Abstract: To increase the percentage of time that an input signal is actively monitored, a digital oscilloscope has an acquisition system (100) that includes an analog-to-digital converter (15), an acquisition memory (40), an acquisition rasterizer (50), and a raster acquisition memory (60). The rasterizer contains circuitry (52) for concurrently rasterizing and combining the results of several acquisitions together and with a stored composite raster image to produce a new composite raster image, while additional acquisition records are being created and stored in the acquisition memory. A display system (220) takes the composite raster images after they contain the results of many acquisitions and overlays these single-bit raster images on a multi-bit raster image that is then decremented to produce a simulated persistence effect. The number of new pixels turned on as a result of each acquisition can be counted during the combining process and used to stop acquisitions, signal the operator, or specially treat that particular acquisition when the number of new pixels created by a particular acquisition exceeds a predetermined value. Acquisition circuitry for multiple channels can be used on one channel to further increase the percentage of time that the signal is monitored.

Abstract: A system for servicing call establishment requests in a cellular telephone system on a priority basis is described. In this system, a base station receives a call establishment request either via an external MTSO (mobile telephone switch office) or PSTN (public telephone switch network), or internally from a call establishment request, broadcasted by a mobile unit associated with a first subscriber within the cell of interest. Both the base station and the mobile unit are located in a cell (i.e., the cell of interest) of the cellular telephone system. The base station determines whether it has a free channel to service the call establishment request. If the base station does not have a free channel to service the call establishment request, then a call processor determines a service priority level of the first subscriber. This service priority level is communicated to the base station. The base station processes the call establishment request in accordance with the service priority level of the first subscriber and service priority levels of second subscribers that are involved in telephone calls active in the cell.

Abstract: The recovery method comprises the steps of receiving a burst signal and evaluating an included pilot signal to generate a control signal for switching a first selector (GU1). The selector outputs either the burst signal or a delayed burst signal, that is delayed for a half bit period. The burst signal is doubled in frequency to provide a clock signal that is compared to a reference clock provided by the central station. The phase difference between the two signals generates a control voltage that is also used to switch the selector. The switching of the selector takes place during the reception of a preamble, and its output provides a signal whose phase is close to the reference clock signal.

Abstract: An IDFT section has a set of input terminals subjected to components of an information signal respectively. The IDFT section subjects the information signal to inverse discrete Fourier transform to convert the information signal into a pair of a first in-phase signal and a first quadrature signal while assignment of the components of the information signal to the input terminals is in a first state. A first power-related value of one of the first in-phase signal and the first quadrature signal is calculated. The first in-phase signal and the first quadrature signal are written into an output buffer memory when the calculated first power-related value does not exceed a predetermined reference value. The assignment of the components of the information signal to the input terminals is changed from the first state to a second state when the calculated first power-related value exceeds the predetermined reference value. The IDFT section subjects the information signal to inverse discrete Fourier transform to convert the information signal into a pair of a second in-phase signal and a second quadrature signal while the assignment of the components of the information signal to the input terminals is in the second state. A second power-related value of one of the second in-phase signal and the second quadrature signal is calculated.
