  • Patent number: 9020559
    Abstract: A method for direct sampling of a plurality of radio bands, including a step of receiving a first radio band via a first interface and at least one additional radio band via at least one additional interface, the first radio band and the at least one additional radio band each being associated with different frequency ranges, and the first radio band or the at least one additional radio band being a DAB band. Furthermore, a selection signal is received via an interface, the selection signal indicating whether further processing of the first radio band and/or the at least one additional radio band takes place. Depending on the selection signal, the first radio band is sampled at a common sampling frequency and/or the at least one additional radio band is sampled at the common sampling frequency.

  • Patent number: 8787856
    Abstract: A system for receiving radio stations includes: at least one A/D converter in order to digitize the entire desired frequency band, for instance, an FM band, received via at least one antenna, and a demodulation unit for demodulating at least two signals of different transmitting frequencies of a radio station.

  • Patent number: 7346173
    Abstract: A method for influencing, e.g., for decreasing, the treble reproduction of an audio signal for reproduction obtained from a received signal, the received field strength and reception quality of the received signal being evaluated and, as a function thereof, the transfer function of at least one filter unit that can be impinged upon by the audio signal being controlled, as well as a circuit assemblage or arrangement for performing such a method for the modification of treble reproduction, so that, among other things, reproduction of the interference may always be reliably concealed and so that no noticeable and/or irritating “flutter” effects may occur. The method may include processing of the output signals of at least two reception interference detectors, and processing of the received field strength may be accomplished respectively in at least one first processing branch operating at a first, e.g.

  • Patent number: 6522750
    Abstract: A method for influencing the channel separation of an audio signal to be reproduced, obtained from a received radio signal, in a radio receiver, as well as a radio receiver for carrying out the method includes an auxiliary field strength signal derived from the received field strength of the received radio signal, and an auxiliary interference signal derived from signals indicating reception interference events, being combined with one another and with an auxiliary channel separation signal that is derived from a signal indicating the frequency of interference events, to yield a factor D which influences the stereo channel separation.
