  • Publication number: 20230006704
    Abstract: When an OFDM radio system which uses a wide frequency band is interfered with by another narrow-band radio system, the interference can frequently be compensated but the transmission quality decreases drastically. Thus, narrow-band interferers in an OFDM radio system are determined according to the invention whereby none of the subscribers of the radio system transmits in a defined time slot or scan slot but all switch at the same time into the receiving mode. If there is interference (P1, P2), it is detected in this time slot. Countermeasures are taken individually in all the mobile devices, in particular the detection of the frequency and strength of the narrowband interference (P1, P2) and the configuration of a flexible notch filter (140) in the time range to the detected frequency and strength. The scanned received signal (RXS) is then filtered in the time range, i.e. before the FFT (120) and the OFDM channel estimation (130) by the correspondingly configured notch filter (140).

  • Patent number: 10979474
    Abstract: A method of low-latency audio transmission in a mobile communications network utilizing first data frames or subframes encoded according to a first format and shorter second data frames encoded in another second format for audio data. An audio transmission system includes a terminal, a base station, and an audio receiver. The terminal transmits via an uplink audio data that are encoded in the second format and other data that are encoded in the first format. The audio receiver directly receives the audio data transmitted via the uplink. The encoding/decoding of the audio data of one of the second data frames is influenced by other audio data of the same second data frame but not by audio data of another second data frame. Audio transmission from the terminal to the audio receiver is effected in the allocated time slots and frequencies in a waveform in conformity with the mobile communications network.

  • Patent number: 10609464
    Abstract: A wireless microphone and/or in-ear monitoring system having at least one first mobile device for wirelessly transmitting first audio signals. The system also has at least one base station for wirelessly receiving the first audio signals transmitted by the mobile device. The wireless transmission is based on an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing transmission (OFDM) during a time-division multiple access (TDMA) time slot. Each wireless microphone occupies at least one slot within 2 ms. Each of the TDMA frames has a plurality of slots which respectively have precisely one OFDM symbol. Accordingly, precisely one OFDM symbol is transmitted in each TDMA slot. During a time slot made available in accordance with the TDMA, a transmission is effected on the basis of an OFDM method. The TDMA frame length is so short as a latency of <4 ms is required for professional audio transmission, for example in the case of wireless microphone systems.

  • Patent number: 10499148
    Abstract: A wireless microphone and/or in-ear monitoring system having a clock master prescribing a wordclock, and a clock slave to be synchronized to the wordclock. Between the clock master and the clock slave is a digital wireless transmission link which digitally transmits synchronization signals and audio signals. The clock master has a clock reference prescribing a first sample clock, and a first timer. A first phase of the first clock signal is detected after expiry of the first timer and is wirelessly transmitted to the clock slave, which has a second timer. After expiry of the second timer, a second phase of the second clock signal of the clock slave is detected and compared to the wirelessly transmitted first phase. The difference between the first and second phases is used as an input value as a control unit in the clock slave. The control unit adjusts an adjustable sample clock of the clock slave to correspond to the first clock.
