    • A method and apparatus for compensating fading and interference in a radio signal. A plurality of pilot symbols are appended to a plurality of data symbols to form successive frames that are modulated at a transmitter. The transmitted modulated signal is subject to loss of data due to simple fading and multi-path and simulcast interference. The received signals are demodulated by a receiver and processed to provide a data signal comprising the data symbols and a pilot signal comprising the pilot symbols. The data signal is delayed for sufficient time to enable channel impulse response estimates to be made of successive blocks of pilot symbols, preferably using pilot symbol blocks that both precede and follow the data symbols in the frame being processed. The channel impulse response estimates for blocks of pilot symbols are buffered and used by an interpolator to determine an interpolated channel impulse response estimate for each data symbol as a function of both the pilot symbols and of predefined channel characteristics. The interpolated channel impulse response estimates are applied to successive data symbols in the delayed data signal, enabling the data to be decoded, compensating for fading and interference. Interpolation using predefined channel characteristics based on worst case conditions substantially improves the bit error rate (BER) for the data recovered, compared to the prior art.

    • A modem for use in a simulcast paging system includes a modulator (26) and a demodulator (30), both of which produce very low jitter, enabling the modem to be used at data rates well in excess of 1,200 baud. Both the modulator and the demodulator are implemented in software using a digital signal processor (DSP) (66). The modulator initially samples a non-return-to-zero (NRZ) input at a sample rate of 19.2 KHz, interpolates transitions between logic levels, and produces a frequency shift keyed (FSK) modulated signal at a center frequency different than that used for transmitting the modulated signal. Using an interpolation timer that responds to changes in logic level on the input, the modulator changes the frequency of the FSK modulated signal at the appropriate time with much greater accuracy than would be possible without interpolation. The FSK modulated signal is filtered to substantially attenuate frequencies outside a 3 KHz bandwidth, producing a filtered signal. By frequency shifting the filtered signal (either up or down) to a center frequency of approximately 1,700 Hz, interference between positive and negative frequencies is substantially eliminated. A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) (74) produces an analog FSK modulated signal. At a receiving modem (29), the demodulator digitizes the FSK modulated signal at a 19.2 KHz sample rate and shifts the digitized modulated signal to a center frequency of 0 Hz, producing a complex baseband comprising in-phase (real) and quadrature (imaginary) components. The DSP determines the instantaneous phase of the complex baseband signal, and from the time derivative of the instantaneous phase, determines its frequency. The instantaneous frequency is interpolated at eight times the major sample rate, producing an interpolated frequency signal so that changes in the sign of the interpolated frequency can be used to determine the logic level and zero crossing of the demodulated signal with greater resolution, substantially reducing jitter. Correlation of the demodulated signal at the data rate further reduces jitter.

    • A clock synchronization system for synchronizing the performance of a number of clocks (46) so that they run parallel with a reference clock is disclosed. Each clock of this synchronization system includes a counter (52) that indicates the current time and that is sequentially incremented by a counter advance signal applied thereto. A time counter controller (54) both initializes the counter and generates the clocking signal that controls the advancement of the counter. The time counter controller further monitors the time indicated by the counter and compares it to a reference-time signal received from a reference clock. Based on the comparison, the time counter controller selectively reinitializes the counter and adjusts the rate at which the clocking signal is applied to the counter so as to ensure that the counter advances at a rate equal to the rate at which the reference clock advances. In some versions of the invention, the comparison of the reference-time signal to the actual clock counter time is made at a maintenance operation point (58) remote from the clock. In these versions of the invention, the maintenance operation point reports the difference in the two times back to the time counter controller, which, in turn, makes the appropriate adjustments to the counter and to the clocking signal.
