Abstract

Abstract A noise reducing circuit for reducing various noise in the output of a receiver. A noise attenuating circuit receives a demodulated signal and attenuates the noise in the demodulated signal in accordance with a control signal supplied thereto. A signal strength detecting circuit (12) outputs a field intensity signal indicative of a strength of an radio wave signal inputted to the receiver. An output noise level detecting circuit (13) outputs a noise level signal indicative of a noise level in the demodulated signal after the noise is attenuated. A fuzzy inferring circuit (14) performs fuzzy inference in accordance with fuzzy production rules given by membership functions for the field intensity signal and the noise level signal, respectively so as to output an inference output. A control signal generating circuit (15) produces the control signal on the basis of the inference output to control the noise attenuating circuit (11).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 164 words
A noise reducing circuit for reducing various noises in an output of a receiver, comprising: a noise attenuating circuit for attenuating in accordance with a control signal supplied thereto the noise in a demodulated signal supplied to said noise attenuating circuit, said noise attenuating circuit outputting the demodulated signal after the noise is attenuated; a signal strength detecting circuit for outputting a field intensity signal indicative of a strength of an radio wave signal inputted to the receiver; an output noise level detecting circuit for outputting a noise level signal indicative of a noise level in the demodulated signal after the noise is attenuated; a fuzzy inferring circuit for performing fuzzy inference in accordance with fuzzy production rules given by membership functions for said field intensity signal and said noise level signal, respectively so as to output an inference output; and a control signal generating circuit for producing said control signal on the basis of the inference output to control said noise attenuating circuit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 30 words
A noise reducing circuit according to Claim 1, wherein said control signal generating circuit produces said control signal on the basis of the inference output and said noise level signal.
