Granted: 2012-11-27
Abstract: One illustrative method of scanning a radio frequency (RF) band (e.g. 850 MHz band) for valid RF carrier signals of a wireless communication network (e.g. a GSM network) includes the steps of monitoring an RF channel to receive a candidate RF carrier signal; identifying whether the candidate RF carrier signal is a valid RF carrier signal of the wireless communication network by estimating a bandwidth of the candidate RF carrier signal and, if the estimated bandwidth is different from a predetermined bandwidth associated with valid RF carrier signals of the wireless communication network, identifying that the candidate RF signal is not a valid RF carrier signal of the wireless communication network; and repeating the acts of monitoring and identifying for a next RF channel of a plurality of RF channels associated with the wireless communication network. Preferably, the RF bandwidth estimation is performed together with a system signal detection process (e.g. FCCH detection). Advantageously, the time required to scan the RF band is reduced.

Granted: 2014-09-02
Abstract: In order to derive distance information according to the phase measuring principle, a periodic signal with at least two, in particular modulated, wavelengths .lambda.i are transmitted to two or more objects, their reflections are received again and the associated phases .phi.i are determined and decomposed into their individual object phases .phi.ij which are assigned to the J objects. In order to resolve phase ambiguities, an ambiguity interval in which at least one object is located is divided into cells (5) with a defined width, with each cell (5) being assigned a counter reading and a distance. The counter reading is incremented for the cells (5) which are assigned to a possible object distance, with the incrementation being carried out for a periodicity sequential variable and for all the phases. An absolute phase or a true object distance Dj from the at least two objects is determined from the distribution of the counter readings.
