摘要： A frequency synthesizer within an FM receiver employs a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) to generate a Local Oscillator (LO) signal. The LO signal is supplied to a mixer. The FM receiver also includes jammer detection functionality. If no jammer is detected, then the loop bandwidth of the PLL is set to have a relatively high value, thereby favoring suppression of in-band residual FM. If a jammer is detected, then the loop bandwidth of the PLL is set to have a relatively low value, thereby favoring suppression of out-of-band SSB phase noise. By adaptively changing loop bandwidth depending on whether a jammer is detected, performance requirements on sub-circuits within the PLL can be relaxed while still satisfying in-band residual FM and out-of-band SSB phase noise requirements. By allowing the VCO of the PLL to generate more phase noise due to the adaptive changing of loop bandwidth, VCO power consumption can be reduced.
摘要翻译： FM接收机内的频率合成器采用锁相环（PLL）来产生本地振荡器（LO）信号。 LO信号提供给混频器。 FM接收机还包括干扰检测功能。如果没有检测到干扰，则PLL的环路带宽被设置为具有相对较高的值，从而有利于抑制带内剩余FM。如果检测到干扰，则将PLL的环路带宽设置为具有相对较低的值，从而有利于抑制带外SSB相位噪声。通过根据是否检测到干扰信号来自适应地改变环路带宽，可以放宽PLL内的子电路的性能要求，同时仍然满足带内剩余FM和带外SSB相位噪声要求。通过允许PLL的VCO由于环路带宽的自适应变化而产生更多的相位噪声，可以降低VCO的功耗。

摘要： An improved adaptive three tap transversal equalizer for partial-response signaling. The invention reduces the complexity of the hardware, as well as reducing the sensitivity of the equalizer to gain and timing errors. The present invention employs an algorithm based on sample values around zero. The resulting decrease in average magnitude of the error results in decreased sensitivity to gain errors. The algorithm of the present invention improves cancellation of sample timing errors. In the present invention, the coefficient of an adaptive cosine equalizer is updated by integration of a stochastic gradient. To calculate the gradient, the product of the quantized output from the previous sample and the output from the present sample is summed together with the product of the output from the previous sample and the quantized output from the present sample. In addition, the equalizer output is masked such that values quantizing to non-zero values are discarded in the update algorithm. In systems employing separate adaptive loops for gain control, timing recovery and equalization, the amount of undesired loop interaction is much reduced from that of prior art methods.

摘要： The present invention describes an improved RLL channel utilizing a closed-loop clock recovery scheme and a simplified decoding algorithm. (1,7) run-length-limited (RLL) code is used to reduce the magnetic nonlinearity problem posed by prior art PRML systems. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the analog data signal amplified, filtered and equalized to approximate an ideal waveform. The signal is then sampled and decoded into binary data. The clock recovery circuit is designed to sample the analog data such that the signal peak lies centered between consecutive sample points. It is thus made possible for the phase error to be extracted from a direct comparison of neighboring sample values. The phase error is then used to adjust the clock signal for the following samples. In the decoding algorithm of the present invention, by making useful approximations, the complexity of the decision functions is reduced, along with the number of required look-ahead samples. The reduction in look-ahead samples reduces the system's sensitivity to misequalization.

The first filter operates as part of a first oscillator in a first mode and filters a first input signal and provides a first output signal in a second mode. The second filter operates as part of a second oscillator in the first mode and filters a second input signal and provides a second output signal in the second mode. The bandwidth control circuit adjusts the bandwidth of the first and second filters in the first mode, e.g., adjusts the oscillation frequency of each oscillator to obtain a target bandwidth for an associated filter. The apparatus may further include first and second gain control circuits. Each gain control circuit may vary the amplitude of an oscillator signal from an associated oscillator and/or set a gain of an associated filter in the first mode.

摘要： An active analog filter (700, 1000) having a MOS capacitor device (730, 1030) with improved linearity is proposed. In an exemplary embodiment, dc bias voltage sources (755, 745) alter the capacitance of MOS varactors (740, 750) connected in anti parallel so that the total capacitance of the MOS capacitor device remains constant or within a range over the voltage range of the filter and the filter linearity is set. In a further exemplary embodiment the output stage (1070) of the operational amplifier circuit (1020) of the active analog filter (1000) is modified so that the dc bias voltage is provided by resistors (1055, 1045) connected to a current source (1060) already existing in the filter. Thus the linearity is set and the die area is significantly reduced.

摘要： A VCO (for example, in an FM receiver) includes an LC resonant tank. The LC resonant tank includes a coarse tuning capacitor bank and a fine tuning capacitor bank. The coarse tuning capacitor bank contains a plurality of digitally controlled coarse tuning capacitor elements, each providing a first capacitance value when active. The fine tuning capacitor bank contains a plurality of digitally controlled fine tuning capacitor elements, each providing a second capacitance value when active. To address the practical problem of capacitor mismatch, capacitance overlap throughout the VCO tuning range is created by selecting the first and second capacitance values such that the capacitance value of the fine capacitor bank is greater than the first capacitance value when all of the digitally controlled fine tuning capacitor elements of the fine capacitor bank are active.

摘要： An FM radio with a wide frequency range operates in a cell phone without interfering with the VCO of the RF transceiver. The FM transceiver generates a VCO signal whose frequency varies by less than ±7% from the midpoint of a narrow first range. A synthesizer signal is generated by dividing the VCO frequency by a first divisor such that the synthesizer frequency varies over a lower frequency second range. The VCO frequency is also divided by a second divisor such that the synthesizer frequency varies over a third range. The upper limit of the second range falls at the lower limit of the third range. The lower limit of the second range is 85.5 MHz and the upper limit of the third range is 108.0 MHz. By also using a third divisor, a synthesizer signal with a range of 76-108 MHz is generated from the narrow first frequency range.
