Abstract: Transceiver frequency and optionally power level are allocated to a radio personal communications system which includes a base station connected to a wire telephone network and a cellular terminal operating within a region of a wide area cellular network to minimize interference between communications over the wide area cellular network and communications between the base station and the cellular terminal. The same cellular terminal may thus be used to communicate over the lower cost wire network when within range of the base station and over the wide area cellular network otherwise. The frequency for communications between the cellular terminal and the base station are optionally assigned by the operator of the wide area cellular network so appropriate frequencies and power levels can be assigned for base stations, to minimize same channel interference with the wide area cellular network.

Abstract: A method and system for the adaptive allocation of channels within a radio communication system, specifically a cellular network, is presented. The allocation method takes advantage of measurements made by the mobile radiotelephone and allocates channels based on the carrier to interference ratio. Using adaptive power control, consideration is given to maintaining an acceptable carrier to interference ratio while at the same time minimizing transmit power. Exemplary embodiments consider independent allocation of the uplink and downlink as well as independent determination of the uplink and downlink power levels. Other exemplary embodiments also give consideration to an efficient method for slot allocation in a TDMA communication system.

Abstract: In a digital data receiver (80) for demodulating a direct sequence spread spectrum differential phase shift keyed data signal, the signal is applied to the input transducer (140) of a SAW device (100) which has first and second output transducers (142, 144) spaced apart on the SAW substrate (130) so as to produce first and second output signals on output lines (102, 104), which are relatively delayed by a time corresponding to a symbol period. The output transducers are of identical construction and are matched to the spread spectrum code utilized in the data signal. Thus, a single SAW device (100) effects both correlation and delay. The output signals on the output lines (102, 104) are processed by a circuit including multipliers (106, 110) and a phase shifter (108) to produce output data signals representing the received data.
