Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
166 words
A channel switching system in a digital radio communication system using at least two regular channel and two or more standby channels for transmitting a test signal therethrough in the standby condition, thereby permitting at least one of said regular channels to be synchronously switched to one of said standby channels, said channel switching system comprising at the receiving side of said digital communication system: control signal generator means operating so that when two or more standby channels are in standby condition it generates a control signal to designate them in turn, and when only one standby channel is in standby condition, it generates a control signal to designate the channel. synchronizing switching means for selectively outputting said test signal transmitted via each of said standby channels designated by said control signal, and standby channel monitoring means for detecting an output from said synchronizing switching means to monitor the communication quality of the standby channel placed in standby condition on the basis of a result detected.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
166 words
A channel switching system in a digital radio communication system using at least two regular channel and two or more standby channels for transmitting a test signal therethrough in the standby condition, thereby permitting at least one of said regular channels to be synchronously switched to one of said standby channels, said channel switching system comprising at the receiving side of said digital communication system: control signal generator means operating so that when two or more standby channels are in standby condition it generates a control signal to designate them in turn, and when only one standby channel is in standby condition, it generates a control signal to designate the channel. synchronizing switching means for selectively outputting said test signal transmitted via each of said standby channels designated by said control signal, and standby channel monitoring means for detecting an output from said synchronizing switching means to monitor the communication quality of the standby channel placed in standby condition on the basis of a result detected.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A channel switching system as set forth in claim 1, which further comprises delay adjusting means for compensating a fixed delay difference between said standby channels.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
41 words
A channel switching system as set forth in claim 1, which further comprises a frame synchronizing means provided on each of said regular channel and said standby channels at the input portion of said receiving side of said digital communication system.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
A channel switching system as set forth in claim 2, said delay adjusting means is provided between said synchronizing switching means and said frame synchronizing means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
70 words
A channel switching system according to claim 4 wherein said synchronizing switching means comprising a plurality of synchronizing switching circuits which receive outputs of all said frame synchronizing means provided on said standby channels and perform synchronizing switching of said received outputs of all said frame synchronizing means in accordance with said control signal designating the channels to output said test signal through respective standby channels in time series, respectively.
