Abstract: A limited-function, low-power wakeup receiver is based on frequency shift keying (FSK), avoiding the inherent problems of AM demodulation such as non-linearity of the amplitude detector. The FSK detector is easily realized in the digital domain. Due to the time discrete nature of FSK signals, the detector has a periodic response in frequency, allowing the signal to be demodulated at different offsets from the center frequency. The relaxed accuracy demands on the local oscillator frequency avoid the need for a power-hungry phase locked loop (PLL) circuit. To avoid potential loss if a signal coincides with one of the regular sensitivity nulls, the network at least occasionally transmits an FSK wakeup signal at a slightly shifted frequency, so at least one of the FSK wakeup signals will be received. Transmitting multiple frequency-shifted signals improves the likelihood of reception.
