摘要:
A method and apparatus for a highpass filter structure using transmission line construction which has multiple output tabs for selection of corner frequencies utilizing a plurality of resonators coupled to the transmission line. The transmission line has a characteristic impedance which increases exponentially with respect to a distance from the input.
摘要:
A process for merging and using the Mediation Device Protocol with a network layer protocol. Under the merged protocol, each device joining a network enters into two stages: the Set-Up Stage and the Normal Operational Stage. During the Set-Up Stage, the device identifies its neighbors, builds a neighborhood list, obtains a Logical ID, and picks a parent node in the network. After the Set-Up Stage is complete, the device enters the Normal Operational Stage where it will send/receive control and data messages, invite and help new nodes to join the network, recover from broken links or topology changes, and other normal network operations.

A transceiver device (52 or 10) operates as a source of a data transmission in a communication system (50) capable of dynamically allocating spectrum for transmission of the data transmission between the transceiver device (52) and a second transceiver device (51). The transceiver device (10) includes a transmitter, a receiver coupled to the transmitter and a processor or controller (12) coupled to the transmitter and receiver. The transceiver device is programmed to monitor the spectrum (channels 1-13 of FIG. 3) to determine if a portion (channels 4-8 for example in time slot 8) of the spectrum is available. The transceiver determines what portion of the spectrum is desired for data transmission and then transmits (see time slots 11 and 13) the data transmission within a dynamically selected portion of the available spectrum.
摘要:
A system and method for orthogonal modulation of signals in communication systems. In the transmitter, differentially coded symbols are used to select time-shifted code sequences. The timing, or code position, of a code sequence is determined at the receiver by comparison to the previous code from the same channel, thus eliminating the need for dual-channel transmission and eliminating error due to differences in path propagation time. A fixed preamble code is also used to synchronize the receiver.
摘要:
A method for determining whether a baud rate of a frequency modulated (FM) signal received by a receiver matches a predetermined baud rate. A parameter other than the baud rate is detected and used to confirm whether baud rate detection should be made, or whether if made, is reliable. The parameter is frequency deviation of the received FM signal, or other suitable parameters of the received FM signal.

A zero-intermediate frequency receiver circuit (11) for receiving a radio frequency signal detected by an antenna (14). The receiver circuit (10) comprises a second local oscillator circuit (25) and an oscillator circuit (60) of a phase locked loop demodulator (36) which are identical and track each other so as to provide a more accurate reference for processing a demodulated signal. A current reference (39) providing a current reference signal utilized by the second local oscillator circuit (25) and the oscillator circuit (60) of the phase locked loop demodulator (36).
摘要:
A phase locked loop (PLL) circuit for use as a demodulator and other applications. The PLL circuit (200) comprises a phase detector (210), a transconductance amplifier (212) and a current controlled oscillator (ICO) (214). The phase detector has two signal inputs and two outputs, and detects a phase difference between signals at its inputs. A capacitor C1 is connected to the output of phase detector (210) and develops an output voltage signal vo(t). A transconductance amplifier (212) is coupled to the capacitor C1 and converts the output voltage signal vo(t) to an output current signal. The ICO (214) is coupled to the transconductance amplifier (212) and the second output of the phase detector (210) and generates an output signal having a frequency which is proportional to an input current signal. The output signal of the ICO (214) is coupled to the second signal input of the phase detector (212).
摘要:
A high stability oscillator circuit 100 having an output 150 and a multiple of reference oscillators 102, 104, and 106 for enhanced stability and reliability is disclosed. The output signals of these oscillators 108, 110, and 112 are mixed and analyzed for determination of excessive frequency shift including component failure. Additionally a switch 148 decouples the shifted oscillator signal from the output of the circuit 150 and couples another one of the oscillators in its place.
