Abstract: In one example, a communications circuit processes an amplitude modulated signal by using a first circuit having signal paths to process an amplitude modulated signal as represented by an in-phase component and by a quadrature component, and by using a second circuit to discern random noise pulses from the quadrature component of the amplitude modulated signal. In response, the second circuit generates an estimate of overall noise representing the random noise pulses in the amplitude modulated signal. In the above and more specific examples, the random noise pulses may appear as pulses which overlap with, in terms of time and bandwidth of frequency spectrum, information of the amplitude modulated signal, and the first and second circuits may be part of an RF radio receiving the amplitude modulated signal from an antenna.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for aligning cross-faded audio signals using beats. In an embodiment, a controller includes a cross-fade module having at least first and second audio inputs and an audio output port to provide an audio output signal to an external audio reproduction system. A control signal determines whether to provide the first or the second audio signal to the audio output, and the cross-fade module cross-fades the audio output signal from one audio signal to the other audio signal. A beat alignment module determines a delay between a first beat of the first audio signal and a second beat of the second audio signal, and a delay module delays either the first or the second audio signal to compensate for the delay into the cross-fade module.
