Abstract: CR-001425 IMPROVED RADIO RECEIVER HAVING AUTOMATIC BANDWIDTH CONTROL DURING TUNING In this radio receiver, the charge on a capacitor (14) controls the bandwidth of filters in the receiver's audio circuits. When tuning the radio, a bandwidth control circuit (13) forces this capacitor (14) to discharge, thereby forcing the audio path to be bandwidth restricted, thereby minimizing interstation noise reproduction.

Abstract: In the field of AM stereo detection, co-channel or adjacent channel interference may cause some distortion and side-to-side movement of a stereo signal source as well as false "stereo detect" signals in AM stereo receivers having phase locked loop (PLL) systems. The invention provides a filter receiving the incoming signal and passing only the frequencies resulting from said interference; a sensor measures the output of the filters and if this signal is above a given level, the monophonic mode is enabled, i.e., the pilot detector, the stereo presence indicator and the stereo mode switch are disenabled for a timed interval. A higher given level of interference is required for stereo disenablement when stereo transmission with pilot tone is already being received.

Abstract: An AM stereophonic pilot tone is detected using two signals derived from a received broadcast signal. One signal is proportional to the phase deviation and one is a two-level signal which is a function of the magnitude of the phase deviation. The detector controls activation of the visual indicator, muting of the stereo channel of mono/stereo mode switching with almost complete elimination of false detections during monophonic transmission and poor stereo transmission.

Abstract: There is disclosed a circuit (60) responsive to control signals applied thereto for alternatively sourcing and sinking current at an output which includes a first controlled current source (48) responsive to selective ones of the control signals for sourcing a current of a predetermined magnitude to the output of the circuit; a second controlled current source (50) responsive to other selective ones of the control signals for sinking a current of a predetermined magnitude from the output of the circuit; and a disabling circuit (42, 44) for respectively disabling said first and second controlled current sources whenever the voltage potential at the output of the circuit becomes greater or less than a predetermined value respectively.

Abstract: 2100447 9214299 PCTABS00014 An improved AM-FM combined stereo receiver (100) is provided having a single processor (155) for removing, in the FM mode, arc-tangent distortion, and in the AM mode, to process the phase term from arc-tangent L - R/1 + L + R to determine L - R/1 + L + R . Further, the radio includes a single discriminator circuit (161, 137, 139) wherein, in the FM mode, the discriminator tank circuit (137, 139) is used to convert frequency deviation to baseband audio and, in the AM mode, the discriminator tank circuit is used as the frequency-determining element for the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (161), the VCO being used to translate the intermediate frequency (IF) signal to baseband.

Abstract: In a stereophonic broadcasting receiver, a single indicator with two levels of illumination serves to provide indication of both accurate tuning and the presence of stereophonic signals. One signal or a combination of signals related to the tuning circuits of the receiver cause the indicator to be illuminated to a perceptible level. When, by use of a pilot tone detector, it is certain that stereophonic signals are being received, additional current is caused to flow through the indicator, raising the illumination to the maximum allowable level. The circuit has particular application to manually tuned receivers.

Abstract: In a radio having an in phase multiplier (A) for providing an in phase detected signal, a detection unit for receiving this signal and for determining whether this signal includes any negative polarity components which would indicate that a viable broadcast signal does not exist on the incoming frequency of interest. This detection unit can include a comparator (11) for comparing the incoming signal against a selected reference value. The invention can also include a signal quality evaluation unit (58) for providing either a digital or analog quality signal that can also effect the output and be used by appropriate processing circuitry to further refine the channel selection process.

Abstract: A cognitive radio (CR) device (208 and/or 218) avoids interference with an incumbent (207) receiver by determining maximum allowed transmit power levels of the CR device based on estimates of the incumbent signal level and transmit splatter levels of the CR device. The CR device (208 and/or 218) avoids interference with the incumbent receiver while transmitting with maximum transmit power levels.
