  • Patent number: 7280003
    Abstract: A signal modulation device comprises a delta-sigma modulator disposed for transforming an amplitude-modulation signal in baseband into a pulse signal. It also comprises a phase modulator receiving, at its input, analogue phase-modulation signals in baseband. The pulse signal is mixed with carrier signals upstream of the phase modulator. The modulation device is designed to form an input stage of a transmitter.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6161000
    Abstract: A transmit-receive system includes a phase-locked loop and a translation frequency loop. To bring about frequency hops, the frequencies in the two loops are varied with large increments in opposite directions. It is shown that the noise caused by the frequency division in the loops is thereby reduced.
