Patent ID: 8081104

Claim:
An integrated circuit radio transceiver, comprising: circuitry and logic for detecting traditional short pulse radar signals; circuitry and logic for detecting non-traditional long pulse radar signals; circuitry and logic for inhibiting wireless transmissions upon detection of either a short pulse or a long pulse radar signal; and wherein the circuitry and logic for detecting the non-traditional long pulse radar signals comprises logic for: reading pulse information from each receive path first in first out buffer (FIFO) into groups of arrays, wherein each group of arrays includes a start time array, a pulse width array, and an FM value array; combining adjacent pulses in each array wherein, if the difference in start times between two adjacent pulses is less than a specified minimum spacing value, deleting the 2nd pulse and making the pulse width for the first pulse equal to the combined pulse width of the two original pulse widths; and setting an FM value equal to the sum of the FM values of the two original pulse widths of the adjacent pulses.
