    摘要: A mobile television receiver includes a TV tuner demodulating an incoming TV signal into a first video signal. A first horizontal sync signal is separated from the first video signal. Detection is made as to a quality of an image represented by the first video signal. A second horizontal sync signal is generated. Detection is made as to a difference between a phase of the first horizontal sync signal and a phase of the second horizontal sync signal. The phase of the second horizontal sync signal is controlled in response to the detected phase difference between the first horizontal sync signal and the second horizontal sync signal so that the second horizontal sync signal will be locked in phase and frequency to the first horizontal sync signal. A memory unit stores the first video signal in response to a memory control signal, and outputs the stored first video signal as a second video signal. The memory control signal is generated in response to the detected image quality. The second video signal is displayed in response to the second horizontal sync signal.

    摘要: In a first diversity receiving apparatus, during an antenna selection operation, one of antennas are selected such that each of antennas successively connected to a receiver for consecutive horizontal retrace periods but for horizontal scanning periods following the horizontal retrace period, the selected antenna showing a largest level at the previous antenna selection operation is connected to the receiver to detect levels derived from respective antennas. The antenna showing a largest level is selected at the current antenna selection operation to receive a radio wave television signal for the following M (a natural number) horizontal scanning cycles. M is changed in accordance with the phasing condition. For example, M is changed according to a speed of vehicle, a field intensity, a frequency of the received television signal, etc. The switching circuit and tuner may be provided doubly to prevent the affection of switching noise. A second apparatus determines the selected antenna by further detecting noise levels derived from the respective antennas during a vertical retrace period. A frequency of switching of antennas for determining the selected antenna is reduced to reduce a switching noise on the reproduced image or in the reproduced sound.

    摘要: An FSK signal receiver includes an amplifier which amplifies a first FSK signal at an adjustable gain. A frequency converter converts an output signal from the amplifier into a second FSK signal having a frequency lower than a frequency of the first FSK signal. A demodulator demodulates the second FSK signal into a baseband signal. A bit-state detector detects a bit state from the baseband signal in response to a threshold. A calculator calculates a number of times of occurrence of a fact that the baseband signal moves across the threshold during a given time. The gain of the amplifier is adjusted in response to the number of times which is calculated by the calculator.

    摘要: A first AFC apparatus receives and detects I and Q signals from a received first FSK signal with a local osc signal; demodulates the I and Q signals; F/V-converts I or/and Q signals into a voltage; compares it with a reference; and detects a frequency deviation direction of the local osc signal from the carrier signal according to the results of comparing and the demodulating. The local osc frequency is controlled by a given amount according to the result of the frequency deviation direction detection. A second AFC apparatus receives and detects I and Q signals using a first osc signal; FSK-modulates the I and Q signals with a second local osc signal having a lower frequency than the first local osc signal; and compares the frequency of the second FSK signal and the second local osc signal to supply a demodulation result. A frequency control for the first local osc signal is obtained by an averaging circuit averaging the modulation result. The F/V converter used in this apparatus has various modification and amplitude limiter may be provided as necessary. The averaging may be effected for a given data period of the first FSK signal. Power consumption can be reduced by selectively supplying a power with/without a holing circuit. FSK receivers use these automatic frequency control apparatus are also disclosed.

    摘要: Array elements 111-1 to 111-n of array antenna 101 are arranged at respective different heights from a ground so as not to overlap to each other in a vertical direction. Received frequency conversion section 102 converts a radio frequency signal received at each of the array elements 111-1 to 111-n of array antenna 101 into an intermediate frequency signal or baseband signal. A/D conversion section 103 converts an analog signal output from received frequency conversion section 102 into a digital signal using a proper sampling frequency. Direction estimating section 105 estimates directions of an arrival radio signal in a horizontal plane and vertical plane using received digital signals obtained in A/D conversion section 103. It is thereby possible to suppress increases in the number of array elements and computation amount, and to improve estimation accuracy in the vertical direction and resolution at the time a plurality of signals arrive.

    摘要: A direct-conversion receiver includes a direct-conversion demodulator. A first device detects a strength of a received signal. A clock signal generator outputs a clock signal in response to a reception start signal. The clock signal has a frequency corresponding to a symbol rate or higher. A second device samples an output signal of the demodulator at a timing determined by the clock signal. A third device samples an output signal of the first device at a timing determined by the clock signal. A fourth device stores "n" output signals of the second device which relate to a signal periodically transmitted from a transmitting station "n" times, wherein "n" denotes a natural number equal to 2 or greater. A fifth device stores "n" output signals of the third device which correspond in timing to the "n" output signals of the second device. A sixth device reads out signals from the fourth device, and reads out signals from the fifth device. The sixth device weights the signals read out from the fourth device in response to the signals read out from the fifth device. A seventh device combines output signals of the sixth device.
