    摘要: A symbol synchronizer (10) for use in a communication device. The symbol synchronizer (10) comprises a sampling circuit (100) which samples the demodulated signal at a plurality of sampling events for each symbol period to generate three sample values at each sampling event. An eye pattern detector circuit (200) generates eye pattern characteristic information based on the three sample values, and outputs a symbol pulse in response to detecting eye pattern characteristic information consistent with a symbol center. A synchronization noise mask circuit (400) filters symbol pulses that occur during a predetermined period of time after a first symbol pulse is detected for each symbol period. A synchronization adjust circuit (500) generates a synchronization pulse during each symbol period at a particular instant of time during the symbol period based on a history of the occurrences of symbol pulses for a current symbol period and for prior symbol periods.

    摘要: A clock recovery circuit for recovering a symbol clock (226) includes a level decoder (210) for determining one of a plurality of received states of a demodulated signal (105) during each symbol period of the symbol clock (226). Each of the plurality of received states corresponds to one of at least two modulation levels. The level decoder (210) generates for each of the plurality of received states a sign signal (212) having transitions at central threshold transition times and a magnitude signal (211). An edge selector (220) determines selected central threshold transition times. A synchronizable clock (225) is synchronized by the selected central threshold transition times, resulting in a significant reduction of symbol clock (226) jitter.

    摘要: A selective call unit (800) comprising a receiver (100) and a processor (810) is used for decoding a 2-level radio signal. The processor (810) is adapted to convert in-phase and quadrature signals generated by the receiver (100) to a sequence of state transitions representative of the plurality of symbols. For each symbol in the plurality of symbols, the processor (810) counts the sequence of state transitions during a symbol period, and compares the recorded count to a predetermined threshold, thereby generating a comparison result. The processor (810) then calculates a bit decision threshold level based on an average of the comparison result for each symbol in the plurality of symbols. For each symbol in a plurality of subsequent symbols, the processor (810) then compares the bit decision threshold level to the sequence of state transitions counted during a symbol period to decode a digital logic level therefrom.
