Description

[0001] APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REMOVING NOISE OF ANALOG RADIO [0002]

The present invention relates to a noise cancellation apparatus and method for an analog radio, and more particularly, to a digital radio apparatus and a method thereof for receiving and listening to an analog radio in a digital radio communication in an environment in which an analog radio and a digital radio are operated in the same frequency band. The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for removing a modem signal transmitted from a modem.

A radio is widely used in an operating environment where command and control are required, such as in the military or industry, due to the ability to make direct calls between terminals without having a separate system such as a base station for a call and to enable one to multi-party calls.

For example, Korean Patent Publication No. 2011-0032132, "Device for improving the quality of an analog radio," has developed around an analog radio technology. However, with the development of communication technology today, a digital radio is being developed and operated. In some environments such as the military, there are cases where an analog radio and a digital radio are operated together in the same band.

Typically, newly developed digital radios will support both analog radio and digital modes for compatibility with existing analog radios.

Therefore, there is no problem when the analog radio and the digital radio communicate in analog mode. However, in a digital mode communication between digital radio units, a conventional analog radio unit can not normally recover the signal transmitted from the digital radio unit, so that the user can listen to a noise sound unique to the digitally modulated signal. At this time, the reception sound that is heard by the user causes inconvenience to the user, that is, the analog radio operator.

Therefore, there is a need for a method for detecting and removing a digital radio transmission signal received by an analog radio when analog radio and digital radio are used in combination in the same frequency band.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus and method for removing a modem signal transmitted from a digital radiotelephone received and listened to by an analog radio during a digital radiocommunication period in an environment in which an analog radio and a digital radio are operated in the same frequency band .

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a noise elimination method for an analog radio,

Receiving an input signal from a voice connector of an analog transceiver in an environment in which an analog transceiver and a digital transceiver are operated in a mixed manner; Determining whether a modem signal transmitted from the digital radiotelephone is present in the input signal; And removing the input signal if a modem signal is present in the input signal.

In this case, the step of removing the input signal may further include removing the input signal and outputting the previously stored background noise to the user through the transmitter set or the speaker.

The method may further include outputting the input signal when the modem signal is not present in the input signal.

In this case, when the signal is transmitted through the analog transceiver, the signal input through the microphone is directly output through the signal line corresponding to the voice connector of the analog transceiver.

In this case, when the signal is transmitted through the analog transceiver, the method further includes the step of outputting the PTT signal through the PTT signal line located in the voice connector of the analog transceiver.

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention,

An analog-digital converter for converting an input signal input from a voice connector of the analog radio to digital data; A noise eliminator for analyzing the digital data to determine whether a modem signal transmitted from the digital transceiver exists in the input signal and to remove the input signal when the modem signal is present in the input signal; And a digital-analog converter for converting an output value of the noise removing unit into analog data and outputting the analog data.

In this case, the noise eliminator removes the input signal when a modem signal is present in the input signal, and outputs the previously stored background noise to the digital-analog converter.

In this case, the noise removing unit may output the input signal when the modem signal is not present in the input signal.

In this case, the digital-analog converter outputs the converted analog signal to a user through a transmitter or a speaker.

In this case, when a signal is transmitted through the analog transceiver, a signal inputted through a microphone is directly output through a signal line corresponding to a voice connector of the analog transceiver.

In this case, when the signal is transmitted through the analog transceiver, the PTT signal is directly output through the PTT signal line located in the voice connector of the analog transceiver.

According to the present invention, a noise cancellation apparatus and method for an analog radio are capable of receiving an analog radio user through a speaker or a handset during a digital radio communication in an environment in which an analog radio and a digital radio are operated in the same frequency band. The analog modulated signal is detected and removed, and the background noise is output, thereby improving the operability of the analog radio of a conventional analog radio user.

If there is a modem signal in the input signal received in step S610, the noise eliminator 300 for analog radio eliminates the input signal (S630). Next, in step S640, the noise eliminator 300 for analog radio eliminates the input signal as in step S630, and outputs the comfort noise to the user via the transmitter set or the speaker instead. Here, the background noise is stored in the noise canceller 300 for the analog radio.
