Abstract:
A method for receiving a digital signal, comprising the steps of:transmitting the digital signal with a radio program on a transmitting frequency, the transmitting frequency being different than a receiving frequency of a receiver; within a read cycle of the receiver, temporarily switching the receiver, at predefined times from the receiving frequency to a further frequency; at a first temporary switchover of the receiver from the receiving frequency to the further frequency, maintaining the further frequency until a bit starting point of a bit of the digital signal detected; performing, for a second duration, each of further temporary switchovers from the receiving frequency to the further frequency during a first duration of each of successive bits of the digital signal, the second duration being shorter than the first duration; determining the predefined times for the further temporary switchovers from the bit starting point and the first duration of the successive bits of the digital signal; receiving the successive bits of the digital signal during the further temporary switchovers using the receiver; buffering the successive bits of the digital signal; and analyzing the successive bits of the digital signal in an analysis cycle.
