  • Patent number: 6862313
    Abstract: A wireless transceiver comprises a digital to analog converter having an input for receiving a digital representation of a direct sequence spread spectrum signal and having an analog output. A filter has an input coupled to the analog output of the digital to analog converter. An adder has a first input coupled to the filtered output and a second input coupled to a loop control voltage generated by a phase lock loop. A VCO integrated into the phase lock loop has a control input coupled to the summed output. An RF output of the VCO produces a continuous phase frequency shift keyed spread spectrum signal in response to the digital representation of the direct sequence spread spectrums signal. A receiver converts received RF signal to baseband in-phase and quadrature that are in turn converted to digitized signals. A demodulator produces chip data that is despread using a matched filter.

  • Patent number: 6411646
    Abstract: A wireless transceiver comprises a digital to analog converter having an input for receiving a digital representation of a direct sequence spread spectrum signal and having an analog output. A bandpass or lowpass filter has an input coupled to the analog output of the digital to analog converter and has a filtered output. An adder has a first input coupled to the filtered output and a second input coupled to a loop control voltage generated by a phase lock loop. The adder produces a summed output. A VCO integrated into the phase lock loop has a control input coupled to the summed output. An RF output of the VCO produces a continuous phase frequency shift keyed spread spectrum signal in response to the digital representation of the direct sequence spread spectrums signal.
