Abstract:
A method and system for direct mode operation (DMO) of a talkgroup enables device to device (D2D) DMO operation leveraged from a Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system. The method includes scanning at a radio receiver a defined radio frequency spectrum; receiving at the radio receiver in the defined radio frequency spectrum a wake-up signal; identifying a talkgroup identifier in the wake-up signal, wherein the talkgroup identifier corresponds to a talkgroup being monitored by the radio receiver; in response to identifying the talkgroup identifier, decoding code sequences included in the wake-up signal; identifying in at least one of the code sequences both a center frequency and a transmission bandwidth of the DMO transmission; and tuning the radio receiver to receive the DMO transmission at the center frequency and transmission bandwidth.
Abstract:
A device and method to determine incoming communications is provided. A device in communication an array of antenna devices determines respective quality metric weights for respective signal data representing respective signals received by the antenna devices. The device applies the respective quality metric weights to the respective signal data to determine total received signal data. The device determines, based on the total received signal data, that the array of the antenna devices has received an incoming communication.
