Definitions
- an arrangement which enables suppression of clock overtones when the signal strength varies rapidly or when the amplitude varies rapidly and to a high extent.
- an arrangement which enables the handling of the fast variations in signal strength that are produced in the input signal in a TDMA (time division multiple access) system.
- TDMA time division multiple access
- a number of users share one and the same frequency, i.e. a number of users are assigned one time slot each.
- the filtering arrangement comprises a number of filtering means, each of which comprises a low pass filter or a bandpass filter for filtering of the input signal and signal adding means for subtracting the (low pass) filtered signal from the input signal.
- input signal is here meant the signal input to the filtering arrangement which is output from the phase locking means .
- the filtering means particularly include comparing means for comparing the absolute value of the input signal amplitude with a given threshold value and the filter is inactivated if the signal amplitude exceeds the given threshold value.
- the (low pass) filter is advantageously advanced stepwise if the amplitude of the received signal is below the threshold value.
- the (low pass) filter is a digital filter.
- the comparing means operates using hystheresis. In that way is avoided that, in a transition area, the signal modulation makes the filter repeatedly alternate between an integrating and a holding mode of operation.
- a low pass filter in combination with signal adding means is advantageously used if the amplitude of the input signal varies much and/or rapidly.
- the radio communication system comprises a TDMA access system in which a number of users share the same frequency, each user being assigned a different time slot.
- a TDMA system the variation in received signal strength between different users can vary a lot. This means that, when there is a change from a strong signal to a weak signal, the remaining imbalance from the strong signal will not have time to fade out before reception of the weak signal starts. This makes the reception of the weak signal poor or even impossible. This will in the following be further described under reference to Figs. 2a and 2b. If the signal in one time slot (each user is assigned a particular time slot) is strong, whereas signals of the other time slots are weak, is schematically illustrated in Fig. 2a which is a simplified illustration showing an input signal I comprising one
- TDMA-frame with three time slots per carrier frequency, time slots TS 1, 2 and 3, the signal in time slot 1 being strong.
- the lowpass filtered signal I will then be as in Fig. 2b.
- the remaining imbalance from the signal in time slot 1 will disturb time slot 2 if its level is not well below the noise floor. Through inactivating the filter for strong signals, the remaining disturbance will be prevented from being too high. If for example a threshold value of 20dB above the noise level is used, and the signal is suppressed 30dB in the filter, the disturbing signal will be eliminated whereas the "tail" will be about lOdB below the noise level and it will thus not disturb the weak signals, e.g. the signal from time' slot 2.
- the signal output from the low-pass filter 43 is only affected when the total amplitude is small and therefore a long time constant can be used in such a filter still preventing a strong input signal from creating any residues in the filter.
- FIG. 6 an arrangement 100 according to the invention comprising a locking arrangement 20 with two phase locking means 22,23 for locking the oscillating means and the digital clocking means in relation to the reference oscillator 21 and to each other and a filtering arrangement 40 as disclosed in Fig. 3 is illustrated.
- the reference oscillator 21 generates an input signal with the reference frequency I REF 20 .
- a channel selection is carried out through setting f 22 being the frequency of the local oscillator 23 and f M being the frequency of the input signal 1 ⁇ .
- the signal will then be converted to zero frequency in the mixer 25.
- An RF-filter 24 is implemented in the receiving arrangement in a conventional manner.
- ⁇ f is the bandwidth of the input signal I___ divided by two.
- the input signal I received n receiving arrangement 60 is a signal output from a locking arrangement, e.g. as disclosed in Fig. 6.
