摘要:
Data is transmitted and received in a TDMA frequency hopping system by allocating two or more time slots for transmitting identical data packets, and transmitting the identical data packets in the allocated time slots at different frequencies. This requires the transmission of redundant information but reduces the likelihood of data loss. An adaptive scheme may be employed wherein more time slots are allocated for the repeated data transmissions in areas of poor reception while fewer time slots are allocated for the repeated data transmissions in areas of higher quality reception or when higher bandwidth is required.

A novel closed loop FET biasing circuit featuring a standard logic control format for operational mode switching between operating states of an FET power amplifier. In a preferred embodiment, an FET gate bias control device is provided for configuring a gate bias circuit in an FET power amplifier to accommodate a broad range of output power levels, wherein the configuration is responsive to a command which establishes an FET bias condition. The gate bias control device of the present invention comprises a circuit having a controllable switching unit which connects a plurality of resistors in the source-drain voltage circuit portion individually or in parallel to provide a multiple of resistance values each corresponding to one of four amplifier operating modes. The controllable switching unit responds to a set of logic control signals, and therefore greatly simplifies the transition between operating modes, while maintaining FET bias conditions which insure operational stability without problems associated with temperature and loading fluctuations.
