    摘要: A diversity receiver that receives diverse modulated signals may produce a usable signal from the received modulated signals in the following manner. Two modulated signals, each including a desired component and an undesired component, are received by the diversity receiver, wherein each desired component includes an originally transmitted signal and each undesired component includes noise and interference. The diversity receiver estimates each desired and undesired component and produces the usable signal based on the estimated desired components and the estimated undesired components.

    摘要: To compensate the audio distortion resulting from amplitude and phase imbalance in the quadrature oscillator (103) and mixers (105, 115) in zero-IF downconverters (203), a balancing action is required. An apparatus for distortion compensation compensates for the amplitude and phase imbalance to reduce audio distortion. This is accomplished by determining (309) two gain values, which are combined (217, 227, 229) with the in-phase and quadrature components of the zero-IF downconverter (203) to compensate for the imbalance.

    摘要: A wireless communication system (100) that includes a plurality of base sites (101-103) employs a method and apparatus for determining a location of a communication unit (107) in the system. Upon transmission of an information signal (109) by the communication unit, each of the base sites receives the transmitted information signal. A serving base site (e.g., 103) determines a stream of information symbols from the information signal, derives timing information based on the information signal and the stream of information symbols, and conveys the stream of information symbols preferably to at least two non-serving base sites (101-102). The non-serving base sites determine respective timing information based on the information signal received from the communication unit and the stream of information symbols received from the serving base site. The location of the communication unit is then determined by either a base site or a stand-alone processing device (105) based on the serving base site's and non-serving base site's timing information.

    摘要: In a diversity reception communication system (200), a method is provided for recovering data symbols (213) from a transmitted signal. Multiple signals representing the transmitted signal are received via corresponding multiple reception paths (201, 202). For each reception path, values are determined for noise (206), channel quality (207), and for a weighting factor (209) as a function of the channel quality. The signals are processed using diversity combining (212) which includes the weighting factor (209) for each reception path, to provide a resultant signal that more likely represents the transmitted signal than any of the received signals alone. The data symbols (213) are recovered from the resultant signal.

    摘要: A diversity receiver that receives modulated signals may determine signal usability of the received signals in the following manner. A modulated signal that includes a desired component and an undesired component is received in each receiver branch of the diversity receiver, wherein the desired component includes an originally transmitted signal and the undesired component includes noise and interference. Each receiver branch estimates the desired and undesired components and processes the modulated signal with a channel gain/phase estimator, a complex conjugator, and a complex mixer to produce a complex output. The complex output of each receiver branch is derived independently of the undesired component and combined to produce a diversity resultant. The diversity receiver estimates the signal usability of the diversity resultant based on the estimated desired components and the estimated undesired components.

    摘要: A digital radio receiver is described. The digital receiver of the present invention contemplates a digital radio receiver which operates on a received analog signal which has been converted to a digital form after preselection at the output of the antenna. The digital receiver of the present invention comprises a preselector, a high-speed analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, a digitally implemented intermediate-frequency (IF) selectivity section having an output signal at substantially baseband frequencies, and digital signal processor (DSP) circuit performing demodulation and audio filtering. The radio architecture of the present invention is programmably adaptable to virtually every known modulation scheme and is particularly suitable for implementation on integrated circuits.

    摘要: An improved method of doppler searching in a digital GPS receiver is described. According to the principles of the present invention, an N-point fourier transform is performed on samples of a down converted GPS signal representing the entire range of Doppler-shifted GPS carrier frequencies. The magnitude of the square of each of the output samples is calculated to produce N power quantities, corresponding to N search frequencies. The power quantities for each of the N search frequencies are then summed to produce N quantities proportional to average power. The maximum of the N-power quantities indicates the presence of the corresponding GPS signal.
