Cordless telephone arranged for operating with multiple portable units in a frequency hopping system
Patent number: 6091758Abstract: A cordless telephone is arranged for operation in a frequency hopping system includes an arrangement which achieves optimum utilization of multiple cordless telephone portable units by permitting these units to simultaneously access a common base unit. A physical layer of an air interface is provided by a two channel time division multiple access protocol for supporting a two channel multiple access system for the portable units. These two channels are considered as virtual channels and not dedicated to any particular telephone line, as in the case of two line telephone products. Nor are these two channels dedicated to any particular portable unit, but rather they are available for use by any portable unit in the telephone. A signaling layer of the air interface is provided for supporting the two channel multiple access system. Two types of subframes, acquisition and traffic, are illustratively provided in the air interface for the cordless telephone.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 1997Date of Patent: July 18, 2000Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Joseph L.

Patent number: 5946360Abstract: The along and perpendicular rails of a received signal (e.g., modulated using multi-phase shift keying) are rotated to compensate for frequency offsets between the carrier frequency of the received signal and the reference frequency of the local oscillator. The rotation angles are updated, based on the rotated along rail, during dotting sequences in the received signal. In one implementation, the dotting sequences are detected based on the rotated perpendicular rail. The beginnings of dotting sequences are detected by thresholding the average on the perpendicular rail, and the ends of dotting sequences are detected by analyzing the encoded data for non-dotting-sequence values. In a cordless phone application, different dotting sequences may be used to distinguish base-to-handset transmissions from handset-to-base transmissions.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 1997Date of Patent: August 31, 1999Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Isam M.

Patent number: 5748681Abstract: DC offset cancellation and timing recovery is provided in a homodyne receiver. The homodyne receiver demodulates an RF signal to produce a baseband signal. An initial offset correction module determines an initial DC offset of the baseband signal. An initial offset correction is applied to the baseband signal to provide an initial corrected baseband signal. Wherein, a dynamic DC offset correction module determines a dynamic DC offset. A dynamic DC offset correction is applied to the initial corrected baseband signal providing a dynamic corrected baseband signal. A timing signal is acquired from the baseband signal for synchronizing the receiver to a transmitter. A method for correcting DC offset of a baseband signal in a homodyne receiver is also described.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1995Date of Patent: May 5, 1998Assignee: Lucent Technologies IncInventors: Vittorio Comino, Gerard Joseph Foschini, Isam M.

Patent number: 5572168Abstract: A frequency synthesizer circuit for the front end of an RF system. The frequency synthesizer uses two pulse-swallow phase-locked loops in a synthesizer architecture that produces an output frequency that is a function of the two reference frequencies used as inputs into the two phase-locked loops. As a result, the frequency synthesizer can be incremented in steps equal to the differential of the reference frequencies of the two phase-locked loops, while the frequency outputs of each of the phase-locked loops can be incremented in much larger steps. This enables the two phase-locked loops to employ relatively large bandwidths, thereby achieving a faster signal lock as well as a better suppression of the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) phase noise in each loop. The use of a dual loop synthesizer architecture allows for feedback correction of the VCO phase noise outside the loop bandwidth.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 1995Date of Patent: November 5, 1996Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventor: Sanjay Kasturia

Patent number: 5394116Abstract: A ring oscillator has a plurality of oscillator outputs, each of which carries an oscillating signal of a given frequency and thus repetition period but with a phase shift of a predetermined fraction of the repetition period from any one of the oscillator outputs to a next oscillator output in a predetermined repetitive sequence. The inputs of a selector are each connected to a respective one of the oscillator outputs. The selector includes a number of individually actuatable selector switches that are so actuated as to establish a connection between the selector output and only any selected one of the selector inputs at any time. The actuation is accomplished in a first mode, in which the selector switches maintain the connection, or in a second mode in which the selector switches intermittently index the connection in the predetermined repetitive sequence among the selector inputs.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 1993Date of Patent: February 28, 1995Assignee: AT&T Corp.Inventor: Sanjay Kasturia
