    摘要: The present invention relates to circuitry for a receiver having a low cost filter using automatic alignment of the center frequency of signals input to the filter to suppress noise and out-of-band signals from the filter output over a narrow bandwidth. An RF input signal to the receiver is downconverted to an IF frequency using a VCO, and the IF signal is provided to the low cost filter. The output of the filter is input to a frequency correction circuit and a distortion detection circuit. The distortion detection circuit provides an error signal including positive frequency shift errors determined from digital ones identified from the filter output signal, and negative frequency shift error signals determined from digital zeros in the filter output signal. The distortion detection circuit output is then provided through an infinite impulse response filter which integrates the distortion detection output to provide a voltage control signal to a voltage control input of the VCO and the frequency correction circuit. The VCO then automatically centers the frequency of the signal input to the low cost filter to suppress noise and out-of-band signals, and the frequency correction circuit removes error correction frequency shift provided by the VCO after downconversion. For battery powered devices, the infinite impulse response filter can maintain the state of the voltage control signal provided to the VCO upon receipt of a sleep mode signal after the sleep mode signal is disabled.

    摘要: A device and a method for adjusting a bandpass filter, especially a combiner filter. The method includes deriving an RF sample signal proportional to the power of a modulated RF signal which is one of: passing forward to the bandpass filter, reflected from the input of the bandpass filter and passed through the bandpass filter; down-converting the sample signal by another RF signal; detecting the signal strength of the mixing result; adjusting the center frequency of the passband of the bandpass filter on the basis of the detected signal strength. There is an essential frequency or modulation difference between the signals to be mixed, and so the mixing result is an AC signal of a lower frequency. No accurate adjustment of the phase relation of the signals to be mixed is required. Preferably, the frequency or phase difference between the signals to be mixed is accomplished by utilizing the phase modulation contained in the transmission when one of the signals is unmodulated. The DC component is filtered off the AC signal, which eliminates the measuring problems that otherwise would be caused by the DC offset properties of the mixer.

    摘要: The invention concerns an arrangement including a microprocessor controller, PROM memory, and a digital to analog converter (DAC) arrangement for generating a plurality of control voltages for trimming respective ones of a plurality of varactor controlled tunable filters. The controller couples digital control signals to the respective DACs which generate respective analog control voltages which are applied to the respective tunable filters. A tuning voltage generated by a closed control loop, such as phased locked loop also under the control of the controller, is combined with the output control voltages generated by the respective DAC's in a resistance divider arrangement.

    摘要: The relationship between the input and output of a signal transfer circuit, such as a tune circuit, a filter, a phase shifter, an amplifier, etc., is determined by the circuit response to the input signal. The value of the circuit response (R) is controlled by the value (V) of a control signal supplied thereto. According to the invention, the relationship between the latter values is approximated by a linear regression function based on a number of measured first pairs of response/control signal values and based on such regression function a transcoder determines control signal values for providing response values of the circuit in accordance with second pairs of response/control signal values.

    摘要: A non-inverting, direct current amplifier stage is cascaded into an integrator stage to form a two stage tuned network (10) having a single input junction common to both stages. The network provides independent adjustment of center frequency, bandwidth and voltage gain. The insertion of a positive feedback loop between the stages provides a very narrow bandwidth network (10'). The addition of back-to-back zener diodes between the common input node and ground converts the network into an oscillator (10").
