Abstract:
The present technology provides an apparatus and a method for transmitting data via two or more FM signals in an interference avoiding manner. The apparatus comprises at least two FM transmitters. Each FM transmitter is configured to transmit a FM signal on a particular FM channel characterized by a certain carrier frequency that includes data and optionally one or more corresponding alternative frequencies (AFs). The apparatus further includes at least two receivers for receiving incoming electromagnetic radiation (EMR). At least one of the receivers is configured to receive incoming EMR associated with at least one of the FM channels, and another is configured to receive incoming EMR at least at frequencies outside of the FM channels. The controller is configured to separately control activation and deactivation of the FM transmitters and determine the carrier frequencies and the one or more AFs based upon incoming EMR.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for identifying a desired device handle in a computer system such as a personal computer running Linux™. The desired device handle is capable of facilitating or providing for interaction with a desired peripheral device, such as a USB™ device. The invention comprises providing a database containing information associating device handles with peripheral devices. A first portion of the database is scanned for information associated with the desired peripheral device. This information is used in determining a second portion of the database, which is scanned for information indicative of the desired device handle. The desired device handle is then identified.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for on-the-fly mode change in a paging system (201) is provided. A transmitter controller (301) in a base station (207) receives paging information. From the paging information, the transmitter controller (301) is capable of identifying a plurality of paging protocols associated with the paging information. Each identified paging protocol is associated with a corresponding mode. Mode information (D.sub.3, D.sub.4) corresponding to each mode is provided to an exciter (303). Based upon the mode information, the exciter (303) modulates a frequency using predetermined values of frequency deviation and frequency offset associated with the mode. The exciter (303) produces a modulated signal that transitions from one mode to another without delay.
