Abstract:
A microprocessor includes a memory, an input/output port and a switch controller. Transmission data, a spread code and an inverted code are stored in the memory. The switch controller generates a spread spectrum signal by calling up either of the spread code or the inverted code in accordance with a bit of the transmission data. A switch connected to the input/output port is switched on and off based on the spread spectrum signal. In addition, an antenna is connected to the input/output port via a coupler. An oscillation circuit includes a reference oscillator and a BPF and inputs a harmonic of a reference signal to the coupler as a carrier wave.

To actualize frequency synchronization with each of radio communication systems while suppressing increase in circuit scale of a user terminal in an environment in which the user terminal concurrently communicates with a plurality of radio communication systems with different frequencies, a radio base station of the present invention is a radio base station for forming a narrow-area cell to communicate with a user terminal in a radio communication system where the narrow-area cell is provided inside a wide-area cell, and has a carrier frequency synthesizer that generates a carrier frequency of the narrow-area cell based on a wide-area radio signal transmitted from a radio base station for forming the wide-area cell, and a sampling frequency synthesizer that generates a sampling frequency of a baseband signal of the narrow-area cell based on the wide-area radio signal.
Abstract:
A multi-point communications system is set forth herein. The communications system includes a transmitter for transmitting OFDM/DMT symbols over a predetermined number of bins across a transmission medium. The OFDM/DMT symbols are generated using at least one timing signal. At least one of the predetermined number of bins includes a pilot tone sub-symbol having a frequency corresponding to a clock signal. The communications system may also include a receiver for receiving the OFDM/DMT symbols via the transmission medium. The receiver demodulates the received symbols using at least one timing signal.
Abstract:
A system for bidirectional communication of digital data between a central unit and a remote unit wherein the need for tracking loops in the central unit has been eliminated. The central unit transmitter generates a master carrier and a master clock signal which are used to transmit downstream data to the remote units. The remote units recover the master carrier and master clock and synchronize local oscillators in each remote unit to these master carrier and master clock signals to generate reference carrier and clock signals for use by the remote unit receiver. These reference carrier and clock signals are also used by the remote unit transmitters to transmit upstream data to the central unit. The central unit receiver detects the phase difference between the reference carrier and clock signals from the remote units periodically and adjusts the phase of the master carrier and master clock signals for use by the central unit receiver to receive the upstream data.

The OFDM/DMT symbols are generated using at least one timing signal. At least one of the predetermined number of bins includes a pilot tone sub-symbol having a frequency corresponding to the clock signal. The communications system also includes a receiver for receiving the OFDM/DMT symbols from the transmission medium. The receiver demodulates the received symbols using at least one timing signal. The receiver has a first pilot tone search mode of operation in which the receiver adjusts its timing signal to scan the frequency range of the predetermined number of bins looking for the pilot tone sub-symbol and identifies the bin including the pilot tone sub-symbol. The receiver further has a subsequent second pilot tone acquisition mode in which the receiver adjusts the timing signal to receive the identified bin containing the pilot tone sub-symbol and measures phase differences between successive pilot tone sub-symbols to thereby perform a further adjustment of the timing signal so that the pilot tone sub-symbol is received within a frequency range sufficient for subsequent phase locked loop processing thereof.
