  • Patent number: 5544198
    Abstract: The method pertains to wireless transmission in the common-wave operation. For the operation of common-wave networks, it is required that the modulation contents of the transmission frequencies (1 . . . m) transmitted by the individual transmitting stations are identical. However, in order to enable a station or regional identification, one or more regionally differing additional carrier frequencies (n-3 . . . n) are transmitted, whose reception permits the selection of specific regionally related news or messages in the receiver. The demand of additional carrier frequencies may be reduced to four individual frequencies or frequency groups, if these additional carriers are modulated.

  • Patent number: 5521976
    Abstract: The device is a subscriber apparatus with one or more modules interconnected by a bi-directional bus which communicates both digital and analog signals. The module perform different telecommunication functions, such as telephone, telefax, etc. Each module includes storage with a module-specific control program. The control unit may control the whole subscriber apparatus. When a new module is connected to the bus, an identification is assigned thereto which further determines the start address for the module-specific control program.

  • Patent number: 5493721
    Abstract: The apparatus includes a mobile receiver for digital audio broadcasting. The transmission process is substantially entirely digital and a whole frequency range is used for the terrestrial transmission. The apparatus includes a receiver for a digital radio signal, particularly wherein the filter coefficient is changeable by a control circuit which generates a first value for the filter coefficient to get the real signal component and thereafter generates a second value for the imaginary signal component, whereby with the switching over of the first and second values for the filter coefficient a simultaneous downsampling of the digital signal is performed.

  • Patent number: 5267233
    Abstract: The apparatus is a radio set wherein a first auxiliary oscillator is provided in the transmission device which is connected to the transmission mixer and during the reception operation, the transmission path between the transmission mixer and the main local oscillator is interrupted by a switch device. The switching off of the transmission frequency can also be achieved in that the transmission path between the transmission mixer and the first auxiliary oscillator is interrupted or between the transmission mixer and the power supply device of the radio set.
