  • Method of processing received digitized signals and mobile radio communication terminal device
    Patent number: 9407490
    Abstract: A method of processing signals may include receiving a first signal being modulated on a first carrier frequency in a predefined frequency band; measuring a signal level of a received second signal at a frequency higher than the first carrier frequency; and measuring a signal level of a received third signal at a frequency being lower than the first carrier frequency. The method may further include selecting an intermediate mixing carrier frequency from a plurality of intermediate mixing carrier frequencies for processing at least a portion of the received first signal based on the signal level of the second signal and the signal level of the third signal. The method may additionally include performing intermediate frequency reception of at least a portion of the received first signal using the selected intermediate mixing carrier frequency.

  • Systems and methods for tracking elapsed time
    Patent number: 9317059
    Abstract: A system utilizing time tracking is disclosed. The system includes a real time clock, a time component, and a controller. The real time clock is configured to track time. The time component is configured to measure a time value without an additional power source. The controller is configured to determine an elapsed time using the time value and calibration information and to update the real time clock using the elapsed time in a restart mode.
