    摘要: A base site circuit (38) for operating in a communication system (10) having a plurality of base sites capable of allocating a communication channel for use by a communication unit (16) in response to a communication channel request from the communication unit. The base site circuit includes a receiver (34) that operates in a low sensitivity mode when there are no communication channel requests received, and that operates in a high sensitivity mode which is activated by a control signal. The base site further includes a transmitter (34) which is activated by the control signal and a control circuit (32) coupled to both the receiver and the transmitter, for controlling the receiver and the transmitter. The control circuit (32) provides the control signal to the transmitter and to the receiver, in response to a communication channel request.

    摘要: The present invention comprises a method and apparatus for selecting one of at least two antennas (202, 204) in a communication unit (200) for use in a wireless communication system (100). A signal is received by a radio frequency receiver during a receiving period from one of the at least two antennas (202,204) currently selected by an antenna switch (206), the signal having a plurality of bits. The receiver is capable of determining the quality of the receive signal by determining if the incoming bits transition periods fall within a predetermined time window. If it is determined by the receiver that the quality of the receive signal is below a predetermined threshold the currently selected antenna (202 or 204) is switched. The currently selected antenna remains selected when the currently selected antenna has been selected within a predetermined amount of time.

    摘要: A base station allocates radio channels to radio telephone handsets in a second generation cordless telephone (CT2) communication systems by scanning each channel in a first band, and scanning each channel in a second band to measure an RSS level for each channel scanned. The base station scans the second band at a rate that is substantially faster than the rate at which it scans the first band. If a link request is received on a first channel within the first band, from a calling radio telephone, the base station determines whether the first channel has an RSS level above a predetermined threshold. If the RSS level of the first channel is above the threshold, and the calling radio telephone handset is capable of operating on the second band, the base station re-assigns a second channel, that is within the second band, to the calling radio telephone handset.

    摘要: A method for re-establishing a communication link that has been lost between a portable unit (406) and a fixed unit or base station (402) provides for a way of quickly re-establishing the lost communication link, on the previously used RF channel. The method is begun by transmitting a link re-establishment code word (900) using MUX 1 after determining that synchronization has been lost (502) for a predetermined period of time (504). This is followed by automatically switching the portable unit (406) from MUX 1 to MUX 3 communication protocol. Followed by re-establishing communication (re-establish synchronization) between the portable (406) and base station (402) in MUX 3 and switching the two communication devices (402 and 406) back to MUX 1 after the communication link has been re-established. The same steps can be followed by base site (402) if it had been the first to detect loss of the communication link.
