enslaved so that the aliasing phenomenon does not prevent demodulation of the signals containing the RDS data.

Abstract translation: 描述了一种FM接收器（29），包括： 能够从发射机接收高频信号的天线（2）; 高频段（3）; 振荡器（5）; 能够提供中频（fIF）的信号（S6）的混频器单元（30）; FM解调级（8）; 以及能够控制振荡器的自动频率控制级（36），以便使所述信号（S6）的所述中频（fIF）保持恒定。 该接收机还包括锁定环路（32），被设置为从存在于解调信号中的导频（fp）来奴役所述中频（fIF）。 这种锁定环的一个优点是中间频率被强制使得混叠现象不能阻止对包含RDS数据的信号的解调。

Abstract: To demodulate the RDS signal, the stereo-multiplex signal is multiplied in a first branch by the in-phase component of an oscillator filtered by a low-pass filter while decimated in its sampling rate and filtered by a high-pass filter while in a second branch it is multiplied by the quadrature component of the oscillator filtered by a low-pass filter decimated in its sampling rate, and filtered by a high-pass filter. An error signal to control the oscillator is calculated from the high-pass-filtered signals and the RDS bit clock. A clock generator generating the RDS bit clock is controlled by the first high-pass-filtered signal and by the oscillator. An RDS decoder, to whose input the first high-pass-filtered signal is applied. and an arithmetic unit which calculates the error signal from the high-pass-filtered signals and from the PDS bit clock are both clocked by the clock generator. The RDS data are retrievable from the output of the RDS decoder.

Abstract: A method of masking interruptions in the playback of received radio signals is described, wherein lengthy interruptions are allowed only when modulation of the radio broadcast program currently being received is recognized as speech, and a modulation pause in the received radio signal is detected. This method permits complete masking of lengthy interruptions in playback or making them inaudible, where these interruptions are necessary, e.g., for analysis/testing for a transmission frequency of transmitted RDS information to be used as an alternative to a transmission frequency currently being received.
