    摘要: Power IQ modulation systems and methods include first and second power amplifiers, each including a signal input, a supply input and a power input. The first and second power amplifiers are preferably class-C power amplifiers. A source of first, second, third and fourth reference frequency signals is also provided. The first and second reference frequency signals are inverted relative to one another, and the third and fourth reference frequency signals are inverted relative to one another. Preferably, the first, second, third and fourth reference frequency signals are 0°, 180°, 90° and 270° phase shifted reference frequency signals, respectively. A switching system is also provided that selectively applies one of the first and second reference frequency signals to the signal input of the first power amplifier as a function of the polarity of one of the I and Q input signals. The switching system also selectively applies one of the third and fourth reference frequency signals to the signal input of the second power amplifier as a function of the polarity of the other of the I and Q input signals. A third amplifier, preferably a class-D amplifier, is responsive to the one of the I and Q input signals to supply a first variable supply voltage to the supply input of the first amplifier. A fourth amplifier, also preferably a class-D amplifier, is responsive to the other of I and Q input signals to supply a second variable supply voltage to the supply input of the second amplifier. A coupler couples the power outputs of the first and second power amplifiers to a load such as a radiotelephone antenna. Accordingly, power IQ modulation is provided that can use class-C and class-D amplifiers that are highly efficient.

    摘要: A system and a method for transforming an N-bit input value into a transformed N-bit output value which may be used for error correction coding or ciphering of the N-bit input value. In a representative embodiment, the system comprises means for providing a set of all possible N-bit values as a plurality of mutually exclusive subsets each containing at least one possible N-bit value; means for comparing the N-bit input value with each of the subsets to determine to which one of the subsets the N-bit input value belongs; and means for selecting as the transformed N-bit output value an N-bit value from another one of the subsets. In accordance with the present invention, each of these subsets may be cyclically generated in a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) or, alternatively, stored in a memory.

    摘要: A circuit for reducing phase noise in a transmitted radio signal includes a first phase-locked loop circuit including a first controlled oscillator generating a first output signal at a first desired frequency, and a first phase comparator developing a first phase error signal to control the first controlled oscillator, the first error signal representative of phase differences between the first output signal and the first desired frequency. A second phase-locked loop circuit includes a second controlled oscillator generating a second output signal at a desired frequency of transmission related to the first desired frequency, and a second phase comparator developing a second phase error signal representative of phase differences between the first output signal and the desired frequency of transmission. A summer combines the first and second error signals to control the second controlled oscillator to thereby reduce, or cancel, phase noise generated by the first controlled oscillator in the second output signal transmitted as a radio signal at the desired frequency of transmission.

    摘要: Establishing a connection between a paging unit and a standby unit in a channel hopping communications system includes activating the standby unit for an activation time period out of every standby time period. During each activation time period, the standby unit monitors a selected channel for receipt of a paging message. The selected channel is selected from a plurality of channels, and, for each subsequent activation time period, the selected channel is a subsequent one of the plurality of channels as specified by a hopping sequence and an internal clock. A page train is repeatedly transmitted from the paging unit to the standby unit, until a response is received from the standby unit. Each page train includes a plurality of paging messages, each paging message being transmitted on a different one of a subset of the plurality of channels. Selection of a page train for transmission by the paging unit may be based on an estimate of the standby unit's internal clock.

    摘要: A multi-channel transmit amplifier array comprising a multiplicity N of coupled power amplifier elements is disclosed. The number of channels provided for amplifying desired signals for transmission is less than N, by at least one. In this case, the unused channel is used to inject an intermodulation compensation waveform specifically tailored to reduce intermodulation generated in all of the other N-1 signal paths. Instantaneous complex waveform values for the intermodulation compensation waveform may be systematically computed from the instantaneous complex values of the N-1 desired signals in such a way as to minimize the greatest signal amplitude in any of the N signal paths.

    摘要: A digital beamforming network for transmitting a first number of digital information signal using a second number of antenna array elements is disclosed. Assemblers are used for assembling one information bit selected from each of the information signals into a bit vector. Digital processors have an input for the bit vector and a number of outputs equal to the second number of antenna elements and process the bit vector. Finally, modulation waveform generators coupled to each of the second number of outputs generate a signal for transmission by each antenna element.

    摘要: A method and receiver which provides, among other features, for resubtraction of an already subtracted signal in order to eliminate subtraction errors, termed re-orthogonalization, is described herein. According to exemplary embodiments, pairwise combinations of spreading codes are used to despread received composite signals. For example, these pairwise combinations can include a first spreading code associated with a signal that has already been subtracted and a second spreading code associated with a signal which is weaker than that associated with the first spreading code. In this way both resubtraction and subtraction are performed at the same time.
