  • Patent number: 6188447
    Abstract: A frequency diversity system for use in mobile reception of television and RF signals in the meter or decimeter wavelength, such as for use with a mobile television having a first receiver, an additional receiver and a control and analysis circuit. The additional receiver detects all incoming frequencies corresponding to a preset program and switches the main receiver to an incoming frequency of a higher quality. The receiver is able to identify the frequencies corresponding to the desired program through a transmitter identification code, which is added to each signal. This code is usually a VPS identification signal. The control and analysis circuit compares the incoming frequencies to the frequency of the signal transmitted by the television receiver to determine the highest quality signal. In order to accelerate the process, the system processes local position coordinates of the television so that the frequencies analyzed are only those expected within the coverage area of the television.
