Abstract: An apparatus for generating an oscillating reference signal at a reference frequency includes: (a) a light conveying element having a first end and a second end; the light conveying element conveying substantially all light received or reflected at one end to the other end; the light conveying element having a light transmission path intermediate the first end and the second end; the transmission path being related to the reference frequency; (b) a light transmitting element oriented to introduce light into the light conveying element at one end of the light conveying element; and (c) a light receiving element oriented to receive the transmitted light at one end of the light conveying element. The light conveying element, the light transmitting element and the light receiving element are implemented in a monolithic structure arranged on a single substrate.

Abstract: A selective call receiver unit (700) capable of reducing data distortion and improving simulcast reception includes a selective call receiver (20), a demodulator (30) coupled to the selective call receiver and a circuit (36 and 300) coupled to the demodulator for reducing data distortion received at a selective call receiver. The circuit includes a detector (350) for detecting a simulcast signal, a filter (351) for windowing the symbol edge area in the simulcast signal providing a windowed symbol edge area, and a clipping circuit (36) for clipping the windowed symbol edge area.

Abstract: Accelerated throughput of voice messages is accomplished by first filtering a normal 50-3000 Hz voice signal to a reduced bandwidth 350-1650 Hz (with loss of identifying features), the reduced signal then accelerated X3 and translated downward to bandwidth 50-3950 Hz for transmission. The receiver recovers the 350-1650 Hz signal.
