    摘要: A radio frequency tuner is provided having inputs for receiving signals in common or overlapping frequency ranges from distribution networks. Each input is connected to a respective first converter, for example performing upconversion to a first intermediate frequency above the RF frequency ranges of the incoming signals. The first frequency changers are arranged to be active one at a time. The outputs of the first frequency changers are supplied to a second frequency changer which performs downconversion on the output signal of the active first converter to convert a selected channel from one of the distribution networks to a second intermediate frequency. Sufficient RF isolation may therefore be provided without requiring mechanical switching components such as RF relays.

    摘要: A method for transmitting a message from a first node device to a second node device in which the second node device belongs to network neighborhood of the first node device. The first and second node devices belong to an electrical supply network using powerline communications. The first node device begins by fragmenting the message into at least a first fragment and a second fragment. Next it associates a first frequency band of a set of frequency bands with the first fragment and a second frequency band with the second fragment, the first and second frequency bands being different. It then transmits each first and second fragment on the frequency band with which it is associated.

    摘要: An electronic device including an IF transceiver configured to output a first IF signal and an LO signal via an AC-coupled interface, the first IF signal being up-converted from a first baseband signal, and output a second IF signal and a first control signal via a DC-coupled interface, the second IF signal being up-converted from a second baseband signal, and the first control signal being generated based on the LO signal, and an RF module configured to separate the first IF signal and the LO signal obtained via the AC-coupled interface, separate the second IF signal and the first control signal obtained via the DC-coupled interface, generate a first RF signal based on the first IF signal for transmission via an antenna array, and generate a second RF signal based on the second IF signal for transmission via the antenna array.

    摘要: A transmitter circuit coupled to a receiver circuit through wiring. The transmitter circuit transmits, as an input signal, either a first signal of a rectangular waveform having a logic level that changes according to first data, or a second signal having a slope that changes corresponding to second data. The receiver circuit includes an analog-to-digital (AD) converter receiving the input signal through the wiring, and a processing circuit configured to process an output of the AD converter, to thereby determine whether the input signal is the first signal or the second signal, and upon determining that the input signal is the first signal or a second signal, acquire the first data or the second data based on the logic level of the first signal or the slope of the second signal, as the case may be.

    摘要: In an example, a method includes: in a first mode, causing a first tuner of an entertainment system to receive and process a first RF signal from a first antenna configured for a first band to output a first audio signal of a first radio station and causing a second tuner of the entertainment system to receive a second RF signal from a second antenna configured for the first band to determine signal quality metrics for one or more radio stations of the first band; in a second mode, causing the first tuner to output a first signal representation of the first RF signal and causing the second tuner to receive and process the second RF signal to output a second signal representation of the second RF signal; and causing a phase diversity combining circuit to process the first and second signal representations to output an audio signal of the first radio station, without disruption of output from the entertainment system of a broadcast of the first radio station.
