    Abstract: A Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) receiver and demodulation method includes an analog and digital separation filter for filtering and separating a DRM-encoded signal and a non DRM-encoded signal from a composite RF signal received at the receiver. The DRM receiver includes a programmable downsampler and a programmable N-point Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to recover and demodulate the OFDM symbols in a received DRM-encoded RF signal. The received signal is digitally sampled at a rate operably integer downsampled to achieve a number N samples in the useful portion of the OFDM symbol for input to an N-point FFT, where N equal to a power of two. The downsampling rate and size (N-points) of the FFT depend on the DRM encoding and transmission parameters, notably the robustness mode and spectrum occupancy. The structure and operation of the receiver in this manner simplifies the design and reduces the required filter order of the analog and digital separation filter.

    Abstract: A micro-controller is connected between a hardware-based adaptive differential pulse code modulation (ADPCM) decoder and a read only memory (ROM) storing both micro-controller programming instructions and ADPCM encoded source file data. A micro-controller architecture implements time multiplexed ROM addressing driven by a two phase clock signal. In an instruction phase, a program counter supplies ROM address(es) for retrieving micro-controller programming instructions. In a decoder phase, an address counter supplies ROM address (es) for retrieving portions of the ADPCM encoded source file data. ADPCM encoded source file data extracted from the ROM in the decoder phase of the clock signal is delivered to the decoder for processing during the subsequent instruction phase of the clock signal. The selection between program counter and address counter supplied addresses for application to the ROM is made by a two phase clock signal driven multiplexer.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for estimating a carrier frequency offset (CFO) in a Digital Radio Mondiale receiver is provided. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) demodulation is performed on a received DRM signal to produce OFDM symbols. A cell characteristic in corresponding cells in the OFDM symbols is compared and a carrier index of a frequency pilot cell in the cells is identified based upon the compared cell characteristic. The CFO is estimated based on the identified carrier index of the frequency pilot cell. The ratio of values of the cell characteristic in corresponding cells may be calculated and the frequency pilot cell identified by identifying cells for which the cell characteristic is most nearly equal. The CFO may be estimated by comparing the identified carrier index with an expected carrier index of a frequency pilot cell.
