Abstract

Abstract In order to detect bursts transmitted in a manner that each burst is located within an allocated time slot within each consecutive frame, the bursts are labelled in accordance with a burst time plan signal to produce a burst discriminating signal. Thereafter, information of window position and burst condition and window mode, is stored, with respect to each burst, in respective memories using the burst discriminating signal. The stored data are renewed and read out from the memories also using the burst discriminating signal. Further, the burst discriminating signal is further used to change the window mode each predetermined frames.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 259 words
In an arrangement for detecting bursts in a communications system, which arrangement includes a correlation detector for producing a correlation signal by correlating an incoming signal with a predetermined pattern and further includes a window superimposer for generating a burst detection signal by superimposing the correlating signal on a window; first means for labelling the bursts according to burst time plan signal applied to the arrangement, said first means producing a burst discriminating signal; second means for storing a burst position signal indicating the position of each of the bursts according to said burst time plan signal such that each burst is specified by said burst discriminating signal; third means for storing burst information of each of the bursts by referring to a stored burst discriminating signal derived from said second means; fourth means for storing the window mode of each of the burst in accordance with said stored burst discriminating signal; fifth means for receiving said window mode and said burst information to determine the latest window mode by referring to said stored burst discriminating signal, said fifth means applying said latest window mode to said fourth means to renew the window mode stored therein; sixth means for generating a window at a position specified by said burst position signal applied from said second means using said window mode, said window being applied to said window superimposer; and seventh means supplied with said correlation signal and said window mode and said burst discriminating signal for generating information which is used to renew the content of said third means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 259 words
In an arrangement for detecting bursts in a communications system, which arrangement includes a correlation detector for producing a correlation signal by correlating an incoming signal with a predetermined pattern and further includes a window superimposer for generating a burst detection signal by superimposing the correlating signal on a window; first means for labelling the bursts according to burst time plan signal applied to the arrangement, said first means producing a burst discriminating signal; second means for storing a burst position signal indicating the position of each of the bursts according to said burst time plan signal such that each burst is specified by said burst discriminating signal; third means for storing burst information of each of the bursts by referring to a stored burst discriminating signal derived from said second means; fourth means for storing the window mode of each of the burst in accordance with said stored burst discriminating signal; fifth means for receiving said window mode and said burst information to determine the latest window mode by referring to said stored burst discriminating signal, said fifth means applying said latest window mode to said fourth means to renew the window mode stored therein; sixth means for generating a window at a position specified by said burst position signal applied from said second means using said window mode, said window being applied to said window superimposer; and seventh means supplied with said correlation signal and said window mode and said burst discriminating signal for generating information which is used to renew the content of said third means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 86 words
An arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein said first means takes the form of a microprocessor, and wherein said second means includes first and second memories, a first counter for counting up the number of frames, a second counter for counting up the number of multiframes, a first selector for selectively connecting one of said first means and said first counter to said first memory, and a second selector for selectively connecting one of said first means and said second counter to said second memory.
