Abstract: A protocol interface gateway connects a telecommunication system emulator to a communications network. The gateway receives signals from the network and sends signals to the network that are formatted in a network protocol. The gateway converts signals received from the network into instructions in emulator code, and sends the instructions in emulator code to the emulator for processing. The emulator executes code in blocks of application software utilized in a target telecommunications node. The gateway then receives the processed instructions in emulator code from the emulator, converts the processed instructions into signals formatted in the network protocol, and sends the signals to the communications network. The protocol interface gateway utilizes a UNIX socket that replaces Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layers 1 and 2 of the network protocol to send and receive the signals from the network.

Abstract: According to the invention, when seeking loop locking the control variable (S1) arriving from the loop filter (54) is not admitted as such to the oscillator's (55) control input, but it is attenuated so that it will vary within a small range at the middle of its range of variation. At the same time, the loop's output frequency (fVCO) is compared to the frequency of an external frequency source (53), which is sufficiently close to the nominal frequency of the input signal. When the regulating element finds that the oscillator's output frequency is not in a predetermined frequency window, it will add to or reduce the additional control (VCO Cntrl) which it supplies to the oscillator's control input. When the oscillator's (55) frequency has entered the frequency window, the additional control is frozen and the attenuation is removed from the control variable (S1) arriving from the loop's phase comparator. The loop will thus perform phase locking very quickly to the loop's input signal and, in addition, the locking takes place in the middle of the oscillator's range of regulation.
