    Abstract: A spectrum analyzer corrects for internal frequency errors in a reference oscillator using a timing control signal. The reference oscillator provides a reference signal at a reference frequency. An error detection circuit determines an error in the reference frequency using the timing control signal and produces an error correction signal for use by a frequency conversion device in adjusting an output frequency thereof to compensate for the frequency error in the reference frequency.

    Abstract: A wireless transceiver including an oscillator, a radio, a baseband processor and MAC device that performs apiori frequency offset correction. The radio converts between RF signals and baseband signals. The baseband processor includes a frequency correction loop, an inverter and a combiner. The frequency correction loop generates a frequency offset signal based on a frequency difference between an oscillator reference frequency and frequency of a received signal. The inverter inverts the frequency offset signal and the combiner adjusts frequency of a transmit signal by the inverted frequency offset signal. The MAC processes received packets, identifies packets received from an AP, provides packets to the baseband processor for transmission, and controls the baseband processor to adjust transmit signals to a frequency of the AP. The baseband processor may include a memory or filter to store or update frequency offset values.

    Abstract: Television systems comprising tuners (1), controllers (2) for controlling tuners (1), and stages (3) for receiving tuned signals from tuners (1) and for supplying control signals to controllers (2), use time-consuming automatic fine tuning signals while high speed tuning. By using lock signals (53) from phase-locked-loops (31) in stages (3) as control signals, an indication whether a channel is active or not can now be got much quicker due to lock signals being much faster available than automatic fine tuning signals. By using synchronization signals (54) from synchronization generators (4) as further control signals, a further indication is got. In a fast tuning mode, frequencies nearby active channels are detected, and in a fine tuning mode, channel frequencies are identified. According to the basic idea, lock signals originating from phase-locked-loops (31) in stages (3) can give first indications whether a channel is active or not, preferably and further advantageously in combination with second indications based upon synchronization signals (54).

    Abstract: For synchronous transmission between two telecommunications units, the devices must always be synchronized. Typically, a reference signal is required for synchronization. The reference signal can be transmitted from one unit to another embedded in the data signal. If the data is transmitted via a transmission network modulated in the way required by the network, the reference signal is not always received by the receiver together with the data signal. The problem is solved by this invention by converting the reference signal before its transmission into the transmission network for the frequency band used for transmission in the transmission network.

    Abstract: An Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) circuit for a mobile terminal employs a fractional-N Phase Locked Loop (PLL) to directly reduce errors in the synthesized frequency, such as due to component tolerances, temperature drift, and the like. The frequency error is detected by the average speed of rotation of the I,Q constellation. A corresponding offset is added to the tuning frequency selection word prior to encoding, such as in a nullnull modulator, to generate an effective non-integer PLL frequency division factor over a specified duration. The nullnull modulator may include dithering the different integer values by a pseudo-random number to minimize noise in the output frequency spectrum introduced by the fractional-N division. Component and parameter selection allow a high degree of resolution in frequency control of the fractional-N PLL. By directly controlling for the frequency error, a DAC and XTAL oscillator tuning circuit may be eliminated from the AFC circuit.
