Abstract:
A method and electronic device for receiving information is provided. The method includes transmitting, by the electronic device, a scan time and an identification of the information to cause the identified information to be broadcast at the scan time; and scanning, by the electronic device, during the scan time to receive the information. The electronic device includes a transmitter configured to transmit a scan time and an identification of the information to cause the identified information to be broadcast at the scan time; and a scanner configured to scan during the scan time to receive the information.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method are provided for receiving a signal in a communication system supporting a Gaussian frequency shift keying (GFSK) modulation scheme. The method includes receiving the signal; and estimating a codeword vector by performing a signal detecting operation based on a GFSK-maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) scheme, which is based on a GFSK modulation scheme and an MLSE scheme, on the received signal. States of a Viterbi trellis that are used in the GFSK-MLSE scheme are determined based on the GFSK modulation scheme.
